We're Home!

What an amazing trip we had. It seems hard to believe that it's only been a little over a week that Grace and I have been together and yet, it's hard to remember life without her. We had a rough plane ride home. Grace was fantastic, I was sick almost the entire ride from Addis to Dulles (about 17 hours) and my sister Kate was sick about half of it. Thank God for the other families in our group who rallied around to help us. But Gracie was a real trooper. Then we got to Dulles and sat on the runway for 4 hours before we took off. So we got into Boston around 6:00 instead of 2:00 but it all worked out. We had a great group of family who came by to welcome us so that was fantastic. She's really doing great. She only woke up twice last night for a bottle and she's back down again for a nap. She really digs the mobile in her crib! I'll post more later about the trip but here are a few pictures of our homecoming
