Sunday, right before church I tortured D with some modeling poses as it gave me a chance to practice settings with my camera.
After only one spanking threat at church we came home and got ready to go to Pirates Cove.
The theme park was really nice, it's not big but it has enough activities to entertain a 3 year old. Since D has been in the Pirate mode lately, it was perfect. I heard a lot of "ARRRRRGGGG" from both him and Ry. Everywhere we go now the two of them play pirates. Daddy is Captain Hook and D is Pirate Jake and every closet in our house is now "a hideout".
First stop a manual train ride
Notice his ears are covered when he came out. He does this whenever he doesn't like a noise.
Next on the agenda was a slide with daddy. I heard him yelling at the top "not this one, this one, I want to do it by myself". Finally, he realized he needed daddy. Not sure what the ear covering was for on this ride.
We stopped by some boats but he looked and wanted nothing to do with it, until we stopped again and he went for it. A pro.
We had lunch on top of a pirate ship, a boy's dream.
Then we realized it was HOT and needed to cool off.
And inside too
before we went back for more.and yes my child does match except that my bottle of water wasn't closed in the bag and his clothes got soaked.
This time he went on the carousel 3 times all by himself.
We came home and the boys were exhausted. D made it without a nap all day, he did rest on the couch watching Toy Story 3 while daddy slept and mommy made dinner.We still went for a bike ride in the evening and the boys enjoyed playing pirates at the park.
It's August and summer will be over before we know it. I love fall but wish we had that season last more than 2 weeks in Chicago.
Monday is here again, oh how I hate the beginning of a work week.
