Mikko wasn't sure what he thought of the roller coaster…
…until he got on it. Then he went on it probably fifteen times in a row.
He still talks about it often, 3+ months later.
Don't let his expression fool you — that's his posing face, as you'll see.
Why does big brother get to have all the fun?
Fortunately there was a baby section.
And I was able to sneak Alrik onto a slow-going, mini-carousel with me by noncommittally answering the question of whether he could walk. (Real answer then: "Not far.")
Fortunately, he's a happy baby.
Thank goodness for babywearing to get around in a large, busy space!
It was Sam's turn to hold him, and my turn to ride…
Woo! Watch as I emote for both of us.
Mikko called these swings "monkey bobo swings," for no reason we could fathom, and insisted we also ride them a dozen times. Until I was dizzy enough.
Sitting up front to ring the bell!
(Alrik wasn't even allowed on this mini train here that went, like, 2 miles an hour.)
Good thing there were brothers around to tickle fight!
Attack!
Clearly only one of us knows how to pose properly in a theme park photo op.
Yes, exactly, Alrik! That's how it's done.
That was a successfully amusing day.
I'm giving away 5 copies of Poetry of a Hobo Mama for my blogiversary!

Oh my goodness! The "Attack!" picture of your two kiddos together is beyond sweet!
Looks like so much fun!
Clearly you and Alrik are the emoting pros of the family! Lots of wonderful pics, thanks for sharing!
