Miss Annabelle had a tough time sleeping at the hotel in her pack and play. She’s usually a great sleeper but she really likes her crib at night so we’ve found when we take her on the road she doesn’t do quite as well. She was still on Denver time so we were up at 5:45 a.m. on Sunday. She was ready to go so we got ready, had breakfast, and started our drive up to Phoenix. She slept the entire way and B and I enjoyed the desert scenery – it reminded us a lot of our trips from NM to Denver during our college years. When we got to Dan’s place Annabelle was well rested and in a great mood. We were finally able to meet Dan and Pearl’s kids. They have a 2 year old, Inez, and 9 month old twins, Irene and William. What a fun afternoon! Annabelle loved playing with the kids and it was so funny to see them all interact together.

At Chase Stadium in Phoenix

We were able to get in a few innings of the Diamondbacks game. The tickets were really cheap (only $5) so we didn’t feel bad watching only a few innings. Annabelle and I split a soft pretzel – one our favorites! This is her 5th ballpark in her short little 11 months of life. B was just saying he didn’t go to a game until he was 10 years old so she’s doing really well! We had to take off early to get back to Tucson for dinner but we were able to see a few innings and enjoy the a.c. in the domed stadium.

Back in Tucson we had dinner with the wedding party. We went to another Mexican place, which I was told is a sister-restaurant to El Churro which we went to the day before. It was nice to see everyone and Miss Annabelle was a big hit. She had two good naps so she really turned it on at dinner. She was smiling and dancing and went to town on cheerios and cheese.
