Disneyland Vacation!

We just got back from Disneyland and we had a great time! We had the best weather. I was a little worried before we had left because it had been raining there but every day was awesome weather. We went to Disneyland that first day and Halle loved going to see all of the Disney Characters. I was a little worried that she wouldn't want to go on any of the rides but she rode everything she was tall enough to go on. She even went on the Matter Horn which I thought she would freak out but she loved it! The second day we went to California Adventure for the first half of the day. She loved the Toy Story Ride the best there. We then went back to Disneyland the second half of the day and Halle gave her Binkys to Mickey Mouse. (I know she is a little old to still have a Binky and I have been wanting to get rid of the Binky for a long time. We got rid of it for the most part when she turned two but then I got pregnant and that all went out the door. Then I had Cole and there was no way I was going to take it away then, so finally with no more excuses we had her give all of her Binkys to Mickey Mouse and now she is officially done with the Binky! Yea!!)

On the 3rd day we drove down to San Diego and went to Sea World. I was a little disappointed because the people don't get into the water with Shamu anymore. Halle had a great time there though. The last day we went to the Wild Animal Park and the Beach. I think that the part of the trip Halle wanted to do the most was going to the beach and making a sand castle and making sand angels. She did so good and Cole did pretty good himself (I was surprised). We had a great time and I am so glad we went. I was a little worried to go taking a 3 month old and all but it turned out great!
The Tea Cups were her favorite ride! She wanted to go on them over and over again. Toph was a good sport. He went with her every time because the Tea Cups make me sick.

I think she was a little sad because she just gave Mickey her Binky's.

Again she is not looking at the camera. Shocker!

More Tea Cups!

Great picture I know, but it was the only one I had with both kids.


Halle has to do a pose in every picture.

He did really good in the stroller!

Toph took this picture. I don't know know why he cut Big Bird's head off. :)

I didn't get that many pictures of Cole so here are some random ones.


It is so hard to get her smiling AND looking at the camera!

Sea World. They had a water section which she loved play at.

Wild Animal Park

I think the sun was a little bright for Cole.

Our beautiful sand castle! Yea I know it is a pretty weak sand castle.

Making sand angels.

Looks like u guys had fun. Now i have to find a way to get Matt to go. Glad it worked out. I wonder if they are taking a break at Sea World, with trainers getting in the water because of what happened a while back, that trainer died, during a show. Bummer!

glad you guys had a great time. there are so many fun things to do down here. We never do any of them unless we have visitors. The pictures are adorable, you look great! Cole is getting so big.

It must be the age. Skye is just starting to cooperate with looking at the camera and smiling. She still does her thing where her face is pointing at the camera but she is looking somewhere else. It's frustrating!!! It looks like you guys had so much fun. I wish we could have gone!!! Good idea with the binkis...Does she still like Mickey now that he has her binkis???

I love Disneyland so much, I'm very jealous! I loved the tea cups when I was a kid but even the thought of them now makes me want to puke haha. I'm glad you had fun! I need to hear about it in person at a girls night though... :)
