It's Vegas, babyyyyyy

So we're off and flying. To Vegas. I'm honest enough to admit that I've been feeling more than a little "off" about leaving Connor behind. Not that I would want to bring him to Vegas with us but this is definitely the furthest away from him I've been and for the longest. Fortunately, he's with my parents so I know that he's having a great time wrapping them around his tiny little fingers.

The flight went great. Away on time and a direct flight. Wahoo!

It was pretty cool when we flew over Mount St. Helens. I really wish it was possible to get better pictures from an airplane though. Still, I thought it turned out pretty good.


Finally, we were slowing and descending... with Vegas and the Strip in our sights. It's kind of cool how easy it is to spot the Strip from the air. And you can see the man made lake in front of the Bellagio in the top third of the shot.


We walked into our room at the Bellagio and this is the view that awaits us. We've seen the fountains go off every half hour since we got here. You can turn on your TV and hear the music that accompanies the show.




I swear, I could watch that fountain all day!!!

Seven Months Old!!

Wow... has it been a month? Gods, hang my head in shame and apologies to my fellow photo nuts. With all the colds and coughs and appointments around here, I'm not sure where the last month has gone!

So, I will post some shots from his seven month pictures (taken on the 15th, of course) and strive to do much much better!

I have to say, I can't get over the changes in him every month. He's so much more interactive now and trying to get this crawling thing going. He plays with toys though he still does his best to eat most of them too. And solids have been an adventure!

AND... on top of that... he said "Mama" yesterday for the very first time! Whoot!!!

So... some shots of my boy and promises that I'll do better in the picture taking and posting department!
