Arizona Trip

Madaelyn and I went to Arizona!! {a month ago} 
 
That is how we fly with a toddler! {I also recommend stickers!!}
Yup, its been a month since I posted, and I am working on tons of things to post… but, back to Arizona!!
We loved being in the warm, sunny temperature {80 degrees the day we left and came home to 15 degree weather….my body was in shock!} We visited with family, went to Sedona one day, and I ran my first half marathon!! My fist half marathon will be post for itself as it is a story of its own!
Sedona:
We went to Sedona for a day, and loved it!  The environment was a bit cooler than Phoenix, but the red rocks and city were ah-mazing! 
   

We even went on a pink jeep tour.



I promise she liked it.

 



 

Where the rugged terrain rocked my baby to sleep!  It was also the first time she faced forward in a vehicle!!

   

We also had a great time with family, and I absolutely loved having M hang out with my cousin who is close to her age! She just kept hugging her.
   
That’s just a snap shot of our trip, it was amazing.
The desert has a tendency to heal me and I’m so glad we went!

Be Well,

Arizona Bound.

 

So, Madaelyn and I took our first trip via plane ride together.  I being a first time mother and it being her first trip via airplane was super nervous.  It was a 4.5hr flight an oh.my.gosh. what if she cries the whole time, and there’s turbulence, and I can’t walk her around to calm her down?!?!? I will be that person the whole plane hates.

and yes. the plane was full.

Thankfully that was not even an issue in the slightest! In fact people commended Madaelyn’s fabulous plane etiquette both to and from Arizona!!

{but you all knew she would be an excellent flyer since she is so mannerable at home anyways, right? right!.}

Here are some highlights of our trip:

I may be a tad bit addicted to the way my child looks in leg warmers…. what can I say?  She looks ah-dor-able. I cannot wait until it is warm enough to rock that look at home in Pa.

Arizona was absolutely superb. We l.o.v.e.d. it.  Warm weather, family, no humidity {score for easy hair days, minus for a bloody nose the first night there…}

If you have not ventured to the desert I must say it is a beautiful place.  You should definitely try it.
