Hello America!

We have been on the Motherland's soil for 2.5 weeks now....it has been such a whirlwind of a million doctor's appointments, the worst jet lag I have ever experienced, being out of town for a week and attempting to get settled....Life is so much busier here than in Asia. I welcome it, but am overwhelmed by it at the same time.

There is so much to catch up on, and I will try in the coming weeks....but for now, we are home for close to 3 months, and I am thrilled. I am already 1 cm dilated (yikes) and due in about a month.

America, it turns out you are more delicious than I remembered. I have gained 6 pounds since our return. Please take it easy on me, and do not give me a 10 pound baby!

Friends, I hope to see you soon. You will find me at a local eatery 8 out of 7 days a week....I am hopeful to be in touch with all you sweet Atlantans soon, in between meals of course.

Until then, we are so grateful, grateful, grateful to see blue skies and have our hearts filled by sweet fellowship with our family and friends.
