Hello everyone! It's been a while since I've been on. Just got back last night from Virginia. Here's the update on my new granddaughter. Her breathing problems got worse and without going into too much detail, she had to go on a ventilator and have a chest tube put in. She has been sedated for a couple of days. We had a bit of good news yesterday that, while under sedation and from having the chest tube in, she was counting on the ventilator only 20% for her breathing. They will wean her off the vent and remove the chest tube and see if she can continue to breath on her own. I got to see her once, but DH did not get to see her at all. It's so hard to be back in Ohio while she is still in the NICU! Our DD is overdoing it and needs to get more rest, but going back and forth to the hospital can't be helped. She has a great support system through her church and our other DD lives close by. I'll be going back next Monday for a prolonged stay. Thanks so much for all the well wishes and prayers. It really means a lot to me!
She was 5 1/2 weeks early. She weighed 6 lbs 11 oz, so that was helpful. Wow! a 9 lb premie! Good thing she came early!! Yes, the not being able to hold her and for a day or so not even touch her has been very hard for my DD. She held her once before her big troubles began, but her poor DH hasn't held her even once! He keeps busy with their 3 year old, though, and he starts a new job tomorrow and they're looking for a place to live, so not much going on at all!
POFQ is our favorite moderate resort!!! Congrats on your upcoming wedding. You'll love it at FQ!
The Christmas season at Disney is awesome! Glad you joined us!
I loved that show! Not sure where they're going to be able to go, but can't wait to find out.
Maybe you could say you have ressies at Boatwrights so you have to get in the car and drive over to POR.
USCGMOUSE: Everything looks good. Did you include tips in your figures? If so, looks like a great plan!
I think our move to Jan. is probably going to happen. Had a meeting at the school today & the teachers thought it would be a better week for DS to miss. His schedule is crazy this year... EC reading & gifted math... it gets confusing to figure it all out!!!
Congratulations on the new Grand Baby!!!!
How early was she? My DS10 was a 9 pound premie! Our NICU experience was amazing. There are some special people who work with those babies!!! just hang in there... It's so hard not being able to hold them & take them home with you, but it will be a wonderful day when she is strong enough!!!

Good Morning!! Happy Sunday
Went over our plans again yesterday and how to break the surprise that we upgraded to the Royal Princess rooms at POR. They think we are staying at POFQ- My husband and daughter Sarah are driving from Pensacola- and we (Myself and DD 15 Rachel) will meet them at front of POFQ- I was thinking...when they pull up just saying....Beryl (that's my DH- I don't think we are in the right place are we? And he'll say "you know I think you're right...Mickey sent us a little surprise and we have to get back in car and drive just a wee bit farther....we will ask them to cover their eyes or blindfold them, since its a really short trip go over to checkin (or I can try and do this beforehand if I can sneak quickly while I leave Rachel in gift shop or something) and go to room where surprise will be revealed. Any other thoughts on this?? I want it to come naturally. They have NO ide of what's coming. We also plan to have our room decorated by the Disney florist people as well since we are celebrating Sarah college graduation, and Rachel's sweet 16!!
