Homecoming


Heather, Samantha & Emily arrived late Monday night in Austin. We greeted them with balloons and a big sign. Samantha was excited because she can read her name. Emily cried with all us strangers trying to cuddle her - but she warmed up the next day. We ended up staying an extra night in Austin because Samantha's car seat and Emily's pak-n-play (that she sleeps in) did not make it to Los Angeles with them. They delivered them to Megan's the next day. Probably worked out best because Heather was "wiped out" - the girls slept on the plane but not at the same time. The extra day at Megan's gave her a chance to sleep more. We had to make a Target run because Samantha doesn't have any warm clothes and it is cold and windy here - in the 40's today. Emily has all of SK's hand me downs so she has long sleeved clothes. They are now settled into the townhouse. We are enjoying every minute with all 3 of them. Believe it or not, Samantha has an accent! Emily is the cutest - toddling around and exploring everything. She babbles alot - says "hi" - "bye" - "DaDa" - "MaMa" and sends "flying kisses" (that's what they call them in KL.) Trying to teach her to say "Tima." Samantha & I are making decorations for the Christmas tree today.
