William Jaime is HOME!


As I'm sure you've guessed we are back at home and although this post is a little late, I figured I should finish the report. The trip back was a bit stressful as we were still not feeling too great and baby and equipment were alot to manage through the airports, security and immigration, but with the help of a friendly and speedy cart driver in Houston we made it. Jaime was actually a pretty good plane rider except for getting sick once and a little fussing on landings, but since both planes were packed and David and I had to sit separately from Pauline and Jaime, he never bothered me a bit. Everyone seems to have finally shaken "the bug". David bounced back the quickest, but it took me a full week to turn the corner. It was very disappointing that we didn't get to do the sightseeing or shopping that we planned, but we were so relieved to be back that it seems pretty insignificant. Anyway, Jaime is home and seems to be adjusting quite well. He really has a fun disposition and is not very shy especially with men it seems. He lights up to see Uncle Billy and Uncle Kenny (of course Kenny says he is the favorite). He also is definitely attached to "momma" - when he is upset or if Pauline leaves the room he looks for her and goes to her for comfort. At least it appears that the sickness was good for bonding purposes. A few choice photos for: 1) David's true memories of Guatemala, 2) Jaime's first photo after immigration in Houston -- thrilled to be a US Citizen, and 3) Touchdown at BWI - we made it.
