We're often so darn tired that we'd rather catch up on sleep but we do make an effort a few times a week to connect, go out, and enjoy one another and (though less so) other adults. Our Soho Parenting counselor suggested to my husband and I to talk for 15 minutes everyday (at one time). It's sounds short but it's ample, and, of course, it's a start.

I remember a pivotal moment when my husband went into our baby daughter's room to calm her down. I stood at the door wincing while she cried and holding myself back from jumping in. Lo and behold, my husband got her to stop crying, albeit, eventually. Our two children are a bit older now. I don't agree with the way he handles everything, but I have also learned a lot from the approach my husband takes.
