Thursday, December 29th

Got Bandit from the vet today. He had to stay over night because he had a bandage on his owee.

Surprised the kids with CocoKey today. We got a room for one night and went swimming. The kids had so much fun. Usually we stay in one section, the kiddie pool area with the blue slide and wading pool. This time we ventured off and let the kids do other stuff since they are bigger and that area is a little boring for them.

They went over in the bigger kid section. The kids went down a yellow slide that had water at the bottom. We went in the lazy river in floaties. They had a double inner tube with seats, so we used that for Aden and Taygen and one of us walked with them and the other walked around with Keira in a bigger tube. It was super fun to be able to do something different and be in the water with the kids instead of just standing, watching the kids slide and swim.

Great day! Got back to the room after eating supper, playing games and going back to swim for an hour before it closed. The kids and hubby are fast asleep and I am sitting here listening to other kids scream and yell while they play in the "hotel" pool. We got a room with a "pool" view. We didn't realize it when we booked it, but they are doing construction on the CocoKey part, so we couldn't get a room on that side. At least, we didn't have the sun beating in the window when we woke up like we usually do.

I'm glad the kids are sleeping, I know I can't sleep with all this yelling. Before Keira went to sleep, she said, "Mom, why are they still playing in the pool, isn't it going to close soon?" I said, "Yes, Keira it closes at 10, in about 30 minutes." Luckily, she fell asleep. Now, I am listening to Aden and daddy have a snoring contest. I think Taygen is in the middle of that contest also, she has had a really bad croup like cough and has had trouble breathing, so she is breathing kind of hard, making a snoring sound.

Well, time to get to bed, we have another big day of swimming tomorrow.
