Random Pictures - Eight Months

I just can't get enough of this kid!! I think I've taken 1000+ pictures of him since he was born. These are some from the past week or so, mostly taken with my phone so they are a bit grainy. I just LOVE his little face:)

Vegas Trip

We spent a few days last week on a mini vacation to Las Vegas. So much fun!! Carson loved all of the lights and activity happening around him. He was a pretty good little traveler. Of course, I took a bunch of pictures!



Carson was such a good boy on the drive down. Sadly, the musical book he is holding in this picture died on the way home. Too much use on the way there, I guess!



The classic welcome sign







In our hotel room the night we arrived. We were all happy to be out of the car!





Carson loved the light shows they had on Freemont Street. We were there well past his bedtime, but he was so mesmorized by everything that he didn't even fuss.









He loves his binky!





There was a lady selling t-shirts from a cart. These were a couple of my favorites.







Looking up at the light show.




There were showgirls all around charging for pictures to be taken with them. Not sure who the guy is in the middle, but I was amazed at their costumes. It was cold out, too!!









A few of the light shows they had going the night we were there. Probably, one of my favorite parts of the trip.



I thought this was funny. Apparently, you eat free at this restaurant if your weigh over 350 lbs.




Carson loved the big bed in our hotel room. He slept so well, too.






Playing with daddy before heading off to the Strip.


I think this was at the Venetian.





Carson was Mr. Casual with one leg up in his stroller. He is so our child!










Taking his afternoon nap amidst all of the chaos on the Strip.





The ceiling at Caesar's Palace. The picture doesn't do it justice.





His favorite souvenier...fuzzy dice. His favorite part of the dice? The tag!





The aquarium at Caesar's Palace. He was fascinated with the fish (and daddy's drink)!






The lion habitat at MGM Grand. They were asleep on the glass ceiling.

MGM Grand buffet. Wally's favorite part of the trip!




Carson loved this Coca Cola bear so much! He squealed and laughed and smiled like never before. You can't tell much from the pictures, but it was so cute.










Excalibur Hotel





Carson, holding onto his tags. It's like a security thing for him when riding in the stroller.





Family shot at the Luxor. Can you see us? haha




He thought this stained glass window was cool.



On our way out of town, we stopped at a Hotel & Casino that had an aquarium. Well worth the time!! Carson LOVED it!








Listening intently to Wally telling him about the fish.






I love this picture of Carson in the middle of all the kids looking at the mermaid. He looks so grown up.


We stopped in St. George on the way home to visit with Wally's daughter and her two little girls. Carson thought it was pretty fun being pushed around in their pink doll stoller.
