Over the holiday Steve was able to take a substantial about of time off. 18 days to be exact. I was a little hesitant about all the time, and I was not sure how I was going to handle it, but it was awesome. We all had such a great time, less the time Steve and I spent with a small cold, and then the stomach flu. Thank goodness the illnesses were short lived.
From playing in the snow, going to Hollywood Connection, and just spending time together at home. Steve and I were even able to go off and do our own thing for a little while, while Grandma watched Charlotte.
Every morning , Charlotte got up and went looking for Steve. Running up to him and hugging his leg when she found him. It is going to be a little bit of an adjustment for her when she wakes and he is back at work.
It really has been great to sit and eat more than just dinner together. Being able to spend this time together has been a really bonding experience for us all and we are all much closer now because of all this time he has been home.
