Kansas City has a great water park hotel, Great Wolf Lodge. You typically have to stay at the hotel to swim at the water park, but we snagged a deal to just get tickets to the park. It was so fun! I mean, I was expecting it to be a good time, but we had a BLAST! We took all three kids in the morning. Lincoln was in his car seat the majority of the time, he never made a peep, completely entertained and he loved all the white noise. We took him out at the end and took him swimming for the first time! He liked the water as long as it wasn't too cold. (sorry about the quality of the pics, we didn't want to bring our camera so these pics are from my phone).
loves swimming with daddy!
This picture makes me laugh, Sadie is embracing her role as middle child! As I was trying to take picture of Case holding Lincoln, she jumped in front of the camera to do a bunch of "tricks".
Then we went home for nap time, Case couldn't quite make it until we got home, he crashed in the car with a french fry sticking out of his mouth! After naps, we dropped Lincoln off with a friend and took the two big kids back to Great Wolf Lodge. The park was practically empty that evening, so we had the run of the place. Case was fearless, he loved absolutely everything at the park.
This obstacle coarse thing was great. Case ran around on this thing most of the day. He climbed up nets, swung on ropes, shot water guns, and even stood under the water when the huge green bucket at the top filled up and poured out 1000s of gallons of water onto you. I stood under it and thought it hurt a little, but Case loved it!
Here are the kids, howling like a wolf!
And having races down the kiddie slides! Sadie spent a lot of time in the little kids area. In the evening when I didn't have Lincoln, she was much braver since she had me or Matty right next to her. We went down some really big slides on a double tube and she had so much fun. They had this huge plastic snake the kids could ride on in one of the pools, and Sadie just wanted me to hold her by the snakes head so she could say over and over again, "ohhhh, i wuv you snake, i really really really wuv you!"
I was really impressed with Great Wolf Lodge, it was really kid friendly, but Matt and I still had so much fun!
