[quote=Anonymous]Husband does 100% of the cooking. I hate cooking, he loves it, so this was an active decision. I (woman) tend to do all the coordination with workers in the house - like if we need an HVAC person or a plumber or whatever. It all started because I was free the day we did the home inspection, and I learned a lot, and so then I got the HVAC guy to fix the thing that was wrong from the home inspection, and then when there was another HVAC issue, I already had the contact, etc, etc, so I just kinda fell into that role. Works fine. Husband does more of the interaction with the nanny. They just super clicked right from jump, plus he's just naturally more "chatty" during the day while working (while I prefer a pretty non-social work day), plus he handles all the paperwork, payroll, etc. And for a while, he was doing the latter half of the morning with the baby and was the one in charge right at 5, so he was doing "pickup" and "drop-off" every day.
