We arrived to the next hotel in OKC late afternoon. We all got changed into our swim gear and checked out the pool. This one certainly did not disappoint. It was VERY kid-friendly. The deepest part of the pool was maybe 4' at the most. Isaac could walk around in most of it. It also had a little slide, a mushroom waterfall, and some water fountains. EVERYONE was quite pleased with the pool!!
The boys ate leftover pizza from last night while watching a movie, and we ordered food from the bar across the road. It was really good. I got chicken strips and mashed potatoes, and Ben got fish and mashed potatoes. The boys didn't take long to fall asleep...we had a full day, with lots of going going going.
Except this guy. Isaac SHOULD have been up there among the most tired. But for whatever reason, he fought it, and he fought it hard. It didn't help that he could easily climb out of the pack n' play, that may as well have been like a trampoline the second we put him in, he'd bounce right back out. We tried laying him down with his milk, rolling over like we were sleeping, and seconds later he would be laying on top of me with his face so close to touching mine to see if I'd wake up. He would bop my nose, and say, "bop. beep. bop"...he would say, "n-n-n-no no no YOU man" (the phrase that Uncle Mitch has been responsible for teaching all the boys), he would sing loudly, "a DINK of WAAAter" (a drink of water) even though he had had more than plenty to drink. Ben took him out and walked downstairs to warm up his milk, and after each SOLID attempt, he would get out of bed and restart the whole thing. It was completely hilarious...until it wasn't. It was a bit exhausting, and he got louder and louder. He finallllly caved, but it was late!
They had a large breakfast that was included in the stay. And afterwards, the boys wanted to swim again...before heading home. We had the pool to ourselves!
We headed home in the afternoon. It was a short, but fun getaway. I'd definitely do this one again. The science museum has more than a day's worth of checking out, and this hotel was a BIG hit.
