Disney with family

Last weekend we headed to California with my Mom, Trent, Callie, and James! We had a great little trip and enjoyed our time with the family that we went with! We left Friday morning and came back late, late Sunday night! On Friday we ate at Chick fil A which is a must in this family (unless your Shana, she is odd) and then we went to Downtown Disney for awhile and then to Newport Beach and ate at the Rockin Baja Lobster, I love that place, its amazing! Saturday we got up super early and headed to the park right when it opened at 8am and we stayed all day till it closed at midnight but by the time we shopped and got done, it was after 12:30! It was a long day and we had such a great time! B was so cute he loves all the rides especially "stinky pirates" and Buzz Lightyear! He would probably just ride those all day if he could! Every ride he rode he would get off with the biggest smile and say "that was soooooo fun, I wanna ride another one" He was so good all day and finally crashed around 9:30 in his stroller talking to Callie! Cayden of course was so good, he is the best baby! He loves Disneyland already too and loves to look at all the stuff on the rides! I love going with family too, it always nice to have everyone with you and to enjoy the happiest place on earth with the people you love! Sunday Kyle and I took the kids in the park and did NOTHING it was so packed we saw Pluto and ate and left because it was to insane! We had such great trip but it went by way to quick, Thanks to my Mom and Trent for all they did! We are ready to go back again to Disneyland :)











This last picture of Cayden he is in the outfit "on Mickey Mouse" he had a blow out at about 9:30 at night and we couldn't find pajamas anywhere, between Kyle and I we went in to about 10 stores from California adventure to Disneyland! It was the same in every store " no we don't sell pjs that little, but this store does" finally I went to the baby care center were the lady who was working went out of her way to help us and had someone bring us that cute outfit ! She was so sweet and helped us so much and could tell how flustered I was! That def made my night! Thank heavens for nice people in this world :)

5 months ❤

Our sweet little guy is 5 months old today
-Happiest little guy ever
-finally getting his dark hair back and we can do mow-hawks again
-talking, laughing, and smiling all the time
-mommy is still his favorite person
-he will hardly ever stand up with help, he is such a chub so he will only do it sometimes
-close to rolling over, hopefully soon
-LOVES his brother, Brysen is finally playing with him all the time and it melts my heart
-sleeping from 8pm to 8am
-He has 2 naps during the day and 1 catnap at night
-He loves his rice cereal and we are starting veggies hopefully next week
-I wish I knew what this chubba weight is we go to the dr in a few weeks
-He is teething, and drooling, and biting everything he can get his little hands on
-still such an easy baby, he only ever gets mad if he is hungry or tired
-we stopped nursing and now he is drinking what I have stocked in the freezer
-He is starting to notice his feet
-He can sit for a few seconds or longer but we are always there to catch him
-Loves all of his toys, he has a frog in his car seat that he is always tugging and pulling on, its his fav
-Loves the TV, this kid always has his head tilted some odd way so he can see the TV no matter where he is, on the couch, laying under his baby einstein, eating, you name it he is trying to figure out where it is crazy kid, I think its all the color that he likes
I still some days can't believe we have 2 kids and that this little guy is here with us, such a sweet joy to have in our lives! We love you Cayden Nicholas ♥

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 :)
