Vegas, Baby! Take 2.

This was SUCH a lower-key trip than last year.
 
Jason had a conference at the Mandalay Bay and we got moved to the Delano, which is a tower connected. This is the room...

This was our view at night...
 

We loved this hotel. It smelled great and it was all suites, so we had a one room, 1.5 bath room. The Mandalay is a pretty place to stay. It's all the way on the south end of the strip, so you aren't close to the Bellagio or Caesars, but I was just fine with that, to be honest.
 
There was a very nice hotel/beach area. The sodas were $5.50 each, so the hotel was incredibly expensive! But I found ways to eat cheaper and brought a few snacks in my bag, so that helped.
 


 
When Jason goes on these trips and I follow him, I have to admit, I spend a lot of time by myself. I think it would be nice to take someone with me next time! I did a lot of eating alone and taking selfies. I did a little gambling and it was nice to have some alone time, but it was a lot of waiting until he was done with his day. We were such fuddy duddies, we were in bed pretty early every night.


 
There was a Michael Jackson show in our hotel, so we heard a lot of his music in the time we were there!


 
It was a nice trip, very relaxing. But I am ready to go on an actual vacation with Jason where he doesn't have to work! Maybe we will plan a European trip next fall (ha ha, just kidding!)

Guess Who Has A New Potty???

This girl!! Jason and I took Avery to Target tonight to find a potty chair. We didn't know what kind to get. When we got there, she loved the Sesame Street one. It's the kind that sits on the toilet, not an actual chair. I've heard both reasonings on a chair and a pad for the real toilet. On one hand, the chairs are little and easier for them to sit on and they aren't scary to flush. On the other, the pad doesn't require you to have to clean out a chair and they teach kids to sit on the big potty from the get go. What it really came down to was that we just don't have a big bathroom at all, so keeping an actual chair in the bathroom would have been hard. So we got the pad. It has a little hook that you attach to the tank, so you can hang the pad on it. I love this!  I have no intention of actually potty training Avery full out, just yet. I don't think she is ready. But I have heard it's good to have one that they can practice sitting on and get u...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head.   As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee.   I can't believe I just said that.   It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...
