Phoenix take two.

Every time I type Phoenix I have to double check and make sure it isn’t really spelled Pheonix. Pho- seems ridiculous, Phe- seems so much better but it isn’t my city to deal with so whatever.

Did you need more pictures? Yeah, me too.

Friday we ventured out to the rack and had lunch at Paradise. Oh, how I wish we had better restaurants in Redding! (My list includes Pei Wei, Paradise, Zuppas, and Noodles and Co) Going outside in Arizona for anything is like visiting Satan’s beach house on the surface of the sun. Ridiculous. Hair up everyday.

 The best part of the few days I visited was all the time we just sat around and talked. We nursed our babies.  We laughed when JR told us stories. We watched a crazy dust storm. We talked about milk production and birth and food and how much we love to sleep. I think we both thought we would swap babies for most of the weekend but it turns out our babies prefer their mothers! Who knew. Morgan and JR are doing such a wonderful job nurturing and loving baby Margo. She is so sweet and happy and I just want to bite her rolly little leggies. Linc seemed so big and grown up in comparison to her newness and it made me happy/sad because I love babies. So much changes in 6 months.

Theo loves babies too.

We are sisters, I swear.

Linc’s favorite part was theo, for sure. I would throw the dog toy for him and Linc just thought it was the funniest thing ever.

 Sadly, on Sunday I packed my things up and headed home. After three nights of Lincoln’s worst sleeping habits ever, (by far. seriously.) I was so nervous about the two hour flight. Prayers were answered when there were a few open seats and I was able to bring his carseat onto the flight. Seriously, I cried a little bit I was so happy. Linc fell asleep on takeoff and slept the entire flight. I read a magazine! Cover to cover! Picked up our luggage and went to find our car. Only it wasn’t where I left it!? Even though I wrote down my parking spot location, Could not find my car. You should have seen me. Dragging my 51 pound suitcase, carrying the carseat, diaper bag over my shoulder, Linc on my hip, sweat beading on my nose, with my keys in the air trying to hear the unlock beep of my car. Bless this super nice couple- they were on my flight and were making googly eyes at Linc before he fell asleep. They took my suitcase, helped me find my car, loaded it for me, and made sure it started. Nice people exist.

Hi, I am handome and charming and great at flying.
