alright. i can see both sides of this. It was Christmas and it was one present, but he asked you to wait and they are not really old enough to have known they were waiting a couple of extra days. You said it was your baby's first Christmas. He probably didn't want to miss a minute of it and you hurt him... He is entitled to have feelings and be a little upset.

Honey if that is all you have to worry about start jumping up and down know. Open a bottle of champagne!!! Considering the facts of life you are doing great LOL
1. There is no Santa
2. There might be a Bigfoot
3. All men cheat, almost all women cheat
4. Marriage ruins all relationships (moving in is the same)
5. Everyone lies (you even lie to yourself)
6. Life is not fair
Good luck and Happy Holidays. Email me
if you want to hear the truth. I don't lie.

He might just be stressed out that he's missing Christmas and all his frustrations inappropriately came out at you. No, you were absolutely not wrong. One gift is not a big deal at all. Christmas is a really exciting time for kids, and you made a good choice:)

No i don't think you were wrong but maybe you should have called him first and let him talk to the kids so he doesnt feel like your taking all the credit for giving them those presents.. But if he blew up on the phone i think he's over reacting... as long as they have more presents to open with their father than it should be fine

Heck no! Good Lord...what an a--hole! I am sure that he wished he was home, but he should cut the kids AND you some slack. He is being a putz! He should be man enough to let you enjoy the day in his absence and not take it out on you.
To him..."Merry freakin Christmas to you too...! Click!"

No you was not wrong why should the kids go with out just cause he had to leave. you still had more to open when he got back. he needs to grow up. sounds like a selfish little man . better you than me living with him cause it would not happen again if was me.

No, it is Christmas and they are kids. He should understand that. Its not like you let them open everything. He wasn't the one left to explain to the kids or to disappoint them.

of course he wanted to do it as a family. what does a 3yro and 7 mos. old know a/b the concept of days. if you knew this ahead of time maybe you shoudn't have agreed to waitng a few days. it was plain disobedience to your hibby and breaking an agreement. this also broke a trust. and trust is important in a marriage.

I guess he just felt like you and your kids were doing christmas without him, but you were not at all wrong. He is being immature.

I can understand that your husband wanted to share that special moment with you and the kids. but i think also he should understand why u did it for the kids.
