Disneyland 2013.......

So last Friday i took my daughter and her boyfriend to Disneyland for her 20th birthday. That is what she wanted. She is Such A Disney Freak  and a big baby, I also took my 3 year old thinking he would totally dig it. Boy was i wrong. lol
   A week before we go we tell him that he is going to go see Mickey Mouse, Buzz Light Year etc.... and he starts to get excited. Everyday he says "are we going to Disneyland,?let's go mom, let's go nena !" ( that's what he calls his sister) all day and everyday. We explain to him not till Friday. Like a three year old knows time. It's all about right this second. lol
  Anyway, We leave Thursday night get to our hotel, and we walk down to downtown Disney. Which was just a block or so away. It was my first time experiencing Downtown Disney . They have shops, restaurants, live music etc. We went into the Lego Store and saw all these really cool sets, and took pictures. Went into the Disney Store and wow , that was the biggest Disney store i have ever been in. Got some hot chocolate and just enjoyed the atmosphere with my husband and kids. Get back to the hotel and crash out.
  So Friday morning comes and we are headed to Disneyland. So excited and ready for the day. Just need a really big Pepsi and I'm good. lol Gotta get that caffeine jump start.
 We get there and everyone is singing their favorite Disney ride song, Pirates of the Caribbean Preferably, and We get to the trams and the baby starts. No i want to go home. WHAT?????? You have to be kidding me. Not even into the park yet and already. OK he's a little crabby , maybe not awake just yet. This is kinda early for him. lol
Anyway we get the stroller, we get in and we are off. Down main-street. We see Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Goofy etc oh how fun is this. I ask Tommy "do you want to go say hi and take pictures with everyone?" " No i want to go home" WHAT ??????
  We go have something to eat and then hit the rides.
First up , The Jungle Cruise. No line just walk on. Pretty nice i have to say..... We get on the boat and he is in my lap scared. Mind you nothing happens on this ride. You just go on a boat and with about 20 other people and ride. No big deal right. Wrong...
 That's when i decided that the big kids can go and we would meet up with them later.  Well that didn't work really either. All of our phones died and we pretty much stuck together. We rode more rides, hit Toon town, watched Fantasmic and the fireworks over the castle. Finally time to go home.
   Long story short, My daughter had a great day and My Baby .... well let's just say he is not a Disney baby. lol We all had a great day. Lots of walking. I mean lots of walking. My feet and back hurt for a couple days but all in all it was fun. Can i say it was worth all the money we spent.., probably not, but then again you can't put a price on your kid's happiness.
