Henry 4 month check up and Arizona Trip

So once again I have been a slacker in the blogging department!! Henry went for his 4 month check up and definitely growing. For his weight he was in the 20%, his head size in the 50% and his height 80%! He is a happy baby and loves his big sisters! Lucy loves to get in his face and he loves it!!
Last week went on a trip to Arizona to watch some spring training baseball games! We had a ton of fun. Sam's sisters family and his parents came with us!! We stopped in Vegas for the night on the way down and decided to see Hoover Dam. We didn't go on a Dam tour cause it was to much money! :) We finally got to Phoenix on Monday and just relaxed. On Tuesday we went to the Phoenix Zoo! That place was Huge!! There was so much to do. We spent 3 hours there and didn't get to do everything! After the zoo we headed to our first baseball game of the week! The temperature was in the high 80s that day! We sat out on the grass and just had fun. The kids got a little bored but there was enough electronic things to keep them busy! But boy was it hot!! After the game we headed back to the hotel to swim and relax for the night! On Wednesday we went to Chase Field, Home of the Arizona DiamondBacks and took the tour! It was very neat! Especially when they took us to the Dugout! Sam was so excited! From there we headed to our next baseball game. This time the girls and the little kids sat in the shade of tree not watching the game while the boys and mimi went and watched the game! The temperature was in the 90s that day! After the game it was back to the hotel for swimming and relaxing! On Thursday we went to this western town called Rawhide. It's a family place where you can go watch a shoot out, ride the coach, go on a train ride, pan for gold(spray painted rocks:), ride a burrow, pet some neat animals and all kinds of other fun western stuff!! The kids loved it! We spent 5 hours there in the hot weather and loved every minute of it. Lucy got to ride the burrows. You had to be 40 inches tall and she was a bit to short but the lady was nice enough to let her go when Lucy stood on her tippy toes to try and make herself tall enough! From there we went to the hotel to relax for a bit before we headed to our final baseball game. It was a night game and everyone seemed to enjoy it more then the day games! It wasn't nearly as hot! On friday we headed home! We made it Cedar City and decided to stay there the night and swim then headed home on Saturday! It was an awesome trip! Here are a lot of pictures. Of the kids and our trip!
