Preparing for the Homecoming

11:00 pm Tuesday - after we finally hit the BOQ, unloaded the car and got her in her jammies. I put her on the bed for a minute to get her a drink and she passed out, poor thing.
3:00 am - 6 months pregnant, up for an hour and getting ready to wake Amelia up

3:05 am - trying to get a better picture. Soon after that, I received a phone call that said the guys were coming in at 4 am and not 4:30 am and to hoof it to the arrival place.



3:50 am - Amelia in the parking lot right after we get there, getting ready to watch for Daddy. She's very excited right now.

4:15 am - We're told they just left Cherry Point and won't be there until 5 or 5:30 am.
(Isn't she beautiful?!?!? It broke my heart to see that little sad face). If I'd been more awake I would have remembered that Cherry Point was more than an hour away.

You both are so beautiful. I miss you like crazy! Look at how big Mia is and all those curls. She is a heartbreaker. Oh and the belly- I cannot wait to meet her too!
lots of hugs- Connie
