wow it has been a long time. i actually have been in phoenix for the past week and a half so i have been having lots of fun. i posted a ton of pictures for those who want to see how much fun i had. i was so busy and ate for like 7 days straight that i actually got sick before i came home. it was yucky but oh well.
for the first week we stayed with my mother in law and had a blast just hanging out and talking. mikenna and andon missed there nana and were at her side the whole time.
i found out on this trip that my kids love washing dishes. who knew?
this mini guitar was a hit toy and there was lots of music and dancing with it.
my sister in law april and kelton
john's nana came from tucson and the kids enjoyed seeing her along with all the family that came down to see us.
the kids with their cousins jaiden and sean
jaiden, alexis, kelton, mikenna, andon, and sean (i own half of the grandkids... way fun)
MOTHERS DAY!!!!
mikenna and andon looking great for church
my wonderful husband and me.
me and kelton....
and andon...
and mikenna. she surprised me with this beautiful rose for mothers day. she is so sweet!
we took a trip to the movies and saw the hannah montana movie (it was really good i thought)
and we went to the mall which was awesome considering i live by a crapy mall
john and i went to a diamondbacks game with my brother bobby and sister in law rachel. we had a lot of fun
i had a wonderful lunch and afternoon visiting with my friends from my old ward. i also saw my friends stefany and kim but i have no pictures of them.
jenny, me, danielle, jaimi, kelly, becca, and jill
mikenna and andon enjoyed playing with lots of friends
kelton with his buddy dylan who is 5 days older than him and a "little bit" bigger. my baby is so little.
john left home and i went to my sister's jessica for the rest of the week and weekend to stay with her. she had her first baby in december and i hadn't seen him yet so i was so excited to see them
here is my 5 month old nephew braxton. he is so cute and he has the most luscious lips and chubby cheeks.
this is john and braxton before he went home
mikenna made him laugh a lot
3 months apart and almost the same size
my sister has two 9 week old huge great dane puppies and kelton spent most of his time getting licked by them in the face or standing at the window watching them
braxton and kelton in the bath
my sis, nephew, and brother in law joshica (that is what i call him)
so the craziest part of the vacation was when i flew home with 3 kids by myself and carried kelton, a backpack, my purse, a car seat, and two other kids through the airport. it is not something i would do regularly but i think i could handle it once a year. the kids had there ups and down but they were pretty okay overall. it was a long day

It was so great to see you. We just can't seem to get enough of the Baker family. Jon, we missed you!
Ditto to what Jenny said. It was wonderful to see you. Wish it could have been longer.
I cannot believe how much Janelle and Jessica look alike. They could be twins! That last picture of you is a good one! The one with you and Jessica's baby. I'm glad you were able to come visit me! Next time I'll make the drive out to the west side when you visit. I'm glad you made it home safe and "survived" the airport with 3 kids and all that baggage! You are brave to even attempt that!
no no no silly. your baby is not small, my baby is just huge. it was so fun to see the comparison :) thanks for visiting just in time. loved seeing you and the kiddos again.
It was so so so much fun seeing you!!!! Braxton and I miss you guys already!! We can't wait til you come down again for Christmas!
It looks like you packed a lot in. I loved the pictures that told the story. I'm glad you survived the airport:) It was fun to see pictures of you guys along with Jessica and Bobby with their other halves. Miss you guys. Hope to see you soon.
We totally missed you while you were gone. But I am jealous that you got to see the fam. I can't wait till we can go visit. Glad your back safe.
Awesome pictures of your trip to Phoenix. I enjoyed seeing Braxton and Kelton in their little great-grandma towels! Grandma Baker must have had a fantastic week with her grandchildren!
wow i bet that was crazy being in the airport by yourself with your kids! I am jealous you got to go to AZ! How fun! So is Jessica and her hubby gonna move to Texas with all the rest of you? And Bobby too? Ok so Jessica's baby boy looks exactly like her! It's hilarious! He is adorable! Kelton is getting so big!
