We went on our first big family vacation and had a wonderful time in sunny California!! Grandpa came with us and survived 7 nights and 8 days, as well as 2 flights, with us and our three kiddos! The highlight of our trip was Legoland. Colton was in heaven! It was amazing to see all the things that were created out of legos. Colton's favorite was the lego Darth Vader and Mia's favorite was the lego Dora and Boots. We had such a terrific time and left with a much greater love for legos (if that's even possible)!!
We also spent several days at Disneyland. The kids had a great time there, too. Mia loved seeing all the Princesses and Colton loved all the rides. Caden was such a great baby the whole time. I carried him in the sling most of the time and he took great naps in the stroller.
Some things we learned on our trip:
- Even with sunscreen, babies can get sunburned!
- Colton is our little thrill seeker...loves those roller coasters!
- Mia is *Miss Mia* no matter where we go...sassy, sassy, sassy!
- If you go to Disneyland with a single rental car key in your pant pocket and ride lots of rides, it WILL get lost (Kyle will never live this down!!).
- Croup follows us wherever we go (Our trip ended with Caden in the ER in Anaheim - we flew back to Austin 3 breathing treatments and 1 steroid shot later!!).
- We never want to fly with 8 suitcases, 5 carry on's, 2 car seats, and 1 stroller again!!! We have got to learn to condense!!
All in all, we had a wonderful vacation and are already thinking about where we'll go next year!
