Day 2 at the Lodge

Today was a little different day for me. I woke up feeling a little off, so I decided I would just wait to go to the water park. I headed over to the Tanger Outlet Mall. It's just across the parking lot from our resort. I was walking through the Nike Outlet, the first store I went to, and I started getting a strange rushing feeling in my ears. Oh no, I knew this was how the low blood pressure feels when it first starts. I headed straight to the check out. There's a bench outside the store, and I knew I needed to get there quick! Unfortunately, my body decided it wanted to lay down earlier. The clerk asked if I was ok just as sweat started pouring down my face. I muttered something about pregnant and low pressure, and I was out. The clerk caught me and brought me safely to the ground. I woke up there to some very concerned clerks. They got me some water and a whole ton of candy. They went to the break room and searched through lunch boxes to get sugar for me. After I laid there for a while, they sat me up in a chair. I stayed there for a while. The man who initially helped me said his wife had the same problem, so he knew just what to do. Unfortunately, Jon and Mindy were at the water park without cell phones, so I didn't have anyone I could call. I stayed until I felt better then sat outside on a bench for 30 minutes drinking water and eating the candy the Nike store gave me. I called Tony at work just to alert someone to the situation. I made my way back to the hotel, text the K2s to come check on me when they were back, and I took a lengthy nap. Mindy came and checked on me and made sure I had a good lunch. I took another nap this afternoon, and now I'm good as new!

Tony arrived here around 4! He got off work a little early! We went with Harvey and Natalie to trick or treat around the lodge. One of the stops on our trick or treat route was the spa. Tony and Jon enjoyed a relaxing wait in the lounge.


There's our little tooth fairy getting a treat at the kid's spa, Scoops. 

After the tricks and treats, we went to Buffalo Phil's for supper. They deliver our food on a train! The kids thought that was pretty sweet! Here's Harvey playing on the train while we waited for our table.

Can you tell we were a little tired tonight? Natalie and Harvey spent hours swimming today! They were just exhausted!

But not too exhausted to get some play time in! 

The kids got their second wind during the Monster Bash Dance in the lobby after story time tonight.

Goodnight all! This tired mama is heading to bed early tonight! Tony's resting up for a day of water slides tomorrow!
