BEDA Day 4: Better Late Than Never

Disney was a blast! It was super hot in Anaheim but we managed to get by courtesy of the likes of Mickey, Bugslife rides and pure Disney magic. BEDA and VEDA were harmed in the process but I will be playing catch up. Besides its better late than never.:

BEDA Day 3: Disney Night Display

After a very long day at Disney I think this post will have to be it. Good night!!!

BEDA Day 2: Disney Bound

Packing up the car and heading out. Baby Z has a tight hold on her Baby Pooh Bear.

Today we left early on in the day for DisneyLand. It is Baby Z's first time and I was quite excited to be on our way to take her. It was also her first real long road trip as we had an almost 8 hour drive including stops.

Making a pit stop so she could stretch her legs a bit! She loved it! She did surprisingly well in the car. We brought her favorite stuffed animals, books and snacks. That in combination with pit stops and naps kept her quite happy and thus me and daddy quite sane.

We reached our hotel! Squint your eyes and you can see the Matterhorn in the background. 

End of a long traveling day. Looking forward to taking Baby Z into Disneyland tomorrow after getting some Z's tonight.

Our Weekend in Photos...

I wasn't able to blog this past weekend but captured a few snapshots of how we spent our Saturday and Sunday. Since weekends are currently the only 2 full days I have with Baby Z I like getting out of the house with her to get some fresh air together. On Saturday her Uncle brought her the above Mickey and Minnie dolls from a local Disney store. She squealed and reached our her hands when she saw them.

We visited a local farmers market to check out the produce and because it was such a lovely sunny day. Farmers markets are great ways to get your little ones outdoors when you live in more urban areas and get some healthy grocery shopping done at the same time.

Excuse the quality of this picture (blurry hand) but Baby Z was grabbing quickly at items on the shelves when we made a pit stop at Buy Buy Baby after the Farmers Market. Here she was reaching for the sippy cups. I went to purchase some Evenflo size 3 bottle nipples and a Tommy Tippy sippy cup but sadly they didn't carry either item. We did end up with organic baby food though.

Reading books is a priority for our bedtime routine. Now that she is older (we have been doing this since she was practically a newborn) its fun to watch her take more and more interest in the books. She really is starting to pay attention when we read to her and interact with some of the pictures.

Even though its already almost the weekend again, I hope you had a good 'last' weekend. I'm off to bed now. Up bright and early tomorrow for the final work day of the week. Yay!
