First of all, sorry i've been so quiet lately. i've had some serious computer issues and honestly there is very little time for me to do these things lately. I have two little boys running my life right now. and they rarely schedule time for blogging.
ok, enough excuses. February has been fun, busy and stressful all at the same time.
I got through with market and moved right into my birthday. it was nice. i took the day off work to spend the day by myself! i cleaned, i ran errands, i was very busy. that night Chandler took me to dinner and a movie - we saw the King's Speech and i thought it was very good. Chandler might have fallen asleep. We didn't do anything for the Superbowl and that was just fine with us.
Grammy showed up the next week to spend some time with the boys and take us to Disneyland. I was totally shocked when Cash asked if Wiley was coming with us because it had been months (Christmas) since we had talked about that. Luckily, by the time we actually got to Disneyland Cash had forgotten about it. We left for Disney in the afternoon and after a short plane ride, long wait for a bus and what felt like an even longer shuttle ride, we got there in one piece. The boys were pretty crazy the first night and no one slept well. we ordered room service and just tried to keep calm as the boys destroyed the hotel room. looking back we probably could have just given them a few garbage cans to push around and stack and they would have been fine.
The next morning we headed over to the park. It was a great experience and the weather was perfect. We rode a handful of rides quickly before the boys started to get hungry. Its a small world seems to be the ultimate crowd pleaser. Cash was totally amazed and Cooper was dancing along. It was also a nice opportunity to cool off as the weather started to get a little warmer. we had lunch and went on a few more rides with Cash as Cooper napped in his stroller. It turns out that as much as Cash likes pirates he does NOT like the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. He's never clung to me tighter. as the ride was pulling back into the loading station he said to Chandler and I, "I never, never, ever want to go on that ride again." I'll be sure to remind him of that when he's older. His most favorite ride, ironically, was the Jungle Cruise which i was informed that i didn't enjoy as a little girl. But i swear that they made that boat much smaller now and the animals used to be real. We headed back across the monorail to our hotel in the late afternoon for some rest time and dinner. Cooper fell asleep in his stroller again right after dinner so Grammy and I went back to the room to put him down while Chandler and Cash stayed in Downtown Disney and looked in the shops. Except i don't think they got much further than the Lego store. Cooper was out for the count so i headed back out to meet up with Chandler and Cash and we watched the fireworks and then headed back for a much better 2nd night's sleep.
The next day we got up and had breakfast with Goofy and the rest of the Disney Characters. We were visited by Chip, Dale, Jasmine, Baloo, Pluto and others. Cooper just ate and ate and ate. We headed back home that afternoon.
We all really enjoyed our first trip to Disneyland and are thankful for our Grammy!
