Note to Self: Don't forget...

Kate and I went to Disneyland today.
Just her and I. Me and my little person.
And fun, we had!
Life has seemed busy lately, and I was wanting some fun one on one time with my baby. When we pulled up, I looked in my review mirror, and she almost burst with excitement when she realized where we were. She yelled, "Yay!" and threw her arms up in the air.

I love how she kept saying, "Mickey, Pluto, Goofy". I love how close she sat next to me on the monorail. I love how tightly she held my hands in Snow White. I love how little and warm and chubby those hands felt in mine. I love how she says, "castle" when she sees any tall building. I loved the look in her eye when she saw a real "castle" today. I love that she isn't bugging me for cotton candy or curros yet, but wants more raisins. I loved our lunch of PB&J sitting on a bench in front of the castle. I love how excited she got when she saw the ducks. I love how nervous she gets when we get too close to any of the Disney characters. I love her diapered buns in leggings.

I love my little girl. I really want to cherish this time that I have with her. I know in the future, when there are more little kids around, we can't fly by the seat of our pants as much.
I love that we can decide to go to Disneyland, and we are in the car minutes later. She is my little buddy, and always up for anything.
I love my Kate.

ps. And no photos, because I just wanted to take in the day, and decided to leave it at home.

That is so heavenly sounding. I am a wee bit jealous - one little one is so short and sweet.

(also, I heard you are VT comps with my friend Ash! Double jealous.)

Such a fun little BFF day. I am getting passes to Sea World here in Orlando for the same reason. Nothing like getting up and going for a last minute Shamu visit!
