I had a wonderful Mother’s Day weekend. It started when my mom and nephew, Ashton, got here on Saturday. This was Ashton’s first plane ride and he loved it. My mom said he talked the WHOLE time, which is not a surprise because he is Kiley’s son!!! We went straight from the airport to The Shark Reef (Mandalay Bay). That was so much fun and I would recommend it to everyone. We then went to eat some lunch at The Rainforest Café (MGM)! Ashton loved looking at all the animals, the water and the rainstorm show with thunder and lightning!! We then checked out the Lion Habitat (MGM) and found out how LAZY lions are!! Next up, the M&M store!! Then we made the long walk to the Bird Habitat (Flamingo). We saw so many neat birds and of course flamingos. The grounds are so pretty there and the weather was very nice. We then walked across the street to watch the water show at The Bellagio and then back to the car. We were pooped so we got some smoothies and headed home so the kids could play! It was so much fun to watch Hudsen and Ashton just play, they love each other so much. The next day was Mother’s Day and we just shopped and bought the boys some clothes, toys and we had to get a few things for baby Stella too!!! It was so much fun to spend time with my mom and just play!! We then went to eat at On The Border and had some good Mexican food!! Then we went home to let the kids play some more. Monday is when mom and Ashton went back home :( We had lunch with Tim at Capriatti’s and then took them to the airport. We were sad to see them leave but so glad they came to visit!! We had so much fun and can’t wait for them to come back! I can’t believe that the next time I see them will be when my little niece is born in just a few months!!!
Thanks Nanny (mom) and Ashton for visiting. We miss you and can’t wait to see you again.
