Fun Stuff...

DJ at 10 weeks, then Callie at 10 weeks! Do they look like they are related or what!!??
...then a few more shots of Callie smiling... she is a happy baby! She wakes up smiling every morning... even before eating! Here she is in the swing... she is not a huge fan of the swing, but was sort of enjoying it this time!
Last, BATH TIME for my two babies!

To the POOL!

We were the only people at the pool today, probably because the water is still cold or maybe because it is a Friday and school hasn't gotten out yet! ...or maybe because we are having thunderstorm and tornado warnings!!?? Well, we were hot and wanted to go, so we did. As long as there is no lightening we are fine! DJ LOVED swimming for his first time this year! He didn't care about the cold water! Callie slept in her car seat for most of the time... then screamed when I put her toes in... oh she better like the water!! :) Can't wait for it to warm up! :)

Day Two at Disneyland










































We spent day two at California Adventure and LOVED IT! California Adventure seems to be a lot more fun these days than I remember it being before. They are doing a lot of construction there, building a "Cars" area that should be really neat! DJ got to see Sully from Montser's Inc... he was hesitant to look at Sully for the picture, but watches that movie over and over! We also went on the Monsters Inc ride which he loved! We then saw Handy Manny but the line to get a picture with him was too long. So I took one of DJ & Don behind Handy Manny hehe! At the front where the new Cars area will be, they had Mater and Lightening McQueen... of course DJ LOVED to see them! We then spent a good amount of time in Bugs Land where we went on the caterpillar train ride, the bumper cars and flying rice box cars... then one picture of Callie and I on that ride... PROOF that we were there too. :) That night we saw the new Colors water and light show... that was really neat! We had a blast with my parents, my sister Merrily and her family there too. Even though DJ seemed a little apprehensive at times and wanting to stay in the stroller a lot (totally out of character for him since he's a runner!) he has said many times since we've been home that he wants to go on an airplane... we ask him where does he want the airplane to take him... and he says, "the beach and Disneyland" I think he has his priorities straight! :) Can't wait to go back!

Callie and DJ's 1st Trip to DISNEYLAND!

Overall... our first day at Disneyland was fun even though it ended out in the pits. DJ enjoyed the rides and Toon Town... but just after 2 hours at the happiest place on Earth, I thought something wasn't right when DJ fell asleep in the stroller! He has NEVER done that but maybe once when he was much younger. We had to wake him up for the Nemo ride. He didn't want to shoot the gun on the Buzz Light Year ride!!?? Then he got super cold & was shivering, so we put Callie's blanket on him... it was about 80 degrees! I was nervous! We cut our day short and went back to our hotel... DJ got worse by the minute. His temperature climbed up to 103.3. Don went out to get dinner and medicine... we worried about him as we changed him out of one sweaty shirt after the other through the night, wondering if it was heat stroke or just a bug..?? I'm thinking it was a bug since it wasn't that hot outside! The next day when DJ was up and about... driving us nuts by getting into everything, we headed back to Disneyland!

Hotel Fun in LA

We had one day to hang out in Anaheim before going to Disneyland... so we walked around Anaheim Gardens and ate yummy food! Callie rode in the front pack on me for most of that time... DJ got tired of walking, Don got tired of carrying DJ... so DJ rode in Callie's carseat/stroller... LOL
DJ took several pictures of himself... here is just one.
Here is Callie Girl... and DJ getting ready to go for a swim... Don and DJ had fun in the hotel pool!

Mother's Day in Morro Bay California!

It had been several years since Don had seen his Grandma Dorothy. DJ, Callie and I had never met her, so we planned a trip to Morro Bay, California to go meet her! Our trip happened to fall on Mothers Day Weekend, so a lot of family came! Grandma Judy, Lee, Uncle Jimmy and Auntie Janie came from Oregon, Don's Aunts and cousins came from Northern California, and Don's uncle came from Arizona! Our first night there, we ate dinner at this super yummy seafood restaurant right overlooking the ocean. Beautiful! :) Grandma Judy took DJ to see the aquarium.
We played with family at the beach overlooking Morro Rock. DJ loved running around in Grandma Dorothy's backyard... and there was so much yummy food!
Here are a few pictures of the family... one with the whole clan. One with Don, DJ, Callie, Grandma Judy and Great Grandma Dorothy. Last but not least, Great Grandma Dorothy with DJ and Callie!
