viva las vegas

Last week we spent in Las Vegas--we weren't sure how wise it was to take a 1 year old to the notorious city--we ended up having a great time though. Turns out it was totally navigable with a wee one. Also, Nanny and Papa were able to drive down for a couple visits (they even stayed in our same hotel Monday night) allowing us a great opportunity to squeeze in some family visit time.

North loved this restaurant in Caesar's Palace (Beijing Noodle Company 9)--they had massive aquariums that partitioned the entire space--he was in awe.

Visiting with Nanny & Papa at FAO Schwartz in the Forum Shops.

Aquarium show at Caesar's Palace and the giant aquarium at The Mirage.

Getting ready for dinner.

Breakfast at our hotel Tuesday morning.

North and Nanny ate all of Papa's toast.

North loved hanging out at our window--he liked looking down at the lights and excitement emanating from the Flamingo & Caesar's Palace which could be seen from our room.

The "volcano" at the Mirage.

Too much partying.

Visiting the flamingo habitat at The Flamingo.


M&Ms world. We got a fun mix--North got to try M&Ms for the first time.

Paris...New York...
The Brooklyn Bridge and Eiffel Tower in the background...only in Las Vegas.

Visiting the lions at MGM grand--yes, that's a lion sleeping on the glass above North & Alan's head.
A lion sizing North up as a potential snack.

We got to eat at Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill. DELICIOUS!

Meeting up with Nanny & Papa before we left at Payard.

North loved the fountain show at Bellagio--he danced to the music and demanded more when it concluded.
