Las Vegas Baby

April 10-14, I took Ronan to Las Vegas to meet up with my mom Connie. This boy has already been to Portland, Spokane, Dallas, Shreveport, San Diego and Santa Barbara so why not Vegas? Connie found a great deal from Dallas to Las Vegas so we couldn't pass up the opportunity to visit with Ronan's C.C.. The trip from Port Hueneme to Vegas is approximately 5 hours without a baby. Figuring in the few necessary stops, it took Ronan and me about 6.5 hours to get there on a Sunday with no traffic. The drive wasn't bad at all. C.C. had a delayed flight so Ronan and I hung out at Harrah's Casino until C.C. could get there. The weather was nice. Cool in the shade, warm in the sun. Ronan LOVED people watching and the people LOVED looking at Ronan. He got a ton of compliments on his cuteness. I have to admit, the majority of Vegas tourists thought Ronan was a girl. The first few times my mom or I would correct the gender error, but by the third day we just let it go, smiling as I thanked them all the while thinking I would never dress a little girl in a blue shirt and blue jeans. With all the cute girl stuff out there, my girl would be dressed all girly girl. But I digress. Ronan, C.C. and I had a great time checking out all the casinos. They are all very lavish, especially the Mandalay Bay and the Bellagio. That's all for now.

What a good time!! I'm sure you're leaving out some details because as we all know, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. :-) Thanks for giving us the update!

Damn, but he's a cute little guy. We won't be able to say, "It's so hard being little." for much longer. :-)
