Isabella has been pretty busy using nana as her sticker board and coloring her own face. I guess there is a lack of paper at the akran household.

Isabella goes for her first "high tea"
We decided to celebrate valentine one day earlier and went for high tea at the Pleasanton Hotel in downtown pleasanton. Isabella had teddybear tea, its the hotel's version of kids tea they had a brown teddy bear already waiting for Isabella. They served chocolate covered strawberries, couple different kinds of cookies and ham and peanut butter/jelly sandwich to Isabella, she ate the chocolate of the strawberries and had a major sugar rush. Our food was delicious and we had a great time.

Isabella meets Mickey and Minnie
Wow! What an experience this was, we had waited for this trip for a long time. Every time we went to Disneyland we talked about bringing our daughter here one day. We always hoped she would love the experience as much as we did and get transformed to another world. Isabella's first trip to Disneyland was everything we hoped for and more; she loved every bit of it she really was into meeting the characters especially, Minnie and Mickey of course.
We got there on Thursday morning January 31st; initially she seemed surprised to see toontown and the first hour she wandered around in Mickey, Minnie and Goofy's house. Then she saw Minnie walking around in toontown signing autographs Isabella went crazy. I managed to get her ahead of the crowd and she was able to hold Minnie's hand and walk around with her for a few minutes. However, she got upset that other kids were touching Minnie. We then went through Mickey's house and met Mickey and took pictures with him. Isabella liked the Dumbo ride and the teacups and wanted to go again and again.
Day two of our trip masee Bella and nano came and surprised us at our hotel that was cool the more the merrier. Day two was spent in toontown tracking down Mickey and his friends, we also met Pooh, Tigger and Eeyor, however Isabella didn't care much for the Pooh ride.
Day three we had breakfast with Minnie and her friends, this was the highlight for Ocran and me we had dressed up Isabella like Minnie with ears and all. Minnie came to our table as we were just settling in, she was excited to see Isabella dressed like her and Isabella had a long conversation with Minnie singing nursery rhymes, hugging and kissing Minnie we were able to capture it all on video. People around us thought it was so cute and wanted to take pictures of Isabella with Minnie. It was an all you can eat buffet breakfast but we barely eat anything characters kept coming to our table (Pooh, Tiger, Eeyor, Chip and Dale, fairy godmother, Goofy and Captain hook) plus Isabella was not interested in eating at all as usual and wanted to run around after the characters.
Day four our last day at the park was also spent with characters and we also met all the princesses.
To sum it up it was a great trip, everything we had imagined it to be and more. Now the drive back home was a whole other issue, it took us 9 hours to get home from Disneyland. Isabella was not happy sitting in her car seat and we had to take numerous breaks.
