One Year Ago Today ... Welcome Home Baby!

One year ago today we welcomed our sweet little boy home!

We were all prepared for a rough flight home. Seriously, I don't even like long plane rides never mind a 13 month old.

I had a bag full of tricks, treats and anything in between. But we were very blessed because we had an amazing flight home.

Of course I over packed .... it has taken me a year to say that out loud and Ray would be shocked that I actually admitted it {{insert laughter here}}

All Tyler needed to entertain him was bottled water and the remote control.

Everyone that sat near us played with Tyler. He learned peek-a-boo pretty quick. Got the biggest kick out of seeing his new friends hide from him. Obviously, he won new friends pretty quick.

Everything went so smooth. The airport, customs and the flight itself. Again, we were very blessed!!

We stepped off the plane to the best welcome party we could have asked for ... grandparents!

It is so hard to believe that it has really been a year. Amazing how fast time goes by.

This morning as I walked into Tyler's room to get him up I heard, "good morning mommy" ... "up mommy, cuddle" That has to be the BEST way to start the day!!
