Wisconsin Dells

Last month we drove up to the Wisconsin Dells for a fun filled weekend! This place has to be the water park capital of the world...I've never seen anything like it! Nate had a blast as he went up and down the water slides, as Matilda and I floated the 1 ft deep lazy river. I wish I had pictures of Matilda in her inter tube, walking the river. She thought it was so hilarious when she would come up to another toddler floating along and their tubes would bump. This place will be tons of fun as she gets older.

We also went on a little hike...

And we met up with Susannah and Kevin! Here, Matilda is demonstrating her social anxiety.

Overall, we had a great time riding the waves and it was so great to spend some time with Susannah and her soon to be in-laws!!! Perhaps we'll make it a tradition!

Stitch

Saturday, Matilda had her first trip to the Emergency Room. Not one of those "first" moments that you ever want to happen. While playing that morning, she took a spill, face first into the corner of the banister, cutting her top lip open. At Children's, the doctors did a phenomenal job treating her wound giving her just one stitch. They also tried their best to keep Nate and I calm. Matilda was so brave. We are very thankful that she didn't get seriously injured and are really hoping that we won't have to go back anytime soon.

Here are a couple of pics taken last night of her almost healed lip and stitch:



The stitch is coming out this afternoon...yay!!
