No you send Walt to say hi to Dina.......

You can't miss her....

You guys should both be in pre-board anyway....

Dina latches onto the boys quickly.... (sorry Caroline ..it's true)

I think Caroline mentioned that Dina has already checked out Walt's photo on Lisa's site... so I think I should expect Dina to come up and break the ice!

Everyone!

I am at T-90 minutes to go!!! I actually am pretty much done with what I needed to do at work so now I sit and wait and try not to get sick. My stomach is in knots and doing all kinds of acrobatics that I am fairly sure internal organs should not be doing.

Well Walt is just super adorable. I want to give him a hug everytime I see his picture! A little 3 year old girl would not stand a chance at trying to avoid him.

Yeah BECKA! Please, please be careful and sensible on your drive. If you and Aaron are tired, please make an extra stop or two. You have room in the schedule for extra stops. Don't be stupid like I was once.

After work I am heading over to pick up DH who will have gotten lunch for me and him. We then head to the gas station to top off the tank and buy me some Diet Pepsi (my first good caffiene fix for the drive). While DH is filling up I will eat quickly and then we will drive to the daycare to pick up the kids.

I will pick up Nathan first and force him into a pull-up just as a precautionary measure since he often does not tell us until it is too late to stop. Then I will pick up Allie from her room and load them into the car with their blankets and stuffed animals. While I am inside picking up the kids DH will get the car DVD player set up and ready to go.

Thank you for saying that. He had a really bad behavior day at preschool Tuesday (doesn't go on Wed) so I'm worrying all morning about what is happening today.

After that we hit I-70 and don't stop till we hit Florida!!

Actually Marielle if we do get tired we will stop over for the night probably south of Atlanta. We were stupid once on the drive back last time and we had no business continuing to drive but we did anyway because we wanted to get home. That is why we are stopping overnight on the way back.

I'm debating this too for the plane. On our Thanksgiving drive (12 hours) he held it for almost 8 (we stopped & made him try earlier, but he didn't go). Still stayed dry, but I was stressing!

It couldn't be worse than Nathan yesterday. Nathan punched another kid and a teacher. He was in some serious trouble last night and he should be very, very, very thankful that we were as busy as we were or it would have been even worse. I don't know what has gotten into him lately but I think the excitement is spilling out in a very negative way.

Nathan has stayed dry the last few trips during the day but you just never know. I would rather be safe than sorry and have him have to sit in a damp carseat the rest of the way. KWIM?

Are we the only ones left Marielle? It is so quiet here. I bet tonight and tomorrow will be dead...the thread might even fall to the bottom of page 1 or even the dreaded page 2.

 

[becka]

I wonder if I can hit one more before I leave?

Good for you. I think there are small pieces of black Celica paint still on the interstate guardrail just east of East St. Louis (yikes) because of me.

Becka,

Safe travels to you..

Kristina - I remembered to pack the magnetic tape if you need some for Bananaman pics.

Hi Chris!

 

[becka]

Can I ramble on for 34 more posts?
