How involved did your husbands get into the adoption process? I am worried that my DH is not as involved as he should be, while I dont want to push him, I also want to make sure he is as invested in this as I am. I am the control freak in the family and have no problem keeping track of all the details and paperwork, I just sometimes feel like he should want to know a little more than he does.
Well last night he told me that he is ready to go ahead!!!

My husband is the control freak in our family. He was the one who kept track of all the details & paperwork. But when it came to actually taking care of our daughter, he couldn't handle it. lol. I think he was just so overwhelmed by the whole process. It's easier handling paperwork than a newborn. lol.

He had a hard time in the beginning. It's a hard adjustment going from one child (we also have a 7 year old son). to adding a second. But he got used to it after awhile.

Although he is an awesome father, he doesn't get very involved with diapering, or giving baths. But he is certainly a great noodle maker!

My children still come to me as their first choice. I am the one they call out to when they are hurt, hungry, lonely, bored, etc. They love their daddy. But it's MOMMY who is currently #1!
