Putting our Disneyland passes to work this month and took the kids twice! Zach and I took the kids on Friday the 14th around 4pm and stayed until around 10pm that night- we hit Mickey's Toon Town first- we bought Sienna an autograph book and she was so excited to get pictures and signatures from the characters we saw! We got Mickey and Minnie that day =). After Toon Town we did It's a Small World and after that we split up for a little bit so Noah could do some of the bigger rides. Zach took Noah on Matterhorn and Autopia while Sienna and I did the carousel and Pinochio...that second one was NOT a hit with Sisi, she was scared, poor girl! After that we headed over to California Adventure for dinner and Soarin Over California for me and Noah- one of our favorites!!
One week later on Friday, Jan. 21st I decided to take kids myself right after Noah got out of school. The last time I took them on my own they were both much younger- I don't think Sienna was even walking yet! We had SO MUCH FUN and I just loved having that special time with the two of them. They are such a great age right now, I seriously want to freeze them at this age!! With the bigger rides out of the question for this trip we tackled Toon Town and Fantasy Land again- they both wanted to do more the last week and on this trip we had no agenda but those two areas and we took our time! It was so fun watching Noah be so excited for Sienna and telling her about what they could do- and I loved watching him be so excited to do the younger things that day...he wasn't asking about Space Mountain or Big Thunder like he usually does and instead he was getting excited for Mickey and just the magic of Disneyland- it made me realize just how big he was getting but for a piece of that day he was my little baby and I loved it!! In Fantasy Land the Teacups and Dumbo were a big hit!! We meandered through all the houses in Toon Town again and took our time down Main Street on the way out...Noah even watched one of the penny movies in the penny arcade- so old school, haha! I really want to take them more often when I can on my own and explore all the lands- we decided our next stop will be Frontier Land!!
