Home Sweet Home

We arrived home last night around 10:30pm. Thankfully no hitches on our flight home and the kids were SUPER good. We got 2 seats together and 1 the row behind. So Stephen didn't sit too far away. The kids just watched their DVD player and ate snacks. Madeline even fell asleep the last hour. On our descent James started getting cranky and wanted to get off of my lap. So I let him stand between my legs. Well he gets all quiet and starts pushing to have a BM...great. So I didn't disturb him and let him stand that way while we landed. He continued to do his thing while the plane was taxi to the gate. I was trying to wake Madeline up when the teenage girl sitting next to her asked me, "What is her name?". I said, "Madeline" and she responded, "That's my name too!". She then asked, "What is your son's name?" and I responded, "James". She said in amazement, "That's MY brother's name too!". He was sitting 3 seats over across the aisle with his parents. Isn't that a crazy coincidence!!? She even spelled her name the same as Madeline and also went by Maddy. I had to ask their middle names, those were different of course. Their family was from CA and visiting their aunt here in Austin.

Anyhow, we got off the plane and James was still pushing. So we sat in the gate area and he finally did his thing. Poor guy, he felt a lot better though. On our drive home we were starving so we picked up some WHATABURGER. Stephen, Madeline and I stayed up until 1am not used to the time change of course. Unfortunately James still woke at 7:30am this morning. So I had to get up. But Madeline and Stephen got to sleep in until almost noon!
