Hello everyone,
We are all home safe and sound:) Our day of traveling went more smoothly than I had even hoped it would. I had myself mentaly prepared to be that person on the plane with the crying baby that everyone glares at, but it wasn't like that at all. Athena was a dream! She hardly cried at all on either of our flights, even during take offs and landings. We were able to entertain her most of the time and she took naps during a lot of our time in the air also. We left our hotel at 5:30 am and after 2 flights, 1 layover and 2 car rides, we arrived at our home in Mayville at about 10:30 pm. Thank you to grandma Nicholson and grandma Janet for picking us up at the airport:) Thank you also to Beth and grandma Janet for feeding us for our first couple of days home:)
Athena is adjusting very well to her home. She seems to be comfortable with her own room and new bed because she continues to sleep through the night. She got to meet several family members already including her two grandma's who picked us up, grandpa Ralph and Uncle Joe:) She LOVES Amber and Isabelle! If either of them are in the room Athena's eyes are glued to them and she reaches out to touch Amber whenever she is close enough. We went out for our first family walk today and everyone did very well:)
It's great to be home:) Hopefully we'll get a chance to see everyone soon and you can all meet our little sweetheart!
Love,
Nic, John and Athena

It is so fun to see someone's blog who has gone through the whole process! My husband and I are just beginning our adoption from Colombia and I found your blog in a search. We are from Eau Claire, WI. I would love to hear more about your process, but I realize you will be quite busy as you are just home. Hope things are going well!
