Six Flags

We had a BLAST at Six Flags on Sunday. It was very crowded but we still had a great time. We also had awesome weather.

Connor was a real thrill seeker. He rode a lot more rides than I thought that we would and wasn't even scared. One of the first "scary" rides we rode was the Conquistador. I assumed we would ride in the middle because that part doesn't go so high, but no Connor wanted to ride at the top of the boat. So he and the rest of the crew rode up there while Jax and I sat in the middle facing Connor. As the boat started to pick up speed, I started doubting myself as a parent. I couldn't believe that I let me little boy ride at the top of this big boat and I could see him falling out and flying at me in my imagination. I started freaking out a little....but then I started watching Connor and he was having a blast and wasn't scared at all. He rode the Judge Roy Scream and absolutely loved it, that was his favorite ride. The biggest ride that he could ride was the Shock Wave, you know the one with TWO loops. He kept saying he wanted to ride it, Brock kept saying no but at the end Connor and I rode it. Again I questioned myself as a mother. How could I let me little boy on this scary ride? He didn't like this one so much, it really scared him, but he never cried.

We stayed at Six Flags from1 until 10. We didn't expect to stay that late, but as it got dark and colder, everyone left and rode a lot more rides. Jaxson didn't feel good the whole day and wanted me to hold him. So I walked around most of Six Flags holding an extra 35 pounds. Kaden stayed with my mom.

We had a great time and can't wait to go back!!!
