Braxton, Kyler, and I (and Grandma Carol) are just getting home for an exciting weekend in Bismarck visiting Aunty Kerri and Cousin Kaleb. We spent the night at the hotel and swam (and swam, and swam!). Bracky wore his fish-jacket. He loved jumping off the edge and floating around. He was a little nervous about all of the waterfalls and stuff the first time, but was splashing around like crazy today. Kaleb was really loving the water and having everyone walk him around. He was splashing with the rest of them. And Kyler even got into the action a little, that is until he fell asleep by the edge of the pool. But he gave it a good run.
All six of us tried to make a run at sharing a hotel room. That didn't go quite as well as the pool, though. I have learned to never give a 2 year old diet coke and M&Ms an hour before bed... That didn't work out too well. At 10:30, I was driving around Bismarck with Bracky in the back seat, until he finally fell asleep. Right before that, the room was quiet, I thought he was surely sleeping, and he bursts out in song - "It's the Micky Mouse Clubhouse! Come inside! It's fun inside!..." Oh, good lord. About 2 hours later, Kaleb woke up and refused to go back to sleep. Kerri finally took him home - poor guy! (Or poor mom, depending on how you look at it :).
Needless to say, we headed home early today, but all in the name of fun :).
