Girls trip to wedding in Vegas

Look at this big boy sitting up during his bath!
This is the second year this group of girls decided to make a trip to Vegas. My friend's family has a house out there and it's perfect for our big group who always seems to have a least 2 pregnant girls who can drive everyone around! Ironically enough, Patrick's best friend was getting married the same weekend as the girls trip, so Patrick and I had some time to spend in Vegas together. These are the only picture's I have of the first night. We had dinner at Vanderpump Garden and walked around the strip. The food wasn't the best at Vanderpump-but the atmosphere and drinks did not disappoint or leave out any detail.

The second day, Patrick arrived and so did some of his buddies. The girls and I went to spend time by the pool at Mandalay Bay. It was a little cooler that day, we originally had bought a cabana, but were able to cancel since it was completely dead. Later on that night, I met with Patrick's group and had dinner at a steak house in New York New York-the food was better here, but the decor and drinks did not compare to Vanderpump. Here's the groom rocking his leopard print.

Bride/Groom!




In Mandalay Bay, they had a restaurant or bar called "SBAR." Sarah and I are both nurses and this acronym is engraved in our brains because it's what they teach you when you are calling a doctor for a brief report. Situation, background, assessment, recommendation.

I guess there are a few more pictures from the first night!

After dinner in New York New York, Patrick and I just walked around to enjoy the scenery.

The next morning (Friday), the girls and I went to a drag brunch at Senor Frogs. It was a beautiful day and we had seats outside. It was hard to see the show, but they didn't really put on a show, they would dance for 2 min and then go around collecting money for like 10 min. We had a great time just hanging out with one another and enjoying the sun and cocktails.

After the brunch, it was time for the wedding! Here's the bride, Kristina, and JP's sister, Erin, and cousin, Genevieve.



I did the braid for her hair and it turned out so good!
Getting ready to go to the little white chapel!

You can't get married in Vegas and not have Elvis marry you!





JP and Krisitna got a party bus to pick us up from the chapel. We ended up booking it for an additional hour. We just drove up the strip and then came back the opposite direction and it took us 2 hours! Lots of construction going on there.



The next morning, we booked a Cabana by the pool. Much needed relaxation.
We stayed at the Mirage which is where the beatles show is-they were on vacation, so no shows during the time we were there.


Congratulations Kristina and JP!

  Someone got into the red paint post bath.. Fun trip to the library This wall had them entertained for a while Conrads a bit more of a nurturer than his brother Get in m belly! Farm fresh eggs from Taylor! Branko has been a huge super hero lover these days. He has 6 stretchy small super heros that I actually got for Conrad for valentines day. The material its made out of gets full of lint and hair, so Branko gives them "baths". Playing with the outdoor lights. There was a crazy storm one night and Branko set up Hulk/Ironman in the window to watch the storm with him. I thought I had a picture of it, I guess not! Pics from school :) Our photo frame is always a big hit with the boys Panera (or First Watch) with Grandma Conrad is so proud of himself getting the coins in the piggy bank A normal night in super hero capes and Conrad climbing on the end table/couch My oldest is getting too big to carry :( Enjoying a rare solo bath Culvers, yummmm Enjoying the spring air!

Disney World and baby #3!!

Both boys fell asleep as soon as we landed.... in Orlando. We waited for everyone to get off the plane before waking up these sleeping beauties. We started the trip out rough, I was super sick with no energy the day before we left and Patrick had the same symptoms the day we left. I think we may have had Covid after hearing what other people's symptoms were after we got back. I didn't want to bring their car seats, so we booked a bus to take us from the airport to our hotel. NEVER AGAIN! (at least while the boys are this young). We waited in the airport for the bus for an hour and a half. Recipe for disaster after waking up early, driving to Midway airport, being on a plane, waiting in line for the bus, and then sit on the bus to get to the resort. It was a lot and not a great way to start the trip. We'll get a car rental next time. Yes, we thought about an uber, but they only have options for 1 carseat. We stayed at the Contemporary Resort to be on the monorail and close t...

 On Wednesdays, Branko has daycare, leaving me with the two younger boys. To be honest, having all three of them is easier than juggling the younger two by myself. Conrad is at a tough age right now where he wants all of my attention and gets aggressive/jealous when I need to feed or hold Michael. On this particular day, we needed to get out of the house, so Conrad led us through Target. He ran away twice, which was fun chasing him with the doona stroller. Thankfully, it wasn't busy! I hate the running away phase! We also went to my favorite coffee shop. Meanwhile, Branko learned about trains at school and was excited to go to his mama's house as his destination. Michael has started to be more alert these days. I just LOVE his eyes Superhero brothers! Our neighbors who live behind us babysit for us sometimes and this particular day Carsen was on spring break and lent a hand on a Friday where it was me and all three while Patrick was working. She played with the older boys and h...
