We're Back!

After almost 30 hours of travelling we made it home just after 3am on Thursday. Drew is a born flyer, unlike his mommy. :)

He slept for about 6 hours on the plane ride from Taipei to LA and was a ball of energy on the ride from LA to D.C.
The car ride home is another story. He cried pretty much the whole way but once we got in the house, got a new diaper and a bottle he was seemingly in heaven. He is very curious and wants to look and touch everything. Did I mention he can crawl? He also likes to pull himself up on everything, and I mean everything.

Grandma and Grandpa came by last night and stayed for a little over an hour. Grandma gave Drew a bottle and Grandpa took a gazillion pictures - will post some later.

Daddy and I are doing well, just tired. Drew spent his first night in his crib last night and he didn't like it at first...at all! He cried for about 30 minutes before he finally fell asleep and this was after a bath, a bottle a story and 30 minutes of laying on daddy in the rocking chair. He got up twice during the night and Mommy changed him and fed him and he went back to sleep pretty much without trouble. He has been asleep now for about 7 hours!

Alexis is coming home today. She is getting her hair and nails done so she will be extra pretty to meet her brother. Daddy and I are a little nervous but excited to have her home.

I have taken a ton of pics and will post more later today!

Thanks to everyone for their good wishes and prayers. We couldn't have done this without all of you!
