This weekend Darin, Kai and I drove down to Vegas to meet up with our friends Ashleigh and Joe...Kai sure did sleep all 9 hours (yep...it took 9 hours from Salt Lake to Vegas because of the frequent feeding stops we had for Kai). This picture is of Kai and Darin taking a little driving break outside a grocery store in St. George.
WELCOME TO LAS VEGAS!!! How would we ever explain ourselves to Kai ten years from now if we didn't take him for a picture in front of the Las Vegas sign on his first trip to Vegas?!?
Darin and I recently discovered a dining GEM called the "Grand Lux Cafe" while we were visiting Florida with my family in December...lucky for Kai their was one of these fabulous restaraunts in the Venetian hotel.
And how could anyone enjoy an evening on the Strip without stopping to view the water show in front of the Bellagio??? I know Kai sure loved it...he tipped me off with all his screaming. We had to leave the show because people were staring at me with the "Lady, your kid is ruining this for the rest of us look".
My favorite part about Vegas is how cheap the entertainment is...checking out all the fabulous hotels, window shopping, people watching and SNEAKING into the Tropicana pool for a little swim!
We had to stop by the NEW YORK NEW YORK...Kai is visiting Manhattan next week for his first trip to New York, so we wanted him to have something to compare it to.
We stopped bythe Coca Cola store after the pool for some diet coke. Joe had a special treat...they served him 16 different soda's from all over the world for a little international experience right there on the Strip. So much fun!
I know...Ashleigh looks so happy, you would think she had won something...no such luck!
And last but not least, I asked Kai to tell me his true feelings about his first trip to Vegas, needless to say...I don't think he was very impressed. :)

Yeah! First to comment on the Vegas trip. That was a great weekend. Thanks for posting pics.
Your posts are always so flippin' hilarious, thanks they entertain me a great deal! Sounds like a super fun trip, and the last pic of Kai is priceless.
Kai is adorable as always! Looks like you guys had tons of fun in Vegas but not as much fun as you're going to have in CT in a week and 1 day!
I didn't know you were going to vegas. I'm glad you had a fun family trip. Natalie and Kai will have to compare notes on what they liked/didn't like in Vegas.
Talk when you get back from the next trip.
THE Kai is so cute! How is he holding up out east without me? I doubt very well!
Don't ya just love Vegas? Just wait til he's a little older and he'll be more entertained by all the lights... and Mindy, you are looking so great! Motherhood agrees with you!
Looks like a fun trip! You look so great Mindy!
