Missing Daddy!

First I want to say how funny it is to me that as soon as you have a child, you start calling your spouse "daddy" or "mommy" more than any other name. I find myself calling Zachary "daddy" even when Tate is not around! Oh, the wonderful little things that change when you become a parent!


A few weeks ago, I finally got to see my two boys together. Can I just say how much cuter each of them are when they are together?! Tate and I have been missing his daddy and I know Zachary has been missing both of us...maybe the smaller one of the two of us more!

We only had a short weekend together but it was WONDERFUL! We had been apart for 4.5 weeks and now are in another 5 weeks apart (with only 3 to go). This has definitely been a tough time but Zach and I both know it is the right thing for our family right now. Zachary is studying like crazy and doing really well in his preparation for the USMLE Step I this June.

And Tate, he is making a lot of progress in his strength. The physical therapy is doing him a lot of good already. Mostly I am the therapist...the actual therapist comes, evaluates Tate, and teaches me what to do which I do daily. It is a little daunting at times, but seeing progress in my little son makes me feel much better about how I am doing!


Here is another one of my two favorites. They really do look a lot alike and are both so handsome that sometimes I can't even handle it!


And one of my sweet little family! I am sure looking forward to lots of family time without the big test lingering over Zachary's head! So proud of both of my boys!!
