It has been a family tradition since I was a little girl to spend one week out of every year up north.
We own a time share in Flagstaff, Arizona at the Wyndham Resort.
Lucky for us, I was still on maternity leave so I was able to bring you up for the WHOLE week.
Auntie Ash, Uncle Ryan and Michelle came up for a couple of days.
Daddy was able to drive up for a few days.
Papa, Grammie, Me and You stayed the entire week.
Our drive up:
You did great. We stopped once in Camp Verde so I could change you and feed you.
(Yes, you like to sleep in your car seat with your head sideways like this. How can this be comfortable little man?)
We were greeted by the chilly mountain air & afternoon monsoon storms.
I love the smell of the pine trees and golf course - it felt good to be back.
We gave you a bath and got you all ready to go out to dinner - Oregano's! YUM.
Papa & Grandma enjoyed your company this year
It was pretty chilly so we put you in your MONKEY jammies - too cute!
(You even had a T A I L!)
GOOOOD MORNING SUNSHINE!
Daddy had to leave Wednesday Morning
We had so much fun going on stroller rides, walking around downtown, playing games, visiting my favorite restaraunts, walking down to Bear Paw Clubhouse, and most of all just spending time all together at our place.
(you will probably be walking, ahhh...)

SWEET BOY!!
Playing with Mommy!
You enjoyed hanging out with Mama, Papa & Grammie the rest of the week.
It had been over a year since I had been back in town. Mama moved back to the valley in July of last year. Last year when I left I never would have guessed that the next time I was up there I would have my sweet angel boy. Life is wonderful.

You were spoiled on this trip because we didn't have your crib -- you got to sleep with me.
Best little snuggle buddy!
On Thursday Me & You dropped Grammie off for her massage and then went and checked out Mama and Daddys first apartment together.

After,
We went and visited Flagstaff Pediatric Dentistry.
This is where I worked during my time up here. All of my friends could not wait to meet you, handsome.
They all oooed and ahhhed at all of your hair and how adorable you were.
It was so nice to be back! & especially with YOU!
On Friday we went to Fratellis Pizza with most of the staff and some of the families/kids.
I couldn't believe they gave up their Friday afternoon with such sort notice just to hang with us.
They are soo sweet!
Saturday we packed up and left in the morning.
It was such an awesome trip - filled with lots of memories!
UNTIL NEXT YEAR. IT'S BEEN REAL.
