Anniversary

Jason and I recently celebrated our 1rst wedding anniversary. We were able to go away for the weekend. My Mom was still in town, so convinced us to go away and have a honeymoon for a couple of days. So, we booked a trip to Vegas. We were able to stay at the new hotel, Wynn. It was a really nice hotel, odd decorations, but nice.

We really enjoyed ourselves. We played blackjack and some slot machines. Jason did really well on the slots, usually he doesn't do good on them.

I planned the trip on Thursday and we flew out Friday early afternoon, so not much time for packing. I only took comfortable and casual clothes. I figured we didn't need anything dress up this time around.

On Saturday, I got to relax in the spa. I had a facial and a massage. It was pure heaven and the relaxation I needed. After I was done I met Jason over at the Tresure Island and then we headed the Hard Rock. We had lunch there and then hung out in the casino for a while.
Then we headed back to the hotel. Jason told me to get ready for dinner, so I put on some jeans and we headed out. He surprised me and made reservations at Spago, Ceasar's Palace. It was were we had our reception one year ago. It was so nice and romantic. He is such an amazing husband. He has his geekiness, such as Star Wars, but deep down he such a sweetheart and he thinks of everything that I would love. He made the night so special. Thanks honey, I love you!

On Sunday, we hung out at the Hilton Star Trek Experience. Jason likes to go there and drink the Warp Core drinks. Let's just say, it's a very strong drink made for more than 2 people and I didn't like it, so yes....Jason drank it ALL! Needless to say he was having fun. When the drink comes out it's 'smokin', so everyone around us was curious. This older lady next to the table wanted to try it, so the waiter brought her a glass and Jason gave her a glass full. Later on, we saw her husband in the casino and he said she sucked that drink down and was now riding the motion ride. I thought OH NO! What a mess that could be!

Anyways, THANKS MOM AND DAD! We had a great weekend. But, I missed MARA so much. It's the first time I was away from her.

Biscuit Time

We recently started giving "baby biscuits" to Mara. It seems to help w/the teething. She has been teething for a while, but no teeth yet. Some days are good, some days are bad.

Last night was a really rough night. She woke up at 1030pm and stayed up for 2 1/2 hours, she was really fussy. Nothing worked. Daddy has a little bit of a cold, so I think she has a touch of it combine that with teething and she is just not herself. She's running a slight temp, runny nose, cough. She doesn't seem to have an appetite either.

I feel so bad for her, I wish there was something I could do. But for now, Mommy just holds her like she wants and sings to her.
