AIBU to expect to hear from him.

[JennyBlueWren]

DH has taken DS (aged 3) on a camping trip- just overnight. I haven't heard from him since yesterday morning. They might not get a signal but they were planning to eat out so would probably have WiFi. I have sent both text and Facebook message.

I expect they are just having too much fun but would have liked to hear they arrived safely. I always do that when I go away.
Also mil was phoning to ask how they were getting on.

Thinking of messaging friend whose husband and son are with them to see if she's heard but don't want to be seen as fussing. Maybe I could phrase it as wondering what time to expect them home...

It wouldn't be seen as fussing - the friend will absolutely understand (although it's still quite early - maybe let her have a lie in if she's without kids). You're right - they're having too much fun to call, but a quick reassuring message takes seconds.

I would want to know that they arrived safely. I think you should check with your friend to see if she has heard anything.

Friend heard from them yesterday afternoon so they arrived safe and she's going to let me know when they're on their way home.
Sent him a photo of baby and I enjoying our lie in!

That's a bit shot of your dh really. A text doesn't take much.
