Surviving a 10-Hour Road Trip with Triplets (and 1 Big Sister!)

Welcome back, you guys. Fun vlog for you guys today. We will take you along on our road trip. Hopefully fun. Fun for you guys, maybe not for us. Take you along on our road trip because we are driving a long ways. We are making a pit stop tonight to stay at a hotel because, you know, triplets, not sure how long they'll last. So, pit stop, halfway. We're driving five hours today and I think it's five hours tomorrow. But, Emmy, where are we going? Disneyland! They're cute little heart buns. They've kind of fallen out because they've been a little rough on them today, but all of them should have little heart buns. So excited? Yeah! Oh, yeah. So, we got shoes with a little boost on them to make sure they're tall enough to ride all the rides. But one of the reasons we wanted to go to Disneyland is because the triplets are now tall enough, like I said, to ride pretty much any ride, which is crazy to me. So, we're gonna go to Disneyland. Hopefully have a grand time. My only worry is it's supposed to rain like every day we're there. But maybe that'll help with the lines. We'll see. And my other worry is her leg, you know? But this is, like, Cory's side of the family. They've had a plan for a long time. So, we can't switch or, like, change out. So, that's why. Otherwise, I probably would've changed when Zoe broke her leg again. But we're gonna have a fun time regardless. So, we got all the stuff that we just need to load into the car. We'll have dad come do that. All the shoes we're taking. Blankets. Cece and Nori are going to my mom's. All the bags. This is Zoe. She just crawls, scoots everywhere. But she can walk now if she wants. But I think she's scared and maybe it hurts a little. All right. We're gonna do a pull-up for the drive because I don't want to stop a thousand times between three toddlers. Cute little Zoe. Tries her best. Guys, look here. They are all set up. Oh, you got your tablet. Perfect. These guys are set up. Blanket time. I don't know if we are gonna have room. This is just, like, the not-needed stuff, I guess. Wouldn't be super worried about fitting everything except for the fact we have to take this stroller and that extra piece. That's my worry and that's a must. Like, we need that stroller. Sissy for, like, a week. We've never left Sissy before. We've never left her this long. Your dog. Give her a kiss. You guys, an empty house. Empty, quiet house. All right, you guys. Who's ready? Who's ready to go to Disneyland? Woo! You're set, buddy. You push this button to turn it, okay? You push the button. Oh. Oh, you ate all the candy. There was one thing of candy in there. He ate it. This van for this very reason, because you can fit so much. Cory. Bye, Sissy. Mom's gonna come grab them in a bit. Ready to go. You threw it on the floor. Why'd you throw it on the floor? So far, everyone is asleep, so it is going great. All right, we are at the halfway point for today's road trip. How are you guys doing? Good. They all took a really good nap. Emery kind of took a little nap, and Lincoln a little, but the girls back there took a really good nap, and now we're just getting some gas and taking a bathroom break, and then we will be back on the road to Mesquite, Nevada. Our state. Yep, Nevada. So, we're staying in a hotel there to give these guys a little break, and then we'll finish the trip tomorrow. Look how cool this Maverick is. It has a playground. So smart. Whoa. Can you crawl? Can you climb up there and crawl down? Get all your energy out. Oh, you want that one? Good job. Is it yummy? Is it good? So-so. Is it good? Emmy, is it good? Lincoln, is it good? Whatever, you were just crying because you didn't want to eat it. Again, got them all situated with all their stuff, so we got like two and a half more hours. Almost made it, and it's now dark, but there is such a pretty sunset. Emery needs to go to the bathroom so, so bad. Two minutes away. All right, we've made it, so we have three beds, and the kids are sad because they really want to swim, but that water is freezing, and it's not warm enough here. I think we chose kind of an off week because it is going to be colder, but the hot tub feels more just like a warm bath, so I think we'll do that. But, yep, that's where the air comes out of. Let me go grab swimsuits. I'll be right back. I'll come with you. Stay right here. No. All right, you ready? You ready? Hey, let's get Lincoln ready. Bubby, look at you, handsome boy. Is it warm? Yeah, really warm. In a little pool. Does it keep her cast dry? Cast floats. So, your cast floats? I'm bigger in the deep end. Get in, Link. Let's see. You remember. Lincoln's so scared of the water. Whoa, she is wild, isn't she? Both of them. It's Batman, Link. Here's our little fishies. Oh, I want to go in. Ready? Three, two, one. Whoa. All showered, bathed the kids. That's the worst part of swimming, is afterwards, just getting everyone bathed after. But they had the absolute blast. Emory said, best night ever. It is almost 8 p.m., but the kids' request is McDonald's. So, getting them each a Happy Meal, and they are so excited. And we'll just watch a show in the hotel while we eat dinner, and then it'll be bedtime, and we will get on the road again. The kids, literally, you could just have a full swim trip, and they, it would be the best trip ever. Like, the littlest things make them so happy. Looks like so much food, you guys. He's like, four Happy Meals and two meals. Yeah. That's what it's like, family of six. And they are literally eating more and more by the day. So, pretty soon. I don't know how we will ever eat out, because the money, it is gonna be expensive. Excited? Oh, that is a lot of food. You did? That's actually cute. It's like a little McDonald's, so you can, like, check people out. Whoa. That's cool. What'd you get? You got one, too. My gluten-free meal at McDonald's. It's just the patties with lettuce and ketchup on top. Are you having so much fun, bud? Yeah. Hey, check it out. This is the pull-out bed, and the triplets fit on it, which is perfect, because Cory and me, when we sleep, we need king size, and these are, I think these are full. So, I'm gonna share with Emery, because she's smaller, and then Cory can get his own bed, and the triplets can have theirs. Thank you, guys. Say good morning. Good morning. We're just going to get some breakfast for everyone. Did you sleep good? Slept so good. Ma'am, you've got the breakfast. Let's see it. Good job. You're so big. Good job helping. All right, we are all ready, day two. Loaded up, ready for our next destination. Thank you, hotel. Hi. Was that so much fun? Zoe is sad to leave. She would just stay here the whole trip, I think. But we're going to better places, though. It'll be fun. Feels so good to get out. We have been driving like three and a half hours. Gotta get out, stretch, feed the kids. I think me and Cory are gonna get Chipotle, but we'll let the kids play here at Burger King Playground. They do have better toys than McDonald's, I guess. Oh, you got a different one. Hi, buddy. Poor Zozo. Oh, yummy. You guys got ice cream. Let's eat. Okay, don't drop it. Here you go. Hold tight. Guys, look at the fish. Whoa, you see the fishies? Don't put your own foot in. It is so cold. Oh, it's way cold. I need my jacket. Whoa, what'd you think? What, a fishie. It said, it's Jesus. Lincoln thought that was Jesus up there. Oh. Can we see the ocean? We can. Can see the ocean. Check it out. We finally made it. Yay. This looks awesome. Finally made it on vacation. Cory says it's vacation. I say vacation, and he says it's vacation. He's probably right. Anyways, we made it. We are going to find the pool, if we can find it. But we got all the food, unpacked it, and started packing our stuff because where are we going in the morning? Disneyland. And we have to leave so early for rope drop so we can get the car's ride. She wants to go to the ocean and swimming. That's all the kids would want to do. So maybe we shouldn't have done Disney and just done swimming. We're going to go check out the pools. They really want to swim, but it's really late and we've got to wake up so early. And then we would also have to bathe them. So we're going to wait till Tuesday when we don't have Disney going. Tuesday, so not tomorrow, but the next day is a full day swim day. You guys could swim all day, ocean, all of it. Come on, little ducklings. Monster. A monster. Tornado. There's no tornadoes. Look at all these pools. There's one down there. One right there. These guys are jealous. And they're actually kind of warm. Zoe, you're up high. Guys, this is the setup for tonight. We've got a bed on the floor. Do you like your bed? He loves that bed. And them all up there. Me and dad there. A full room. Good night. Say good night.
