Waterpark Fun!

A rare picture of just me

We spent at least part of everyday (Thursday-Sunday) at the waterpark. This is definitely a place we want to go back to. We all had so much fun! Brighton's favorite thing was to sit on the jetskis and shoot water. This kiddy pool was only 18" deep and had a few slides in it. There were so many things to do. Chandler enjoyed it too, but also liked going on the slides with mom and dad.

Here's Chandler and I exiting the large "family" waterslide. This ride could hold up to four people at once. Derek, Chandler, and I did get to ride it one time just the three of us and that was nice. Technically you needed to be 42" to ride any of the larger slides and Chandler is just shy of that. Luckily they were nice and let him on them anyways. Hopefully by the next time we visit, Brighton will be big enough as well.

This trip wasn't an easy one with our 3-month-old in tow, but Grandma definitely helped us manage. We couldn't have done it with out her. Maverick has now decided he is much less portable for naps, and that made keeping the "big boys" entertained harder since we had to let Maverick nap as much as we could. Luckily, he would take a morning nap in a parked stroller in the waterpark where I could cover it with a towel to make it dark and more peaceful. Believe it or not, he napped in the bathtub in the afternoons! We would put his bassinet in the tub, turn off the light and have the lullabies blasting from the nearest outlet. I'd usually strip him down to his diaper since he likes to be swaddled and I didn't want him to get hot in the stuffy bathroom. Once Brighton's afternoon nap was over, we'd head down to the waterpark where Grandma and Maverick would join us later.

All-in-all it was definitely a fun time even if it was a bit of a challenge juggling everybody's schedule. Can't wait to go back!
