Home

We made it home!!  Micah did great on the flights.  He cry only for a short time, with only 2 hours left!  I would say that is not so bad since we got him up at 5:30am and it was 12:00 am to him.  He slept off and on most of the way.  My mom and Bill picked us up from the airport and we met everyone back at Chris' parents house.  Elliana and Andy were so excited to see Micah!  Andy was actually the first to ask to hold him.  He was very gentle and sweet.  Micah cried most of the introductions, little crazy with the kids:)  Elliana has helped with every bottle!!  She has been an excellent helper and cannot stop her self from loving him too much.  After swimming and eating with family, we headed back to my parents home for the night. 
On Sunday, we stopped to see Chris' grandmother who was put in the hospital while we were in Taiwan and just moved to a nursing home for short while.  She loved meeting her newest great-grandson and she seemed to be doing pretty well.
We finally pulled into our driveway around 8:30pm.  We all gave Micah a tour of his new home and settled in to relax and get ready for bed.  Today, we took it easy and stayed in, just hanging out together.  The kids are relearning their routines and adjusting to being one of three:). 
Chris went into work for a short time and will go back all day tomorrow.  I do not see much on my plate for tomorrow either.  Micah is liking the slower pace!  I am still not complete recovered from traveling time zones and traveling in general, hopefully a good nights sleep will help.  I will post pictures, hopefully tomorrow.
