    Woah, I should consider myself lucky! Our third is potentially days away from arriving too - yet DH just wants to play 'family man'! No mention of reno's or anything!

    I think your DH is definately nesting lol!!! At least he is making plans to carry out around the house and isn't planning an epic sporting adventure away from the house lol!!

    LOL at man nesting. Let him try hee hee and see how far he gets!! Mine thought that an appropriate leave period, (remembering he doesn't even live here with us) would be from the 9th of april til the 26th when I'm due the 19th... it is very likely I may not have even had the baby by then!! We have since sorted that out and he will now be back for 6 weeks.

    Oh totally male nesting but I have to say that I'm very very jealous!! I can't get DH to do anything!! Send your hubby my way and he can build my wardrobe shelves and do a spot of painting for me just as not to mess up your house
