    Feb 2016: The twins are turning 1 and I'm running the Princess Half Marathon! Update 11/5

    We are doing the 100 Day Dance today! Actually instead of dancing, we ate waffles. Forgive my terrible photography. This is my homemade version of the nutella waffles from Sleepy Hollow Refreshments. Here's the real deal back in 2013, with Luke's little baby hand stealing my berries...

    Feb 2016: The twins are turning 1 and I'm running the Princess Half Marathon! Update 11/5

    She hasn't offered so I'm assuming she doesn't want them, hahaha. We took Luke at 10 months old and it was definitely NOT my favorite trip. We just took a day trip to Dutch Wonderland and it was exhausting even though I felt like I barely did anything except move from bench to bench and...

    Feb 2016: The twins are turning 1 and I'm running the Princess Half Marathon! Update 11/5

    Registration for the Princess Half Marathon opened this week and then quickly sold out. Fortunately I did early registration (thanks DVC!) two weeks ago. I also ordered a commemorative pin because why not. Our trip is now seven months away, and if you're a DVC member you know what that...

    Oh my gosh, could they be any cuter? Thank you! That's awesome. It's definitely going to be interesting...especially depending on how mobile they are. Luke wasn't walking yet by his 1st birthday but I'm already picturing these two running off in different directions.

    Feb 2016: The twins are turning 1 and I'm running the Princess Half Marathon! Update 11/5

    Congrats on your twins! How many weeks were you? I remember Brian mentioning that we were close. I really want to take the kids on a Disney cruise but I'm so crazy, I have to wait until they're all old enough that I'm not worried about them falling overboard. So, probably when the twins are...

    Feb 2016: The twins are turning 1 and I'm running the Princess Half Marathon! Update 11/5

    Thanks! They are pretty wonderful--I think we got lucky. We don't get the week off here but I knew it was a thing in other states. I think we're only looking at one bedrooms now. I guess they don't go as quickly as the studios? Thanks! I don't know what I would have done if we hadn't been...

    The babies are here! Okay, they've been here for almost a month but it's hard to type when you're always holding a baby. I didn't go into labor naturally that last week like I hoped, so we showed up at the hospital bright and early on the morning of February 20th for my scheduled induction. Of...

    Feb 2016: The twins are turning 1 and I'm running the Princess Half Marathon! Update 11/5

    Brian and I have been talking about resorts, but before we can REALLY nail down what we can afford points-wise, we have to look EVEN FURTHER into the future and figure out The Cousins Trip. The Cousins Trip was proposed years ago, and we decided five would be a good age for it to happen. The...

    Yay for December! It looks like we have the same birthday week (I'm the 6th and my son is the 8th). I'll definitely pop over to your PTR and live vicariously through your plans. :thumbsup2

    Feb 2016: The twins are turning 1 and I'm running the Princess Half Marathon! Update 11/5

    It's taking me a while to warm up to the new look of the disboards. I hate change! Thanks! Yeah, I've been shopping around for double jogging strollers and wondering, "how easy would this be to take to Disney?" AKV is awesome! When we were deciding between buying there or Bay Lake Tower, we...

    A Jan 2016 PTR-Disney is taking over my life edition *Update 12/10-MagicBands!*

    Haha, I have a little sister just like this. She's eight and knows that she is just so much smarter and wiser than the rest of us. I don't have any practical advice about resorts because I haven't stayed at any of them, but I'm going to cast my vote for Art of Animation anyway. My family (not...

    For Christmas 2013, my husband gave me a bunch of Disney scrapbook stuff so I could...make a Disney scrapbook. Because I am a procrastinator, I didn't actually start working on it until a few weeks before Christmas 2014 (I figured if I didn't start using last year's presents, he might not buy me...

    Started packing! Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay! 5 more days til my Disney vacay!

    It looks like we'll be at Magic Kingdom on the same day. I'll be the one with the cute baby! :wave2: Our drive down is 13 hours, so I got about ten million Disney CDs from the library. But my favorite vacation theme song is "Nothin' But A Good Time" by Poison. :thumbsup2 I hope you have a...

    Day 10 (Monday) Our last day--we check out of the Beach Club today. :( I want to end the trip at Magic Kingdom, so that's where we're headed. We made FP+ reservations for: Space Mountain Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and to meet Rapunzel (and a friend!) at the new...

    With three days to go I'm making good progress on my "to do before vacation" list. Today I took the car to get the oil changed and, while we were waiting, took Luke for a haircut. These were the only two tasks that I tried to delegate to Brian and I somehow ended up stuck with them anyway...

    Day 8 (Saturday) Race Day! :cheer2: We need to head back over to WWOS bright and early for Luke's 100m race. We've practiced running, but I'm SURE that he's just going to stand there and watch the other kids. Or maybe wander off in the wrong direction. It should be fun either way...

    Yeah, I hadn't realized that the only one we haven't done is literally a miniature golf course. I wanted to do them all, but I have no interest in REAL golf. :rotfl:

    Day 7 (Friday) This is our rest and relaxation day. But...it begins early with a breakfast ADR at Cape May. We might go play mini-golf in the morning or early afternoon, because we all get a free round before 4pm with our park tickets. Winter Summerland is adorable, but Brian...

    Day 5 (Wednesday) Brian, Tabby, and Tommy are going to the water park in the morning. Luke and I...are not. I don't swim and I might possibly be a little terrified of water. We'll likely head over to Epcot instead. We might visit our old friend Duffy. Can you see the love? He has...
