At that age, it's not too bad as they're in the eat/sleep/poop phase still. They're not mobile at all. We flew with a 4 mth old to Florida for my wife's conference. I took the kid on my own to Legoland and the Kennedy Space Center. We did Disneyworld after.

The itinerary is as following.

Then we plan to stay in San Diego for a few days to see the zoo and stuff then fly back. We are going to haul our car seats to either rent a car or Turo in San Diego. Taxi and Uber is kind of out of the question with car seats.
We'll be hauling our then 4yr old and 9 month old. Anything we should be aware of? Anything special we should bring? We've never been on a cruise before.

Cruise ships aren't really equipped for severe medical issues with under 1s. We did Vancouver to Hawaii and had to leave the 8 month old with grandparents as we were going to be more than 500mi from land. It was in the fine print, likely to do with medical evacuation. I guess they aren't set up for With you going down the coast it won't be an issue. Kiddie meds, for pediatric emergencies. Formula and diapers. Kiddie gravol for nausea just in case.
