Our trip with Gavin to the water park was quite the experience! Aaron surprised me with the trip for Valentine's Day. He booked it for two nights, and we ended up not even staying a full 24 hours (HA!). Gavin was great- super well behaved and loved the park, but none of us slept good! (I take that back- Aaron slept good, Gavin and I did NOT)!
Gavin slept in the pack-n-play, but woke up more than he ever has, even as a newborn! Luckily, he would just fuss for a couple minutes and go right back to sleep. He decided to wake up for good at about 5am (way too early for this mom & dad) but was happy and content to just lay in bed and play with Aaron's hair, as you can see in the last picture. :)
We also got to listen to our neighbor's child scream (and it was legit SCREAMING) from 9pm-11:45pm because he didn't want to go to sleep (well, Gavin & Aaron slept through it, I was not so lucky).
Anyway- all of that aside, Gavin loved the water, he's a total water baby, but he was still too young to be able to really enjoy it. There wasn't a whole lot for babies, so all he could really do was look around and watch everything going on around him.
He loved the lazy river, and looked so darn adorable in his little swim shorts & robe!! :)
We will never again try taking a baby to stay overnight at a water park. That fun can wait until they're a couple years old! ;)
LESSON LEARNED!
I think we were ALL very happy to come home and sleep in our OWN beds that second night. ;)
That being said though, it was definitely worth it and was a lot of fun!
