First Family Trip- Part 2

Day two brought with it some fun in the pool! We woke up around 6. Big guy had actually slept through the night- woo hoo! We got up, had some milk, and decided to go for an early morning stroll. We walked around the duck pond, then headed over to find the cool indoor pool area for kids. After finding it, we swung by the golf course and went to the playground. After a while, big guy got grouchy, so we went to our room for some breakfast.

Big guy ate his normal fare- oatmeal and fruit. After he was finished we went over to the Smorgasbord for breakfast. Mmmm, so much food. Big guy surprisingly did well again and calmly ate scrambled eggs, "vacation bacon" (thus named b/c at home we eat turkey bacon, bagel with cream cheese and some banana. Hubs had two plate fulls of savory and sweet breakfast items. following breakfast we relaxed in our room and got ready for the pool!

We decided to splash in the kids pool first, as it was already brutally hot out. big guy was at first apprehensive of the kid pool. I think b/c it was really big and indoors. But after a few minutes he was loving life. He bravely explored the rainbow sprinkler, the cool frog slide, and wanted to go to the deep end! I think once he saw the big kids doing it, he was definitely invested in giving it a try. After about 45 mins it got a bit crowded, so we went to the indoor big pool next door and there were barely any people.

The big pool was so warm, like bath water. Big guy loved it even more than the kid pool. A total water baby. He especially liked being held on his belly and practice kicking. just like me as a kid. He's going to live in the pool once we can get a membership in a few years. After swimming for another 30 mins, we decided to head back to see if Grandma J had arrived for lunch. Turns out she had! We ate at the Sonic (big guy's and my first time) and then did a little outlet shopping! yes! big guy ran around the j crew outlet like a mad man- flirting with all the preppy girls.

Then we did a nice nap time (again, everyone napped.) When we got up we had an early dinner. Big guy FREAKED OUT in the dining hall and we had to go eat some yogurt in our room. But we did come back just in time for me to eat some soft serve with brownies for dinner. Yes, very healthy! We then went to the pool. The little kid part was super packed. We went to the indoor pool and it was chilly, but felt good. Until big guy's lower lip started to quiver- omg, his teeth were chattering- so cute and pathetic. so, we checked out the big outside pool, mmm, another deliciously warm pool. We saw for maybe 90 mins.

Big guy made some friends with older girls- like between 5-10 years old who were playing with water toys. He even played catch for a while. So cool to watch him figuring everyone out. Again, he was so thrilled to be in the pool. We said bye bye to the pool and took a bath and then it was to bed. Hubs and I sat on the balcony watching harry potter and enjoying the much cooled off weather. Awesome day #2!
