We had such a great time on vacation! We were able to use our condo in Vegas for the first time and it was fabulous! You can see from one of the pictures below our view of the pool from our master bedroom. We have a 2 bedroom condo in the Planet Hollywood Westgate Towers but if we want, we can break it up and use the studio side one year and the one-bedroom suite the next. Since we were busy having lil B last year, we had the entire thing - sleeps 8! - to use up this year so we invited the Boydstuns along. It was a great time - had by all, I think! Since B wakes up at 6am on the dot here in Texas, it meant that at 4am, he was up and at 'em in Vegas. This killed most of my desire to do anything after 7 since I was so exhausted come 4! It shifted how we typically relax in Vegas but we had so much fun taking B out, that we didn't care. And Vegas is quiet, cool and just calm at 4 am so we definitely saw a different side than before.
Here we are in anticipation of Breck's first flight. We just wished the smiles had lasted! He was cranky on the plane and didn't want to take his nap, at least not willingly! In the last 20 minutes, our pilot decided to imitate a roller coaster. Poor B got so quiet and his eyes got wide then before we knew it, he was puking everywhere - mostly on Brian! We had another outfit for Breck ready to go but Brian wasn't so lucky :(
This is one of our early morning strolls. The fountains outside of the Bellagio make for a great picture!
Here's the view from our room I mentioned earlier.
Swimming turned out to be one of our favorite things to do - go figure in the desert! They had a shallow area so B loved crawling around in the pool.
Breck started eating everything in sight in Vegas - here he even couldn't resist the menu at the Sugar Factory - great name! and even better tasting food!! Breck tried all kinds of new foods for the first time - pancakes, potatoes, chicken, steamed veggies, fruit but his favorite all week was a croissant. Loves books and French cuisine - I just know he is my child!
We were so glad we brought his big stroller - it made taking him places so much easier and the shade it offered was great. Breck got to where he expected puffs in the little snack holder in the front and if it was empty, he would just keep swishing his hand around until we got the hint.
We took bath time to a whole new level in the suite!
There's an aquarium in the Forum Shops at Casear's. We stayed there forever with Breck just watching the fish swim by. The sting ray was obsessed with B and wherever he was, the sting ray would swim over to him.
He wasn't diggin the hat, but I was!! So cute!!
Before we knew it, it was time to head back. We were a little apprehensive about the flight home (here he is ready to board) but it went fantastically well. He slept easily, played happily and everyone told us what a great little traveller he was. It was awesome.
