DL Part 2: Behind the Scenes






Fun time were had at the 'Mad T Part' in California Adventure.

I thought it would be fun to share a few more pictures from Disneyland, especially considering the amount of pictures that were taken.  As great as some of the standard pictures of everyone in front of the castle or with characters are, some of the best pictures are of the candid moments that happen along the way...at least that is where some of the best memories come from.  The picture from Splash Mt. is one of my favorites.  It was Sydney's first ever time going on the ride, and the picture says it all.  She was extremely terrified of the drop...I mean, after all, why would anyone choose to ride a perfectly good log down a hill on a stream of water???  Well, you can see I had fun, but I was actually more concerned with her making it through the ride in once piece.

In other news...Corwin is doing great at eating solid foods.  Obviously he has no teeth yet, but that hasn't stopped him from eating berries, toast, vegetables, and even getting serious with a piece of steak.  Once his teeth do come in, I am fearful for any food item that crosses his path.  It will surely be no match for his ravenous appetite.  He continues to get bigger, more vocal, and developing his hand-eye coordination.

In Sydney news, she continues to do great at everything, especially reading.  At school, they are focusing on learning a particular letter each week using fun activities.  Unfortunately for Sydney, she's known her alphabet forever and has been reading words and sentences, so I'm sure it's not at entertaining for her.  But we're proud of the progress she is making.  I'm sure she'll be reading Shakespeare to us next year!...ha ha!

All in all, everyone is doing great.  Have a great weekend!!!
