Family Pics Around Vegas

We did A LOT in Vegas....we explored and our legs took us there! One day we had 23,000 steps.

I was nervous to travel with the babes but they are AMAZING travelers. They were great on the plane, thank you Lord. They slept well, thank you Lord. They loved walking around in the strollers and being carried around, thank you Lord. It made for a great trip. The hardest part was mealtime; Josie is not much of an eater so for her to stay still in public while the rest of us ate was not happening. Otherwise we all behaved well. We have ton more pics but for the sake of time; I'm uploading our family pics throughout our four day mini-vacation.


This is at our hotel; The Flamingo. It had an animal sanctuary in the back. We were tring to pose with the flamingos there.

This was a first time trip for Curt and I as well to Vegas. We enjoyed it and I was pleasantly suprised at how much I did. It was way cleaner and family friendly than I imagined; I don't know if that's because it was spring break and lots of people headed that way? But I wouldn't change our trip with the kids at all; well maybe, maybe I would make it longer!


Things we did: M&M world, MGM lions, New York/New York, Mandalay Bay Aquarium, Treasure Island Pirate ship, The Mirage volcano, the Bellagio light and water show, Circus/Circus, Fremont Street, hotel walking, trinket shop shopping,

5 Months Old!





Well our boy is 5 months old already; I'm shocked...that's almost a half a year! Yikes. Time for another :)

A few things about our man:
1. He started rolling on Mother's Day! He was 4 months and 3 weeks old.
2. We started him on veggies and LOVES them all. We started fruit for his 5 month b-day and seemed to like those as well.
3. He had an ear infection this month so I had to take him in to the doc; he weighed 18lbs4oz dressed! So we'll say he's 18 pounds!
4. He is a ladies man! He loves to smile and coo with the ladies.
5. He says mama! Not really but he is making lots of different sounds and has figured out that he can get loud and squeal! He has got a really great belly laugh.
6. We're not sleeping through the night; generally he gets up between 1:30 and 2:30 and then again around 6. We're almost there.
7. He can sit up unsupported for about 3-5 seconds before falling forwards or backwards.

8. He loves to grab things and pull them to his mouth or to reach for his toes. No toes in his mouth though.

9. We love him! We love him! We love him!
