After a long day of traveling we are finally home with Aaden! He did really well for a 1.5 year old that was woken up at 2am to go to the airport and then travelled all day. The 8 hour time difference is throwing us all off (if you wondered why I'm posting at 4:45am) but he slept from 5pm-1 and then I just got him back down again at 4. Hopefully tonight we can get him to sleep at a later time so he can start sleeping during the night.
It's so great to finally have him home with us and try to get ourselves into a "normal" life. Hotel living with a baby is not always fun. Yesterday Aaden met 3 of his grandparents (my mom & dad, and Michael's mom) and he was charming them already. Later on today he will get to meet his big brother, Ryan. I can't wait to have us all together. I know Aaden will just love him. Ryan is just like his father. They are both kid magnets. All Ryan's little cousins just love him so I know Aaden is going to be quite taken with his big bro too.
Hopefully I will be able to download pictures of Aaden from this last trip later today and get them up on the site. I will do it as soon as possible because I know many of you are dying to see them. It was just too hard to do in Russia this time because I never had enough time. I was too busy chasing after my son :)
Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take,
but by the moments that take your breath away.
