This past Thursday we made a day trip to Sea World! We were prepared but a little concerned about the heat with a 2 year-old and 7 month pregnant woman but we survived. Our plan was to hit the shows early so we could be at the water park by the afternoon.
Unfortunately Jillian wasn't too happy about riding in the stroller too much so Daddy had to carry her on his shoulders a lot. At least she realized very quickly that Mommy was not going to carry her around the park.
We headed to see Shamu 1st and Jillian was really excited!
When you combine the music from the show, Shamu, and the very excited face of a 2 year old, it makes for a very emotional pregnant woman...so yes, I was the crazy person crying when Shamu came out. I felt like an idiot but I couldn't help it! Jillian just looked so happy!
Jillian wasn't very interested in the ski show but she sure did like watching the "trains" (roller coasters) near by
We found a couple of rides that Jillian could do and she really enjoyed riding the horse.
By this time, we figured it was time for lunch and to cool off so we left the park for about an hour and a half to eat in the air conditioning and not have to pay a fortune for food. When we got back we tried some more rides.
Mommy was actually able to buckle herself into this one so I was able to ride with Jillian. She liked it at first but when they were unloading kiddos and we kept stopping, she was done! She kept saying that the seat was hot so she got out of the seat belt and kept trying to stand on top of the ride. To say the least by the time we got off, Mommy was frustrated and Jillian had had enough! It was time to head to the water to say the least
We were able to cool off and Jillian really enjoyed playing in the kid water area! After this everyone was in a much better mood! We hit one more show and called it a day. It was 10 before we got home! I never imagined that Jillian or I would make it that long but it was a good day! We will be more prepared and have a better plan next time. When we were in line for our tickets someone handed us an even better coupon than the one we had and it was good for a 2nd free visit so of course we have to go back now!
