we are HOME!!

our trip was amazing...life changing...
olive is adjusting so well....ender is jealous, but is getting better...
i have so many pictures that i want to post, but i won't be able to until tues when michael goes back to work b/c we don't have the right software to do it on this computer (i'll have to take a few with my camera in the morning and post them)

i am so proud...with su su's help i got them to sleep at the same time today for their nap, and they both slept for at least 2 hrs! and then olive fell asleep around 7:30 in my arms, and i put ender to be at about 8:15...i just pray that it is this easy from now on when i don't have help during the day!!

it's funny, when we were in ethiopia and had olive, i still had that empty feeling, like part of me was missing (the feeling i felt throughout the adoption)...it didn't go away until we came down the escalator at the airport and our little man was waiting for us at the bottom!! it feels right now...all four of us are together now :) (see pictures here, thanks to bebe :)

again, thanks SO SO much for all of the prayers! and thanks for the continued prayers for our bonding/attachment times :)

love,
nat
