Happy Birthday Chandra!

This is how we walked around Disneyland for two days! It was awsome. Austin is under there somewhere. He didn't mind.
This is how mommy and Ethan walked around Disneyland for two days.
Ethan loves horses.
At Chandra's Happy Birthday party in the Pirate ride restaurante.
Ethan loved his hat and eating in the pirate ride rather then riding the pirate ride. He was not a big fan of pirates this time. He was a little frightened of the dark.
This was one of Ethan's favorite rides. It is from "Bugs Life". The Caterpillar goes through the park and "eats" his way through food. When you go into the food it smells like what you are eating (watermelon, animal cookies, candy etc...) FYI not a good ride when you are hungry! We went on this over and over and over. He LOVED it!
Also on the new Buzz ride. Keep reading to find out about it's awsomeness!
This was the second day so we had learned how to do Disneyland in the rain with two small children. It takes a trip to Target and Walmart on the way. You need a child sized poncho, an adult poncho, a bubble umbrella, a cars umbrella and at least one other umbrella and a large vinyal tablecloth to cover the stroller. It turns out the cute custom made stroller covers are not available in any CA store due to the small amount of rainy days they have there, but the tablecloth worked.
Look closely and you can see Ethan's capri's/Austin's pants. He looked a little silly but you do what you can when both boys poop out. He looked silly but I love him.
This is at like noon when both boys pooped out of their outfits. Luckily I had packed Austin an extra outfit and jammies so we had both boys clothed well sort of.
Cool!
This was not posed. Ethan was looking at Mater and then just stuck his head right in there. Luckily Grandma Kathy was right on top of things and had the camera ready to snap this awsome shot.
Just before sticking his head in. He was sure they were real.
So sweet. I LOVE this kid.
Total amazment!
It was so uncrowded that we had to wait in line at the car ride until they had enough people to get all the cars around so we could unload at the end. So unheard of for this ride. (It is usually hours to ride, even with the fast pass)
Ethan loved this ride, especially because I let him drive.
This was on the cool Toy Story ride. It was AWSOME! It was a 3d shot the target game! It was just too cool to describe.
Again AWSOME!!!
Austin just stared at te great big red car. He wasn't sure what to think.
Mater was also cool.
Thanks Chandra and Nate for all your help with the boys! They LOVE you guys!
Happy B-Day Chandra!

First day at Disneyland!

Ethan was screaming because he did NOT want to get in the stroller. After a few minutes he started to throw up everywhere. I was so mad that he had done it on purpose.He felt so bad and quickly started helping me clean up. Well I guess it was a great way to break in our new stroller, which still has a stain. This incidence began a bad habit and Ethan was often "spilling" during our vacation. After a 5 weeks of cleaning up throw up I took him to the Doctor who put him on Prevacid to help him stop reflexing and let his esophagus heal. Poor Ethan.
Playing on the Piano in Mickey's House.
Mickey's Chair.
Helping Mickey make a movie.
MICKEY MOUSE!!!!
Playing on all the toys in toon town.
We didn't tell Ethan to pose for this picture, we just turned around and he was helping the broom carry water.
Dizzy after our ride on the rodger rabbit ride.
They have redecorated and updated It's a Small World. They added disney characters like Nemo, Peter Pan, Aladdin, Alice and others. It is so cute and Ethan loved picking out te characters he knew.
What?
Ethan loves uncle "Nt" Thanks Nate for giving Ethan some much needed male attention.
Uncle Nate keeping Ethan dry.
Peter Pan again.
Playing dress up in the Mad Hatter store.
Riding on Snow White to get out of the rain. Ethan wasn't sure about this ride it was kind of dark and spooky.
So happy!
Cold and wet, but its Disneyland so you can't leave and you must keep on smiling!

This is my favorite smile that Ethan does. It is just pure joy!
On an indoor ride, it doesn't matter which one, its dry.
Where is Ethan?
Ethan loves "l-nuts" he was so excited to point it out to everyone.
I introduced Ethan to Toy Story right before we left for CA so he would recognize the characters. He was so excited to see the characters.
Ethan hadn't taken a nap yet and it was like 6. Poor tired boy!
Isn't he the cutest Stitch you have ever seen?
Who knew it rains a lot at Disneyland! We were very unprepared the first day.
Hoping his snacks stay dry.
Austin loved to be in the front pack he kept warm and dry.
Waiting in line for the Jungle ride. Ethan was sure it was all real and he loved all the animals.
Both the boys LOVED the Tiki room. We watched the show probably 5-6 times. It didn't hurt that it was warm and dry in there as well.
He loved everything! This was his face for three days.
Peter Pan was a big hit with Ethan. Austin was busy sucking is thumb (his newest trick).
Ethan loved the Nemo ride. Luckily the line was pretty short and we got to ride it a lot!
Austin loved it too. His eyes were huge!
WOW!
Ethan wanted to make sure mom was seeing everything. He is such a sweetie!
To infinity and beyond! On the Buzz Lightyear ride. So much fun!

Dancing to the music!
