Well, we made it home finally! We started our journey home at 6:00pm Ethiopian time on friday and arrived at our house around 6:00pm CST on Saturday or 2:00am Ethiopian time sunday morning. That is 32 hours of traveling. Tsehay never cried once. We were amazed and kept waiting for her to start. Every other kid was why not her.
Upon arriving in the US and making it through customs and in true seattlite fashion we stopped at Starbucks. It tasted so good. We also ordered an ice water with extra ice which was equally as good.
When we arrived in Milwaukee my dad and our son were there to meet us. I grabbed a hold of Ayden and couldn't let go. It felt great. When we got in the car Tsehay and Ayden held each other's hand. That was it. The moment you will remember for life. A long journey finished with two tiny hands holding each other and a simple smile.

Congratulations! I am glad everything is going well. Giardia is pretty rotten, though, Lindsay can tell you that!!
So when are you going to post more pictures of sweet Tsehay? Can't wait to see more of her, and the rest of the family, in person as well!
Mehandis is doing great in Tosa as well... although I cannot brag that he did not cry during the 20 some hours of travel :)
