So when I ran out of time yesterday we were at the Exploration place in Wichita doing strange things. We also did lots of learning things. Our favorite was this room full of brain puzzles.
Bean was feeling pretty sleepy and all the games were too hard for her.
So we moved on to more exciting things like snacks
water table
tornado tube
airplanes
and little creatures in cages.
It was a long morning and we were all pretty beat when we got out of there. Bean and I went back to the hotel and she took a 3hr nap while I did some work and then watched tv. Pumpkin and Heath went to Jendra’s house for lunch and hanging out.
When bean got up we were hungry but wanted to wait to eat dinner so we decided to go for a walkabout. I let Bean lead and we wondered our way around the hotel. Eventually we made our way outside and found a little fire pit by the river.
It was too cold and windy to stay out for long and shortly after we got inside we came across Heath and Pumpkin so we all went to dinner in the hotel. The “snacks” were just as good as the night before if not better. I was really hungry from skipping lunch and probably overdid it. We needed to walk off some dinner so we showed everyone the fire.
Then we went back to the room and changed so we could swim some more.
We did a lot of blowing bubbles and playing around.
After swimming the girls were beat and fell right asleep. Heath and I had some beers and watched the Hangover before bed.
In the morning Bean and I got up first and she was being pretty noisy so I took her to breakfast while the other girls slept in. They finally got up at 9:30 and joined us. After breakfast we took a late checkout and swam some more.
Then finally we showered, packed up and left the hotel.
We wanted to see Jendra and the girls were already hungry so we hung out at a playplace for a while before hitting the road. At first the girls were very alert and working on learning.
At our first bathroom break we got ice cream and once it was gone the girls were out.
Once home we just fed Berry and unloaded a few things then went right to Aldi to restock the fridge. We cleaned house some and ate big salads for dinner.
Last night we finished getting unpacked and cleaning up. I ran late at work and Heath made dinner and an apple pie thing. The girls helped me clean up the kitchen.
The last two nights Heath and I have been watching Once upon a Time on Netflix.
We caught Pumpkin watching it and wanted to find out if it was appropriate for her so we watched the pilot. It’s probably too much for her but we found ourselves wanting to know what happens and before I realized we are 5 episodes into the first season.
