The last day we took a group picture of all 12 families that ended up in Guangzhou at the same time from CCAI ( our adoption agency). Then we finished up the trip with one last taxi ride back over by the White Swan hotel to do some shopping….then back to the hotel to pack!
We got back to Denver at 6:35 pm on Wed Aug 24! It was a 26 hour ordeal that started on Aug 24 in China…it was a very taxing trip with a 27 pound toddler in our laps and getting through the airports with no stroller! But we made it!!!!
When we got to DIA we had an excited to meet Eli group waiting for us! Eli had gotten enough sleep on the plane to charm his siblings!
After meeting grandparents and Zoe, we gave Eli a bath and bottle and tucked him in bed at his new home in Colorado…he slept 16 hours straight…broke the record of 15 set by Jenna years ago!
A huge thank you to all of our family and friends that supported us through this journey! We could not have done it without you! Eli seems to be settling in quite nicely. I will be getting him to all of his doctors’ appointments over the next couple of weeks..please check back periodically as I will be updating our blog every once in a while!
Every child truly does bring us God’s smile!
