Vegas Here We Come!

We're in Vegas Baby!!!! So, I had the hardest time ever leaving my Catherine!!! But, I must say it was for the best. I have been able to catch up on my sleep and shop etc.... I didn't realize how much sleep I needed to catch up on! I slept all afternoon yesterday! That was of course after shopping, so I'm not sure which one it was? I have been to the Jimmy Choo shoe store, Ralph Lauren Couture and many fabulous art galleries all in our hotel!!!! Oh, I also went to Barney's NY and found a $1800 dress that was precious, but not much fabric for the price! The lady at Jimmy Choo's wanted to help me find something. I told her, "No, I just wanted to see a pair of Jimmy Choo's shoes in real life." She then offered to sell me a pair of sunglasses for $250! Oh, the life of Babylon! I must say, I do have an appreciation for well made tailored clothing, but right now I just don't appreciate the price tag.

Poor Johnny has gotten a stomach virus since we've been here! I've been giving him Tylenol and Advil every two hours. His fever has broken as of this morning. So, we are hoping he will continue to get better as the trip continues. He has to, because we have tickets to see "O" on Wednesday, and we still want to see the Hoover dam. Plus, he has to oversee me at the tables to make sure I don't overstep my gambling limit. I'm the one who leans more towards an addiction.

The best thing so far, is our hotel has a restaurant owned by the Cheesecake Factory! So, they sell their Cheesecake 24 hours a day, even for breakfast!!!! They have my favorite, white chocolate raspberry!!!! I was so excited to find it. Of course, I'm all about the food!

Finally a New Post!

Ok, Ok, Ok,!!!! So, I've been a little behind on the whole blog posting thing! A lot has gone on since Halloween to say the least! I had a birthday and am now 27. Catherine's first Christmas was wonderful! She really enjoyed opening presents much more than we thought she would! For New Year's we were so spontaneous! I went to sleep at 8:30 and Johnny went to sleep at 10:00! I must say this was the first year we didn't stay up to at least watch the ball drop in NY. We are officially boring! Catherine turned 1 in February and we had a family party for her! It was also her first time to have sugar. She did not like her cake at all. She threw a fit and cried as soon as she realized she didn't like it and the icing wouldn't come off her hands. She is definitely a girl who does not like to be dirty! We have it on video and it is hilarious! Since then she has started talking and recently walking a little. She has been saying Daddy for months now. Finally she is saying Momma! It is like, I went through all of what for you to say who first? She even said Dog before Momma! I mean come on! Oh well, I thought for the longest she was going to call me something like nunu or nene. You know some name that kids come up with that sticks that isn't what the name originally was suppose to be. As long as it wasn't Big Mamma I was fine! I don't have a lot of pictures to post, but you can look at Catherine's 1 year pictures online! Go to www.ashleycarsonphotography.com click on proofing and the password is catherine. Enjoy! Johnny and I are going to Vegas next month and I am so looking forward to it! It will be a nice getaway from things! Things have been very hectic with the two houses etc.... Plus come to find out I'm anemic and very vitamin D deficient! So, I'm dragging! There, those are my excuses for not posting! I now give the disclosure of making no promises for posting for another 6 months due to more chaos that I'm sure will come up!
