grabbing his toes at Disneyland

We went to Disneyland on Monday with my brother Matt and his wife Danielle. While I hated the crowds I understand why parents of any age child take their kids to Disneyland. They can ride any ride that doesn't have a height requirement- which is most of the rides. It is truly an amusement park aimed at kids. Adults are there for supervision and to buy food. All of a sudden It's a small world makes sense- it is meant for 3 month olds. Kaden slept through that one but we heard of another three month old who enjoyed it. It also feels like an airconditioned ride- that part is for the hot tired parents. Do not take little kids to the Honey I shrunk the kids show- it is too loud. Kaden didn't like that one. He enjoyed the jungle cruise and the carousel. Disneyland is set up with the parent swap for the big kid's rides. that meant that my bro and his wife waited in line while we waited with Kaden. Then they came out and watched Kaden while we went through the exit sowed our pass and got directly on the ride. Excellent! so we didn't spend all day waiting in line for one ride. It was great. Also they have fast passes- you get one of those and come back later in the day to have max about a 15 minute wait. Even though the park was full we didn't wait in line longer than a half an hour all day. We chose not to wait in any lines that were longer- but we still rode all of the rides that we wanted too. I want to go back for Kaden's b-day in februaury- we should have less crowds then.

Kaden is now grabbing both of his feet. He has gotten his left big toe in his mouth a few times. He thoroughly enjoys that. He is also taking his pacifier in and out of his mouth and entertaining himself that way. On the down side of things he has learned to kind of yell/scream when he wants something. He is getting very good at sounding angry. He is a stubborn little guy. He is starting to reach for things more and more. If it is not within his reach he will grumble at you until you put it there- he seems particularly interested in boxes- his wipes and the box my nursing pads come in. So fun to watch him grow and learn.

Wow Disneyland? That is so cool! I wish we were close and could have enjoyed that day with you all! I wonder if Ian would be up for that kind of trip if Matt would be there too? Hmmm... something to look forward to... maybe plan a trip for Kaden's bday???
