After seizing up my belly and asking how far along I am, the next question everyone is starting to ask me now is the oh so daunting "so are you ready for a baby?" Although I am so excited I just can't stand it, I'm also not quite used to the idea of how tied down I'll be once the baby decides to show his cute little self (And yes, his cuteness will put other babies to shame.) My good friend/co-worker Jennifer came up with a solution of my pre-mom restfulness. Weekend party in Vegas!On the Plane to Vegas.
Friday night we went straight from our flight to the Strip and walked through the butterfly gardens and watched the fountain show outside the Bellagio
Saturday morning we went to the Mandalay Bay Shark Reef Aquarium.
Then walked through the forum shops in Caesars Palace.
And went through a session at the Vegas Temple. After we had already planned our trip to Vegas Jennifer found out that a friend she introduced to the church just happened to be receiving her endowments the very same weekend we were going to be there. It was just too perfect.
And my favorite part of the weekend....we were amazed by Phantom of the Opera! We got our tickets online before our trip and we bought a couple seats up in the back balcony. They were not bad seats, they were in the back but they were a few rows from the front of the balcony and near the isle so we were almost center. Well when we were seated the usher sat us THREE ROWS FROM THE STAGE! I guess ticket master online had messed up somehow but we were not complaining! They were perfect seats! The show was amazing and the theater blew me away. The theater for Phantom is made JUST for Phantom so each new set transformed so well into a whole new scene you wouldn't believe you were looking at the same stage. I was really impressed and thourally entertained.
Excited before the show.
Worth every cent.
Funny story; We were posing for this picture when a couple guys came stumbling into us. They were so drunk they didn't even realize we were there until they were basically on top of us. While passing, one of them turns, looks at me, and yells "BOOBIES!" Hahaha oh my! Out of all the women in their sexy cocktail dresses in Vegas, this guy decides to yell that out at a fully clothed pregnant woman. What boobies? They are hidden behind my belly. What an idiot. lol.
Also while fighting our way out of the parking garage, this girl crosses the street in front of the car wearing this dress so tight and so small she was lucky she could move at all. Not only was she wearing this ridiculous dress three sizes too small she was also trying to walk in stilettos. While watching her I commented to Jennifer, "If this girl tries to do anything more but walk tonight she will be popping out all over the place." And no sooner then I finished my sentence "WHAM!" Down this girl went, right in front of our car and everyone else! This was no little stumble, it was a full on fall. It was all my fault! I just know I jinxed her! Impressively enough, she did not spill her drink.
We had a lazy Sunday morning, went to church and after wards we hiked around Red Rock Canyon. 31 weeks along? Wont stop me!
It was a perfect get-a-way trip before the baby comes! Thanks Jennifer I had a blast! =)
The End.
