Coleman had his 2nd birthday. I can't believe my baby is so big. And he's so sweet and cute and lovable. We had a great day on his birthday. Doug took the day off and we went to Wild Waves (we have season passes). We came home for naptime and then had a family birthday party that night after dinner.
We started the day off with a cuddle. Sometimes when he wants to get up earlier than I'm ready to get up, I'll bring him in bed and he'll cuddle with me for awhile. I love it!
Heading to Wild Waves
They have a section of rides just for little kids and some of the rides Colie's big enough to ride on. I thought he would be into them, but he wasn't. He wouldn't get on any of them.
The other kids loved them!
The nice thing is that my kids are all under 48 inches so none of them can do the bigger rides so we can just stay at the little kid rides and everyone is happy :)
Colie was happy being held.
Doug tried to ride with Coleman on this ride, but Coleman didn't want to.
When we went a couple weeks ago, Kenzie rode this ride but she wouldn't make it fly up high because she was too afraid. Later that day she went in an airplane ride with Jordan and he made it go up high. I was afraid she would scream, but she liked it. When we went on the ride on Colie's birthday she was flying high the whole time and loving it.
Jordan was excited to ride on the roller coaster with Doug. There are some rides that you have to ride with an adult if you're not tall enough, and since I'll usually becoming with the kids without Doug (since he has to work...) they won't be able to ride on these rides very often.
Last year Kenzie rode the Froghopper and hated it. She refused to go on it when we came before, but since she liked other high rides, she wanted to try this one.
She was pretty nervous once it started going up high.
Then she was happy...
Scared...
Happy. She loved it and he and Jack rode on it again later. It's Jack's favorite ride.
Doug took the boys on the boat ride. Jackson was nervous about it.
And said he didn't like it when it was over. Jordan loved it though.
Coleman did ride on the Merry-Go-Round. He was happy because I could hold him on my lap the whole time.
Jordan rode with us.
And Jackson. Kenzie was riding on a horse and Doug was with her.
Jordan and Doug went on the Kangaroo. This is one that Jordan can't ride by himself.
After rides we went in the water. The kiddie pool water is freezing! Coleman didn't want to touch it at all. Jordan was proud of himself for going down the yellow slide. There's a big bucket of cold water that pours on the kids from the top of the play thing so Jordan timed his sliding perfectly so he wouldn't get the water poured on him.
Then we went to the wave pool. The kids love it best here. They were practicing their swimming there.
Coleman jumped the waves with me.
Kenzie warming up.
We found a butterfly. (it's on the ground)
Coleman fell asleep on the way home. He still took a good nap at home, luckily.
Doug, Kenzie, Colie, Sam ready for the family party.
Coleman was actually into opening his presents. Kenzie had told me before the party that she would help him if he couldn't do it himself. She was disappointed he could :)
He was so excited for all of his presents.
I got all his presents at the Lakeland Hills Garage sale. I only spend $7.50. It was a record for me :)
Grandma and Grandpa Crabtree came.
Jack, Kenzie, Colie, Kimber
Grandma Dance had left a present for Coleman and part of it was these blower things. Sam discovered that she could blow it with her nose.
The other kids has to try it out.
Alli's trying it in the background :)
He did great blowing out his candles. He was pretty amazed after the first one blew out.
And was excited to blow out the second one.
He didn't want any of his cake though. He just wanted to play with his new toys!
