My little life once again is about to flip upside down, and I am not one bit prepared! Dave leaves us girls on saturday to go to the "dreaded north"(only in my mind) for a few months and make us girls some much needed money. He will be welding at a camp in the bush, and here's me praying that there is good cell phone reception. As much work as my husband can be at times, I love him to death and am petrefied(sp?) at the thought of doing are nighttime routine without him, and truth be told, I am scared to go to sleep without him there. I feel like I am still to young to be left alone! 
Mostly I am scared for the little miss, Princess Claire. I don't think words can adequetly explain how completly inamoured she is with her father. She is a daddy's girl through and through. She sits on the couch in the morning crying for him, trying to understand that he is at work, calling out"where daddy go, work?" I am scared that the little girl is gonna loss her spunk hanging out with her boring, overly cautious mother all day... and night. Who's gonna throw her around and make her stomach do summersaults, I am just not strong enough?
I love this man, and I think being away from him is only gonna make me realize how much.We are gonna pray for him each night, and patiently await the days when he can come home and visit. If anyone is bored give me a call, I am gonna need it! 403.455.9224! I am really lame at accepting help, but company may be needed!
Caitlin took these pictures for us! She did a great job! Little Olivia even cooperated the whole time and had no screaming fits, and for that we thank her! She is becomeing such a cute little button, except for when she screams!

I feel for you!! GOOD LUCK! Did you decide if you're moving up by your parents? Anyway, Cohen and I are always up for play dates!!
I understand what it is like to be left on your own... and I was totally alone with no babies for company. It is hard to be away Meag but it will be over soon and you will look back and say it wasn't so bad. Rely on your friends and family and make sure you get out. Lots of love and wish I was there to visit and help.
Meaghan,
I feel for you! I totally understand not wanting to lose your "help" at night. Putting two down to bed alone is quite the task - trust me, I know! I would love to hang out whenever you like - or I could take Claire off your hands anytime. I am sure Cade would love to play with her. Feel free to give me a call whenever you like and hopefully I will see you this weekend at church!
I love you Meg, you know that I will ALWAYS be there for you! Anytime, any day! Just think how good it will be in the long run, and take it day by day. You can do it, you are a lot stronger than you think. You are an excellent mom, and Claire deep down loves you just as much as she loves Dave. Shop those fears away, Just Kidding! You can do it!
I LOVE all of your pictures--the one of you and Dave is so cute, and I'm sure with him going away, you'll be glad to have it. Love the pic of Olivia too!
your new pics are so good, cait did a great job! the one of you and dave looking at eachother looks like a super cute engagement picture!! i love that one.
I really hope things go good while he is gone, i bet hes going to have a hard time without his girls!! Im here to help you out any time you need, (which is why you need to be closer!!!!!!!) you should still seriously consider it, there are TONS Of people that would be more than willing to help you move. I think being closer to family would really make you feel more comfortable, i know it does with me.
Aw, geez, I would hate that too. Just remember, the days will go by and before you know it, it will be over.
SUCH cute family pictures, Meg! Olivia looks SO cute!!
Great pictures, such a cute family. I can't even imagine how you are feeling but seriously it will go fast and it will be so good in the end. Like you said, you will appreciate and love him that much more! We are here for you anytime. If you need a break or want to hang out with the kids. Come over anytime. Let me know! Hang in there!
Hang in there and call me often. I sooooooo wish that we lived closer, maybe you should try to come and visit me while he is gone. Work on those birth cert. Oh and those pics are seriously adorable. Send me some, by mail. Love ya and good luck Dave.
Hey Meg,
These pics are gorgeous - just like your fam! The one of you and Dave is amazing! We'll have to plan a playdate soon and I am with Caitlin - shop your boredom away :)
See you soon!
Laura
Don't be too worried! I'm sure there are plenty of family and friend who love you, and will be there for you :)
I can only imagine going that long without my husband, I would miss him soo much.
You'll do great :)
