    Portraits of my children

    i had my dds, ages 2 and 5, done at beach club in may, and am so happy i did-the portraits are lovely, and hung in our living room where they get many praises. the artist took maybe 8-10 digital pictures of the kids, and did the portrait from those, as the children were too young to sit still...

    feb or april?

    I love these boards so much, I wondered if I could ask your advice. We have our first 4 day cruise scheduled for April in a cat 6. The florida resident rates have just been announced, and I'm thinking maybe we should switch to January and take along grandma and grandpa (who live in Orlando)...

    Would you bring an umbrella stroller?

    most umbrella strollers have a maximum weight limit of 40 pounds, after which they can quite easily collapse. Given your childrens' ages, they probably already exceed that weight limit. Also, if you bring a stroller for one, the other child may get jealous of the free ride. I suggest you rent...

    Going to Disney with two little ones just me???

    you can do it! I made a solo trip when the kids were 1 and 4, and I really think it was one of the best trips of our dozen or so disney trips. it will be just fine if you go with the right attitude-you and the kids are a team, and you can't do everything, but you are there to have a good time...
