Day 3 - Disneyland & California Adventures

On the 3rd & last day, we split our time between the two parks trying to get everything in that we wanted to do.  We started off in Disneyland because I knew we HAD to go see the princesses!  On our way in we saw on - Belle!

Here's a cute shot with Grandma & Grandpa & all of the grandkids!

And we made it to the princesses... we were lucky enough to see Aurora, ARIEL & Cinderella!  I may have shed a few tears watching Alexa meet Ariel.  She is the favorite & she's my favorite as well.  So magical!

We, of course, also had to catch Pirates of the Caribean!

Here are some other things we did... Hil & I on Splash Mountain, seeing Woody, the Pixar Parade and... the picture of all pictures... my mother eating a hot dog.  They were GOOD!  (Don't kill me mom!)

Also on our 3rd day, my cousin Victoria came with us.  The kids LOVED her.  Especially Nathan - he was quite enamored.  She is pretty cute! :)

We stayed late that night for the light show over the water.  It was AMAZING but we were so exhausted!  The kids fell asleep & my feet hurt so bad I had to sit for some of it.  It was truly breathtaking though.  The used a mist of water as a screen to show scenes from Disney movies, there was music, fire... it was awesome.

Disneyland truly is magical & the happiest place on earth!  It was such a fun 3 days filled with so many happy memories.  What made it even better was being with the whole family.  We are so grateful for Grandma & Grandpa for this wonderful gift!

The kids still ask regularly to go back... I hope we can... SOON!

I love the matching shirts! And I'm jealous they were able to meet the princesses. When we went in March I begged my husband to stand in line .... it was a no go hahaha

Nathan McKay Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:37 a.m., weighs 5 lbs. 8.5 oz, & is 20 in. long Alexa Dawn Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:38 a.m., weighs 4 lbs. 5.5 oz, & is 1 6.75 in. long We are so excited that they are finally here! The C-Section went very well & Alisha is recovering well, with the help of pain meds! Nathan needs quite a bit of help with breathing but is improving. We’re told that he may get his ventilator tube out today & they would help him breathe using a C-pap. He breathes ok on his own so he mostly now just needs some pressure to remind him to breathe. He is still in the highest level of the NICU but is doing well. He’ll be in there for at least a few days after we get to go home. Alexa is tiny but doing extremely well. Alisha was able to hold her while still in the OR before she needed some oxygen help. She only had to stay on the oxygen until 11 a.m. and is still in the lower level NICU. She should get to move to the normal nursery tomorrow m...

37 Weeks 2 Days

It's almost the end! I saw Dr. Adam last Thursday and I'm starting to spill protein and swell a little. But my BP is good! So we'll see what happens when I see her this Thursday. We may have to deliver early! I have mixed feelings about that because I really wanted to make it to 39 weeks, and my parents can't come until the 14th. But Sam is worried about my kidneys. So we'll see. Baby girl was 6.5 lbs last week. Even if she comes this week, she'll probably be about 7 lbs! Me on the other hand... I've gained 40 lbs! I have 5 lbs to go to be where I was with my other deliveries. Let's see if I get there! :)
