Snow Cones and Roaring Springs...

On Thursday night Mercedes came over because I had a doctor appointment in the early morning and she was kind enough as usual to watch JR so she just spent the night so I didn't have to wake him up early and bring him over there.
After I came back and JR had woken up we decided to go get snow cones. JR got a mini watermelon...


He loved it but was a little shocked at how cold it was when he would take a big bite!

Then on Saturday (today I guess) we went with Mercedes to Roaring Springs. JR is so much fun at the water park this year! Mercedes took him down the slide in the kiddie pool a bunch of times.
I was zoomed way in on this picture when I first downloaded it onto my computer and I just love the expression on JR's face. A mix of terror and pure joy...



I went down with them a couple of times too but as Mercedes will probably tell you I am a fraidy-cat and won't take JR by myself. Don't judge me because I am afraid of two feet of water. People drown in the bathtub, you know that right???

Moving on...to the teeter-totter. JR quite enjoys the teeter-totter when not on the slide. However he prefers it if he is the only person on it and either you are pushing him up and down or her is just climbing on and off of it when he pleases. Which would be fine if I weren't worried about some other kid climbing onto the other side and hitting him in the face with it.




It was awesome this time because he kept his hat on the entire time with no protesting at all. Also, I brought his little tube with the leg holes and he happily floated the endless river. Yay.

All that excitement results in one tired toddler after a couple of hours though which leads to this...

He never ever falls asleep in the car for short distance rides so I know he was wiped out!
