We've been home for four days now. Joshua has been to the playground twice, met our playgroup, gone strawberry picking to the rodeo. Hope he doesn't think every day is going to be this exciting.
We were so happy to get home Saturday night. When we walked in the door, Joshua was a little apprehensive when he saw Shadow. A few minutes later, when he saw Sunny, he screamed and yelled "Lao hu, lao hu!" (Tiger, tiger!) They are gradually coming to an understanding. The cats try to stay out of his way (but near me, a delicate balancing act), and if they come near Joshua, he screams "Hi" at them. (and they run for their lives)
We are close to getting on this time zone. Last night both kids went to sleep around 8 and slept through the night til I woke them at 8:30am. John and I woke up in the middle of the night and had trouble going back to sleep, but we'll see how tonight goes.
As for sleeping arrangements, both kids are sleeping on the floor of our bedroom, on John's side (where there's more room) and I'm sleeping on John's side of the bed, so they can see me. If they sleep through the night tonight, we're going to try their room tomorrow night. It would be so nice to have our room back, but I'm not going to get my hopes up yet!

Congratulations and welcome home. We enjoyed reading all about your travels and cannot wait to meet Joshua. See you soon, Heather, Chris, Sicily and Maya.
ReplyDeleteGlad things are moving along so well. It was nice to talk to you and to get the first "Hi" from Joshua. Sounds like you are making progress every day. Look forward to hearing about Elliot's visit this weekend.
