Great Wolf Lodge

For Christmas this year, Santa brought our family a one-night stay at the Great Wolf Lodge in Kansas City. We added this night stay to the end of our trip to Topeka. When Cooper understood that the Great Wolf Lodge had a swimming pool, he announced, "Mom - I'm not going to go swimming there. We don't swim in the winter." We heard that several times before we got there.

Once we were there, we got our swimming suits on and headed to the waterpark. Cooper was extremely hesitant, and Miles was ready to go. There was a kiddie pool area that had water that felt like bath water. It had three small slides, and Miles went down the slides over and over and over. He didn't stop smiling as he slid. Cooper tried the slides twice. Try number two involved me pretty much pushing him down the slide. Try number three resulted in a mini-trantrum and no slide. Cooper was finished with that.

That night, we didn't get as much sleep as we needed, and Cooper pulled off his waterpark pass bracelet, declaring that he would not go back. :) We went back for a few minutes (after I wrestled the swimming suites on) the next morning, and it turns out he loves sitting in the hot tub. Interesting. :)
