Zoo and Sea World

Saturday afternoon we went to Colleen and Damien's for a cookout. There were 3 dogs there and Hayden was in heaven playing with them!
Because Hayden was sick last week, we didn't get to go with Shanda, Kirt, and Carli to the San Diego Zoo and Sea World. We still had passes, though, and they expire this Tuesday. So on Sunday we got ready for a day of being a "San Diego Tourist." We hit the Zoo and Sea World and Loli and Yogi joined us for the entire day!
Of course Hayden would like this guy!

I LOVE the zoo!
Sea World!
Hayden got to meet Elmo and Grover. Yogi's brother, Russ, is actually Elmo. Hayden was soo excited, she could barely wait in line. She fussed the whole time and as soon as I put her down she ran right to Elmo!
Ahhhh
Elmo and Grover saying goodbye to Hayden. Later, Yogi asked Hayden if she got to see Elmo. As soon as she heard his name mentioned, she turned around and ran right back to the stage to see him. LOL!

Southern CA Vacation!!! - LONG BLOG!!!!

Hayden got more sick before she got better. Last Monday we had to take her to the ER because she was sooo dehydrated. A BIG Thank you to Dr. Clay Seiple for being on call with us for days as we discussed her symptoms. Because of him, Hayden is 100% healthy and back to her old self. We had quite a scare, but she is a trooper and a fighter! We love our Dr. Clay!!!!
This was Hayden's IV at the ER as she was getting fluids. It broke our hearts to see her soo weak, but the fluids really helped.
Shanda, Kirt, and Carli came in on Tuesday. Hayden was still pretty sick that day, but by Wed. she had the energy to get off of the couch and want to color with Carli.
And by Thursday.......SHE WAS KISSING MINNIE MOUSE!
We spent 3 days in Disneyland and we all had a great time! Hayden loved feeding the Fairy Godmother.

Carli got some beautiful dresses from her Fairly Godmother. This is Princess Tiana's dress.
Daddy and Hay
We ate breakfast with all the princesses. Carli had gotten a makeover at the Bippotty Boppity Boutique and wore a Princess Belle dress. She looked perfect and she gave a big "thank you" hug to her Dad!
Here is Hayden trying to feed her daddy

Hayden got to ride plenty of rides. Here she is on the carousel with her dad
One morning we had breakfast with Mickey and friends. Mickey took a special liking to Hayden and didn't want to let her go.
Here we are with Pluto again....
Hayden really loved Minnie and Mickey
Carli, Hayden, and Daisy
Every chance Mickey got, he would come to our table and sit with Hayden. Hayden fed Mickey her breakfast. He so loved her that he wrote her a special note that said "To my very good friend, Hayden, thank you for feeding me blueberries and watermelon. Love always, Mickie Mouse." Totally adorable!
Carli got to meet Princess Tiana and they both were soo excited to see each other!
