Isn't it a little early to start a PTR?..Why yes, yes it is.(new pics!11/19)

We got Amelia's 2 year pics done last night and she did MUCH better than I expected. I had M&Ms in my bag and I would give her a couple in betoween each shot. Worked great. They had Santa there and we waited until the end to get her pic with him.....she went to tears right away....that was the end of the session. But we did get some great shots out of it. I had them start with some family shots to warm her up.


Here is a pic of our family.....be on the lookout for us if you will be at WDW December 1 to 10!











Amelia in her birthday dress.....Minnie Mouse!











We got most of the party stuff done yesterday.....we just have to pick up the cake and balloons on Sat morning. And I need to get all of my grocery items Friday night after work. Once the party is over I can go back to my Disney planning!!!!

PS....I am kinda bummed that they turned out so small! Does anyone know how to make pics bigger from photobucket?

I think I might just get the costumes and the larger items....I think there is a bed and other items like that. If I get the smaller pieces they will be put away until she is a little older or if Dave or I are playing with her. I think they have costumes......we will have to be playing with her to help her get the costumes on and off!

Pick a pearl for Amelia and I.....I might save hers and eventually make a bracelet/necklace.

My little pony box.....do you think Amelia is too young for this

Mr Potato head box

new potholders and kitchen towels for us

Christmas ornaments from WS for my inlaws and Dave's granparents

Candy from WS for an elderly friend of the family

Mickey ears for Amelia

Frank the Combine from the Cars movie for my nephew Logan

Some Star Wars legos for Logan

And more that I can't think of right now!!!!

I love to shop so I have a feeling we will be bringing back lots of good stuff. I plan on packing diapers/wipes and snack food so we have room in the suitcases on the way back!

I am looking forward to the shopping too! My Little Pony: Lilian has been playing with them for awhile now (she just turned three). She probably started at about 2 years old. She loves to brush their tails and such. You can always get some and put them up if you think some of the pieces are too small.

We have a similar shopping list. I want to get Mickey Ears (for the three of us since we have never gotten a set before), My Little Pony Accessories, Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head Pieces among many others I am sure that will end up on our list.

I am so glad the photo session went better for you this time around! They are just adorable Love the Minnie dress! That is what my DD was for Halloween this year.

Photobucket: Above each photo is an option to size them. Have you tried that yet?

I'ts party day!!!! I just thought I would write a quick note.......my house is clean.....Amelia is down for a nap......the food prep is done....and I have 2 hours and 45 minutes until guests arrive. I hope to have pics from the party up tonight or tomorrow....I need to make sure my memory card is clean before we leave.

Last night I was watching Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice (My DVR records them because I work on Thursday nights). They showed the previews for the next episode and they said it would air in 2 weeks......I realized where I would be during that showing......you guessed it in DISNEY WORLD!!!!!!!!!! I got so excited realizing that and Dave didn't understand!

10 days to go!!!!! I can't wait! I am planning on putting our Christmas stuff out tomorrow after I clean up the party mess so that all of our decorations will be up when we get back!

I will be back tomorrow to dance for single digits!!!!

I hope Amelia's party is fabulous!! Looking forward to seeing pictures if you are willing to post a few.



Single digit dance, well almost!!!!!
