Happy Birthday, Kai~Bears...

Kailee turned a whopping 12 this weekend! Holy Moly, where is the time going!? So our original birthday weekend plan was a trip to ATL, spending the day at Six Flags, dinner and then hanging out downtown. But, with the insane flooding going on...Six Flags was no longer an option. There was no way we could throw a party together in just a couple days...so we quickly weighed our options and ended up reserving 2 nights at the Loews Royal Pacific Resort @ Universal Studios! Kailee still thought we were heading to Six Flags...so she didn't think much of it when we packed up the car and headed out. She started catching on when we stopped for Starbucks in Jacksonville...Doh...and then all the Universal exit signs as we headed through Orlando...logic won out, when Kailee started to put 2 & 2 together. But, she was still surprised! It was after 11pm when we got in...so the lovins went straight into jammies and off to bed!
Lauren being a pesky lil sister... After a brief nights sleep, waking up to room service, we finally got up & at 'em. Before leaving for the park, Ryan gave Kailee one of her birthday cards. Listening to the crazy noise inside the card... Walking through the hotel lobby...photo op!

Before getting on Kailee's new fave ride! It wasn't open the last time we came. [in Feb]
So of course we had to try it out, regardless of the ridiculously long line. Kailee loves that you can pick your own music to ride too...and lucky her, gets to ride everything twice...thanks to baby swap!

As we were leaving Universal and heading over to Islands of Adventure....Kailee found this very fitting hat!
My fave I of A ride...
The Hulk!
After getting soaked on a bunch of water rides...and riding SpiderMan & Duelling Dragons. We decided to spend the rest of the afternoon in the Seuss area...so the patient little lovins could run around and have some fun too!
Haha...Daddy & Ry getting wet!
We got our fair share of water too...lol
Since the parks close at 6pm this time of year. I took the lovins back to the hotel to get ready for some swimming, while Kailee & Fred hit up the Hulk again!
There is a big spray ground attached to the pool.
.FUN.

After swimming we changed & headed over to City Walk for Kailee's Birthday dinner. She wasn't sure where she wanted to go...[in her defense there are SO many places to eat!] So after much debate we decided on the Hard Rock! Lambie was asleep when we arrived and Ryan fell asleep before they even brought our drinks. Lambie woke up in time for dinner...Ryan stayed passed out!
Whats a Birthday without alittle embarrassment!?
Hahaha...

Enjoying her Birthday Sundae

Whelp, that's it for day 1! Much more to blog, but we are off to Kailee's 1st actual softball game of the season!
