More Disneyland

Here are a few pictures from our outing with the Cordes. Sorry David, the lack of evidence of your presence was not intentional.

Stuck on Space Mountain

Yesterday we went to Disneyland with the Cordes family. We had a great time hanging out with Delaney and taking turns on the grown-up rides. We took Delaney on the Buzz Lightyear ride and the Winne the Pooh ride. One of the highlights of the evening was getting stuck on Space Mountain. We were coming near the end of the ride when our car suddenly stopped and all the lights came on. Kevin and I were in the front row and had a pretty good view of the room. After about 10 minutes the crew gave us a push start and we finished the little bit of track with the lights on. They let us go again so we could have a better experience. It was all quite interesting.

I'll post more pictures of our outing later.

New Year's Eve Bowling

A little tired of the giant party scene, we went bowling for New Year's Eve. Two years ago, we went bowling with Kevin's Upland friends (as I refer to them). The odd thing is none of them live in Upland any more. We had such a good time we decided to do it again. This year we met in the middle in San Dimas.

Here are some pictures from 2006/2007.

And here we are two years later 2008/2009.

Toys

I think the boys need more toys to occupy themselves during the day. If you can't tell, these are the puppy pads we lay down for the dogs to pee on each morning. Needless to say, there was a lot of pee on the floor.

I gave them each a tennis ball at lunch. We'll see if that helps.

Puppy Proofing

We cleared out our downstairs bedroom for the boys to hang out in during the day. It's cold in the early morning and the boys aren't licensed yet, so the tiled bedroom was perfect. We put down the puppy pads, and for the most part they are peeing in that general area (I mop daily). They have their bed, water, their toys and one of us comes home during lunch.

Today at lunch, however, Kevin found the boys have pulled the closet door forward and squeezed into the closet. When we tiled the downstairs, the floor was lower than the carpet and we hadn't ever put the doors on to a track on the ground.

This was the item they turned into a chew toy.

We are still learning how much puppy proofing we need to do.
