So good to be back home

Well, Sophie did an AWESOME job flying!!!! I timed it just right so she would need to eat when we were taking off, so I think that helped her ears.  She did get a little fussy, but it was because she was tired.  She fell asleep while she was eating and slept the rest of the flight.  Josiah LOVED flying!!!!  He wanted to sit in Mimi's lap next to the window so he could see all that was going on.  He continues to be an AWESOME flyer.  I'm so sad that in ten days he will no longer be a free flyer.  So who knows how much flying we will really do. 

The kids did a great job with sleeping in a new place.  The first night I slept with Josiah in his bed--maybe "slept" is a loose interpretation!    After the first night he slept all by himself like a big boy.  Sophie did a great job sleeping all by herself.  They also did a great job being introduced to so many people that they have never seen before or don't remember seeing.  Saturday night I had a wedding to go to and both the kids stayed with my cousin, her son and my aunt.  They did a fabulous job!!  

The only time they had a melt down was the night before we left.  Josiah had been up since 4:30am with only an hour nap.  We made it to NH way past his dinner time.  It was a good think the restaurant we picked was right next to our hotel.  I left my parents and my aunt and uncle to catch up, and the kids and I headed back to the hotel room for baths and a quick dinner. 

Even though I had fun visiting with family, it is always nice to be back home and sleeping in our own beds and having our routine.  It took a few days to adjust to having some structure again, but we are back in the swing of things.  Please look at our photo album to see some pictures from our trip
