Crafts and Dessert for Valentine's Day

It's time to make something yummy for dada! Whatcha think the little baker's gonna make, cupcakes or a cake?


While we wait for the cake or cupcakes to bake, it's time to craft!

Little girl is hard at work.

Stay tuned for Zoë's baked surprise and all her deco.

Decorating a Vday Card

Zoë's excited to create a cute Valentine's Day card for dada!

Valentine's Day Date

Celebrating Valentine's Day this weekend. Because it doesn't matter what day it is, ya know? We headed out to the best celebrating spot that isn't too far, SD.

Zoë was a bit antsy on the car ride there, so we decided to head to Extraordinary Desserts first.

Hmmm, what to order? Decisions, decisions, decisions.

Daddy and Zoë hanging out while we wait for our table.

And, finally seated. We said yes to the bar because it was faster. Zoë gets a seat a the bar!

And yey, dessert time!

Baby girl didn't hesitate to dig in.

A few close-up shots. We got the Shangri-La cake and a cookie.

Couldn't resist getting a shot of Zoë chillin at the bar. Hahaha.

And then, dinner! We headed to our other favorite spot, Phil's BBQ.

Happy Valentines Day

Not celebrating today, but could not resist getting the baby girl a cute card. The one came with little cardboard cutouts to build an adorable caterpillar with. She loved it and loved building it with me.

Disney Valentine's Day

Heard that there's new deco for Valentine's Day at Disneyland, so we had to check it out.

This was also the first weekend with perfect Disney weather. So everyone and their mom was over there! We decided to just park at Downtown Disney. We were buying something anyways, so we would get at least 3 hours free parking. Which was more than enough with Zoë.

We were also pretty hungry, so we grabbed food over at Earls.


After eating, we were about to make our way to Disneyland, but saw these cute window images for Mickey's birthday.


Zoë instantly gravitated towards Minnie Mouse's of course!

And now Disneyland!

The front entrance had hearts all around the Mickey Face right when you get in. A bit cheesy looking, but does make for nice pictures.


The lamp posts still had banners for Mickey's birthday.

Then, we saw that Minnie Mouse had a really cute spring outfit on. Sadly, though, they closed the line for photos with her. Whelp, guess we gotta go with the Goofster.

As for the actual Valentine's deco, they had these around the Main Street entrance, which they've had every Valentine's.

Also, some very pretty spring flowers.

One of the newest additions is this cute structure.

Aaaaand, that's pretty much it.

Zoë wanted to ride Dumbo. We headed over there and were waiting for our return time. Of course, she saw the cotton candy cart and wanted one. She got one and was so happy!


And here were are on Dumbo! It was just me and her because Daddy fears he'll get vertigo again.

We decided to hit up Toontown today too. The Jolly Trolley was empty and begging for passengers, so we hopped right on.

We also saw that Donald was over at his boat, so we went over to stop and say Hi!

Now for the fun part. We coaxed Zoë to give Gadget's Go Coaster since she was of height. And, well, we forgot how fast it went! Annnnd that the first drop was actually pretty scary for a kiddo. Even worse, they gave us the back seat!

Poor baby. She put her hands up while we were going up, but once we dropped, so did her face. And right before the end, she was literally about to cry. Thank goodness it was over before she full on balled. Guess this ride is a no go now too.

We felt bad and had to make her feel better so we said we'll get her ice cream and a new toy.

Here's her ice cream!

Other than the roller coaster, Zoë had a blast today!
