Vegas Baby!

Red Rocks, Calico Basin
I am changing so fast it is hard for mommy and daddy to keep up. I am taking swimming lessons and I am very confident around water. I just started blowing bubbles and dunking my head. I can kick on my stomach and on my back. I can splash and do big arms in the water. I got lots of practice in Vegas over Thanksgiving. We went swimming everyday! I am saying lots of words and some in my own language. I love to say Hi to everyone and the Christmas lights have me saying "wow" and "tree." So far I can say, duck, dog, mama, daddy, tree, wow, hi, baby, fish, baba (bottle), no, yea and Santa. I can identify my mommy and daddy in a photo. I love to give hugs and kisses. I try to kiss the dog and she wags her tail! We had a great time in Las Vegas. I have new confidence out at the rocks and I loved watching my daddy climb. I didn't like when mommy went climbing, but I tried to be supportive. We went out to dinner at night and I enjoyed the scenery and lights. Mommy and daddy took me to the aquarium in Vegas and daddy took me out to get a fish tank and two fish. We named them Nemo and Dory. I am happy to be home now and I am looking forward to Christmas festivities. I have a birthday party for some of my friends this weekend and we are planinning on going to see Santa with Grammy and Grandpa.
