disneyland

waiting in line for splash mountain!! bryce and mommy got so soaked



The kids had so much fun at disneyland this year. Bryce was just barely tall enough for the rides but to my surprise he was pretty hesitant to ride any of them. He did ride them but everytime we got off he would say " I dont really like that one, I dont want to go on it again" but Bailee is jsut the opposite and loves all of them and wanted to ride them over and over again. Anyone that know her, knows shes not too much of a risk taker but she definately loves disneyland(minus the characters).

We did get stranded once while we were in california and it was horrible. The weather was 100 degrees and our car broke down on the freeway the day after we got there so we pulled off the exit and poor Mike had to push the suburban a good 1/4 mile to park it. we eventually got it towed to pepboys and 800 dollars later and 4 hrs we were back to driving in crazy california. It definately wasnt the best day because we did a lot of walking and pushing bryce and bailee in one single stroller which can get pretty heavy. All in all it was a very fun, productive, relaxing trip.

We had soo much fun on our California trip last weekend. It was actually really nice not to have Lincoln to feed and change and naps. I missed him sooo much though it was killing me inside. Luckily when my mom had him she would send me pics of him on my phone and that definatley was so nice to get to see. This is on the Pier at newport! It was soo pretty.

Bailee took this picture of us and I think she did a really good job.

we got to ride the farris wheel at newport. The kids loved it. It was just a little teaser to what was to come for disneyland the next day.

Bailees cast

Well... as most of you know now bailee didnt actually break her foot. I took her to the doctor and the exray tech said it was broken so the next day I took her to the orthopedic guy and they looked at the exrays and said they couldnt see anything. In the mean time Bailee couldnt walk on her foot and she was agonizing in pain(especially since Im this best mom in the world to make her walk on it the 24 hours previously)so the doctor said they would cast it no matter what so they did and she was not a happy camper for a while.

The crutches were definately one of the hardest things to force your child to use. I can get her to eat veggies and I can pick out clothes or make her do her homework but to actually force someone to use crutches is pretty impossible! It was a pretty fun week to say the least. About half way through the week she was able to move her toes and could touch her foot inside the cast without pain so the friday of our california trip we took her to get it off. She was totally fine and could walk across the room so the doctor felt fine with that and we had a blast in California.

church outfit

I am soo bummed I haven't taken this cute little church outfit out earlier. Lincoln has gotten so big so fast that I thought I still had some time but he might only wear it a couple of times and thats it but he looks so dang cute I had to show everyone.
