"I think you're sweet." One of her legs hooks possessively over his. "I also think I'll be making some trips while you watch the baby."
Maybe they're both stubborn, but she's not helpless. It's true that since before Junior was born she's craved something a little closer to a normal life, but she'll be damned if she's regulated to stay-with-the-baby-and-take-it-easy status just because she's a mom now.
She's more than capable, and though his stubbornness is one of the things she likes so much about him, his macho streak and her need for independence apparently have to duke it out from time to time over stupid things.
"But I definitely think trying out the bathtub sounds good."
Maybe they should think about getting a baby monitor after all. It would let them take showers together and hear the baby over the running water if she starts crying.

And honestly, she misses the showers.
"You know I can keep a secret."
