Craving Sunshine

If I'd have any cravings so far this pregnancy, I'd have to put SUNSHINE on the top of that list. It makes it very convenient that my good friend Becky and her family live in the Phoenix area, so I decided to go pay them a visit. The girls and I made the road trip with no problems... well, Havi threw up once, but that was about it.

Teah was on the look out for a cactus, and she saw plenty. We had to stop once so she could get out and touch one- she was actually scared. Havi was fearless enough to fall... she almost landed on one, but only landed next to it where the pokey things got all over her hands and knees.

Becky and Steve let us stay with them and their cute little family. They have Jaxton who is the same age as Havi. He's such a sweet little (but not really little) boy. Teah would have brought their little Makaelyn (7 months) home with us... I wouldn't have minded that one bit, she's such a good baby. It was fun to spend time with Becky, I wish she was closer and we could hang out more!

The girls loved being able to go to the park... in shorts and tanks. We had plenty of good food (In n Out, Oreganos... mmmmm). Then it was back in the car to drive home. Teah and I played a game on the magna-doodle where we tried guessing what word the other was writing. Teah guessed all mine (fat, cat, hat, etc.) and she had some good ones for me to guess- I had to take pictures of some of my favorites. Can you guess them?

Looks like you three had so much fun. Road trips are great once kids reach a certain age... and your kids are it! I love Teah's writing!!
