Mommy and Daddy Mini Vacation

Brynn is now almost 11 months old and Mom and Dad were in need of a kid-free vacation. So, we planned a weekend get away to Las Vegas a few months ago. Mamaw and Papaw agreed to come keep Brynn. We were all excited.
Well, Thursday morning I sent Brynn to school with a low grade fever. By 11:30 they called, her fever had spiked and we had to go pick her up! She continued to run fever Thursday night so we headed to the doctor Friday morning in hopes that it was nothing serious. Turns out she had a form of hand, foot and mouth! Again! AWESOME! (note sarcasm!) Not only did she feel yucky, she wanted to eat but couldn't because her little throat was covered in blisters. Needless to say, Mommy was a little stressed on Friday deciding if we should leave town or not. Mamaw and Papaw assured us she would be fine and we knew she was in good hands! So.....we went!
It was a really nice trip. Our flight was delayed going there so we didn't get in until 11:30 Vegas time, 1:30 our time. I know we're crazy but we were so tired we went straight to bed!
Sat was an event filled day and we were glad we had our rest the night before. We headed out for some sight seeing in the morning then back to the hotel to lay out at the pool all afternoon! It was so nice to relax by the pool. We went to a nice dinner. See pics below. YUMMY! I had lobster tail and BJ had lamb. Then we went to the O show. It was great!

We slept in again, Ahhhhh, Sunday morning and then headed home!

We came home to a happy baby who had lots of fun even tho she was sick! She had her first art lesson with Mamaw and made me this beautiful picture for my birthday! It was so special!
And this is her new favorite pose to do in the middle of the living room floor! HEAD STAND! Can you tell her grandparents own a gymnastics center!?! It's so funny. She does it all the time now! She will be playing or crawling across the floor and just stop put her head down like this! 
My dad had also taken care of all sorts of odds and ends around the house for us. Baby proofing, cleaning our outside mister, fixing tile in the bathroom, changing air filters.....And my mom left me a clean house with laundry done!
So nice!
I think we'll have to do it again sometime soon!
