Week 41 - March 3 - 9, 2011 - 40 Weeks Old

VEGAS, BABY!

Uncles Kevin and Tommy bought Mommy and Daddy this fabulous trip to Las Vegas for Christmas, and I got to tag along...how's that for fantastic?

We left on a Wednesday and returned on Saturday and had the most wonderful time.  On the flight to Vegas, I pretty much slept the whole way.  I really am the best travelling kid in the history of travelling kids, if I do say so myself!  When we got to Vegas, we met Grammy and Grampa at the airport and got in a big van to go to our hotel.

We stayed in a big suite at the Bellagio hotel where they have a really cool water fountain show and a really fast elevator.  I wasn't so sure I liked the elevator (we stayed on the 34th floor!), but I do have to say I liked the room.  WOWZA!  There were two bedrooms, a living room and a dining room...AND FIVE toilets in our suite (yes, FIVE).  Mommy said she'd never seen so many potties. 

We pretty much ate our way through Vegas.  The first night, we went to dinner at the Eiffel Tower restaurant.  I was SOOOOO good throughout almost the whole dinner.  About two hours in, I started to get a little fussy and one of the fancy restaurant men mysteriously appeared with a DVD player.  I'd never seen one of those before.  He had "A Bee Movie" playing.  I was absolutely TRANSFIXED by it.  I'd like to get one of those things, please!

Kaety watching "A Bee Movie"

The next day, Uncles Kevin, Tommy, Grampa Ward, and Daddy all went and JUMPED off the top of the Stratosphere.  I watched them FLY through the air and land in front of me on the observation platform.  It was really nifty, though all the "woo hoo'ing" that everyone was doing was a little scary and I did start crying at one point!  Afterwards, we went to eat at a Cheeseburger joint (notice the eating theme?  I come by my love of food naturally!).  I demonstrated my table-dancing skills at the restaurant (it's NOT what you are thinking!)...

What?  Did you see my cool dancing skills!?

The last day, we went to the pool and I pretty much slept in my stroller for the whole two and a half hours we were there.  Then, I went and hung out with Daddy for the afternoon while Mommy and the Uncles and Grammy and Grampa went for massages.  Afterward, we went to a fancy-schmancy dinner again.  I was not really having any of that, the dinners were getting BORING, so I made sure Mommy and Daddy had to play with me a lot...see Daddy and me below?  Isn't he a good Daddy!? :)

Unfortunately, we had to leave "the good life" and come home.  I slept most of the plane ride (again), but did wake up for our landing, which was super fantabulous.  I'm a big fan of looking out the airplane window...it's FASCINATING! 

It was nice to get home, though...I really missed my doggies and sleeping in my own bed!  I hope you had a good week too!
