After tearing through his presents in record time, the boys went off for a haircut. Afterwards, we went to Walibi, the Six Flags equivalent here. They have a great section for kids, and the kids love all the rides. It's not as fun for us, to have to ride all the kiddie rides, but it's better than nothing.
Of course, the rides weren't without problems. All, obviously, had height restrictions. And it was bad news when Jack wasn't tall enough to ride the fake ponies around a track. And it was worse news when he discovered Amelia WAS tall enough.
The kids were insistent that TJ win them prizes. Jack received a giant inflatable hammer (I'll give you one guess as to the first thing he did with it. Yes, bonk Amelia in the head.) And Amelia played a solo game of Whack-a-Mole to win the tiniest pink dolphin you've ever seen.
The weather was forecast to be 66 and pleasant, which was seriously misleading. We had a few dry hours, then it would alternate between 15 mins. of rain, then a period of sun and blue sky. Then the rain would come, and the cycle would continue. At one point, there was a torrential downpour, complete with thunder. Luckily, it didn't last too long.
Then it was back to home for a Spiderman cake and lots of frosting eating (but little actual cake eating). He had a great day and told us over and over "Thank You." It was a great way to start off the 3s!
Big Happy Birthday hugs and kisses also go out to PopPop, who celebrates his special day today as well.
