TJ's Disney Day!

We didn't make it to Disneyland on Tj's birthday last year since we didn't yet have annual passes. So he was still due a "Grandma, Angela, & Emma" day. Since today was a furlough day at Cal State, we decided to head out to the happiest place on earth. We had so much fun with the little ones there! No big roller coasters or scary rides today, but it was just a fun, slow paced, giggle-filled day. Each kid only had one meltdown, which is not bad for a 12 hour day with 2 year olds! Funny enough, they were each triggered by similar situations. Emma lost it when I had the nerve to lift her onto the tram to get to the park instead of letting her climb up the stairs. Sorry kid, I was trying to load both of you, help Grandma, and get 2 strollers quickly on board! Then, later in the day, Grandma made the same mistake and lifted TJ into his stroller instead of letting him climb in. Too funny. I guess I should have learned from the first time! Anyway, other than this, the kids were REALLY well behaved. One of the best things is that Emma is now completely potty trained and TJ is almost there too, so I did not have to change a single diaper all day! Woot-woot! They really are good kids, just happy to ride along, snacking on tangerines, string cheese, fruit snacks, crackers, and apple juice boxes. They love the rides and the shows and dance along to all the music. They each even took a nap at the same time, while we watched the Mr. Lincoln show, which Grandma was SOOOO happy to see back at Disneyland. All in all, it was a great day!


Grandma and her 2 little monsters, getting ready to head into the Monster's Inc ride.


Emma on It's A Small World. She loves this ride! Just bounces in her seat and sings along. So cute!


TJ seems to be asking, "Are you telling me stories again, Grandma?"


My serious girl on the carousel...


TJ & Emma always like the "Ponies." Emma just chooses not to overtly express her joy! Lol.


Pickle time! The kids LOVE the fact that grandma always gets us fresh pickles at Disneyland. They are huge and so cold and crisp. Best pickles around.


TJ, Jasmine, and Aladdin. Emma will NOT pose with characters. She does love Jasmine though, so we were able to get a high-5 out of her here, but I couldn't get the camera loaded quickly enough to capture it on film.


Awww... See? They really do love each other. Such sweet little ones, when they want to be...
