Family and Life in Vegas {Week in Rewind} (Lots of Pictures)

April 25, 2011 By Emily 10 Comments

 

What a fun week this past week was!

Monday: Had a great play-date at the park.  My little man is getting so active, it is hard to keep up with his curiosity!

Tuesday: Chilled at home with my Dude.  Google Chatted with my Hubs!

Wednesday: Girls Night out at Blue Martini Las Vegas. (Highly recommend a drop in if you are in the area!)
Had a Blast hanging out with some rockin Blogger friends. I also won a pair of Gucci Shoes at the event. (More on this later!!)

Thursday: Ditched Playgroup (sorry mamas) to relax at home.  (Hey – this Mama isn’t used to hanging out til the wee hours in the AM!)  Did lots of Coloring with the Little Man.

Friday: Met up with Lolo and Baybah for a fun morning play-date at the Springs Preserve.  Given it was Earth Day and spring break, it was pretty busy.  But our boys managed to have a bit of fun at the playground there.  We would have stayed longer, but 82 degrees, sunny, and crowds makes for some crabby babes!

After a nice nap (for Squish and Me) we attempted to go to see the Easter Bunny.  It was a fail.  The line was way too long for a 22 month old.  Patience may be a virtue, but you have to understand virtue to have patience.  Instead, I let the Squishy Boy run around the indoor playground.  He tries to play with the big boys.  But he forgets he isn’t a big boy yet.  I was really frustrated that this one boy pushed him twice.  He shook it off like it was fun.

Then Mommy and Auntie peaked into Forever 21 and bought a few pieces of super cute jewelry.  (Don’t worry hubs, my earrings were $1.50 and my necklace was $3.80)

Saturday: Took Squishy to get his first big boy haircut.  Sure, I have cut his hair before, but it ended in tears for both of us.  So I finally took him in to get it done.

Mommy got in on the action too.  But after coming home looking like Kate (From Jon & Kate) I took the scissors into my own hands.  I now has a pixie perfect for summer.

Later that evening, I headed out to meet some girls at a local country bar.  No drinks for this lady, my allergies were giving me a run for my money.  It was still fun to get out and see friends.  (And show off my Forever 21 Jewelry!)

Sunday: Squishy and I headed to church.  We loved the church puppet show the youth in the church put on.  We came home, and I cooked a Southwestern Potato Egg Frittata.  After Squish took a nap, the Easter Bunny made an appearance at our home.  We hunted eggs in the backyard, and headed back inside to enjoy the goodies in a some baskets.

    Sounds like an awesome week! I love both of your haircuts! It looks like your squish really enjoyed the Easter egg hunt. I spent my week hanging out with my little girl. This weekend we (my husband and I) had her first “professional” pictures done and on Sunday we celebrated her first Easter. =)
