Thank You, Lord!!! It has been a long journey, but it has been well worth it. Jacob did fine on the flight home. The first flight we both slept for an hour and he did great. We arrived 30 minutes late but it was fine. We had plenty of time to find our gate. The flight from Paris to Cincinnati he slept 2 hours and he got fussy and whiney through a couple of hours of it but no worse than the restaurant fits just longer. All in all he did good. The last flight he was so happy and excited. We actually arrived 15 minutes early. We got off the plane running. He was a little shy with everyone at first, even James, but within a few minutes he let James hold him. We went to eat at Cracker Barrel and the food was wonderful. :) He did great, no fits!!!! When we started to get out of the car Gladys opened the door on Jacob's side and I handed him to her and he was fine with it. She even carried him inside. He let her hold him one more time. He slept on the way home, he was so tired. He slept 11 hours.
Mama was able to hold him the next day. She bribed him by offering to go outside. She and he swung together on his new swing set. Mama said she was afraid it would be a month before she got to hold him. She was on Cloud 9 yesterday. Daddy still hasn't held him but he is playing with him. It won't be long. Jacob and his new cousin, Matthew played together so well. Jacob has even hugged Matthew twice and kissed him once. Matthew kinda hugged back but wasn't really sure what to do. It would have been a great picture. Jacob is already mimicking Matthew 's actions.
Jacob just woke up and is saying Mama, Daddy, Mama, Daddy so I will post more later.
We still need your prayers. Jacob has some health issues that we checking on that could require surgery. I will post more details later. God knows the need.
We love you all and are soooooo glad to be home.
Love,
JTJ

Teresa,
Jacob is so adorable!! I'm sitting here crying as I'm reading your "Home at Last" blog because I know how hard this whole process has been for you and to finally see the end results makes me so happy for you all. I am thrilled that you have a son, I know he will be a Momma's baby, and believe me when I say, that will never change!! Congratulations and I look forward to meeting your sweet little boy! See you soon.
Much Love,
Misty
Teresa - So glad you're home. It was wonderful to meet you and Jacob. We are home now, too! We got home on my birthday - the 15th. Would love to talk after we both have had some time to "decompress!" love you, Beth
I hope that you are adjusting to your new life at home with Jacob. Things may feel a little overwhelming at first, but it will get better. I would love to chat when things get back to "normal".
