I don't know who was more excited to go to Disneyland - Tyler, Tyson, or me! Poor Lydia got too much sun at the beach the day before and Tyson and I were up all night comforting her and, in Tyson's case, driving around the city looking for a pharmacy. But, in the wee hours of the morning, her fever broke, we got a few hours of sleep, and woke up rarin' to go!
This is my favorite picture. I was so worried about Lydia going all day without her naps, but here she is after she learned how to sleep in the stroller! What a cutie.
It was fun to have so many family members be able to come for Tyler and Lydia's 1st Disneyland experience. Besides our little family, we had my Mom and Dad, Justin, Michelle, Levi, and Uncle Matthew.
Lydia was a trooper! We even stopped and stayed for the fireworks as we were heading for the gate to go home because the kids were doing so well.
Some things we learned:
-Save time for shopping on Main Street. It's so much fun!
-There is a Baby Center off of Main Street to nurse privately and change diapers on a real changing table.
-Go, if possible during off season and stay for two days so we can spread rides out (and repeat favorites).
-Even though we were staying at J&M's home in Oceanside, we definitely liked having a hotel close by after a full day of Disneyland.
-The Tiki Room show is a nice sit-down-but-still-be-entertained break. And the Dole pineapple ice cream outside is the best (though the line for it was longer than some of the ride lines)!

Looks like it was a really fun day! :)
So fun! I LOVE Disneyland. Poor Lydia with her sunburn.... that CA sun can be bad news for little babies. Lynnea got a really bad sunburn when we were in CA last summer too. :( Thanks for sharing your fun tips for Disneyland. Hopefully, we will get to use them one of these years. :)
