A Colossal Mistake
yesterday we took the kids to the water park at Canada's Wonderland. We walked into the park at 10:15, and i was already tired, sweating, and had to pee. i was beginning to think i had made a colossal mistake. The husband and i tend to forget that i'm 39 weeks pregnant and that it was over 90 degrees outside.

Once we got to the water park, though, i completely changed my tune. it was great! because the water park opens early for season pass holders, we were able to get in when it was empty. we got the good chairs and got a great spot in the shade. We had a good system going - the husband would take one kid on a ride, and i'd stay and play in the splash area with the child left behind. it worked really well. Plus, we met up with two couples and their kids, which always makes these days more enjoyable.

we were completely wiped out by the end of the day, and could have easily gone to bed at 8pm. so, we jumped at the chance to go out for coffee at 8:30 - it was a good way to keep us up. little did i know how up it would keep me, and that drinking coffee at 9 at night was going to be my colossal mistake of the day! i swear, i was up ALL night.
