We went to Las Vegas for few days with my inlaws. We brought Nathan with us this time. I thought it would be a bad idea to take him to Vegas, but it turned out to be fine minus his ‘terrible 2’ tantrum 🙂
It was good to be out of town for a while after finding out about my coworker’s/friend’s tragic death, but at same time she was always on my mind especially just finding about the horrible news just few days ago.

In Vegas, we stayed at Vdara since it has a kitchenette with microwave. I brought some baby food with me for Nathan’s breakfast and lunch. Good thing I brought some Gerber food for Nathan because we get out of the hotel past lunch time. I always try to make sure Nathan has his lunch at same time so he doesn’t get cranky when we are out.
This time we brought the small stroller with us to make things more easier bringing it to the airport and carrying it along with our luggages… well actually we only had one medium size luggage. I was going to bring two luggages to fit everything but I thought it would be easier to handle one luggage, a stroller, carry-on bags and Nathan at same time.

Our first dinner was at Margaritaville where Nelson loves their ‘Perfect Margarita’. Nathan had a monkey balloon made for him.
Nathan loved throwing coins into the fountain
Can’t believe someone threw a dollar bill into the fountain
Of course I had to have a frozen hot chocolate at Serendipity
At the hotel, we went for a swim. Nelson bought a small GoPro camera that is outdoor and can be used underwater. Since the camera is inside a case, the sound isn’t as great. I like this GoPro camera so much, I can’t wait to use it again!
It was very sunny and humid in Vegas. Here is Nathan in his stroller. I put my sweater in front of him to protect him from the sun.

Since we booked our stay at Vdara, we got tickets for Elvis Cirque Du Soliel
