On Friday (the 20th), we headed to Las Vegas.. 4 adults, 3 kids in one rented SUV. I was a bit more than freaked out about it.. 6 hours in the car with Zoe.. wow.. not a vacation.. but it worked out much better than I expected. She slept about 3 hours (wow!) and then watched movies and played in her car seat with Brooke.. she lasted until we got off the freeway in Vegas, and I had to sing songs until we made it to the hotel.
Quotes: I was singing "little bunny foo foo".. Brooke thinks the song is "little bunny tofu" (hehehe)
One the way, Barton said when Zoe finally woke up: "Zoe is much cuter when she is a awake. Her eyes are blue like the sun."

When we got to Caesar's, Zoe was so happy to be out of the car, she was kissing the floor.. actually I think it was because the floor was so shiny she was kissing herself.
When we finally got into the first room at Caesar's palace, Zoe was exploring and I one point I realize she is in the bathroom, the toilet room, you know the kind with only a toilet and a bidet.. and she has climbed up and is sitting in the bidet.. wow.. I jerked her out fast, she was scared.. not the kind of place you want your kid.. but at least it was the clean bathroom (the other one wasn't, we got a new room).
Vegas was fun, we spent a lot of time at F.A.O Swartz (ultimate toy shop). I bought Zoe an Madame Alexander doll (I had one when I was her age), some bath toys, and a Raggedy Andy to go with Raggedy Ann. Below is a picture of Zoe and Barton on the famous large keyboard at FAO Swartz.

The rest of the trip was nice.. and crazy, hard to keep a toddler having fun when most of the stuff was geared to kids much older. Everyone (especially Bruce, Barton and Brooke, enjoyed the midway, and they earned a bunch of stuffed animal prizes

The trip home was sort of the same, but with a 1 hour crying jag at the end. (From Nephi to Sandy).. lots of "little bunny tofu".
