California Vacation Part 3: Disneyland!

Disneyland! The great thing about going to California in September is the crowds are not so crazy....on the beach, shopping, or Disneyland. I think we went on a Tuesday. The weather was perfect! 80 degrees! There were actually a lot of people, but the lines were pretty quick to go through, which is a must with a rambunctious 13 month old! We started by loading up on sunscreen and buying Owen the coolest pair of gloves ever...Mickey Gloves. He thought he was pretty cool. Steve and I took turns riding the big rides with Owen, YAY, he can ride pretty much all of them! Miles spent a lot of time in his stroller when not in line or on a ride. I felt bad, and we would let him wonder around here and there, but he was so mobile and not afraid of anything, so this guy had to be contained. Owen went on Splash Mountain and loved it...they got soaked. Owen's favorite ride was Buzz Lightyear. Miles favorite part of the day was the very end...he was cranky and tired, but when the parade started, he was going NUTS! His hands were waving all over and he was so excited. We managed to have both boys fall asleep at the same time in the stroller, that made for a peaceful little break. We did a little shopping and a had a snack...the chile and lime corn on the cob was something I'd really been wanting to try. Sadly, it disappointed. I will make my own and bet its 100xs better. I think around 4:00 I was thinking, man, this day has flown, and also, man, I am exhausted. Good news for us, in September, Disney closes at 8:00.
