What a Weekend

Friday night Izak and I loaded up the girls and headed down south. Our ultimate destination: Disney Land!

It was a rocky drive at first. And I went as prepared as I could be. We finally settled into a groove only stopping once before the grapevine. We made it to the hotel very tired. We just wanted to fall into bed, but Beatrice would not have it. She sort of freaked out a bit. She was crying and saying that she wanted to go home! She's slept in hotels before but of course she doesn't remember. She finally fell asleep while I sang the opening song from Beauty and the Beast.

Saturday we got dressed headed down stairs for breakfast and then hopped in the car and drove to Disney. I had wanted to get there right when the park opened, but since we were only getting tickets for one park, one day I figured we'd still be waiting in line and therefore we wouldn't get in right away anyway.. despite a minor setback waiting to get on the tram things went smoothly. We got our tickets, got into the park and headed to Small World. Bea and Millie totally loved it. Both girls were just looking everywhere. I tried to get some pictures, which I will post later. Beatrice wanted to go again, but I thought we should try to get on the tea cups first. On the way to the teacups we walked through Sleeping Beauty's castle and saw Snow White's well. We even got to see a little show. It was a fast trip to Disney but Beatrice loved it! I can't wait to take her back and really spend some more time riding rides and just walking around and seeing stuff. Our new jogging stroller worked out fairly well. Millie was good, she even fell asleep for about an hour inside the park.

Stacey came up to visit and watch the girls that evening because Izak and I were going to our first Dodger game! It was so much fun! The Dodgers won. Izak and I got a Dodger dog and a Super Dodger dog.. I guess he grabbed the wrong one and I ended up eating the Super Dodger dog... it was delicious!

Sunday we slept in, got breakfast at the hotel and then headed to Old Baby for some quick shopping before we all had to head out. It was a lot of fun and now I am super tired!

Today Beatrice is wearing big girl underwear at school. We're going to get her potty trained starting this week. AND she's going to start sleeping in her room again... it's gonna be a long week for me. :( And I'll be running in a 5K on Saturday!? What am I thinking?
