Back in Texas

Well, we made it back to Texas last night. It was a great trip and we barely managed to stuff all of Astraea's gifts in the car to come home. She really cleaned up. We got there on Sunday night, well actually 3:30 am Monday morning. Gramma Dorothy seemed happy to see us though. On Monday we just tried to get her settled in. She was having a hard time adjusting to a new place and so many new people. It was kind of a rough day. Tuesday was a little better. Doug's grandparents have a Christmas party every year for family and friends and it was a lot of fun for us, but she wasn't too impressed. On Wednesday we had her christened at the Christmas Eve service at their church. It was a beautiful service and she acted like an angel. We were so proud. Thursday morning we got up early and checked out our stockings and let Astraea play with her big toy. And then everyone came over to exchange gifts. It was a lot of fun and we got some great stuff! All in all, it was a success. Now we know that it will get easier and easier to travel with her.
