Staying in the City is Messing with My Brain

Its been a really hard week. We’ve been in a city at an RV Park, its been raining, and we’ve been desperately trying to convince Cara she wants to be potty trained. All three have just really drained me in ways I didn’t expect. This week has also made me feel…normal. Which is weird, I…

    Dude, I am ALL about waiting until they are ready, on that potty training business. Diapers are just so much easier than trying to get a kid to do what they don’t feel ready for. It took 3 tries with Grace before she was really ready, and I easily gave up the first 2 times because that is one battle I hate facing. Good on ya for sticking with her for this long Jess! And it’s ok to feel like a normal, mean mommy, we all feel that, probably more often than we admit. 🙂 I LOVE San Diego! Glad you guys had fun! ReplyCancel

      Thanks Mica! I’m a slow learner when it comes to potty training. 🙂 Oh well. We will get there eventually. And yes, San Diego is one of my favorite cities!ReplyCancel

To Infinity and Beyond! Cuteness Overload with Cara & Buzz Lightyear

I’m not sure when exactly Cara became obsessed with Buzz Lightyear. I think I may have casually mentioned last year that she should have a Buzz Lightyear Party when she turned 3 years old. From there, her love of Buzz just exploded and we encouraged it. For some reason, I love that she’s not in…

13 Tips for Visiting Disneyland with 5 Day Park Hopper Passes and Young Kids

We took a vacation. I know our life may seem to some like a vacation, but it really is not. Our days are full of school, work, chores, cooking and everyday life stuff. Our week at Disneyland was definitely lacking in most of those activities and it was glorious. When We Visited: February 2014 (Sun-Thur)…

    Enjoyed reading this. 🙂 You had a lot of good tips in there. We’re annual passholders so we spend a lot of time at the Disneyland parks. I thought your readers might benefit by knowing there is a great smartphone app called “Mousewait” that gives you wait times for attractions, fast pass availability, show and parade schedules, live photos from the parks, a hidden mickey checklist (for keeping minis entertained while waiting in line), Food menus, maps, Disneyland secrets a chat lounge and TONS more! It has really helped with trip planning! I’ve been a long time member in the community and highly recommend it! 🙂
    Also, no need to fill water bottles, ANY counter service restaurant will give you free ice water at your request. Also hot water if you want to bring your own tea bags or hot chocolate packets. Hope that helps!ReplyCancel
