After a month away from home we are headed back to California, warm weather... here we come!!!
Emma takes her first flight at 9 days old! She slept for 90% of the flight!
We arrived in Orange County, John Wayne airport and was greeted by my BFF Christina waiting patiently with Emma's Welcome Home sign! With all that Christina and I have been through together during our individual journeys to parenthood, this moment was an another amazing milestone! Needless to say there were a lot of happy tears!!!
We rounded the corner to the house and what a surprise it was to see a cute little stork in the yard!
Soon after our arrival at the house the rest of the O'Connor family and California Grandma Sue arrived to meet Emma.
At first the girls were just a little cautious... but then warmed right up to her and they each wanted their turn holding her! By the end of the night they had each had their turns!
Grandma Sue got to be the first to feed her.
The bassinet she is in is actually from Sue's family. It was built in 1922 and has a long list of family members that have had children or grandchildren that have stayed in it. Sue really wanted Emma to have her turn sleeping in the family bassinet. We love being part of the Ballotti family!
