Two Wheeling fun....

He has been doing this for a while now, but he was giggling when he did it (first try mind you) Shouting, "I am doing it...I am doing it"



This is the best thing ever invented for basically teaching your kids how to to ride without training wheels. The scooter bike with no pedals, so all they concentrate on is balancing. It's genius if you think about. I mean they know how to pedal...it's the balance they need to get down. Once they can balance and ride this well, transitioning to a two wheeler is piece of cake!

LIlly is now practicing hard on the scooter bike. We all know how competitive she is. I wonder where she gets that? hmmm.

Well played Lilly

So after a long day of excessive whining, I say to Lilly,

"Oh my goodness Lilly, stop whining."

Lilly proceeded to say,

"Mommy, I am not whining. I am just breathing"

Well, I can't ask my daughter to stop breathing. So point goes to Lilly.

Thunder T-ball

Our first experience with team sports has started.





Is this age appropriate?

At four and half, should a peanut and butter jelly sandwich leave this much a mess?

Vegas...rated PG

So I should just say that when I say Vegas done PG...I mean it. Anyone that knows me, knows that a Vegas trip that I am involved in, will not have some CRAZY stories of things we don't remember, missing clothing, or a hospital wrist band (to steal a scene from hangover)

But, the reason for this PG rating is due to the pic below. We did do some gambling (during the day mind you) and there was some dancing by a very, half dressed smiley girl who was throwing beads at us.


Birthday dinner at the ever beautiful Venetian.


Le Reve...french for The Dream, and a very unique show at the Wynn. I could see shows every night. If someone wants to sponsor me in that venture, send me an email.


These were a huge part of our trip. Mostly for Jen and myself. So we did present Summer with the smartest packer award and she (and her feet) seemed to be blister and rubbing free in all her shoes.


Yes, these are my feet....and yes, we took a taxi home that night.

Happy trio. There always needs to be a self taken-squeeze in-double chin exposed picture taken on every trip.



Can someone hook me up for a stay at the Wynn? I think it might have been my favorite on the strip.


Closest I'll get to Italy. So soak it in Lindsey!


We honestly took turns sleeping on this self engineered chair bed. We wanted an upgrade rooms, but there was no rooms available on St. Patty's day/March madness in March. So we all took one for the team, and I now need chiropractic appointments, but whatever.


We had a such a great time...full of laughter, shopping, delicious food, and memories.

"Meet me at the Palms"..right girls?

The best present the Easter bunny could bring for these two is each other......
