Disneyland!

On the first day Kurt had off we went to Disneyland. A friend of ours gave us a ticket to Disneyland, so we figured we couldn't pass up the chance to go. It was Wes first time at the park. I was very nervous how he would do because I knew it would be crowded (the person at the gate told me they were expecting 82,000 people that day) but he did amazing. It was one of my favorite days ever.

After our tram ride in we went to Small World. At first Wes seemed a little scared (he covers his ears when he's scared) but after a few moments he got very interested in the ride. When we were done and it was time to get off Kurt noticed that no one was in our lane to take our spot so we were able to stay on and ride it again, which was fun because Wes really enjoyed seeing it again.

Wes did great walking around the park, he stuck near us and never ran off. He even used the standing feature on the back of the stroller when he got tired of walking.

After Small World we went to the Buzz Lightyear ride. Wes was really enthralled in the line because of all of the Buzz stuff to look at but was a little overwhelmed by the ride itself.

After lunch we journeyed to Main Street and got a front row seat for the parade. The parade started at 2 (Wes normally goes down to nap at 1). He enjoyed the parade and got particularly excited when he saw Winnie the Pooh, Woody, Buzz and Santa. After the parade Wes fell asleep in his stroller and slept for about an hour. Once he woke up we ventured through Toon Town and then rode the carousel. Our last stop was the train, which was super crowded. We boarded at Main Street and went around the entire park. After that we were able to catch Buzz and Woody in the second round of the parade and then decided to head out.

On our way up to the car Wes noticed this drinking fountain which he was very excited by. He loves drinking out of water fountains so it was so special that they had one at just the right height for him.

On our way home we stopped at Cheesecake Factory and used a gift card that we had gotten in an early Christmas gift exchange. It was a great dinner and a great day.
