My hunch--this is pure speculation--is that he intended to spend Monday evening cleaning up and then he was going to report them missing on Tuesday. I suppose he could have been planning on doing that Monday night when he returned home, but it seems like things were still in too much chaos at the house for him to report as soon as he got home. Perhaps he would have reported it late on Monday after he had a chance to tidy up.
Either way, I think he was going to use the separation claim as a reason why he wasn't alarmed when he didn't hear from her.
Unless he had a really good excuse for where he thought they were, I think he'd have to report them missing sometime late Monday night. It would look really suspicious if he didn't. If it was just his wife missing, maybe.
But a pregnant wife with two very young children, not responding to phone calls, and not being with neighbors or friend---he'd have to call the police that night to avoid looking suspect. JMO
