We're Home!

The day we have waited for for almost two years is here: we have all three of our children under one roof. This afternoon, we finally made it home! We hugged our boys at the gate (sweet moment of all three together, the boys meeting Laina and loving on her), and then were welcomed by family and friends at baggage claim. Pictures of the airport meeting to come.

This afternoon, the three played together on the rug for a few minutes. Three peas in a pod.



For now, let me just say that Laina is sleeping in her own crib right now. Joy!

Tonight, as I was putting the boys to bed,
Me: It's a good night tonight because I get to put you guys down to sleep, and I haven't done that in a long time.
Cory: And it's a good day because Laina's home. And she's so cute.
True. :)

I love that you now get to change your
"Somewhere Out There
a little girl waits for us!"

on your blog. So glad Laina's not "somewhere" anymore but exactly where she belongs!
