Schedule a Date Night/Date Day

Set aside a night each week or a full day once a month; where you get to get out of house and act like a couple. Go out for lunch/ dinner, catch a movie, and go to a pub. Do anything that will allow the two of you to spend time together with no obstruction.  The most important thing is to avoid discussing about the kids or household concerns. This is the time to rekindle the passion in your marriage.

Call/Message/email during the day

It need not be any serious matter that requires a discussion, but ensure that you drop in a ‘hi’ or ‘how are you doing’; or may be a selfie with the baby… anything to suggest that he is on your mind even when he is away.

Eat one meal of the day together

You can choose whether to have breakfast or dinner together. Little quite conversation at the beginning or the end of the day helps a long way. Avoid bringing the kids or work in the conversation as this is a time for the both of you.

Do Household chores together

Working as a team will allow to you accomplish more and help you spend more quality time together.Try doing household chores that you can complete together.
