I can't believe she is 3!

I know it was a couple of weeks ago, but Chloe turned 3! It's amazing to see the little girl she is turning in to! We went to IHOP for Birthday Breakfast, then headed to the mall and rode the Merry Go Round since we only got to do that once at Disneyland! Plus we had yummy cakes a couple of times.

She got to order whatever she wanted!

I would recommend the double blueberry pancakes!

YUM!!!





Birthday Ice Cream
This cake was eaten in California...after Chloe went to sleep!

I made this cake for her...the day after her birthday! She didn't know the difference! Poor kid, I don't think she ever was sung to!
Happy Birthday, Love Bug! It was an awesome day! Know how much you are loved!

San Diego Zoo

Saturday we went to the San Diego Zoo. From a nursing mother's perspective, this was the worst place we went. There was no place for me to feed Adi, so we had to go to the car...except the old guy at the exit told me no one would mind if I just sat down somewhere and fed her. Thanks, but no thanks!

It's a good thing our siblings rented strollers so Chloe had a place to ride!

Panda!

Silly Seals! (Trust me, those things weren't made for adults!)




Cousins!

Polar Bear!

Riding the Sky Ride!





A beautiful ending to our trip to the the Zoo!

Legoland!

The rides here are mostly for kids, but the displays were amazing! I can't believe the things people can make with Legos! We didn't get any pictures of it, but there was this crazy Star Wars section! All of these different scenes from Star Wars were depicted with Legos!

The Bodens and the Volvo family!

Yes, those are Legos!




Oh Boys!


Riding in the helicopters!


The airplanes

Jeff hopes to be like this guy someday!



It was very difficult to get both girls to look at the same time. This is the best we could do!

Matching wands from Nana!

Science Rocks!

Thursday was spent at the Science Museum and a failed attempt at going to Knott's Berry Farm...sad!

The kids' favorite part was blowing the beach ball in the air.

It was Jeff's favorite thing too!

Even Madeline had a good time!


Poor Adi had to spend most of her time in this stroller. She got sick of it pretty fast!



DISNEYLAND!!!

Tuesday and Wednesday were spent at the happiest place in the world...DISNEYLAND!!!

Chloe absolutely LOVED getting to know her cousins from Virginia!


Loving It's A Small World! She still talks about it!


Between baby feedings and it being THE busiest time of year at Disneyland, I was able to go on one ride!

Have you ever heard of Club 33? Walt Disney kept two apartments in Disneyland. The one by Pirates has been turned into a super nice restaurant that you can only get into if you are part of the exclusive club! We had hook ups! This is the "secret" entrance! Hands down, the best Filet Mignon I have EVER had!
This is the boy's bathroom in Club 33! Jeff liked the pull down flushy guy! Funny, because I took a picture of the girls toilets because they were actually thrones! Sorry, no picture here!

Oh, I guess I went on this ride too!

Star Tours!





Day 2: I only went on this ride and Jeff only went on the train! It was ridiculous how many people were there!


Hats from Nana!



We did stand in line for an hour to meet three princesses! Correction, Jeff and Chloe stood in line that long. I got to go feed the baby and then cut in line when they got to the front! SUCKAS!


A lady was really impressed with Jeff's skills!


We were just about to get on It's A Small World when it broke down. At least they turned the lights on for us!

So tired! You should have heard her snoring!

The adults (minus me) went back to Disneyland and left the sleeping kids with Nana and Papa!

Silly Dallin!
