It was only 70 degrees outside, and I'm pretty sure the water temperature topped out at 65, but once X-man saw the first big kid toss off his shirt and run through the spray and puddles, he was walking up to the kid's mom asking her to de-shirt him, too. The fact that it was the only parent he didn't know at the park was pretty humorous. But she was a very nice woman and was very chatty.
When he was finally done with the water, he refused a towel, until I wrapped him up in it and announced we were leaving. He protested, but then saw that Bubba and Pretty Girl had already left. The Boy and Miss Thang were on their way home, and Mealyworm and Bug were already wrapped up in their car seats.
Then and only then, did X-man decide he was cold. In his car seat, he demanded we push Riley off of the blanket, so he could have some warmth.
I put him in long sleeves and sweatpants for dinner. He ate warm left over french fries and chicken nuggets from Sunday while he watched Thomas (one day hanging out at Bubba's house and he decided he missed his favorite cheeky engines).
He didn't play at all. He just stared. His eyes were droopy. He finally fell asleep at 9:30 p.m. and at 8 a.m. he looks something like this:
I think I'll make us some whole wheat pancakes and veggie sausage this a.m. because now he's waking up. :-P
