We arrived here on June 15 (almost the 16th--thanks to the delay at the Chicago airport). The flight was very LOOOOOOOONG, but all the little ones did very well. None of them was THAT kid--the one that everyone dreads on a long flight--screaming as the air pressure makes their head explode. Baby N was (as predicted) the hardest to keep occupied, but we managed with a little help from our (mango-smuggler) friend from India, Rita.
Little A fell down (or rather UP) the escalator, as Peter tried to help her to get on it on her own. That was not a pleasant experience, and it necessitated a stop at Tim Hortons for a donut on our way to my brother's place in Calgary.
Over a week later, we are feeling much better (the jet lag was hard, and we found ourselves and our little ones awake around 3 in the morning). The children's naps were very messed up, and we are still finding baby N falls asleep on every car ride now. NB S seems to be doing the best (and with a little help from Aveeno Baby, her eczema--NOT prickly heat Dr. Stiles--on her face is GONE!!) as her body operates in its own time zone no matter where we go.
We have been having an amazing time, and have seen so many of our old friends. Though tiring, I know our holiday here will be over before we know it. The little ones (A&N) are also really enjoying time with their grandparents. Though NB S is still too little, the grandparents are also really enjoying her sweet personality. She has so many smiles to share, and so much to say.
