We just returned home from our trip to the coast on Sunday. And no sooner did I unpack our suitcases and I was packing it back up for my business trip to Kelowna for a three day course for work. Monday was a clean up the house and find room for all our new purchases & gifts from the coast, then a planning meeting for our upcoming fire department raffle dance in the evening. Then home to bed for an early drive into Kelowna. Thankfully I had booked a room for my stay and did not drive in every morning. And since the hotel I was staying at had a pool, Scott & Jackson came up on my second night and spent the night with me.
Supper at Red Robin's was very fun for Jackson. He watched the little train on the tracks above our heads all during our meal. Very good time killer until the food arrived. He would squeal out 'Train, choo choo!', every time it rounded into view. Then to poop him out even further, we took him for a swim in the hotel pool. I think our son is part fish by the way he takes to the water. And fearless! He was jumping into the pool from the steps into Daddy's arms by himself with no floatation devices. We have to find some swimming lessons for our little amphibian during these winter months.
Then back to our room for a bed time snack and a snuggle, then tucked into his own little cot. It was an adventure at every moment with this guy. Hotel beds seem to be a lot bouncier than regular beds and the toilet paper roll is so much more fascinating than the one at home. And his favourite new toy...the hotel phone. 'Hello, whatchew doin'?' is his newest catch phrase. Besides adding 'Why?' to every answer you give.
Lots of fun just the same and another memory to add to the book. And another blessing to count for time well spent.
