2 weeks

Jesse had the last two weeks off from work and it was so wonderful having him home. We got lucky that the weather was really nice almost the whole time he had off work. We wanted to go do things with the girls that we hadn't done before. So we took them to the aquarium and Pike Place Market. Then we were lucky enough that we got to go to Las Vegas and my mom stayed at our house and watched the girls. It was a wonderful two weeks and I am sad that he had to go back to work on Sunday. The girls and I really enjoyed having him around all the time.
Our friends the Springs invited us to go to the Aquarium with them and we couldn't pass it up since neither one of us had been since probably our school years. We had such a good time and Jordan loved getting to hang out with her friends Cooper & Kelsey!

My favorite part was the Octopus
How tall is Jordan?

Jordan finally decided that she would touch something and it was a starfish in a bowl :)
Me & my big girl
Taylor was super good the whole time. She got to be held by me, Jesse, Aaron & Amy! She was spoiled. I don't know why I even brought her stroller in.
My family at Pike Place Market
We had a great time at Pike Place Market. Jordan wasn't too sure about all the people and all the different smells. She has a very sensitive nose and had to plug it a couple times. We ate yummy food and I even waited in line for 15 minutes for those mini donuts, and it was worth every minute of standing in line. We had a great day and the weather was beautiful.
I think it is funny that in both these pictures my girls have their mouth wide open!

Such a ham
Jesse & I in our hotel room.
I didn't take that many pictures when we were in Vegas. It is hard when it is just you two to find someone to take your picture. And we have so many of Vegas from past visits. So here are a few of our room that we stayed in at the Wynn. I think it is now Jesse's favorite so that is probably were we will be staying the next time we go. I thought the room was great and it had a great view. We were only on the 35th floor but still had a great view of the strip.
We had so much fun and Jesse won a ton of money the first day and then slower lost it the next day, thankfully he didn't loose it all and we still came home with money. I won $54 at penny slots and I was excited about that. We went to see O at the Bellagio and it was AMAZING!! We were in the second row and could see everything. I definitely want to go back and see it again. I loved that Jesse and I got to spend 3 whole days together without kids, it was so nice getting to reconnect. We were ready to get home to our girls and so thankful that my mom stayed at our house to watch them. Hopefully we will get to go back to Vegas again sometime this year.

Me in the Wynn lobby, it is a beautiful hotel!
