Our First Trip to Disneyland!

I had meant to post this last weekend, but ended up with a surprise on my hands. Baby Iain decided he wanted to try and make his entrance in to the world 2 months early. On Saturday I went in to labor, and so that night drove myself to the hospital to get checked out. I was contracting every 4 minutes or so, so they gave me some meds. At 3am it seemed like it was slowing down and I'd get to go home. However at 7am the nurses rushed in to my room and told me I was up to 2 minutes apart and I had to be admitted ASAP. So I was rushed out of my triage room and in to labor and delivery and hooked up to the serious drugs to stop my labor. Finally on Monday afternoon the contractions stopped, and that night they let me go home.


So needless to say, I'm a little behind on this!

Last week we took Conner to Disneyland for the first time ever. At first he wasn't sure what to make of it, as it seemed pretty overwhelming.


By far his favorite ride was Dumbo. We rode it 3 times and went for a 4th, but just as we got to the line they closed it due to the firework show getting ready.


We thought he'd love the Small World ride, but he actually screamed the entire time through it. Who knew the Small World ride took that long to complete.


Other faves were the carousel ride and Casey Jr. train ride. At the end we stayed for the Christmas parade and the firework show. The fireworks scared him a bit, but it was pretty loud and overwhelming.

One of the many times on the Dumbo ride.

In one of the Toontown cars. We couldn't pass one without getting in!

And riding the horses on the carousel. Sorry about the blur, the lighting was sucky!
