We are back =)

Hi,

We are finally home and adjusting to a normal life again. Joseph is doing well! He does have his days and nights mixed up so Robert and I are taking turns at night with him until he decides to fall asleep. Sunday he feel asleep at 3:00 am and got up at 3:00 pm.. he was very tired. He did sleep about 5 hours on the plane which was great. It was long ride back, I about lost it in the O'Hare airport. That place is huge and I just didn't have any more energy to spare finding our way through immigration, customs, and the TSA. Carrying around a 22lb baby plus our bags was a bit much. Once we got to our gate I wanted to freshen up a bit only to realize my makeup bag was gone.. it must have fallen out on the plane. To say I was irritated is an understatement. Then we sat in the airplane for 45 min while they fixed some part for the bathroom.. I could barely keep my head up. Finally we took off and landed 40 minutes later in Columbus and our family and friends were there to welcome us home. Seeing them was the best thing. I couldn't hold back the tears.. It felt good to be home. I have to say Robert and I are exhausted. The jet lag is 10 times worse on the way back ( sorry Tricia and Kateri but its true) I can say I have honestly never been this tired. Being up for 30 plus hours and then only getting 5 hours of sleep is hard but I am feeling more rested today. Poor Robert he feel asleep at the dinner table tonight( I am not kidding). I am trying to get the massive amount of laundry done, put stuff away, get Joseph on a schedule, trying to make sure the dogs get extra attention, and most important get caught up on sleep..
We've been so blessed with our support group they are providing meals for us for about 2 weeks..Isn't that awesome! Thank you everyone for your emails, calls, and cards.. we appreciate the warm welcome home. I will try and get to my emails tomorrow I promise!! Kateri, Congrats on your LOA!!! Praise the Lord!! I will be emailing you and Tricia soon! Lots and lots to tell you!
