Lili is now on day 3 at home and still doing well. Last night was a bit rough, but she naps well and as long as I make a point of napping as well, I think we'll survive night time sleep deprivation until she's feeling more comfortable. I did manage to get all our luggage unpacked, most everything put away as well as most of the laundry done. Now my challenge is to get Dave's shirts ironed for work this week. The original plan was for him to take his 4 weeks of infant care leave, but one of his co-workers and his wife just had a baby so he is taking infant care leave right now. Plus, 2 new employees just joined the team at work, so he agreed to wait until the end of June to begin his leave. We hope to do a little traveling during his leave. Of course this depends on how well Lili has adjusted to the car seat. The car seat ride to the pediatricians office on Friday was a bit traumatic for her. I'm sure she'll be fine after a few trips to the mall, Baby Depot and grocery shopping.
Lili is now up from her nap so I'll post some pictures and try to post more tomorrow.
Lili at the airport in Guatemala City airport. Yeah! I'm going home.
We landed in Dallas! Here is Lili as a U.S. citizen. She's pretty happy about it.

What a sweetie! Looks like she is enjoying being home AND the center of attention!
I'm glad you are home and all of you are adjusting. You said she loves her brothers and the dogs. What did the brothers (and the dogs) make of her?
I am so glad all of you are home safe and sound. I love seeing all the huge smiles on your faces!!
Hope to be able to meet Lili soon!
Congratulations!!!

The car seat does get better. I think it took Joshua a week (and we had kids to pick up from school, so he had no choice but to be in one :). That week was tough though!
