[quote=Anonymous]Yes, of course he does!

We each buy gifts for the kids - discuss the lists we've both come up with and then divvy up purchasing responsibilities. We each decorate the house (although he bears the brunt of carrying everything down and back up to the attic for the most part). I wrap more presents than he does generally because I really enjoy it, but this year he did almost half of them? I handle all presents for my family, he handles all presents for his family. I definitely bake more but he always helps clean up the kitchen. We probably cook about the same amount.

Before the holidays we talk about what we want to do during the month of December and then discuss how to make it work, i.e. who is doing what. Some things are more important to him, some are more important to me, some aren't important to either of us (so we either do them because they're important to our kids, for example, or we scrap them). Just like the rest of life, I wouldn't go through Christmas if more than half of it was going to be on me![/quote]
