Disneyland-Cousin Edition!

This weekend, Ginny went and spent a day at Disneyland with her cousins Noah and Micah (who are 2 and 1 year older than her, respectively). She had such a blast!



She got to ride all by herself on Flick's Flyers!!! (ok, ok, Mommy and Daddy were in the same car as her...but she did have a bench all to herself). As you can see, she loved it!










Here we are, hanging out with Micah and Lauren on a bench made out of popsicle sticks!!!!












All 3 kids were so jazzed to ride the big Choo-Choo (Ginny's face isn't quite showing it here, but trust me, she was jazzed).











Here they are, waving to all of their adoring fans who saw them off at the station :)












Partners in crime...had to make them all stand against the fence while the dads put the strollers back together after the train ride, then it was off to Small World.










They all loved playing in Goofy's backyard at Toontown. Did you know that Goofy has a slide in his backyard?











Then, we went on Storybook land, where we got to ride in the front of the boat! That means that Ginny and Micah got to sit on the top, not in some measly old seat like the rest of us...uh oh! What does Ginny see? We're about to be swallowed by Monstro!!









Wow! Everything is so tiny here!














Here's Ginny next to shades..., oh, I mean, Noah.


























Then, as if our day couldn't get any better, we got to ride in the every back of the monorail, all by ourselves. (Or is it the front....?)












It was too cool! It was a little bit of a bumpy ride in the back, and Ginny fell asleep before we could return to Tomorrowland (it is a long ride to get from tomorrow back to today back to tomorrow...)








We rounded out the day with a trip to see Pooh and his pots of honey. We went on so many other rides, but lucky for you, we didn't take pictures of all of them ;)

Thanks Noah and Micah, for such a fun day!

Ginny's Hospital Visit

For those of you who haven't heard, Ginny got pretty sick earlier this month, and we ended up in the Emergency Room (twice!). The people at Children's Hospital were wonderful to her, and since it was such a momentous occasion, we decided to document it with some pics.



They had to sedate her at one point to do some tests, so she got all hooked up to the machines to monitor her heart rate, etc. We didn't get a photo op with all of the wires attached to her, but here is the aftermath...what a sad face!















She even had a brace on where they set up her IV line. She was a tough sport that day!













She cheered up a bit once she was able to drink some Pedialyte and read some of her favorite books (after the first emergency room trip, we had a hospital bag packed for her...we came prepared!).















A big thank you to everyone at Children's who helped take care of Ginny!
