Colorado Kid!

It's been difficult to spend so much time at the office after getting 16 days of non-stop Mia time in China... So we decided to take a our first family trip! When Stacy worked at the Ritz we always heard how incredible the Bachelor Gulch property in Colorado is, but never made it there. So we figured this was a great weekend to get away together for a little quality family time! We arrived Thursday night and spent a little time out by the fire, as the photo attests. Mia was mesmerized by the flames for about 5 minutes, and then decided she prefered the heated indoors! Takes after her Mom...

Today was a day of total relaxation. We took a walk about the property, but mostly just played in the room and took naps together. We're planning on doing a little hiking tomorrow, as well as head into Beaver Creek for some shopping. I tried to get Mom to agree to get a Ritz babysitter so we could have a little parent time on Saturday night, but Mom was having none of it. I have to agree it could be a little strange if she woke up and a stranger was present in our place. Funny how much fun it is just to hang out in a hotel room together with no interuptions... Plus, Mom got her first nap since bringing our little girl home! To ensure Mom got quality sleep, Mia & I went for a stroller ride to tour the property. Somehow we stumbled upon the cutest pair of Baby Ugg's that miraculously found their way onto her feet!! Too cute.

Mommy & Mia...

When we checked into our hotel here in Colorado, Mommy & Mia spent a few minutes checking out the kitchen to ensure we had everything we needed to keep our little Mia plump & happy! It's been such a great getaway! Unfortunately Mia picked up a cold, so she's been a little cranky. However, just having a chance to spend a few uninterrupted days together has been really refreshing...
