8/1 - Leaving Vegas tomorrow :(

We've had a fun past 1.5 days. Brad came home early on Friday and we went to the Outlet Mall so we could go to Carter's (a children's clothing place). We didn't find much but Aiden enjoys playing with the lego's there (he's sitting on the lego table). Brad and him play legos while I shop around ... it works out quite nicely. While we in the outlet mall, we passed by a couple of little rides. We decided to use 50 cents and try out a truck. It was Aiden's first such ride. I'm not sure if he liked it or not. He was surprised it was moving. The picture below was taken before I put the money in!!
Last night Brad's boss came over at 6:30 and watched Aiden for us so we could go see the Cirque de Soleil show Ka. It was awesome. It was so great to be able to go to a show and we really appreciate him coming over and watching Aiden. The show was amazing. Today we had Brad all to ourselves!!! We went to the Bellagio this morning and met one of his friends and had breakfast. It was our 2nd breakfast of the day (since Aiden wakes up so early) but it was fun to go early and walk around the Bellagio lobby. It was beautiful and Aiden had fun looking at the flowers, plants, water spraying, and birds (I'll post more pictures later). The picture below is while we were waiting for his high chair. He's holding the menu and has chosen what he wants!
We've also started to learn family pictures with all of us looking are a thing of the past. We had three different people take pictures and none of them are very good. Aiden isn't amused by other people as easily any more and doesn't want to look at the camera. That said, this was the best picture with our ADHD child not looking at the camera!
We ended up not going to the Children's Museum like we planned. We went to Caesear's Palace and walked around this afternoon. That place is amazing. I remembered it slightly from when Brad and I were here about 5 years ago. This final picture is Aiden playing with the trains in the FAO Schwartz toy store. This last video is Aiden playing with the remotes and TV buttons. He loves electronics!! We've had a great day and Aiden is in bed and Brad is making a dessert run to McDonalds. I tried to get a later flight out tomorrow but everything is booked. That said, my flight leaves at 12:40pm. I'll be sad to leave Brad and slightly nervous for such a long trip on the airplane where I know Aiden will be awake the majority of the time, if not the whole time.
