Fun-filled Summer Day

A Toddler and her Momma, with fun under the sun! On a Sunny Sunday, Kara and I were wanting to escape the heat and go swimming. First we slept in, till 9:30am, and then made pancakes (a sad attempt at making the pancakes), my cooking is very hit and miss when it comes to pancakes. Some mornings these turn out so golden and perfectly round, other mornings they turn out completely opposite. Still eatable, just not so pretty.

After our pancake creations, we then went to North Point Water Park. A place to unwind, cool off from the Summer heat, and enjoy our lazy day along the Lazy River. At the water park was a river of water going around the perimeter of the park. (park in photos above) People would float along that river in rafts and pass under water falls and glide under bridges. I had never floated in a Lazy River before, but it seemed fun and relaxing. I took Kara to check it out with me. The lifeguard, at the entrance of this, told me there are 2 person rafts where one of the sides has a bottom to it, made so one can't put their legs though in the water. This was the perfect raft for Kara and I to float in. I was on the side with my legs through it and she was on the other side to sit safely in the raft. It gave me peace of mind. We ended up staying in that Lazy River for almost 2 hours! It was so much fun. Then we took a hot dog break and sipped lemonade. 

When we were done with the swimming. I called my friend to meet up at a Frozen Yogurt place, she didn't get my text message in time and we were getting in the car to go home (it is now 6pm) and ended up going to her house for a play-date with her son. Kara and her little friend are a few months apart. My friend was also pregnant. Kara wanted to see the baby in her tummy once more, before she's born.  

Heading back home, we went to Sonic for a burger and ate that while driving through the car wash at a gas station! Kara loved the car wash! I described to her all the different steps, there was, going on in the car wash. At the end of the day, it is now 9:30pm and bed time for the both of us! We had a jam packed, busy day of  fun in the sun. Our day was so spontaneous, and I loved it! And to top it off, Kara made a poo-poo in the potty!!! She is getting so good at that! We are about 90% potty-trained now! Proud Momma!
