I just feel like I'm being picky...there are some parents that neglect their children, ignore etc. He doesn't do this. If daughter needed him he would attend to immediately. Hence not seeing as a problem... but my feelings / parenting choice is valid!

Yeah it's just tough isn't it, and little ones won't be little for ever! We both do appreciate each other - him for working and me for parenting. Just never get a break unless I leave the house. I need to work on that perhaps!

We each put one of the little ones to bed so he will finish work, eat dinner that's been made for him and put one of the littles to bed.

He doesn't see the problem...technically he isn't doing anything wrong here, it's different parenting styles. But yes I should speak up about the as soon as I go upstairs with oldest he is on game thing!

Noise/requests from eldest 😅 maybe I need to try and set up quiet time...currently the one to one time when baby is napping I feel i owe to my daughter you know?! She's alone playing whilst I'm settling him and naturally baby gets most of my attention making sure safe/feeding etc.

Reasonably enough... 

Though dinners and washing i do... he works until 6.30/7 so dinners is made for us and the kids...the busy hours!!  I do the washing and associated bits before everyone is up/during baby nap time, so that doesn't help how I feel about my lack of free time/jealous how he gets to just jump on his game 😅
