Flying back to India!

Well, we made it back to India! We've been back for almost two weeks now, and we're finally starting to get over jetlag (minus the kids still waking up at 5 a.m.). 

Here's a recap of our journey back...update on the first couple of weeks back coming soon!

The weekend before we left, we had some great time with our families in Kansas City.

Layla was watching an old school VHS of The Lion King at Nana's house. Talk about reliving my childhood!

These cousins born 3 months apart are destined to be good friends!

ALL of the cousins from both sides of the family! At least now that Landon has a brother he has another boy :)

Hanging out in the airport

Our families went with us to the airport on Monday, and we got all 9 of our suitcases + one carseat checked. Phew! We tearfully said goodbyes to our families and then went to wait at our gate.

Thank goodness we had Hannah to travel with us! We would never have made it without her

Snoozing waiting for our plane to arrive so we could board

 On the first plane, a short flight from KC to Chicago

We almost almost ALMOST missed our connecting flight in Chicago to Doha, Qatar. Like, the literally held the plane for us and we were running through the terminal (well, fast walking as well as I could with Mason in the Ergo baby carrier and pulling a suitcase and holding Landon's hand. Oh my what a nightmare). By the grace of God we made it in time to get on the plane for the 12 hour flight from Chicago to Doha. 

Thankfully, the kids slept really well on this flight. Here's Mason in his little bassinet: 

My wonderful husband made SURE when he added Mason's ticket to our flights that they gave me the bassinet seat. I love my husband.

We had a little layover in Doha and then had another 5 hour flight to India. Overall, the flights were super smooth and the kids did great, considering they were cooped up on an airplane for that long. We're so thankful!
