We're going to Disneyland!!!

I know- you're thinking "Ummmm... isn't Ian going to be unemployed soon?" Yes he is, and we are trying to balance being really responsible and taking advantage of some time off. So... we decided to go to Disneyland for a week. I am worried that we might regret going, but my wise friend Leanne pointed out that I might regret it in March if Ian doesn't have another job, but either way I won't regret it ten years from now when I think back on the trip and all of the memories we made as a family.

So we are taking off. Amelia and Emery have not been to the Happiest Place on Earth yet, so we thought it'd be a good way to spend quality time together and get out of the heat for awhile. Amelia is so excited she can't stand it and has been asking us, "when are we going? When, when when." So, in true "us" fashion, we made a countdown calendar. Each day she gets to put a foot on as we make our way to Disneyland. She loves counting the days and I love not having to explain to a four year old the time/space continum :) Here's a pic of A with her calendar.

You are so creative with parenting ideas. I still laugh at the alarm clock rule with Amelia. Thanks for giving me such good ideas for me to steal when Kalyn gets older.
