We're Home!

That's right folks - back in the USA!  We arrived at 3am on Saturday morning (only a 30 hours trip back this time) so that was great.  Mia did pretty well - she only lost it during the beginning of flights and screamed for a few minutes (with the exception of the beginning of the Hong Kong trip - that lasted for about 60 minutes!)  We would give her first travel on airplanes a grade of B - pretty good for a little one!

Spent most of Saturday sharing our little one with our son Bradley and husband Doug!  It was so exciting to see their reactions and Mia's as well.  She is adjusting really well to the two of them. Bradley loves to hold his sister, play with her and even wanted to help give her a bath and change a diaper!  He woke up at 4:30 am on Saturday as he heard us home and wouldn't go back to sleep - he played with his sister most of the day!  

The ultimate question - Yes - we are welcoming visitors!  So many have called and followed the blog.  This is an open invitation to stop by.  We welcomed Aunt Pam and Uncle Jeff on Saturday along with Jeff's parents who were in town from Iowa.  We also had a few neighborhood visitors.  Mia is a lively little gal and loves visitors!
 
Our only issues remain adjusting to the 12 hour time difference, the increase of her night terrors again (anyone have ideas for help on this one? - please share), and her eczema - poor little thing is covered with it.  We're scheduled for the first Dr. visit on Wednesday and hope to get some relief for this then!

We're a little behind in posting pictures and tales from the balance of our Vietnam journey but hope to catch up on this on Monday.  

Thanks to all who have assisted us in celebrating the addition of our family!  We've been so excited to share this blog with everyone...
