Daddy & Ethan Day at Disneyland

On June 12th, Jon & Ethan spent the day, just the two of them, at Disneyland. This was Jon's last day of paternity leave, and we wanted to make sure that Ethan got some alone time with his Daddy before he went back to work. They were able to go on all the rides that lately he could not ride because Reid was with. His first ride was Toy Story Mania. He of course loved it!
He also went & saw the Playhouse Disney show & also got to see the new Aladdin show. Ethan was super excited to see this show, since his new favorite movie is Aladdin... the cave of wonders being his favorite character...strange I know. Ethan is now 40" tall. So apparently, to Jon, this meant to take Ethan not on Thunder Mountain, not on Splash Mountain, not on Space Mountain, and not even on Soaring, but this meant to take Ethan on the Tower of Terror. The name alone should have told him that he was not ready for the ride. Ethan actually enjoyed the drop, but not the scary parts of the ride including the people that say good-bye to you( that's what he told me when he got home). After the ride, he cried a little and Jon promised not to take him on that ride for a while. Ethan quickly agreed. They then met up with Brennan & Sirimal for lunch and a few rides at the Disneyland side of the park. Before they left for the day, Ethan was allowed to pick one thing to get for the park. He picked a lollipop! He looks like he is in pure heaven in the picture; however he must have not loved it too much because the lollipop still looks brand new in the cabinet in our home...oh well. Ethan overall had a great day with his Daddy, minus the Tower, and can't wait to have another Daddy & Ethan day!
