Home and Tired
Sorry I didn't update since we got back but we have been busy and tired. Things are going great still. I think the kids are almost back to balance. Ethan and Kayla really missed us so we got a little attitude and some crying the first couple of days. We have been trying to have a lot of fun together. We have already been bike riding (Andrew rides well) and to the local water park. Andrew is sleeping well and doesn't show any signs of jet lag...can't say the same for his parents. Ethan and Kayla are really enjoying their new brother and there doesn't seem to be too many problems. Andrew is learning the ropes here at home. The rules are slightly different then the China/vacation rules so I am sure it is a shock that he can't play DSi all day long as much as he wants. He is already picking up some English. I would say he has more than 20 words/phrases and adds 5 or so a day. We have been reading simple books and working on the alphabet. He doesn't really like school stuff so he drags his feet a little at the learning part. Thank you all for praying for us and following along on our journey. I'll get some pictures of our new family all together up soon.

Welcome home!! Kyle and I loved meeting you guys at the Consulate. What a special family you are.
ReplyDeleteJet lag is killing us.... looking forward to having that in the rear view mirror! Hope is finally learning more English, but 5 words a day sounds VERY impressive!! Good for Andrew!
Praying each day gets better!
