Mr. Noah Benjamin Hui became a US Citizen the moment we landed! After 42 hours from the time we left China, we are tired but so thankful to be home.
This is our first site off the plane.... My parents, Alexis, Alaina, Hudson, Chris, Jennifer, Lydia and Isabella were waiting. Hudson hugged each of us...and squealed with delight. 
My two baby boys....felt so good. Aren't they cute in their matching shirts? Hudson tilted his head and so sweetly talked to Benjamin as he caressed his back. Alaina was so sweet,too....and loved on her little brother.
Alexis grabbed him quickly as she has so been dreaming of this special moment. Ben didn't want to leave his mama's arms so she sadly gave him back. 
Then...Renee, Kayla, Jessie and Emily came to greet us.

Scott and Greyson came to help us drive everybody home. Our van holds 8 people....my parents made 10..so we needed help getting home.
Ben's first carseat ride. He didn't like leaving my arms and being strapped in a carseat at all. After we were driving, he was fine and sat there so peaceful. He loves looking out the windows.
As we pulled into the drive way, we saw the balloons and a baby boy sign on the front door. Jennifer and family decorated for our return. Such a sweet welcoming home. 
The little people hit if off right away. Aren't they cute sucking on their finger (Hudson), thumb (Alaina), and bubba rag (Benjamin)? What bonding...
They played and played outside. Ben didn't want to touch the grass as I'm sure this was the first time seeing grass. Hudson was so cute being so gentle with Benjamin and giving him toys.
Back in the house, Benny was introduced to our play room, "Toy Land Central". I sat in the PlayYard with them for awhile and they so enjoyed playing together. 
Benny wanted to feed himself like Hudson. Our first dinner together. We are still figuring out seating arrangements.
My parents said goodbye and we all got ready for bed.
Benjamin loves the standing bath and actually laughs when I put water over his head. He was so tired that smiling was not going to happen at this point...so we settled for this. He is so cute no matter what expression.

We had a great night's sleep. I rocked him to sleep in the rocker and then slowly put him in the pack n play beside my bed. He woke up at 4AM wanting in the bed with me and slept the rest of the night with us. He got about 12 hours sleep and woke up such a happy boy!
