Life has started to become somewhat "normal" now... as normal as it can be, at least. :) Jordan is currently asleep on the living room floor, while his daddy is watching a soccer game on TV. Soooo sweet!
A couple of quick stories from our time in Ethiopia:
* Our first meeting with Jordan was on Tuesday morning, after arriving late Monday night. Jordan was brought to our guest house, where we got to hold him for the first time (cue tears... not just us, also him) and feed him. Hopefully, I will figure out one of these days how to post the video. These first moments together were so surreal. 1 1/2 years of waiting, longing, praying, waiting some more, dreaming.... all complete. Amazing. For those of you who may still be waiting for this moment, please know it is SOOOO worth waiting for.
* On the "lighter side," while waiting on our visa appointment on Wednesday (this is when Jordan is officially issued a visa and able to come home with us) Jordan decided to spew all over Nate's khaki pants (and in a very inopportune area on his pants, if you know what I mean). It was soooo funny. Here we were, getting so super nervous and excited and wanting to "look" all official for the consulate worker, and here comes the spew. It couldn't possibly have had anything to do with the fact that the room we were in for a couple of hours while we waited was a cool 100 degrees. :)
Ok... here's what you really came for. Some more pics of our time at home so far!
Jordan loves to be outside.... I guess this walk wore him out. :)
