Well this story has also gotten my attention. It’s a simple take on husband and wife Slice of life fun. However it’s written well with strong enough characterisation and descriptive language that makes it special in its own way. I think it’s a little small to give a proper star review, but I’m honestly loving this a lot. Hence My one criticism would be that there isnt enough of it… which if, let’s be real, is the only primary criticism then your doing a great job.
Would love some more tags added in tho.

Don't worry, there's more where that came from. My release schedule may be a bit erratic because I do not have a steady rate of output.
While some of these large overarching story arcs are enjoyable taken as a whole, and I'm actually brainstorming on a chronicle I'd like to put to paper on this site, Slice of life allows you to just jump in with little prior investment. Doorstoppers like "Deliverance" by Kardo tend to suck away hours of the day because you need to read the whole dang thing to nail down all the plotpoints (and bookmark where some of the more ... scientifically informative scenes are). Sooner or later, you're going to bed at 3am and there's work tomorrow!
TL;DR, slice of life allows proper scientific research in a 15 minute timeframe.
I might have to tag these chapters more clearly, so people can jump to the relevant parts of my research paper and extract all the good data they need for their PhDs. You tend to not have that luxury for a grand story arc because mystery is part of the enjoyment.

Really cool story. Love the dynamics and how it doesn’t fall into the cliche category the tiny having a kink related to stink but rather that he simply learned to live with it. Would really like to see some kind of prequel chapter where he’s still learning on doing that
Author's Response:
I did think of a prequel chapter on how they first met, perhaps a honeymoon story would fit the bill nicely as Andrew is transformed from an intolerant neat-freak, to a tolerant neat-freak.

Very sweet relationship
Author's Response:
Hopefully not sickly sweet. And a bit salty as well.

I'm really enjoying the dynamic between husband and wife in this story. It's just wholesome! I'm eager to see more of them. The only gripe I have is that there is very little character development. I feel like it would help to explore a little more about them as people after this arc. Maybe talk about how they met or their future plans since it seems a little job centric right now. That's just me though, feel free to do whatever you want, the story is pretty entertaining as is. Keep up the good work!
Author's Response:
I was planning on keeping this rather episodic, and slice-of-life, so people can dive right in and enjoy their preferred chapter. That being said, I have given consideration for some rather loose story arcs. There's been some brainstorming about how both Andrew and Caitlin met, but I was unsure if I would devote the effort to commit that to paper, since there are other things I'd like to write about as well. However, seeing this review, I just might be so inclined to do just that.
Thanks for the review, and glad you enjoyed it.

Boy am I glad you decide to pick back up this story! I have been rereading that first chapter ever since it was posted and hoping you’d continue! A slice of life with this couple sounds amazing and I’m so excited to see where it goes next!
Author's Response:
Glad to hear you liked the first chapter. I've got the second part of "Putting her foot down" (Chapter 2) half-done, so there will be at least one more chapter on que. I've had ideas linger in my head for the longest time for several more, but fleshing those out tends to take up a lot of time.
Thanks for the kind review!

Oh wow, this story was quite a pleasant surprise. I absolutely loved the descriptions of the house and the atmosphere throughout the tale. But even more than that, the loving but playful dynamic between the characters. Which is exactly what I've always dreamed of in a different size relationship like this. Pretty darn jealous of that little guy and all the places he got to explore though, that's for sure. ^.^
