we are home!

what an amazing, unforgettable journey. ethiopia is an amazing country filled with amazing people. things are hectic in our house, but overall we are doing well. here are some pictures, since I know that's what everyone is waiting for! Here is Miss Ayla....

it only took a few minutes to see some smiles!


me and daddy right after we met (we don't think she had seen too many men...check out the look on her face!)


a very happy, very relieved mommy!


catching some rays at the guesthouse...


already loving my big brother, xander!
