With less than two weeks to go until Christmas I’m sure some of you are already thinking ahead to New Years Eve. I won’t be doing much celebrating this year, (maybe from my couch with some sparkling cider) but I know a lot of you will be heading out-of-town. Las Vegas is always a popular spot to ring in the new year and I think Aria Resort and Casino would be the perfect place to stay if you’re thinking about heading out there. The location is pretty great, it’s very central on the strip with a tram that takes you down to The Bellagio or up to The Monte Carlo. The resort and casino are so nice and clean I never felt like I was getting a lot of second-hand smoke like most casinos on the strip. And there are SO MANY great restaurants right on site. I wish we’d had more time to try them all.

This week is kind of crawling by, but at least it’s Thursday! My days are pretty packed up until the holidays which is nice and a little stressful at the same time.

We had so much fun on our quick trip to Vegas last weekend, these pictures are from a day we spent at The Shops at Crystals – which was connected to our hotel. It was super convenient and dangerous at the same time. I decided that the best way to do Vegas pregnant was to shop so that’s what our day consisted of Sunday… and a little Saturday, if I’m being honest.

Over the weekend Jeff and I hopped over to Las Vegas for a quick pre-babymoon, if that even exists. I know Vegas doesn’t sound like the most conventional place for a pregnant girl but we made sure it was pregnancy friendly. We were hosted by The Aria and were welcomed with a spacious room and relatively smoke-free casino and really enjoyed our stay. We also loved that the hotel was connected to The Shops at Crystals and had fun shopping there.

Happy Cyber Monday! Did you score anything amazing on a Black Friday discount? Don’t worry, if you didn’t, there are so many great sales today! After a restful weekend of eating too much and decorating for Christmas, I’m using today to stock up on gifts and some things we need for baby girl.

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Now we’re officially in the holiday crunch – I can’t wait to decorate my house! Before that starts I wanted to share some of my favorite Black Friday sales in case you’re like me and would rather shop in your PJ’s than fight the crazy crowds.

It’s been creeping up on us but I still can’t believe Thanksgiving week is here! I’m so excited for a few relaxing days with my family and all the stuffing and pie I can eat! I actually got a head start at a Friendsgiving over the weekend and this is what I wore. It was a monumental day because I broke out my first pair of maternity pants… I was saving them for the occasion and can’t wait to wear them again Thursday. I’m not sure what I was waiting for because they’re the most comfortable pants ever and perfect for the carb overload I had.
