Hellobee Boards

Haha. From the title, I thought you were going to self-nominate yourself since you are probably the only man on here. Now I see! Good idea on the awards, MrBee!

Yes!!! I totally vote my hubby!
1) When LO wakes in the middle of the night, hubby ALWAYS gets up with me to keep me company while I breastfeed even though he gets up for work at 6:15am.
2) He sits by me and rubs my legs/feet when I breastfeed.
3) LO is 3 months old and has NEVER asked me "What's for dinner?" I haven't cooked since the week before I gave birth!

This is too cool! Here are three of MANY reasons why Rob Sr. should be HelloBee's first Best Dad!

1) I was terrified of changing diapers and the circumcision wound, so I did not change a single diaper for the entire first month of RJ's life. Rob Sr. took care of every single one and every wound dressing.

2) When I was nursing, Rob Sr. woke up with me for every night feeding, even after he went back to work. Either he would feed RJ with a bottle while I pumped, or he would read to me while I nursed and then do internet research and blog with me if I couldn't fall back asleep. If RJ was crying, he'd take him into the walk-in closet and rock him to sleep so I could sleep. So basically, he got as little or less sleep than I did.

3) I was in labor for 24 hours and he was on his feet, standing by my bed for at least 18 of those hours. He refused to even sit in a chair next to me, even when the nurses begged him. The next day he was totally confused as to why the bottoms of his feet hurt so bad-- he could barely stand, and had totally forgotten about standing for the entire day.

1) My husband works the night shift so one of us can always be home with our daughter (since I work days). He always says it's worth it, especially when he goes to the park and sees he's the only dad there- most of the other kids are there with their play group or mom.

2) He always cooks food that is tasty and (usually) healthy for all of us.

3) He loves our daughter so much and was more excited about us trying for a second baby than I was! Also, it's super cute when my two year old and her dad play music together. He plays bass and she "plays" her little piano and sings.

1) Danny does the night time feeding(s) since the get go. Even though he had to work during the day.

2)Since Eli has the tendency to spit up a lot... after the night time feeding(s), he would stay up for another 30 minutes or so just to watch him closely... to make sure he can wipe off his spit ups and he can sleep comfortably. And he would stay in his nursery (we have a twin bed in there) for the rest of the night so if Eli fusses again, I won't get woken up.

3) Danny also does most of the cleaning around the house. So to sum it up. He is out at work 10 hours a day... when he gets home.. he takes care of the house and the baby so I can get my sleep

I've never had this much love and appreciation for my husband... until the birth of our son. It's just amazing see how much he can sacrifice for his family.

Ok, I think I'm gonna cast my vote for @Runsyellowlites' hubby. It's one thing to be an awesome father to your own blood but another to be an awesome father to someone else's
