We Made It !

Ok, everyone, we are HOME! what a nightmare the trip was for me. I don't like flying anyway and to take a 25 hour trip after getting only 4 hours sleep the night prior was murder on me! I wish I could sleep on at least one of the planes we flew on. The baby slept pretty well on all three plane rides, and Hamid did a little. He was feeling bad and came down with a cold and headache on our way, poor guy.

We got to the airport 30min. late , but what a special welcome we had! No one knows but I got teary eyed on the long walk to that Welcome Home sign you all made for us. Thanks to everyone for the welcome home at the airport, it felt so good, only a long foreign trip like this one , can make you really appreciate home. Inside I felt miserable though, because of sleep deprivation and headache, so please know that I am a lot more fun when rested and I also am so thankful for friends like you guys to be apart of our family and life.

We all came home with all our loot and went straight to bed, all of us. I fed the baby, and Diane and my mom had prepared us dinner. Thank You ! Well I woke up this morning at 1:30 and could not get back to sleep, everyone else is awake too now. Hopefully we will get into the U.S. time frame soon.

Eli just loves his room, he sits in the baby bed and stares at the pictures on the wall for a long, long time. He also likes talking and laughing to the stuffed animals in his bed. He is so cute.

Bye, Nour
