We had been planning for weeks to head to Wild Rivers today with Claire, Sterling and Jaxson....

Unfortunately, we woke up and it was a little wet and a little too cold for toddlers to be running around in a waterpark.

So, we put our heads together and Claire told us about this great little place in the Kaleidescope Mall in Mission Viejo that is a giant indoor playground for kids...and she pointed out that they even had guns that shoot balls (I think that was so the men would be willing to come and play).

So we decided to head on over...and look at all the fun we had for $15 (that was it for the four of us in our family!!)

Even Freddie was having a blast...and he had gotten shots just a few hours prior at his 18-month checkup!!
What a stud!  I'll post the stats below....

Also, Freddie insists on proving to us that he is all male...I swear this kid has NO FEAR when it comes to trying to climb and being curious!! Luckily this little play area was all soft...that made things a lot less stressful!!

Poor Greg, these kids apparently felt it was totally appropriate to pelt him with those foam balls...they were chucking those balls like they were major league pitchers!! Yeah, it was fun and Greg was throwing them back...but he had to keep reminding them to be careful of the little kids.  It's all fun and games until you pelt a grown man's child with a ball...then you're asking to die.  I'm just saying...

Greg finally got a bag to hold all his ammunition in....there were two punk kids and only one of him...he needed something to swing things in his favor!!

This ball area was so much fun...Freddie couldn't get enough of chasing the balls, picking them up and putting them into the different tubes and buckets - and Karyl stood up there shooting those air powered guns forever!!

Freddie absolutely LOVED this bounce house!! He couldn't do much jumping, but he would constantly try to stand up, stay upright for about 3-4 seconds and then fall back down and squeal with excitement!!

Oh, and we have no idea what it was about this game, but the boys couldn't stay away from it!!  Every chance they got they were both climbing all over it.  Maybe it was the lights??

My question is who thought it was smart to put just the men in there with the kids...that's like asking for a trip to the emergency room!!!

Now...as I mentioned earlier, Fredrick had his 18-month checkup this morning...here are the stats:

Height: 34.5 inches

Weight: 30 lbs. 6 oz.

Ah, yeah....he was pretty much off the charts as far as weight and height...

But luckily Dr. Tang praised us for having such healthy kids and reassured us that despite his size, he is proportionate - so he's just fine!! He's just not going to be a skinny kid when he gets older - we have a future football player folks!!
