We're trying to get our 2 year old used to taking pictures with characters before the cruise, so we made a trip over to DHS this morning. The whole trip there he was excited about about seeing Mickey and giving him a kiss and hug. Then we got there and once he saw Mickey, he decided he wasn't interested, but he saw Doug (the dog from Up) and wanted to go hug and pet him. So we stood in line for 20 minutes to see Doug and as soon as we walked up to him, our son started crying. Needless to say the trip was not successful.

We're staying at BLT next weekend so hopefully we'll have better luck. Any ideas would be appreciated. He likes to watch from a distance, but won't get within 5 feet without crying.

When both my DS and DD were that age they went through the same thing. All our pictures of them at that age are with them being held by someone. I really would not stress so much about it. Just make sure you take turns being in the pictures so you have a good balance of the vacation photos. A funny story for my DD was in France she wanted a picture with Belle dressed in her plain everyday dress. Well, Belle and the Beast were together. She wanted no part of the Beast. He was gracious enough to back away and let her get her picture with Belle. Once I snapped the shot, he quietly walked up behind them and stood just close enough that I could get the picture with all of them. DS never knew until she saw the picture later.

You might also consider letting DS take a few pictures of you with the characters so he gets used to being around the characters.

Good morning Member Cruisers!
We sail in 5 weeks!

Mary, Thanks for the update. I can not believe it is only 5 weeks away. Not sure if you have a treatment tomorrow but we will be sending good thoughts your way.

Flo - I did that this afternoon.

 

[FaithTrustnPixieDust]

Wow, you were all very chatty today. Looks like you had fun while watching the webcams.

We are getting very excited here at our house for the cruise.

We have a Mickey Christmas countdown which we convert to a vacation countdown. On her way to bed, DD asked if she could update it tomorrow. I said, "Yes." She said, "When I get up?" I said, "Yes!" She said, "As soon as I wake up?" YES!! So, she went right to bed and was asleep in about 5minutes.

It was very hot in southern NJ today. We had a bad storm come through this evening with high winds. Left some damage and lots of things blown around. Temps tomorrow 94-98 with heat index of 105.

Congrats to all of you that are done your FE gifts. I will definitely need to go back through all the kids bags I made up a few weeks back. I know I do not have enough now as the list keeps growing. Yikes. Good thing I bought extras. I think I will need to head back for more items for the older kids.

Sue - How did DS make out with his blackbelt? I was hoping I would see an update as I read through the posts.

Dave - Hope the family had a safe trip this weekend.

Have a great day tomorrow - or today - as most will not read this until Monday!!!

For all you creating magnets, Kellybell on the DISign board created this for me. I was going to create magnets for everyone but I am not going to be able to at this point. DD and I already started working on items for each cabin and we are not done them yet. With my school work and trying to get everything else ready for the cruise I had to make my final decision today regarding the magnets. Time is running out.

So, I wanted to share this with you all so that if you would like to print one out for yourselves please feel free to do so. She copied the SSMC09 image from my signature as per my request but she was not real happy with the quality. I decided just to leave it as is and not ask her to change the design. She is very busy with so many requests.



And this way everyone posting here can print one out....not just those participating in the FE exchange.

 

[FaithTrustnPixieDust]

Ok, I really am going to log off this time.

Dustin with Grand Master Artesi - a 10th Degree Red Belt

Yeah for our DS Dustin!
He earned his Black Belt in GoJu Karate today!!​

It was a very long day - the test started at 11:30 am and finished around 6 pm. He was exhausted! But we are very proud of him and wanted to share the good news. Thanks for everyone's support for him - it was greatly appreciated!

 

[susieq55]

Congrats on the ES and Pirate! We were still at the test while you guys were all busy chatting!

Great photo of the Wonder!

Yeah only five weeks.

Talk to everyone in the morning - very tired - night night!!

 

[BoosGram]

Thanks Joanne! Isn't the summer weather great! Well, sometimes it is. We need the rain, just not the storms. It is getting really black out again!


Let's make a date for next Sunday to be on to check out the web cams. It was fun today. Then, maybe, we can get you a or . It's worth a shot. What do ya think? Date?

Sounds great. I think I'm going to have to put next Sunday in my calendar, but it's sure worth a try. Let's try to remind each other; I'd love to get onboard w/at least one of the little varmints. And I don't care which one it is!

Hello my fellow SSM09 Cruisers!

Below is the list of people that are participating in the Fish Extender exchange so far.

Also, everyone has two in the room except were I have it listed.
If you need the information on what the Fish Extender is all about or would like to know who to notify if you would like to par take, please see the first post on the first page of this thread.
The ones that have ** in front of them have one adult in the room. The ones that have *** have 3 adults in the room and the ones that have **** have 4 adults in a room.

So far there are 35 cabins.

Please keep in mind the cut off to participate in the Fish Extender exchange is August 12, 2009. This way it gives everyone time to get there items.
If any one would like a list with room numbers and such before the SSM09 send me an e mail (girlwolf@excite.com) or PM me your e mail address and after the cut off I will send you the spreadsheet.

Good morning everyone - happy Monday!

Mary, Thanks for the update. I can not believe it is only 5 weeks away. Not sure if you have a treatment tomorrow but we will be sending good thoughts your way.

Well today would have been my normal day for chemo. In fact if I had stayed on schedule it would have been my last. Instead I'm scheduled to have one tomorrow which will be #11. My doctor was on vacation all last week and doesn't get back until later today. So I have an end of day appointment with him and chemo tomorrow. Then after that only one more which hopefully be the week of August 24th.

Yeah for our DS Dustin!
