home at last!

We are finally home. I didn't think that the flight would ever end... YuanYuan was pretty good on the flight, he slept most of the time. There were a few screaming incidents, but not too many.

Things are going well overall. YuanYuan is grieving for his foster mama pretty hard, especially at night. During the day, Em is his favorite person. She is enjoying having a little brother, but he expects her to hold him whenever he sees her - kind of exhausting for a 13 year old! YuanYuan loves Evie, too, and whenever she goes upstairs to her room, he stands at the bottom of the stairs and yells JieJie (big sister)! Evie is having a bit of trouble adjusting to her new role of big sister and having someone else fill the baby spot. There is jealousy now and then, especially when Em pays a lot of attention to YuanYuan.

He is kind of scared of the cats, but terrified of the dog. The phones and remotes are not safe - he pushes buttons, then throws them when they don't respond to him! He loves to dance to music and play with his sisters. Tortillas are yummy, but refried beans get spit out! Mashed potatoes are a delicious new treat!
