Our waterpark adventure

Last weekend we went to a local water park, Great Wolf Lodge, for two fun filled days. The room was perfect for the kids with a separate bunk bed/day bed for the kids and our bed on the other side of the wall. The park was perfect for Julianne. She was pretty independent and went on most of the rides by herself. The water was not any deeper than 4 feet so it was perfect for her. Mallory was able to enjoy most of the rides with D or myself. Nathan had fun in the wave pool and the outdoor area. They all went to story time and the local show before bedtime. Nathan did not take a nap and did not sleep very well with the girls but he did alright for not sleeping like he usually does. I was glad to get back and to have the kids back in their beds and their regular routines.

This is Nathan at the outdoor part. He loved getting into the water and quickly coming out to look at his footprints.



Nathan at the indoor wave pool. He loved the water squirting up.

He also loved the waves.

So did Mallory.


Julianne loved the water. She was a little water logged kid after our full day there. She is the only one in the family that can curl her tongue.

Nathan loved turning all the water spouts on and off.

Last week I was tired of the kids asking me when we were going to the pool so I bought a pool. I did not buy a baby pool I bought a real pool. It is 12 feet wide and at least 2 feet deep. So it took hours to fill up and it is staying until the end of summer. Our grass will die underneath it but the kids are loving it. It is nice because the girls can play in it while I am in the kitchen. Nathan is not too thrilled with it but that is not too unusual.

My good friend got a new puppy last weekend and he is adorable. He is only about a month old and is so cute. The boys like him and kept wanting to give him a "piggyback ride".


Things I am grateful/thankful for:
-Having a great safe vacation.
-Seeing Julianne becoming more comfortable with the water.
-Mallory trying new advertious things
-Nathan getting back to his sleep schedule
-coming home
