The Happiest place on Earth just got Happier :)

Kyle and I decided to do Disneyland Passes for each other for Christmas! I can't even begin to tell you how excited I was, so at the end of January we went and got them and spent 3 days at the happiest place on earth! We had such a great time! Friday when we got there, we got our passes and then hung out in the park for a few hours! It was raining so while we were there we walked on pretty much every ride! The first ride B wanted to ride was Pirates, so we did! He thought it was scary but asked to go on it again later! We left and went to the hotel and changed our wet clothes and the headed back to the park and walked on all the rides that we rode the rest of the night! We even got to see the fireworks since it stopped raining for a bit! Saturday we got up bright and early to head to the park all day! It was misting a little in the morning and I prayed it would stop and about 10 mins after being in the park it did, and it was sunny and nice the rest of the day (it was supposed to rain all weekend, so I was sad and so happy when it didn't) We hit up Carsland which was amazing, I felt like we were in the movie! They did such an amazing job! We rode as many rides as we could at both parks! B was so good and loved every second of it! He loved having the characters sign his book and take pictures with them and talk to them to tell them where we were headed to next in Dland, he LOVED buzz astro blaster! Everytime I would go nurse Cayden, Kyle and B would go and ride that! Sunday we went into the park for a few hours and had such a blast and then we headed home! It was such a fun trip! We have never gone just as our own little family, we have always gone with my family or friends! We had such a blast and B asks everyday to go back, the nice thing about having passes is that we totally can! We are actually going back in a few weeks! Cayden was so so so good, he never cried and he let us do whatever and just relaxed and was amazing all 3 days, B was so much fun, I love this age and how fun it is to watch him, he understands and knows now and it makes it that much more fun for us as parents, I am obsessed and love dland anyways but it makes it that much better! We had such an amazing trip and we look forward to many more this year :)
























4 months

I keep wondering how this kid keeps getting a month older, I feel like I blink and bame he is 4 months old! This little guy is still the sweetest, happiest, easy little man around! He got to go to Disneyland for the first time at 4 months old, and he was so easy and so alert and aware of everything going and DIDN'T want to sleep hardly at all in the park, he apparently thought he would miss out if he did! (this post is a little late, he is almost 5 months now! look for that update soon)
At 4 months
-Smiles and laughs, we finally got him to full on laugh instead of just chuckle
-He went swimming for the first time this month
-We started him on rice cereal and he LOVES it, the first time he ate some I couldn't believe how well he did
-He takes 2, 3 hours naps and one cat nap at night
-He sleeps anywhere from 8 pm -8 am, we are trying for 730 bedtime now, he usually only cries out 1 if that for his bink
-He eats 4 times a day and drinks anywhere from 5 to 9oz
-He is such a little chub and I LOVE his chubbiness
-Obsessed with the TV, I always catch his staring at it
-Love his Mickey Mouse we got him in Disneyland, he is always attacking his nose
-He eats rice cereal once a day
-He is getting so close to rolling over, but will move himself around in a circle under his baby Einstein
-the happiest baby ever, I swear he never stops smiling
-He talks SO loud, he needs to be heard over his crazy brother
-He gets so mad and shakes if you don't feed him right on time
-LOVES his food is probably an understatement
-Grabs at everything, pulls his bink out of his mouth
-Loves all of his toys
We sure love this cute little guy, he is such a blessing :)

Christmas time and December Fun

This is my favorite month out of the whole year, I don't know what it is but the world seems to be a more magical and happier place! We had lots of fun and kept busy all month long, we got to see Santa more then once, B would ask us to go to the North Pole to see him! We went to opportunity village with my side of the family, we go every year now! Its so fun to just go walk around and look at everything and the kids sure love it! We also go to the Live Nativity they put on here in Vegas every year and it was very special this year because Cayden was baby Jesus one night! The night he was baby Jesus was also the only night that they had a professional photographer come and take pictures, which ended up in the LDS church news! How awesome is that, it was so neat and I love it! I have always loved the nativity since I was a little girl and looked forward to see it every year, so it was such a blessing and I was so touched they asked to use Cayden, my eyes were not dry that night at all when he laid in that manager and was baby Jesus! One weekend we went to the Bellagio to see how it was decorated for the Holidays and of course it was gorgeous and beautiful! Its amazing what they can do with flowers! We also took all the kids to see Santa! Christmas Eve we spent at my moms, we had dinner and opened a present, pj's of course, and also went to look at Christmas lights, it's family tradition! Christmas morning we had everyone over to our house and opened presents and made breakfast! B was so cute he would open each gift and say "for meeeee" it was the cutest thing ever, Cayden of course slept threw it,which was to be expected! We had such a great month and I am already waiting for it to be this time of year again! I hope everyone else enjoyed the Holiday season as much as we did :) Oh and the last picture is our Elf on a shelf Dash, he joined our family this year to watch the kids and report to Santa! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all! We sure love all of you!
