Is your child a different child when DH gets home?
I'm home all day, every day, my 2 y/o was so good today (yes, he has his bad days too but today was a really good one). But, even on any good day my husband walks in the door and my son turns into this whiney up-his-butt crying baby. DH gives in to him a lot (like, he will pick him up and coddle him/console him thinking that is what he is supposed to do). It drives me NUTS. DS was an angel today. He threw his first temper tantrum as soon as DH got home and wouldn't let him play with his car keys. Another one when DH wouldn't give him his bath (I knew I should have done it before he got home  )
I get so frustrated but I also feel bad for DH b/c he has to deal with DS being like this the second he walks in the door.
I have a feeling its b/c DH always gives in to him when he complains and doesn't get his way, but I just don't know.
So my question is, is your child sometimes a totally different child when your husband gets home??

A little different situation here.
But when I babysit for 2 brothers...they are so good for me. As SOON as their mom walks in the door they are completely different kids. Their moods and attitude change within seconds.
So you're not alone

me!!!
my dd is 4 months old and is a perfect angel when my dh is home takes 2 looooong naps, never fusses! but when its me alone all heck breaks loose most dayssome days shes a perfect angel! i think its only because hes home 1 days and the other days hes only with her a few hours so i only notice it on the 1 day hes home and it can be totally ironic. we'll see when she gets older!

In a big sense yes....
The minute Daddy walks through the door I essentially drop off the face of the earth.
DH cant even take a poop in peace....

It sounds like your DS acts like that because he knows he has daddy wrapped around his little finger and he'll just get what he wants. Maybe talk to DH about the situation and try to get him to stop giving in?

YES!!!!
Logan for the most part is good with me and I don't get the kind of tantrums that he gives once DH gets home or on his days off.
Once DH comes home, forget it. DH spoils him and says he can't be stern with him or get mad at him as he says. Logan laughs when DH says not to do something, he thinks its a game and not DH disciplining him. He won't listen to me either when DH is around, he'll just go running to DH because he thinks he can get away with it.
