My husband and I consult each other before making household decsions. I think SWEETAKA said something about sharing the power. That's what we do and it's all good. Three and a half years and still going.
Well...I'm now married 6 years and three months AND have a toddler and this still holds true. Finances, housework, decsions are done jointly even though I feel I do much more housework than he does . One traditional role I have taken on is Mother. 85 - 90% of CJ's care is me and I'm fine with that. As long as I can have a night with the girls or a quiet night with him playing with his a dad and leaving Mommy alone...I'm cool. CJ is my husband's child but he's MY baby.
