Wanted to tell you about Freddy’s restaurant. It is yummy, and if you have the chance to go – do so!
I had to capture this photo: Arabella fell asleep on me. She looks so tiny on my legs, especially in that diaper (which looks big on her but she is just small). The other photos are of a loveable cat. Jake! John-Jacob-Jingleheimer-Schmidt! He has been especially cuddly lately. Even so far as to snuggle the wife even after she has him wear his tie.
We had a late-season snowstorm hit Flagstaff and the surrounding area. This gave us an opportunity to venture north and let the little girl see some snow for the first time.
On the way around we hit some muddy roads (and thankfully our car handled it like a trooper). She did get a little dirty though. She pretty much matched the Red Rocks of Sedona. We also stopped at the Chapel in Sedona on the way down. It is beautiful how it’s built right into the surroundings.
We eventually got a carwash (see below) and it looked so much better – but that photo with the dirt and the red rock looks pretty cool.
Back at home, Arabella got some shots and was super tired afterward (which is pretty normal, or so they tell us). The wife and I both took turns holding her (Maryia held her while she was awake, then snuck her to me when she was asleep so she wouldn’t notice/start crying).
People at work have been really nice. Merrilee made a blanket and gave it to us. Tyree (also from work) gave us a Jordan outfit. I think she looks amazing and took a photo to share (see above). I have got to show him this photo! I mean – really. She is adorable.
just Pray
