DISNEYLAND

Disneyland was a blast! Brody and Brooklyn were tall enough for all the rides they were brave enough to do....well, Brody knows no fear, but he went on all the rides that mommy would let him do! :)  We used up all 5 days of our passes, made it into the princess breakfast, had enough wipes on hand to clean Elle up after her blowouts, went on pretty much every ride we wanted (pirates and space mountain twice), only backed out of one ride (the haunted house OBVIOUSLY in mommy's opinion),  made it through the submarine ride without having any panic attacks, had great weather, somehow kept our kids from the souvenir shops, and did it all without any major melt downs.  THAT IS A MIRACLE.  We did have one casualty, Bob (Tom's dad) was lost to motion sickness after Space Mountain on the last day.  Our kids were tattooed with our cell phone numbers, but they went unused thankfully.  And after all is said and done, I would do it again in two years, no question.  

FIRST NIGHT AT DISNEY

MOMMY WAITED IN LINE FOR TIGGER WHILE DADDY AND BRODY WERE ON SPLASH MOUNTAIN! (BROOKLYN AND I WERE BRAVE ENOUGH TO DO IT FIRST!)

I AM TOTALLY JUST AS EXCITED AS BROOKLYN.  I LOVE DISNEYLAND!

PRINCESS BROOKLYN

BRODY IS TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL

Brody and Brooklyn did the tower of terror!!!  Brooklyn said she came off her seat all the way :)
Elle took two 20 minute naps a day in her stroller.  She hates to miss a party....I wonder who she gets that from?!
Elle likes riding on the BOB...both of them!!!!! (We just invested in an awesome double off-road BOB stroller, although there is nothing like the original :)

Tom used this ride to get out all of his aggression.  Psycho x-lumber salesman on the loose!
