Sorry Karen I know how you feel. Kira had a category 5 meltdown the other day. We went in the backyard and for the first time she really really enjoyed it. All the snow had melted so she found all the rocks and a planter with dirt in it. We were out there for almost 2 hours. We had to go in for supper and she started to SCREAM!!!! I have never heard her scream like that. OMG, glad Rob was there to help cus she wiggled right out of my arms! I've seen a few cat 4's but never a 5

Yep, I'm definately getting "hurricane season" with Ellis . Plenty of cat 5's around our house.

At least Kira has an excuse - she's teeny tiny and doesnt know better...Ellis, however - acts like a 2 year old and then a teenage monster. He actually shouted out loud in the theatre lobby the other day when I was trying to keep hold of his hand cos he'd been tearing round like a mad thing and I'd finally been able to catch him... quote "will someone call the cops - she's hurting me" - I nearly died. A few parents gave me sympathetic looks to show they understood but others looked at me like I was a child killer - a few more episodes like that ...and I might just be

The joys of parenting

Looks like my family and I are going to be crashing your party!

I'm Brandee, and I'll be aboard with my DH, Justin and our three little demons, uh, angels: Ella - will just have turned 5, Jackson - 6, and Leyton - 8!! It will be our second Disney cruise, the first being a 4-day Wonder in '07!

I haven't caught up with the groups posts yet, but I can say without reading too far that we want to participate in EVERYTHING!! Sign us up for Tag and Trick or Treating (both giving and t-o-ting!!).

Can't wait to meet everyone and get acquainted!

Welcome Brandee!!!

I'm Jen, and I will be travelling with my DH Pete, and DS Thomas, who will be 6 when we cruise, as well as some other assorted family who I haven't gotten to post on the boards yet. This will be our second Disney cruise also, our first was a 7 day Western in '07.

I'm so glad you found our group! We do get rather chatty sometimes, but it's all in fun. Please don't feel like you have to catch up - just jump right in and start chatting! Some of us have met on a previous cruise, but we haven't all met yet.

In my siggie, there's an orange I'm with B.O.B. logo (which stands for Bash on the Boat - our cruise nickname)....click on it and it will take you to a website one of our cruisers Timon (aka Cass) has set up for us. We're just starting to get things planned out, but we have lots of time, and lots of fun in store!

For DIStag, send me (millerpjm) and Karen (Karen Mouse) a PM, and we'll get you signed up!

For trick-or-treating, email Cass (there's a link on her site)...

For other questions, just shout 'em out! And welcome!!!

Hi Brandee & Family......​

Awwww...thanks, what a warm welcome!

Welcome !!!! - its lovely to have new people to chat to!

I'm Karen, hubby is Neil and Ellis our son will be just 9 when we travel, (theres several kids on this cruise around your childrens ages.) We're from Birmingham, England. our first cruise was last October when we met everyone on this thread for the first time, a lot of us are travelling again so if some of the conversation gets a bit wierd its just cos we know each other so well

We are a rather a chatty bunch but dont let that put you off! - just jump in any time and chat away

Once again - welcome!

I won't be scared away by chattiness! I can't wait to get to know everyone.

WELCOME!!!

I'm Becky, and I will be traveling with my DH Sean. This will be our 4th DCL cruise together (my 6th). We have 2 Stinky Teens DD 15, DS 19 (as we call them here on the thread), but they will be staying home and going to school.

How lucky you are to be going on your own! We definitely have several years before we'll even be able to daydream about it.

Welcome Brandee and family

I am Cheryl and I will be cruising with my DH Al and our DD Rachel who will be 15 at the time of the cruise. Rachel is bringing along her friend, Courtney, who will be 15 also. This will be our 6th cruise on the Magic, our second Eastern. This is a very chatty bunch, just jump in when you get a chance.

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

[millerpjm]

Just got back from Michaels - they did have t-shirts on sale!!!!! Regularly $3.99 USD, I got them for $1.89 USD each!!!

I bought 18...enough for all the family (except 1 size 2x, they didn't have any) plus 3 for our MNSSHP t-shirts (if we do it, if not I'll do something else with them) and a few others for miscellaneous projects.

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

its not in our bedrooms anymore all the suit cases are in your bedroom now =]
tell dad to put them away since he likes putting things away since he cleared out my room

sorry but im cleaning my room =]

I was wondering what all that noise was coming from your room. I don't think I even want to look and see what my bedroom looks like now. Can I walk in it?

Welcome to the "family" Brandee.

I'm Jeff and my DW is Suz. We're sailing with our DS who will be 9. Is Leyton 8 now or on the cruise? Looks like a lot of boys the same age.

Where are you from? Any chance another Wisconsonite?

Are you celebrating anything on this cruise? BOB stands for Bash on the Boat since many people are celebrating something.

Don't get discouraged if you fall behind on the thread, just jump in anytime. Most topics run a couple days and then die. If anything important comes up, we either mention it in post #1 or on Cass' site (click on the BOB logo at the bottom of some of the posts).

Brandee, I noticed your Darth Vader icon for DS1 - is he a Star Wars fan by chance? If so, he's in good company...we have several SW fans on the roster - including my DH and DS!

 

[2Princes_&_1Princess]

Welcome aboard Brandee and family!!!
I am Cass, and I will be cruising with my hubby Rob. Our (then) almost 3 year old daughter will be staying home with family. Hope to meet you and your family on the ship! Sometimes this thread moves fast, don't worry about keeping up, just post when you can

Yeah, in a matter of 10 minutes, I've already figured out there's no way I'm going to catch up. I'll just have to jump in from here!

Welcome to the cruise!!!

We have a great bunch of people here who love to talk ... please jump right in and join the fun!

My name is Brenda and my DH is Jason - we're DINKS and dorks and geeks and a few other things I'm probably forgetting.

Glad to have you with us!!

You guys are going to have the BEST time on the cruise. We used to be DINKS, but now we're a SITCOM (Single Income, Three Children, Outrageous Mortgage).

Thanks for the helpful linkage and directions. I'm going to do the PMs and the site visit next!

Yes, actually both my boys are big fans, and my daughter can hang, too! We're already getting ready for our annual visit to DHS for SWW. We look forward to it all year!

I just looked at these - so cute!!!!!

 

[JLDSMD]

If only I knew someone in the US that would do that for us

I'd offer my address, but my brother already uses it because he wants the Milwaukee channels.

I think I need to get to Michael's this week. That is a great price for t-shirts! Rachel is always doing things with t-shirts for school so this would be a good time to stock up for her for school "projects" and for the cruise. At that price maybe she and I could even make some for our Christmas trip.

Leyton will be 8 on the cruise. It does look like he'll be in good company!

Nope, I'm from Sunny Florida! Acutally, we live in Longwood, which is a suburb of Orlando. I work for a major theme park in the area, but I can't say which one in a public forum.

Well, my birthday is 10/10 -- can we count that as our celebration??

Weren't you something else like One-legged-flashing-for-freebies, etc, etc?

 

[millerpjm]

Yes, actually both my boys are big fans, and my daughter can hang, too! We're already getting ready for our annual visit to DHS for SWW. We look forward to it all year!

We've never been to the SWW - I bet it would be cool....you'll have to post pics after you go!

Ok, gotta go....we have a lunch date with some of our friends.

I'll catch up later, and welcome again Brandee!

We'll be chatting a lot (if we don't scare you off!)...
