Sunday Funday

What a fun day!

We started off with Church and then packed up our pumpkins and headed to the park. We brought Gabby's Jeep so she could play with it with her cousin. Hubby and I ended up doing the pumpkins while Gabby played. It was hubby's first time carving pumpkins! Crazy right? I thought so.

It was such a nice afternoon and Gabby had a lot of fun.

Now we are relaxing watching the Packers game. Gabby is already asleep because, once again, she didn't nap today! 

No nap & late bed time sort of day

I tried to get her to nap, honest I did. 

We woke up late this morning. I really need to set the alarm on my phone to ring louder. She usually goes down for a nap at 1pm. Not today. She didn't fall asleep until we went on a little drive to find a park.

 I drove us back home because that park was closed...didn't get there until after 5pm. At home we played a bit and it was time for her to go to sleep. She's usually sleeping by 830pm. Not tonight. She didn't want to go to sleep tonight. Finally she fell asleep by 930pm.

 I then parked myself on the couch and watched The Purge: Anarchy. It was decent but not as good as the first one. I'm exhausted and still not feeling the greatest. I was going to film tonight but today didn't go as planned. Hope to get some filming done this weekend. 

Tomorrow we are going to the pumpkin patch! Will definitely vlog it. :) 

So upset that it was time for bed!!

This was our Tuesday

This morning we did a few learning activities. I'm starting (or, have started) preschool at home. Just something fun for both of us to do and I love watching how her little mind works! We are redoing letter A, since our vacation kind of put us on hold. 

I'm working on figuring out how she likes to learn best. I'm doing this (preschool at home) very laid back, flexible, and fun!

Before her gymnastics class, she had some fun with daddy. & I got to run! It has honestly been awhile. I haven't been feeling the greatest (think I caught a bug during vacation) so I thought a run would help. It did! 

Afterwards, she got to go to her tumbling class. Why so serious, Gabe?!

Back to the hole!

We got home on Friday night.

We had so much fun on our vacation but missed the hubby. We didn't get to see him until Saturday.

More pictures from the vacay:

 First stop in Vegas was to a Filipino restaurant! So. So. So. GOOD.

 I finally got to try my hubby's favorite drink/food: Halo Halo! It was super delicious. It's ice cream, shaved ice, beans, and some other things I'm not sure of.

 Went and checked into our hotel, the Luxor, rested and went out on the town.

 The next day we went on to Arizona and visited my family. Gabby and V finally see each other again! They were the best of friends and remembered right where they left off. They tried on shoes and had tickle fights. It was adorable!

 My grandparents and MIL. Gabby and I of course!

 The next day, we headed to the Grand Canyon West and got to ride a helicopter over the Grand Canyon! It was amazing. Our flight was about 15min long. It was so much fun. Once in a lifetime. Gabby did great with it. At first, she was a little scared, but soon got the hang of it. Afterwards she kept saying "Up! Down!" and moving her hands in the air up and down.

  We also did the Sky Walk!

Sad story about the blanket you see this pretty little child sleeping on so peacefully.  Guess who left it at the Luxor? This mommy did. :( She has had it since she was a newborn. Loved it. Smelled it constantly. Slept with it every nap and each night. No other blanket compares. We left early Tuesday morning and I'm guessing it was still tangled up in the sheets in the bed. I didn't realize I left it until we were long gone. I contacted the Luxor and filled out the Lost and Found form. They emailed me back almost immediately saying they have not found the blanket. I feel like the worst mom ever.

1st day in the books

We made it to Vegas! And have left already. Now visiting with my family until Thursday morning. Thursday morning we are planning on visiting the Sky Walk, and heading back to Vegas for the night. Our flight leves Friday afternoon. 

I did a horrible thing. I left Gabby's favorite blanket (she's had it since she was born) in the Luxor hotel room. I guess I didn't see it as we were packing in the morning. She sleeps with it every night, I think it was mixed up in the blankets on the bed. I feel terrible about it. Breaks my heart. I called the hotel twice and each time I get sent to the lost and found line but no one answers. They have a recording saying I need to fill out the form online and hopefully they have it and should be able to send it to is. Fingers crossed. 

A few pictures

When we first arrived :)

Halo Halo! Hubby's fave food. I finally got to try it! So delicious! 

Stayed at the Luxor Hotel!

View from our room :)

My body is still on our time zone. I'm exhausted! 

Viva Las Vegas

If you're reading this, I'm probably either on a layover in Tennessee or already in Vegas! Gabby, myself, and my In-Laws (hubby has to stay to work :( ) are heading out west for a little vacation. We will be spending Monday in Vegas and heading to Arizona on Tuesday morning. Our flight leaves super early on Monday, around 5am. So I won't be getting much sleep come Sunday night..we have to leave the house at 2am to get to the airport on time, waaahh. First Starbucks I can get my hands on, will be mine!

I'm excited to see my grandparents again. We are hoping to make it to the Grand Canyon as well. They have the Sky Walk that my in-laws would like to check out.

For now, editing, sleeping sometime soon, church on Sunday, last minute packing afterwards, and hopefully a couple hours sleep. See you in Vegas!

Adventures

We had spent the previous day indoors waiting and waiting for a MAC collection to launch. This is all my fault. My poor little lady. She was such a trooper and we did keep busy. The following day, I thought it would be good to get out and get some fresh air. We ended up here:

 Such a nice view. The place we went to go down to see the water, had A LOT of spider webs. I don't think anyone has been down this way in a long time.

 She wanted to hold my hand, aw.

 Mean muggin' G!
Unfortunately, she was not feeling the greatest. I didn't find that out until after her nap...which happened once we got home.

 Fun fact: M and I took maternity photos here when I was pregnant with G. :)

 Checking out what was falling from the tree. Acorns.

 I tried zooming in on this picture, well on her face, because she was mean muggin' again!

 She thought it was funny. :)

Until next time!
