Splash Visit

We drove to Auntie Di's in Bedford today for another visit to Splash. After getting hugs sent from Grandma, having fun with masks, eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and lathering down in tons of sunscreen, we enjoyed several hours in the sun and water.



Lorelei spent pretty much the entire day in the lazy river. She loves that it just pulls her as she floats along. At the very end of the day she decided she was up for the "double slide" and we went down together (but she can't ride on lap so that kept her from it before) and she went three times and then she threw a big fit we had to leave as she wanted to slide more. At least we will have a little variety from the lazy river next time!
Makin did his usual walking around in the water. Got lots of "how old is he?" and surprised responses. He also took a little cat nap on my lap and enjoyed his snack time to recoup from all this outside time. :) We have started him on a sippy cup to help with surgery recovery (have to find one that needs less sucking though) and let him drink water on days like today. He loves it. Fun does not deter this boy from food! His favorite spot was by the net set up around the kiddie boat slide.


We are hoping to get in one more trip before it closes towards the end of August. And what fun it is to visit Auntie Di and get some one on one time with each kid!

Amendment...made at around 11 pm, an hour after posting this, when our little girl is back to sleep after getting sick tonight, apparently suffering from heat exhaustion. Let's just say we will have no more 3 hour trips outside in this heat. If we make another trip it will have to be a short one!
