We did it-We have a gate!

I didn't want to do it but Mikey has taken in a interest in the stairs where he never really had before. And there was an incident involving me at home with Mikey and finding him playing in his room. Alone. Upstairs. While I was downstairs. Ugh!

Mikey is not a fan of the gate.

Golden-Coors Tour

Here's a confession...I've never been to the Coors tour. I know right? Uncle Thaddeus came to town so off we went.

The tour did not disappoint and I voted myself tour director of the day!

Vegas - Part 2

When looking up things to do in Vegas with a lil one, the Shark Reef was recommended

My goodness, not only do they look alike but...

We also hit up some arcades. Senior looks much more intense than Jr.

Another celebrity sighting! SpongeBob!

I was again worried about the plane ride home but I was quickly put at ease.

Vegas was definitely different this time around but we've had our fun and it was the best to spend time with Mikey.

Memorial Day - Vegas! Part 1

Waiting for the plane!

I have to admit that we were a little scared about Mikey on the plane ride but he did awesome! He flirted some party girls behind us.

Look who was on the plane with us! Knowshon Moreno from the Broncos! I know you're thinking that Mike spotted him, being the big Bronco fan right? Oh no! It was I!

Mikey checking out the view from our awesome room. Note to anyone wanting to stay at the new PH towers: Rooms are awesome but everything else is not!

What do you do with a 15 month old in Vegas?

You check out the free shows at the Miracle Mall

You sit on the steps at the new City Center

Of course the M&M store

There were mornings we got in the stroller (well Mikey did) and we went to get coffee in our jammies

A good ol fashioned roll on the floor is pretty cool

Bellagio Fountains that actually scared Mikey.

Here's the frozen hot chocolate that we'd heard so much about from Serendipity. All I can say is "No me gusto!". Translation : Eww!! So disappointed.

Sometimes you got stretch your legs and run through hallways like crazy

And you must get into the pool in Vegas!

Since last time....

Our cousin Elmer got married and it also debuted Mikey's cool hair cut!
