Home!



We bought Chy and Jaden lil animals wearing Utah sweatshirts to remember this life changing trip!



Home at last! It was a looooong two days in a car with infant and toddler. Jaden did great, except the time his formula was in Grandma and Papa's car and we were in the middle NO WHERE! Thank God they were behind us and we could pull over. Chy, on the other hand, was ready to pull her hair out. She doesn't like being belted in for 5/6 hours! I would love someone to tell me to take a looooong nap, but I guess that comes with age. the last day in Utah, when we got our surprise call that we could go home, we took a drive to the near by ski resorts. attached are some pics! Jaden stayed home with G and P.
Today was the first day I saw a bit of jealousy from Chy. I think that now we are back in her territory, she is seeing the affects of someone else being in the family! I put his bassinet where her lil lazy boy chair goes... how dare I! Well, not to disturb her too much, I found a new spot. Other than that, she has been great. She held Jaden today and loved it. She kept moving my hand away, like "go away".
We had a lot of family come over to meet Jaden yesterday. It was so fun! He is already loved so much! We hope for more visitors this weekend...
I will post more pics of lil man tomorrow, as they are on the other camera!

Jaden's bio brother.


Jaden coming home for the first time.



Chy kissing "baby bra"


She is very interested in him. (So is Grandma!)


Daddy snuggling.


Look at that face...


Jaden and Papa...



Jaden came home from the hospital today. He is such a good baby. Barely a peep. We haven't heard him cry, yet. Chy has loved having him home. We haven't seen a jealous streak, yet. She always wants to be in his face. she is learning her boundaries.

It's Official...

What a day...

Everything is signed and official. It was a very emotional day. It is so hard to see someone so sad.

we will get to bring him home tomorrow. We are looking forward to it, as we haven't been able to spend much time with him. There will be more pics posted tomorrow, guaranteed!

We brought Chy to the hospital today. She was singing in the backseat on the way to the hospital "baby bra". I've never heard her sign yet, plus I didn't know she knew where we were headed. She was very interested in him. She kept touching his hair, rubbing his hands and kissing his head. The hospital photographer did a photo shoot with all six of us. ("G", her son, Chy, Jaden, Gord and I). They are priceless pics and glad we have them.

Tomorrow is the big day!

Today was a quiet day around the house. It is nice to not be home and have the guilt of sitting on the couch knowing you should be cleaning or something. There is nothing for me to clean!

We had chaotic dinner tonight with 2 kids under 4! It was nice to see Chy and "G"'s son interact, but maybe not for everyone at the restaurant : ) We took a couple nice pictures. Once we download, we will share.

Tomorrow, the inductions starts about 7. We heard today that I may be able to be in the delivery room. I know things can change, but I would love that.

Chy is doing well. She has gone to bed good the last couple of nights. I did have to go into her bedroom last night about 1AM. I think she was scared being in a different environment. I have to admit it was nice waking up to a little morning breath voice saying "hi momma". I opened my eyes and she was waving, too. I never think to wave to someone that is a foot away, nice personal touch!

Better get some rest.
