Morning Brandi! How are you today? I am just spending a few minutes here before I go dry my hair and get on with the day. I have to go back to the mall where I had the boys' pics taken Saturday... because I forgot my wallet so I couldn't order the pictures. argh. But I need to return a few things anyway. Then we've got gymnastics this afternoon. I love gymnastics because the boys get to jump around and work out their energy and I get to do nothing but talk to one of my good friends for an hour. It's bliss! Well almost bliss.. the stinky feet smell of the gymnasium is something I could do without. So what's your day looking like?

did we lose Caroline?

Hi,
We are all set for the cruise on December 9th. It looks like I am a little late in joining this board, but I just wanted to say hi and looking so forward to the cruise! Joining me is my DH, DD (11), DS (10), DS (6), DS (4), and MIL. We can't wait!

Glad to see you posting here! Don't worry about being late and catching up to this point, there will be plenty to read from here onward! Have you been on a Disney Cruise before?

Hi Caroline...did you drop your DD of at preschool?

GM Brandi!

Yes I did. Now I have to remember to pick her up!

 

[TanaL]

How far away from the Mall of America are you Tana?

About 40 minutes if there is no traffic. It is right by the airport which is in a Southern suburb of Mpls/St Paul. I live in a Northern suburb on the far NW corner of Minneapolis, right on the edge of civilization basically. So we have to cross Minneapolis to get down there. There is also an Ikea there so it's well worth the trip!

I am doing everything I can to get us to 40,000~~!

Let's go gang! This dis rocks!!!

 

[pyramid2000]

Is anyone doing the talent show? I never went to see that before. Did anyone even see it?

DD's keep practicing singing different songs and talking about it, but then they both say there is no way they will sing on stage. I also thought about asking their piano teacher if she can find a duet they can play on the piano. Is there a piano available to play on though?? Maybe you can find a Disney song for them Brandi!!

 

[TanaL]

Welcome ChiFiveO! I saw you have THREE boys, wow! I have two that will be turning 5 and 7 next month so pretty close in age to your younger two. There are lots of kids in this age range in our group!!

Tuesday is generally my stay home day. I dropped Jake at preschool. I am about to put Eliza in for a nap. I have laundry to do. Today I am getting things ready to upload to Ebay. I need to make some money ya know!!!
I don't even have to make dinner. We go to my mother's house every Tuesday. It will be nice. Tonight DH has consistory meeting. I bet DS will sleep over at Grammy's. He will ask (he does every Tuesday) with his sweet little puppy dog eyes and neither of us can refuse! It is funny how a little 3 year old can play ya!

We do not have an Ikea anywhere near us. I have never even been to one!

Am I the only one who has never watched SATC?

No you are not.

I don't know for sure...but I would be willing to bet there is a piano!

I am going to the music store this week. I could look and see what they have. I know there are lots of Disney songs out there. Do you know about what level they are playing?

 

[MrsMork]

So help I am sooooooooooooo sick every night hungry yet sick at the same time...I think I am going to bed because this is such a TERRIBLE feeling! My first OB appointment is tomorrow!!!

But I passed a very large one on my way out to see ya! I've never been to one either.

 

[TanaL]

Angie! You are up early! good morning!

 

[TanaL]

well the 40 second rule isn't hurting me today because it is taking over 40 seconds for my posts to go through. ARGH!! how are we going to get to 40k today if Dis won't cooperate with us?

King of prussia although a hike is probably closest for you Brandi....IKEA is addictive like these boards....

(hate to post and run

(..my posting has become a bone of contention at home)

Now that sounds like fun!!!

Kim, Amy is in St Paul which is near me. Is there a Kellogg in Chicago too? That is funny! I love Chicago too... way more fun than St Paul! I can't wait to take the boys to Chicago to go to the Aquarium, the Science Museum, etc. I've heard they have a great children's musuem, have you been to it? My dh isn't as into going as I am... maybe you and I should meet there with the kids!

I want to go to that new store by Gap too, can't remember the name of it now but there is at least one in Chicago. The dressing rooms are in the center of the store, name is something & something. Now why can't they come to the Mall of America??

Hey John, it looks like Amy has come a LONG way from not wanting to meet any "crazy internet" people in OBX to meeting them all alone in a big city!!
