We are home - a Family of 6!
(On the plane)
She was good during boarding and then when the plane was waiting to take off, she started getting upset, which isn't like her. When the plane lifted off the ground the screaming got much worse. Then she vomited and quieted down. We had to change her clothes once again.
For most of the flight she was pleasent. She slept some, she snacked, she played. After we landed we were waiting for the luggage and I realized she had vomited all over herself! We got our bags and went to Immigration, where they needed to file her paperwork to register her as a US Citizen. I changed her clothes and she seemed happy!
(New American!)
We got her back in the stroller to go though another security checkpoint, drop off our checked bags, and head on the train to our connecting flight. I looked down and realized she was covered in vomit again! I had no where to stop and change her though! We went through security again and I had to lift her out of her stroller and then put her back in! Poor thing! Then we had to trek all through the airport to our gate. Finally I could change her again!!! Just in time before we had to board!
The flight to Pittsburgh was a quick one and she slept the whole flight. When we landed in Pittsburgh the boys, my mom and Tom, and my dad and Pat were all waiting for us!
At home she loved playing with her brothers! I don't know if she recognized them from all the face timing, but she acted like she did! She gave them all kisses and hugs!
Nathan read her a good night story
She slept ok....
Yesterday we celebrated her birthday with a cake. She was hesitant to try it at first (probably remembered the gross cake in China!), but once she did she loved it!!
She also enjoyed tea parties and picnics with her brothers and playing the piano!
She is adjusting great. She slept really well last night! She's just such a sweet girl. We are so incredibly blessed to have her in our family.
This will be my last blog post, so I wanted to say just how much we appreciate all of the love, support, and prayers from all of you. Every Facebook comment, text message, and email meant so much to us. Thank you and we can't wait for you to meet Nina in person! We are sure she will melt your hearts too!
