Nadia is just super easy to make friends. While waiting to go aboard, in a blink of eyes, she made friend with a boy who travels from London.

Trip to Arizona










promise to keep you up to date

Hi all, we are in Sedona, Arizona. It's Nadia's 2nd time here and Aidan's first time. We love the Red Rock in Sedona, beautiful and most importantly, we just in time running away from the snow storm back home in northeast. When we left, it was about to start, our flight got a bit delayed and we arrived in Phoenix, AZ a bit late, and unfortunately we got a bad rent a car and had to return it back to the airport and waited for a good 1 hour there to get the replacement. But we got a good car, for what's its worth.
On Monday, Nadia's preschool was closed due to the bad storm, good thing Nadia is safe and warm in Sedona, I wonder if we are home, we must be just got stuck at home.
Nadia loves swimming in the hotel. She got her own sofa bed, and Aidan slept in a mommy made crib for a day until he got his playpen. 
We had a 4 hours train ride at Verde Canyon and she made friends just like a blink of an eyes. 
Once we are back, mommy will put some pictures on this blogspot.
The weather is so nice, about 30 in the morning and night, and raised to 60s when the sun out. 
On the traveling, Nadia has been very good big sister by entertaining Aidan in the car, Aidan loves Nadia so much.

Daddy is home

Finally, Ammar came home from Atlanta. It has been very busy days, during his traveling, we went to visit Uncle Bill and Auntie Lisa. When we got home, Nadia thought that her daddy was home, too, but when she found out that she had to wait another day to see her daddy, she got so all sad. Her daddy called her, she didn't want to talk on the phone with him. Then I talked to him in the kitchen, so sudden Nadia came to me and hugged my legs and cried so sadly. She missed her daddy, and finally she talked on the phone with him crying so much and said how much she missed him.

Ammar called again at night, and told her that he has present for her..
Nadia : "What is it, daddy ?"
Ammar : "It's a suprise! You will see it when I fly back home tomorrow. I promise I will pick you up at school early"
Nadia : "Is it a horse daddy ? I know it, it's a real horse. You promised to buy it for me.. yes, it is a horse daddy!!!"
Me (oh Gosh, it's way so different than horse.. they are 3 books....)

When we picked up Nadia from school, She was so excited with her present, she had Ammar read the whole books from Dr. Seuss while I am preparing dinner. She loves her books.

Today, when Ammar went to work, she asked her dad to buy her another present... a HORSE...

That's the life of Nadia... the horse lover.

Try to get away from sleeping

Nadia sneaked out from her bedroom, came to our room, and said : "I need a hug and kisses from you, mommy, daddy!"
Ammar gave her a big hug and kisses.. she were not planning to go back to bed... excuse..excuse...

Ammar said : "Nadia.. you got your hugs and kisses! Go back to bed, please!"
Nadia (blinking her eyes... acting like she was so scared!!) : "But Daddy!!! I am so scared from the monster. The shadows in my bedroom looks like monster, with 3 fingers, right hand and left hand (showing her 3 fingers right and left, and moving them around)... it's so scary, Daddy!!!"

Ammar : (he can't hold his laugh, he laughed and gave her a big hug) and said : "Come one, I take you to your room"

FYI : Nadia now sleeps with the light on.. I wonder who she takes after... MOMMY FROGGY!!!
