Day one at home!

Well - so much for the comforts of home!
O woke us up about 3am.... I got up with her at 4am and got her breakfast and kept her occupied so John could attempt to get another hour or so of sleep! Little J got up about 5am - as O was noisy! A slept until 7:30 - and did not hear a thing!
Some O facts!
O does not like to have blankets covering her!
O likes to feed herself! If you try to feed her - she will refuse and go hungry instead!
O is fascinated with the dog -but very fearful of him!
O can throw a monster fit! We call her Linda Blair (from the exorcist!) There are no demons left here!
O does NOT like car seats! Like another scene out of the Exorcist!
O enjoys A and Little J's toys more than her own!

We came home to about 12 inches of snow on the ground last night - and then we got about 6-7 inches over night Friday! John went out to start the tractor and clear the driveway so that we can get out of the garage! Lucky for him - Steve Kyllo, a really nice neighbor of ours came up and brought his little Kubota and had it done in no time! A nice Christmas present!
We are truly exhausted, got some severe jet lag, and have been going with little sleep each night - since Tuesday! It has been non-stop!
The journey has been worth it! We have a beautiful little girl and our family is complete! We are very blessed to have 3 wonderful children, a comfortable home and terrific network of family and friends!

Merry Christmas to everyone!
