I'd like my husband to stick to my routines a little more. I've worked very hard to get our kids on some sort of schedule, so it's frustrating when I come home from work and the kids are jumping on the bed or watching TV or building a fort when they should get getting ready for bed.

I think, overall, he's the more "fun" parent and the kids have a blast with him when I'm not around, but he doesn't realize how much it throws off my day when they go to bed late ad sleep late the next morning.

I couldn't agree more with Kayris. Secondly, I'd like him to remember that I work 40 hours a week too. I went back to work because we can't afford for me to stay home. Therefore, my job/career is just as important as yours. I can't always be the one to stay home when someone is sick, the plumber is coming, etc.

Additionally, I am saddled with the majority of the daily chores and child related tasks since I do the pick up from daycare and get home first. I do all the cooking, cleaning, bathing of kids (unless he is actually home in time to help with that one), packing lunches, feeding animals, laundry, etc....once in awhile I would love for him to say "Why don't you take a nap, read for awhile, go get a pedicure (WHATEVER!!) and I'll watch everyone." I know he would do it if I asked him to but why do I have to ask? My husband is an amazing father and I will not deny him that. He just forgets to ask if he can help with anything....
