Here it is...8:58 and I'm up. It's the earliest Aleah has been up all week and the latest that the boys have slept. Carter just got up and Evan is still sleeping. Not complaining, just amazed that we've had a little role reversal. Today we're planning to hit up the water parks and the rest of the family will be joining us at some point today. Amanda and Jayson will be here until Saturday and if Josh and Amanda come, it will be just for the day. (For those of you that are slightly confused, yes...I have a sister and a sister-in-law named Amanda! And to really get you, my mom and my mother-in-law are both Sue and my sister-in-law Amanda is married to my brother Josh and also has a brother Josh....ok, ok, I'll stop). :) So back to activities....water, water, water.
Yesterday the five of us, along with my parents went on a jet boat tour of the upper dells. Wow!!! It was a bit spendy, but the kids LOVED it and I have to admit, so did I. Instead of the traditional Wisconsin Dells Ducks, this Jet Boat goes fast....supposedly 40 mph. Fast enough that my hair was constantly in my face! But it doesn't just go fast...the driver does fast stops, 360 degree turns, etc...plus you get to see the beautiful scenery! I would definitely recommend it if you come to the Dells! Even Aleah, our squirmy 2 year old did great!
Last night the kids and I went to the waterpark until it closed and they kicked us out! So after a few games and showers, we all hit the hay a little earlier than normal (or normal for this week). Trent and Carter both had upset stomachs and just weren't feeling the best. Hopefully it's just a combo of sun and lack of sleep. Pray for them, though....it's awful being sick on vacation and it was a year ago that Trent ended up with Rheumatic Fever!
Off to make breakfast and convince Aleah that she does not need any Oreo cookies yet!
