My hubby has been away for the past 6.5 weeks finishing up his last class + preparing for the USMLE step 1 and its definitely been tough for our little family. This past week the kids were off school, so we headed up to Calgary to stay with cousins and little did the kids know, we would also be seeing Daddy!! 🙂 🙂 I picked him up Thursday at 1:20am  from the airport and it was so fun to see the kids smiles + surprised faces when he woke them up in the morning! Needless to say, this week has been pretty exciting. Lot’s of fun playing with cousins and a surprise visit from Daddy! We’re spending every single second we can with him until he has to leave again for a few more weeks. I’ll be scarce on the blog for a little longer as we enjoy this much needed family time. 🙂

  2. That is a long time for him to be gone Rebecca. I know that my kids really have a hard time with anything over a day. Love that moment you captured- really sums up their excitement.

  8. I love this photo! And I’m so glad to hear your family got some daddy time in – how fun that it was a surprise! My husband had to be gone for three weeks just recently, and it was very hard to adjust to, so I’m super impressed that you’ve been able to make it for such a long stretch! Good luck as you continue to keep your little family going, until things return to normal!
