D had a Regional meeting with his company this weekend and they took us all to Great Wolf Lodge in Mason, Ohio. Wow, his company isn't at the top of Forbe's Best Fortune 500 companies to work for for nothing.
So we got all packed up and headed down on Friday. They also had babysitting during meetings (I had a couple they wanted me to go to as well.) P loved his babysitters and it was so nice to hear people other than me raving about my child. They all told me how much fun he is and how funny and the little silly things he does. And they looked genuinely sad when I picked him up. They couldn't believe all the words that he says and one lady couldn't believe how polite he is with all of his 'Thank You's', etc. Then he blew them kisses bye-bye and that knocked him dead. I'm so proud of my wonderful son.
It was a little weird to be with all the people that work for D's company (I'm not supposed to mention it by name because the company doesn't want me to use my blog as advertising for my husband.) Anyway, all these people are loaded. To put it in perspective... You know all the toy diamond rings you play with at the store, it's weird to see them be REAL. There was an awards ceremony where they mentioned what some people made in a month. WOW. One month, one guy brought home $40,000. It's literally jaw-dropping. I just can't imagine what I'd do with that kind of cash. I'm just so happy being poor-ish!
Anyway, moving away from the dollar bills... After D's meetings, we all had time to go to the water park! It took P about 15 minutes to stop being terrified of the water. He's never really liked it. We convinced him it was funny to splash people and then the three of us ran around all of Great Wolf Lodge havin the time of our lives. It didn't even matter we couldn't go down the big water slides because P is so teeny. It was wonderful. We spent a lot of time floating on the lazy river and P just cuddled up and D and I talked and it was the perfect time together! Here are a few pics:

P in his new swim diaper. He's so cute in it. Glad it's reusable!
D putting on P's life jacket. P was mad already!
Lazy River with my cuddly boy. My tan is a result of a week's worth of lotioning up. The best I can say for this pic is "Wow I have skinny legs."
My boys. P played very hard and was out like a light!
That's a good thing about workin for 'loaded' people-you get to go nice places! :) We haven't been to Great Wolf Lodge but we'd like to go there some time. Mason's maybe 40 or so minutes from our house.
ReplyDeleteWow, that all looks like a lot of fun! I've never seen reusable swim diapers, where did you find them?
