I got up this morning thinking I was going to go on a nice little walk around the neighborhood and ended up HERE! This is Camelback Mountain in AZ...not much of a mountain if you are from Utah but no matter where you are from it is a steep and challenging hike. I only made it about one third of the way! 
Don't know why Tyler closed his eyes! These two guys kept on going and Dennis made it most of the way, Tyler went all the way. Dennis is sure we could have done it if we would have had more time to spend there but we were on somewhat of a schedule. Yup, I'm pretty sure he is right. We totally could have done it with more time. There was a 74 year old man on the trail that walks it THREE times every day. It takes a good hiker at least an hour and a half or two to do that hike. That old guy is amazing!
Below is the view as we were walking up to get on the trail head. And since I got back WAY before Dennis and Tyler I walked up and down this road to make myself feel better about coming back and pooping out. (it has a good incline) Tyler asked me if it was embarrassing walking in front of all those cars (who by the way are waiting for a parking spot so they can go hike, yup they just sit there and wait until someone leaves so they can park and then go up that torturous mountain and have all their limbs burn and feel like you can't breath and they think it's worth waiting for, I digress) anyway, yes it was somewhat humiliating to keep walking up and down the road where those cars could see me. I'm sure I helped amuse them as they were waiting for a spot to park in.
That was fun but the way our day ended was more my style. We got to go to the hospital and hold our little June Bug. Oh it feels so nice to hold a little baby that we have only been able to look at for the past eight days. She is absolutely adorable. As you can see I got to feed her. Justin gave me some great tips on how to feed her and how to burp her. They worked very nicely. Look how great I am suppporting her neck!
Gramps got to hold her for a bit as well. She is all swaddled up and doing so great. You would not even believe all the trauma she has been through in the past week when you look at her now. What a difference a week makes. Look at her perfect little head and her dark hair and her olive'ish skin and her super cute nose and her little mouth is so sweet and her long fingers and toes and her beautiful eyes! She is perfect. Oh we do love our little June Bug. Night Night baby girl, COME HOME SOON!
