California (part one)

We took the kids to California last week. It was so much fun!! We played in the hotel's splash pad, went to the beach, and of course went to Disneyland. The kids were ANGELS!! We could not have expected or even hoped that they would be as good as the were. We had such a good time and Tyson even joined us when he could. Caution, lots and lots of pictures!!

These kids loved everything about our trip, even waiting for the plane!

Our hotel had an awesome pirate ship splash pad and both kids loved it.

Charlie was ready to go to the beach.

Macie was ready too :)

Playing in the sand is Charlies favorite thing to do, so the beach was a hit!

Charlie and Tyson built an awesome sand castle.

I love this picture because of Andrew and Macie in the background.

Macie obviously didn't want her feet in the water!! 

 

 

 

Macie really didn't want her feet in the water!

It was a beautiful day at the beach, not a cloud in the sky!

Poor Macie

Macie loves to do this horsey game on our laps and at the end she goes upside down. She loves, loves, loves it. The other day Andrew was doing it and she came back up and started crying super hard. She got cold sweats, she had a hard time opening her eyes, and she threw up. We were super worried because she was also very lethargic. She would be ok and then she would start crying hard again. We figured out it was her arm that was hurt. We rotated her shoulders and nothing seemed to be dislocated so we thought maybe her muscle was strained. She had her nine month check up the next day (luckily). She didn't move her arm the whole morning before her appointment. I asked the Dr. to look at it and sure enough her elbow was dislocated. He popped it back into place and she was just fine after that. I felt so bad that she was in so much pain for like 18 hours. Poor little Macie. Her check up went well though. She is doing great (now) and is growing up too quickly!!! 

Her nine month stats are:

Weight: 15 lbs. 6 oz. (4%)

Height: 27 in. (32 %)

Head: 44 cm. (52%)

We are so glad she is happy and healthy again!!
