Well we made it to Ohio. The 24 hours of travel went very well!! Ella was perfect on the plane. She didn't sleep much but was happy to walk around and play on the plane. The flight attendants just wooed and awed over her the whole time. When we got off the plane in Philly we got many compliments on how well behave our daughter was and of course how adorable she is. We had a 2 hour layover in Philly but thank goodness they had an amazing USO! We hung out there grabbed some food and played with Ella (they had a whole corner of toys for babies) It took Ella about 3 days to adjust to the time difference, but wouldn't sleep through the whole night the whole time we were home!! We just got her finally sleeping through the night a couple weeks before we left. So we are back to square one here in England. But other than lack of sleep (which I'm pretty much use to now) our trip was alot of fun!!

My mom loves to host open houses when we are home...A. it makes it much easier on us to see everyone and B. gives us a little break since there are tons of people to see Ella. We had alot of fun and Ella got to meet some of her new Ohio friends. Gammy of course had to buy matching outfits for Claire and Ella. Claire picked them out! They are so warm and cozy perfect for the sub zero temps in Ohio!!
