In celebration of Jonah's birthday, last weekend we took him to Legoland for the first time. It was so much fun and perfect for a little two year old! We met our good friends, James and Jennifer and their two little ones at the park. Owen, their five year old, was our tour guide and was so excited to show Jonah around! We were there all day and Jonah didn't take a single nap, but he was a good trooper and had a great time. Here he is on his first ride. It was a little boat ride through a fairytale town made of, what else, Legos! He's so cute in his little hat!
Next we went to a fun area where kids can just run around and play. I think it was actually called "Play Town"! Jonah and Owen had a lot of fun running around, climbing up the fun houses and sliding down. It was a great place for both of them to burn off some energy!
A big obstacle course-type maze for the kiddos
Fun little Lego fire station and firetruck
Big boy! He went up the ladder and down the slide all by himself! He was so proud of himself, he did it about five more times!
Too cute!
Play town had a little water section where the kids could play with water toys. Of course, this meant they would get soaked!
Henry had fun hanging out in his hat watching Jonah. He can't wait for next year when he can run around too!
Jonah and Daddy went on the big helicopters. He wasn't too sure of this one.
So all the boys (minus Henry) went on the fire truck ride. They got into little fire trucks and had to pump it to make it move. They raced against three other fire trucks to get to the "fire", put it out with the hose, and race back to the finish line. There was a reason only the boys did this one! :)
Somehow, Dan and James were the only ones pumping and steering. Owen and Jonah were just along for the ride!
Owen is putting out the fire, while Dan and James continue to pump the water out. Jonah was so excited at this part! He was too cute jumping up and down cheering them on!
Yay! They won!! (If you look in the window of the truck, you can see Jonah's head. He had no idea what was going on and probably didn't even know the ride was over!!)
Henry pretending to go down a waterslide - this is as close to his adventurous side as he would get!
Some new friends
Later in the day, we made it to "Spray Town". Oh, Jonah could have stayed here all day. I think Owen would have stayed with him! We forgot his swimsuit, so we suited him up in a swimmy diaper and let him go crazy. He was SOOOOO happy!!
Last ride was this fun little airplane. Jonah was really not into this one. A little to speedy for his taste.
We had such a fun day. We were able to purchase a three month pass from Costco, so we'll be taking the boys back for a fun Halloween celebration they have where the kids can "Brick-or-Treat". Should be fun and we'll post those pictures when it happens.
Here he is before his first official meal! He's so cute! So we started to offer him rice cereal shortly after he turned four months old. He seemed interested, but after a few bites, he started choking and gagging. So we put the rice cereal on hiatus for another month.
What IS this stuff?
mmmmm, not too bad!
Well, anytime I take a picture of Henry, someone else wants his picture taken too. He's so cute, I can't resist such a cute request!
Let's try this again - so we tried the rice cereal again now that he's five months old and he LOVES it!
More please!
