Matt had a meeting for work in Las Vegas, so Braden and I decided to tag along. Braden is always up for an adventure and we always enjoy taking him to new places.
"Where'd all the money go??" This was the first thing out of Braden's mouth as we entered the casino to check into our hotel. He repeated that line about 100 times throughout our weekend in Vegas. I'm pretty sure every gambler there had the same question in mind!
We arrived in Vegas a bit late, so we figured Braden would pass out in the car before arriving to the hotel. He still sleeps in a crib at home, so he was ecstatic to have a queen bed all to himself! Multiple pillows just added to the fun. Needless to say, this restful pose didn't last long....
Apparently Braden heard that Vegas is the city that never sleeps, and he decided he was going to live up to that! Our perfect sleeper went to bed each night after 11pm, but still woke up early! He also boycotted his usual two hour afternoon nap each day. There was way too much excitement, so Braden didn't want to miss a thing.....
David Spade spotted Braden in a restaurant & complimented his outfit. Who knew David Spade had any fashion sense?! So, they did what any two comics would do...chatted a bit and then parted by giving each other "knuckles!"
Braden was fascinated with the lion habitat in our hotel. The two lions housed there are amazing! Braden has mastered a pretty impressive "ROOOOAAARRRRR!!!"
Not typically a good eater, Braden did sample the cuisine at a buffet. He actually indulged the way we all probably should. He took about one bite of everything!
Braden heard Matt and I rented a Harley when we visited Vegas a few weeks ago, so he insisted that Daddy do the same for him.....fortunately Braden was content with the video game version. Looks like Matt is having as much fun as Braden!
The weekend wouldn't be complete without some playtime with Braden's new buddies. Of course capturing a good picture of two 2-year-olds was impossible. Cody is just a few months older than Braden and all they cared about was playing, playing, and more playing! Cody's dad and Matt became friends when they weren't much older than the two of our boys!
Looks like our friends' son, Lance, and Braden just hung out peacefully and quietly.....
for about two seconds!! It was pretty late and the boys had a blast! Someone must have spiked Braden's milk with Red Bull because he was bonkers!
Surprisingly, we were able to capture a good picture of Kenneth, Lance, and Braden. I think they figured if they sat still for a picture, we would be more likely to let them climb and run around all over the place! They were having too much fun to put a stop to it!
