Girls Trip

We just got home from our girls trip to Disneyland.  We had a blast!!  The weather was lovely - so nice to wake up to sunshine days in a row. 

We stayed at the Disneyland Hotel, and despite a lot of remodeling, we enjoyed it a lot.  Addy was pretty excited to arrive and see all the Disney themed style.  Keeping a tight hold on her baby Minnie doll.

My favorite Disney touch were these pillows . . .

Highlights of the trip included getting dressed up (in her Belle costume) to see the princesses, meeting Tinkerbell, riding the Matterhorn with Grandma twice, and riding on Pirates over and over again. :)

Grandma got Addy this lovely Rapenzel dress.  Addy was totally in love with wearing it around the park.

I was a little nervous about going while 5 months pregnant but it wasn't bad.  There were some rides I had to avoid, but overall I don't feel like I overdid it.  Now Charlotte can say that she has already been to Disneyland - she'll definitely fit right into the family.  Addy was all about getting baby Charlotte some reminders of the trip.  More on that later.

How pretty is princess Belle?  She even had Belle light up, high heel shoes.

 There were a couple of new rides this time.  We were able to use special resort fast passes to avoid the two hour line and check out the new Little Mermaid ride.  It was very cute.  Addy really enjoyed it.  We did not stand in the 4 hour line for the new updated Star Tours.  (The good news for my Mom and Addy is that although I am a huge Star Wars nerd and totally wanted to check it out, I get very sick on motion simulation rides - so they were totally saved from the monster lines.)

 And of course pool time is as big a hit as park time.  Addy was putting her face in the water and going under - big milestones for this girl.  I see swim lessons again in her near future.

Happy weekend all!!
