Great Wolf Lodge...

We took the kids up north to Great Wolf Lodge for a long weekend a few weeks ago! We went with the Herweyers and it was a great weekend! The kids had a blast and loved it!

Well, 3 out of the 4 loved it! We got in Thursday afternoon and by bedtime I could tell Stennson really wasn't feeling that well. He had a cold that week, but now had a fever too. By 10pm he was awake and miserable. By 3am I was 110% positive he had his 1st ear infection. At 6:30am (after a night of no sleep and walking him around a tiny room) I was at the urgent care doors waiting for them open :)! By 7am we had a script for antibiotics, by 9am we were headed back down to the pool area! He was a trooper!! He felt miserable, but he went with the flow and by that night the meds were helping some! I thought several times how different his life is from Shaelyn's. If she had an ear infection at 6 months I would have never left the house for a week - let alone had her in a water park 2 hours later! But, in many ways I feel like he is better off for it. We survived, he was sweet as can be and we all really had a super fun weekend!!

6 of the 7 kids! (Jacob was in bed)
Down for the story hour they do at bedtime! Kids thought it was fun!

They make it "snow" with bubbles, very cute!
Love this girl! (yes, you can tell poor Stenn feels miserable!)

Off to the awesome water park!!!
