Vegas Vacation part 2

Sam and I decided that we were gonna go visit Clint! So we set off early early one morning and drove straight through. We stopped once in Beaver to get gas and that was it. Sam slept the entire way!! Lucky me. I was nervous to drive that far alone but I did it! I was jammin out to "my" music the whole way!

So we are living in a hotel for 2 weeks! I am getting use to room service that is for sure!! Clint works 4 days a week, so it hasnt been that bad. Sam and I hang out at the pool and do a little shopping. We watch movies and I have started a new addiction! I love the twilight series! I read the 1st 2 books in like 3 days. They are incredible, Clint thinks I am a nerd, but I cant wait to get home and go to the book release party at Barnes and Noble for the 4th one!


We have had many adventures here, we took Sam to FAO Schwartz (a toy store), The adventure dome @ circus circus, the shark reef, the childrens museum and the park in St. George. His favorite is the pool! We spend hours in it, he is so ready for swimming lessons. He knows to plug his nose and blow bubbles and to kick his feet when he is on his belly. He even puts his arms up like he is diving when he jumps in to us. So I cant wait to sign him up!

Our little make shift bath tub! He thinks it is great because he hates the shower!!

Clint and Sam in the adventure dome. Sam really thought that was spongebob! It was cute!



Sam and Clint watching the Bellagio water show.....



At FAO Schwartz, We thought we would never get him off that piano. It is like the one in the movie Big.....Sam even drew a crowd, he would run and slide on it. It was quite the little show!

Sam and the lego guy, right after I took this he pulled the arm off! Whoops!


Sam and I with the Komodo Dragon. He loved the Shark Reef, he waved to all the animals and said shhhhh to the dragon and crocodile because they were sleeping!
Clint of course had to be Clint....He made Sam jump so high, he came behind him while I was holding him and touched his leg. He didnt cry, I think Sam and I are just use to Clint's little quirks

Sam and Clint touching the stingray, I was to chicken. They give me the eeebie jeebies, I mean hello, they did kill the crocodile man.
They had tunnels you walk through, like the ones on Jaws, not as big though....Sam was really nervous about them and hated when the sharks swam over us. I think because you could see their teeth really good.


Sam and Clint inside the bubble maker at the childrens museum.


Childrens museums are the coolest! He ran from one thing to the next. Clint and I had lots of fun too!


Sam and water....I know the water is gross, it was brown, but he loved it! Clint liked it too! They were making dams and waterfalls.

Clint inside the hurricane tube. I couldnt do it, I was wearing a dress. I would've had a Marilyn moment!!

***1 entire bottle of hand sanitizer was used during our adventure through the museum***

Looks like sooo much fun! So are you guys moving down there...or is it still up in the air??? My vote is that you stay here...(not that my vote counts at all, but I thought you should know where I stand). Well glad to see you guys having so much fun. Lots of love! Call us when you will all be in town and we will do a big dinner. We missed you the other night.

Wow I had no idea there was all of that fun stuff for kids/families in Vegas. I really want to go there now. I have only ever seen the gross part of Vegas. Oh and don't even get me started on the twilight books! I LOVE them. I read all 3 in 3 days on our trip to Mexico, and I can't wait to read the next one this weekend. I wish I could stay up late enough to go get it at midnight on Friday, but when I am pregnant I fall asleep at 9! Well I am glad you posted somethings new, I was wondering where you had been.
