Disneyland (take 2)

It stopped raining for about 10 minutes so we took the opportunity to ditch the ugly ponchos and get a family group shot. But don't worry, it immediately started raining again. Wouldn't want the weather to be inconsistent or anything.




Carly wore her Snow White costume this day. So we thought it fitting to get her picture taken by the seven dwarf statues. Ella had on her Sleeping Beauty dress but then decided to change out of it as we were leaving the hotel. She gets really nervous/embarrassed/shy when there is too much attention being put on her. I was a little nervous about this as were were going to be meeting a lot of characters and I knew she would be sad when we got home when it was only Carly in the pictures. And after the freak out she had over meeting Rapunzel...I was hoping things weren't going to be the same when meeting these princesses.


PRINCESS STORY TIME


























SNOW WHITE

Snow White and Ariel are Carly's favorite princesses.
Although a little timid at first, her face just lit up getting to meet these princesses...especially Snow White. She taught her how to hold her dress out for the picture and curtsy like a princess.



It was pretty cute. When Carly walked up to meet her, Snow White put her hands on her hips and with a big smile says, "Have you been shopping in my closet?". Carly got the biggest grin on her face and just giggled and said, "nooooo, Dis is Cah-wee's"





CINDERELLA

Having a little chat.

Ella wanted nothing to do with her...so sad, since Cinderella is Ella's favorite.



I finally coaxed Ella into the picture....as long as she could stand by me and Cinderella didn't talk to her. Silly girl.




AURORA

Look at the smile on her face. Well worth all the money spent to go.





Ella and I sword fighting after she ran away and hid from those "evil" princesses.





Since we went for the girl's birthdays we let them each pick out a toy/souvenir at one of the many Disney shops. Ella picked out a Minnie Mouse brush/make-over kit and Carly of course picked out an Ariel doll equipped with all of Ariel's gear. She carried that doll around with her EVERYWHERE. I was a little worried she'd leave it somewhere but it was always clutched in her tiny pudgy hands. After a long long day we got to our hotel room around 10 or 11 pm. The girls went to bed and fell right to sleep. As I was getting ready to lay down I peaked over at the girls to make sure they were tucked in and saw Carly with that little doll STILL clutched in her cute little hands.
