Lunch at Ariels' Grotto

Here are the pictures of lunch at Ariel's Grotto.

The Princesses

Disneyland has a princess adventure where you can stand in line for about an hour and a half and meet the princesses. There is an adorable store there that Bailey and her Daddy went to look in while I was in the bathroom. Bailey had to come and get me and show me this dress she had to have. She normally doesn't make a fuss over much, so we knew she really wanted the dress. After batting her eyes at her daddy, we bought her the princess dress. She had to have it on then and stand in line so she could show the princesses her new dress. Near the end of the line she started getting really tired...but made an amazing transformation when she saw the princesses and became our little bell of the ball!

Colby took the day off on Bailey's actual birthday and we had some Disneyland fun. She loves the ladybug teacups. We had to ride them two times in a row. We also had a day of princesses. We had lunch at Ariel's Grotto and got a visit from all of the princesses. It was a lot of fun and Bailey was so enamored with all of the princesses. It was such a great day and so fun to see her little face light up when the princesses came right up to her.

The morning after....she finally wears a hat!!!!

Bailey celebrated her 3rd birthday with a hat themed party. Everyone had to come in a hat! Of course the birthday girl didn't wear a hat at all to her party, but decided the next morning to join in the fun and wear her hat she made at the party. I'm so glad I made two trips to Downtown Disney to get just the right hat for her party!! Although she did wear her hat for the week before her party. This morning when she woke up she said she had so much fun at her "fake birthday" party. I've been telling her that her "real birthday" is Tuesday so she automatically thought that her party was her "fake birthday." Thank you to everyone for joining in on the fun by wearing a hat to the party. Bailey opened up her presents late last night and this morning. She loved all of the gifts and we thank you for making her day so special.

Secret Room Part II

Here is some more video of the unveiling of the secret room.

Bailey's Secret Room

Bailey got an early birthday present today. Colby and I decorated her "secret room" that is in her bedroom. We put carpet in it and some fun stickers. This is a clip of her finding her early birthday present.

Happy Birthday Boomer

Boomer celebrated his 6th birthday on Wednesday. Part of his birthday present was to get up on our bed...his favorite thing in the world besides eating. He did however have to pose for a picture with Raif.

Toddler Talk on boat trip

Bailey and Regan had a fun conversation about how many kids they wanted. This was a spontaneous conversation that we had fun with. Sorry about the sideways thing...still figuring my camera out.

Happy Valentine's Day

Colby and Brenda

We had a wonderful trip out on the boat for Valentine's Day. The Irelands joined us (minus Paige, she was at home so her mommy and daddy had a little break). Colby made a delicious dinner for us as we were anchored at Thumbs Island near the Queen Mary.

Raif Smiling

Raif is not stubborn with his smiles, but they are hard to capture on film.

Too Tired

Raif was having fun, and decided it was time to nap. His sister also loved to sleep with her arms out.
