No Place Like Home!




Back a week and just now writing - OOPS!! I am sure you understand. There are no words to describe how incredible this entire experience has been. We are just blown away. We were ecstatic to be home - our own beds, our own shower, our moms to cook for us, and friends bringing meals...it is awesome! Cole LOVES being home. When we first walked in the door and started showing him around he just had the biggest smile and started bouncing up and down in my arms - he new we were home at last. He loves to be able to play on the carpet with all of his toys. He has adjusted so great. It took him a little to get his sleep schedule switched, but the last three nights have been great. We are so proud of him. He is a cuddler, which mom and dad love and he has really had fun meeting anyone and everyone. He is crawling all over the place and is pulling up to stand at the coffee table, couch, mom's legs everywhere, etc. I will be organizing some more pictures and will post soon!

I was looking though our pictures today and I was actually missing Vietnam! It was such a different place and incredible trip that a piece of me is sad to have left. I think we will always have a small longing for Vietnam - the country that brought our son Cole Thai. We cannot wait to take him back some day to see it.

Don't you just wish you could sleep like this...



Happy Birthday Dusty!!





SO sorry we have not written in so long. As you can imagine we have been VERY busy! We went on a half day tour of Ho Chi Minh City on Tuesday, had Cole's health check up on Wednesday, had our Immigration interview yesterday - and celebrated Dusty's Birthday!! Scott and Thomas also had Birthdays on the 2nd and 3rd so we had somewhat of a surprise party for them! It was really fun to have a great dinner with the Dillon staff here in Vietnam and celebrate their birthdays. Dusty received beautiful flowers from both the Dillon staff and the hotel - how nice is that?

Cole Thai continues to keep us very busy and entertained. Today he was fake sneezing to make Dusty and I laugh. We are leaving tomorrow at noon to fly to Hanoi and hope to have our visa interview on Tuesday or Wednesday. So far we are still on schedule to be home Friday morning!! YAY!! We are having a great time, but right now our own shower and bed sounds heavenly. It is hard to live out of a suitcase for so long. We have heard that the internet may not be so great in Hanoi so we may not be able to update as often...not that we were doing a stellar job anyways, but I am sure you understand. :) We will keep you posted as best we can. Love you guys!!
