Going home

We were told we could go home on Tuesday evening so we packed our bags and headed out that night, making it to our friends' house about 3 hours north of Salt Lake City. On Wednesday it took 11 hours almost exactly, to get from there to Ryan's brother's house where the girls were waiting to meet Aubry. She was such a trooper in the car seat so I had worried for no reason :) I wish I had videoed the girls' reaction to seeing her the first time because it was so sweet! Kaia was amazed at how small she is and Zoe wanted to know if she was hungry or needed a diaper change...such a little mommy!

Zoe was so excited when she first saw Aubry. It was love at first sight

This is Zoe holding Aubry while Ryan's mom, Nancy, tells Lily, our niece, to give her a kiss

It's a little blurry but this is our first family-of-five picture :)

Kaia is beyond thrilled to be a big sister!

Some of my side of the family came over today to meet Aubry. I didn't get a picture of my mom because she had a migraine most of the day so she looked terrible and would probably never forgive me if I posted a picture of her in that condition :) My brother, Toby and Aubry

My sister, Rachel and Aubry
