Everybody is home safe and sound

Sabeth, Esteban, Isabella and Grandma Dawn all arrived safe and sound in Boston on Monday night (11/22) around 9:30pm. Isabella and Esteban were both asleep so Julien didn't get to officially greet them until Tuesday morning. Everybody was tired and poor Grandma Dawn had to turn around and leave early Tuesday afternoon to get back to Grandpa Kerry and Seattle. !Grandma Dawn was an amazing help and Sabeth couldn't have done it without her!

Isabella had her first U.S. doctor's appointment on Tuesday morning and is healthy as can be. She is adjusting to life in Mass. though she woke up Tuesday morning quite freaked out by her new surroundings. Esteban continues to be a great big brother and insists on being the first to great her in the mornings. Sabeth is finally getting some much needed sleep as Julien is able to get up for the 6am wake up call though she is still handling the 2am wake ups.

We are all still figuring out a rhythm and trying to manage the chaos. We were able to get to Abuela Ana's and Grandpa Julien's for Thanksgiving though we discovered how much Isabella hates being in a car seat. She screamed until she made her self through up. It was an interesting sight to see us changing her on the side of Rt 93 (128 for you Bostoners) with it being 35 degrees out. Sabeth had to squeeze herself in between the two car seats in the back and ride the rest of the hour and a half trip to Julien's parents in order to sooth Isabella.

We thank everyone for your well wishes, support, and prayers. It all certainly helped us get through the process and grow our family!
