Early this week we got a 3 day pass at the YMCA. Since we're staying with my parents we thought it would be a fun place to take the kids after work and on the weekends.
We were slightly overzealous going into it Tuesday night: we went after work, dropped the kids at the Kids Zone (they did great!), worked out, then went for a family swim.
First of all, going in to a family changing area with a two year old (who's just dying to open the door while you're changing), and a squirmy little 6 month old isn't easy, let alone the fact that after you're done, you have to strip off your own wet clothes as well as said children's, all the while ensuring no one is dropped (6 month old) or runs out of the room while you're stark naked (2 year old).
Two kids gives you such unfortunate insight into how easy you had it with one... sigh.
Anyway, we will probably never do this again. It was George's first swim (yay for fun firsts!) and he really seemed to enjoy it. His little legs started kicking as soon as they met the water. Abigail on the other hand was not so keen. She's been going through an I-hate-taking-baths stage, so we somewhat expected it.
And since we're gluttons for punishment, we decided to find a hotel in Leavenworth this weekend with a pool.
But at least we can change in our room, with the deadbolt set..
