Vegas Babies!

We are back from Vegas but still reminiscing about the wonderful time we had there! Although I was looking forward to the trip for months, I was somewhat concerned with taking a two year old across the country to an adult playground. It turned out to be one of the best experiences! Drew absolutely loved Vegas and we all had a amazing time! There was so much to do and we packed lots of activities into our days. We stayed at the Mandalay Bay which was gorgeous and had an unbelievable pool with a beach and lazy river. We rented a beach bungalow two days and took full advantage of the beautiful weather. I was able to see three shows; Tony & Tina's Wedding, Mystere (a Cirque du Soleil show) and David Spade. Tony & Tina's wedding was funny and very entertaining, Mystere was simply amazing and David Spade was hilarious! I have to thank my parents and Judy for watching Drew three nights in a row! We also did tons of site seeing and checked out as many casinos as possible. Drew and Whitley loved the shark reef at Mandalay Bay, the lion habitat at MGM, the flowers and butterflies at Bellagio, the statues and aquariums at Caesars and the gorgeous scenery at the Venetian. Both kids were perfect the entire trip! I was amazed at how they adjusted to the time change and just how great they were overall. I guess they were having so much fun that there wasn't anything to be upset about. It didn't hurt that they had doting grandparents with them at all times and got to eat fast food every day! Thank you Mom and Dad for a fabulous trip!!! There are lots of pictures below...

Lovin' the lazy river!

Drew watches TV and eats Cheetos while taking a break in the beach bungalow. What a set-up!

Chillin' in the bungalow.

The grandparents with the babies. They don't want to look at the camera, they just want CC to hold them :)

Day Day helps Drew give money to a mime at the Venetian. Drew was scared though and is still telling me about the "scary white man" he saw.

Judy, Drew and I at the Venetian. What a beautiful place!

Drew patiently waits for someone to take him down the lazy river...again!

Drew spent quite a bit of time like this on our trip but he didn't mind one bit. He loved taking in all of the sites from the comfort of his stroller.

Bye Bye Las Vegas and the Mandalay Bay!
