We have arrived home with our little American citizen, Chloe. She spent the entire time in immigrations flirting with the officers. Why does that not surprise me?
Skylar has been great with her little sister and Chloe seems interested in what she is doing. I will post more in a day or two along with some photos, but tonight my internal clock is way off. Time to go to bed and hopefully get back on PacNW time.
It sure is good to be home. Cheers!!

Welcome Home! Throughout your posts, I have felt the same excitement and happiness that radiates in that wonderful "Mom and Me" picture of you and Chloe. That says it all. I've loved the photos of Ted and Chloe, but this one was a fitting picture for the last leg of the China trip. Get your rest and bearings and we will see you when you're ready. Big Hugs to all of you!

I am so excited for your family! I am sure Skylar is going to be a wonderful big sister. I can't wait to meet Chloe. I really enjoyed reading your blog. Shannon your letter to Chloe made me cry! You are wonderful parents, congrants Gaub family on your new addition!
Welcome home! I'm glad everything is going well so far. It sounds like Chloe is doing great.
I loved your letter to Chloe! It made me cry.
We are so glad you are home safe and sound and your family is finally united. We have been with you all along the way even if we haven't posted comments. I just got back from vacation today and my first questions was, "are they home yet?" Obviously your joy shows that it was worth the wait. Enjoy every minute. We can't wait for Skylar to introduce us to her new baby sister.

Ted & Shannon! Congratulations! Jed and I are so excited for your family. Love, Jed, Angie & Sydney Garonzik.
Loved so much being able to share your family excitement with you! How are Skylar and Chloe doing together. What fun days ahead for you all and to think how long the waiting was. Sometimes, what we anticipate, we desire and appreciate most. That, you will always have with Chloe! Keep us updated with news and pictures. Much love from Denver!
