My hubby (who works 50 to 60 hours a week) really does a ton around our house!! Here is just a quick breakdown of what gets done:

Hubby:
Makes breakfast every day
Usually cooks lunch and dinner S & S's.
Does all the lawn work (with one exception)
Does a lot of the home repairs
Maintains all vehicles
Does his own laundry
Pays the one or two bills that aren't direct debts
He puts the 2 older boys to bed
Puts the garbage out on Mondays

Me:
Cooks lunch and dinner M-F.
Mows the grass on Wednesdays.
Washes the breakfast and lunch dishes.
Sweeps the kitchen after breakfast
Mops the kitchen
vaccums
Makes our bed and small kids beds
Meal plans
I put the baby to bed cause he still nurses.

Both:
Homework
School projects
Running kids here and there (although I usually do about 90% of this if it's before 6PM. HE usually does anything after 6PM.....like pick ups. Also when the two littlest ones were really small he did like 90% and I did like 10%)
Baths for the small kids

Oldest DD:
Does dinner dishes
Makes her own bed
Folds and puts away her laundry
Cleans the main bathroom
Puts herself to bed

DD #2:

Cleans the kids bathroom
Takes garbage to the cans (not out the street)
Puts her self to bed

Oldest DS:

picks up living room toys at end of day
Takes the recycling out and to the curb on Wednesdays

We leave most of our "deep cleaning" for the weekend and we all share that. We also all grocery shop in the weekend too.
