By the time we arrived at Noah's Ark pool at 10:10am Lainey was asleep. She falls asleep so easy in the car. I wonder who she gets that from?

We ended up having a blast. We met other moms from Divine Design there so it was nice to see friends. Cambry was very independent and brave running around and going down the slides by herself. She wanted to go in the big pool too (with her puddle jumper on). Lainey liked the water but I had to stay 3cm away from her at all times because she is not the safest.

When we finally left, both girls were asleep in the car within minutes. I do love a peaceful drive. Cambry and I hung out then I had to wake Lainey up a couple hours later for Cambry's swim lessons (more swimming!). And there were no tears!! Then we came home and did baths and I prepped dinner and we waited for daddy to get home. I was completely exhausted but it was a super fun day.
