Week 27

So the baby took it's first trip out of state. We just got home from Arizona and are glad we got the opportunity to go. The flight there was good but the flight home was a little rough. The baby didn't like it and I was sick to my stomach on the first flight. I am still feeling a little sick today so I am laying low. The baby also responded a lot to the pressure changes and was very active on the plane rides. I did well with all the hiking and am glad I wasn't much further along or it would have been difficult.

Nick and I filled all of our days with lots of activities. The first day in Arizona we went to Taliesin West. Frank Lloyd Wright's winter home near Phoenix. Then we went to Ashley and Adam's rehearsal dinner. The next day we went to the Phoenix Zoo. It was nice but I liked the San Antonio Zoo better. The second picture is of me by a cactus at the Zoo. We then went to Ashley and Adam's wedding. It was very nice and we got to see a fireworks show. The third day we went to Scottsdale and then drove to Sedona. The fourth day we visited Red Rock State Park (that is where the bottom picture was taken) and did lots of hiking. We then went to Slide Rock Park where Nick went down the natural rock water slide. The baby and I just spectated. The fifth day we took the train to Grand Canyon and did some more hiking. We went along the rim and only about 30 ft into the Grand Canyon. It was pretty strenuous. The sixth day we went to Meteor Crater. That is the crater behind Nick and I in the first picture. Nick enjoyed it more than the Grand Canyon. I liked it because Nick was so excited about seeing it. The seventh day we flew home.
