Southwest Vacation - Arizona Part 3, exploring Walnut Canyon and Flagstaff
After the Grand Canyon, we were fine with sticking closer to home. I had found quite a few interesting stops in the general area, but we all agreed driving more than like 15 minutes was not going to happen. The closest place was Walnut Canyon National Monument.
An ancient Native American tribe in this area, the Sinagua people, built homes into the rocks at around 1100 to save themselves from all the complications of living near volcanic eruptions (nearby Sunset Crater had a series of eruptions in 1040). They only stayed in these cliff dwellings for about 4 generations (100 years) and then moved on. There were little constructed rooms all over the cliffs. It was fascinating. And beautiful. We were happy to be able to interact with the scenery.
Tristan discovered his eye for photography and took tons of pictures with my old phone. He's got a really great instinct for framing photos and pays attention to foreground/mid-ground/background all at once. He did it all: from textu…

I meant to ask you this before but did you go from having Noah sleep in his crib straight to sleeping on the twin matress?Or did you lower his crib rail for a while first?Is there a certain way you're suppose to do it? :)Heidi is going through this with her daughter ,Paris and it is not working so far.She has tried switching straight to a toddler bed...let me in on any wisdom you have about this :)I will need to know soon too!Thanks!
Love,Brit
It might help to bring things from the old crib like the sheets and blankets. Is Paris scared? Does she keep getting out? I may be able to help better. It just depends on why she's not taking to the bed.
