Spending time as a family over the holidays, sometimes takes a little work, but it's just one of those things we'll do when necessary. This time, we took Nani with us to spend Thanksgiving and to spend some time with the girls. And help of course, she was a HUGE help! Note: Do not travel to Vegas with two littles without backup!
This was the girls' second flight in 2 months, so I feel like we were getting the hang of it. iPad ready and a bag full of games to keep Jordan entertained on the flight out
My little buddy
We made it! Nothing like a car that has rotating colored lights it to keep a toddler entertained. "Blue, green, yellow, purple" Hey - when in Vegas, right?!
Smiles with Nani!
We bundled the girls up and made one trek out to the Strip. I think Taylor was a bit overwhelmed...by her jacket and all the activity of Las Vegas!
Jordan, however loved pointing out everything she could find. Vegas is crazy enough for adults, imagine what a toddler sees!
We did make it to the Bellagio to watch the "Water Dancing". Her eyes were so big watching the fountains!
Family pictures on the Las Vegas Strip!
As if Jordan didn't have enough activity for the night, we went out to dinner with the team. I love this picture of Jordan sitting next to her daddy on the team bus. Sometimes we think she's so big, but she's just a little girl traveling around with her daddy in this crazy basketball world, sitting front and center. Your daddy may not have a "normal" job, little girl, but I have a feeling it will take you on adventures we never expected!
The next morning we had a nice little Thanksgiving breakfast in the hotel casino buffet. Totally normal!
Happy First Thanksgiving sweet Taylor girl!
Got to steal a few minutes with daddy to watch the Thanksgiving Day Parade with his girls.
On our way to Thanksgiving lunch...
...to the Hard Rock Cafe! :)
Jordan sharing turkey and dressing with daddy for lunch and shopping in the gift shop
And Taylor spending some good quality time with Nani during lunch! This is how infants do Thanksgiving in Vegas.
Not sure this girl ever really got on Vegas time, so had a little bit of a rough trip. Love watching her smile at herself though!
Finally, it was time for daddy's basketball game!
I love how sweet Jayden is with these girls. She loves playing with them during the games!
Aaaaannnnd then Taylor had enough...again. So another nap on Nani during the basketball game. This really is the best way to watch a game, you actually can watch it instead of having to watch and entertain them!
Got her backpack on, ready to go home. This girl will fight going to sleep every night, but especially when she knows there's so much going on. She finally had enough and fell asleep sitting up on the way home before falling into her daddy's lap. She partied pretty hard in Vegas.
Vegas Memories:
- Jordan dancing in the casino
- Running through the casino tables chasing Jordan as they kept asking us to keep her out of the casino areas
- Jordan taking off her play bracelets at the security line and grabbing her own bucket for her bracelets. She's getting the hang of this traveling stuff.
- Taylor sleeping through her first Thanksgiving
- Jordan making Taylor giggle by playing peek-a-boo walking in and out of the door at the hotel
- Navigating two strollers through the crazy that is the Las Vegas Strip
- Jordan just being a crazy person when she got so tired she couldn't think straight. Was running around and telling the longest stories that no one could follow.
