Will I Be Done Laundry Soon?? (and some Vegas pics...)

Here are some pics to wet your whistle. I will post some more later in the future.

I am still not caught up on laundry yet (so, yes, Tina, I am still doing laundry...) and I have been neglecting my kids today. I should go wake them up and get them going on afternoon activities. I am fighting a cold, too, which doesn't help with the whole 'get back into the groove' thing.

I will try and blog more about our trip tomorrow, but for now, you may enjoy a few pictures. I will really try to blog some tomorrow!!

This is a picture of the Stratosphere tower. We stayed at the hotel there and it is where we ate our romantic dinner.

At Madame Toussaud's Wax Museum - Jonathan taking on Shaq.

Again at M.T's - Sorry Faith Hill...

(Tim McGraw and Me!!)

Our romantic dinner atop the Stratosphere. Our chocolate replica for our dessert! It was heavenly!!

Happy Birtyday, Aidan!

Taken when Emma was just born. Aidan was 2 1/2!

Taken a couple of weeks ago. I love that Aidan smile!!

My baby boy is 5 today. What an amazing thing. I can't believe how time has flown by, especially since Emma has entered the scene. Jonathan reminded me that he is a quarter of the way to 20! *Jaw falls open* That is not too far away.

Anyway, we are not doing too much today for his birthday. We are going to take him to Chuck E. Cheese on Sunday for his birthday celebration. He has never been so we thought his 5th birthday was a grand time to do it. We'll see how he likes it.

Have a wonderful day, ladies. I have hours and hours of laundry and unpacking ahead of me!! Very exciting....

Back from Vegas...

I will write and post some stories later. We had a wonderful trip (no gambling...not even one slot machine!). It was lovely!! No kids. We could do what we wanted when we wanted.... It was wonderful!!

Now it is snowing outside.... BLAH!!!

Kidlet Update and Songs

Well, I am not going to be posting here much before our trip. I thought I would just check in and tell you how it is going.

So far, I have packed a little bit, not too much yet. It doesn't take me long to pack. I will wash a few things and then pack them and we'll be ready to go on Monday morning.

We have to be at the airport at 4:00am so we can check-in for our flight out at 7:00. We are flying stand-by, which is why we need to get there so early. Hopefully it will all go alright and we will be in Vegas by the afternoon.

KIDLET UPDATE:
A few cute notes here about the kids:

• Emma has started to run up to you and throw her arms around you. Then she says, big hug! It is too cute!!


• Aidan and Emma have been playing together for an hour or so at a time. They call Aidan's room the "Kid Club", which means "No Grown-ups Allowed!" It is too cute, but Mommy has no idea what to do with herself!


• Today, Aidan and Emma were walking around the house holding hands. It was priceless.
  

Anyway, I thought I would let you know some interesting tidbits.

I have been listening and adding songs to my iPod for the trip. I thought I would share a few songs with you here. The first one is on Jenny's blog. I love this song and this version is great.


I really love the website: http://www.tunefind.com/. It has a listing of all of the popular shows and movies on it. Each is broken down by seasons and then episodes, featuring the songs that are on each episode. With that in mind, I have been finding a few newer songs that I love. Here's one from "P.S. I Love You". I love Ryan Star from when he was on Rockstar Supernova. Anyway, I love this song, too!!


Since we're on Reality TV acts, here's the new David Cook that I LOVE!!

Okay, one more. This is Beyonce, who I don't normally listen to, but this one is good. I really like the video as well. (Sorry about the sound, it is the best that I could find with the video!!)

I hope you enjoyed. I have been listening to these songs a lot lately.
