Love the rest of the Kauai pics. Your girls are adorable too! The sea lions on the beach are really cool. I would love to go to Hawaii. Sorry about your dishwasher that stinks.

Thanks, the new dishwasher came yesterday. It is pretty nice and quiet! Our old one sounded like a plane taking off!

YAY for a new dishwasher! I got a new one a few years ago. I couldn't believe the difference. I love things that make my life easier and quieter.

Any big plans for the weekend? I will try to get the package put together this weekend for mail on Monday. Sound good?

No big weekend plans. The "service needed" light came on in the family vehicle so I guess we need to get that taken care of. My SIL and family arrive on thurs next week and Avery's bday party is next Sat. I wish people would rsvp so I know how much stuff to get. Yay for the package! You guys have anything fun going on??

I have to make two birthday cakes tonight for a birthday party we are attending tomorrow.

It makes it so hard to plan and accommodate when you don't know who to expect. Being that you have family coming in you'd probably like to have that out of the way before they get in town. What is the theme of Avery's party? She will be 5 correct?

Tomorrow early afternoon we have a Disc Golf event with Girl Scouts and then we will head over to the birthday party tomorrow evening. No extra curriculars on Sunday at this point so hopefully I will work on the presentation for the job interview...who am I kidding we have another busy weekend ahead of us!

Maybe it's a good thing the dishwasher died then, now you have a nice quiet new one. I agree I can't stand when people don't RSVP. So tell us about Avery's party.

Ah, thanks-they are pretty photogenic. Also happy and full of life-I am blessed.

Alright more cakes! What kind this time? Please post some pics! Yep the big 5. The theme is Ariel of course! We invited all 12 kids in her school class and maybe 10 from playgroup and have heard from 6. Urg. I have decor to buy. More like plates and stuff since it is at the park. My hubby used to play disc golf-the girls like chasing aafter the discs when we go to the park. Better prepare girl, also a little interent shopping maybe??

Last year we did a nice low key "invite 4 friends to your 4th bday" party at my mom's. This year we were just going to do something with family. Then my SIL and family decided to come to town-which is great. Avery and her cousin are 10 weeks apart in age and very close! So we asked Avery if she what she wanted to do. She said a Ariel party. I suggested the park and she agreed. We invited her school class and some playgroup friends. We will do snacks and cake. Nothing to major. Instead of gifts we are doing a paama donation to a local organization that gives pj's to kids in crisis. Often ones that are removed by CPS from their homes with little or nothing. A great organization and no stuff we don't need. Did the same for Cayley's party back in Sep. I have to order the cake this weekend. One of our local stores finally can gaurentee a nut free cake-one of Avery's best friends has a life threatening nut allergy. So friends at the park-hopefully low key.

Mini Update

Added a ressie to Sci FI Dine In for lunch on tues. Saw some good reviews and it looks fun. We just have one day planned at DHS so I wanted to include lunch.

May add another day to our tickets so we can do the Dole Whip and Spectro Meet. Since the kids will still be on Az time it seemed like a good time to go. And I love to meet new people!

Going to list some kid's clothes on Ebay to make a little spending $$.

Potty Training the little one-it's going ok so far. She has 58 days to get it!

Big one starts dance classes tomorrow. She is really excited!

Going to work on my itinerary this weeknd.

Hi there! I have meant to say hi and introduce myself. I have seen your posts on other's reports. I see that you have one-I will go check it out. Is this your first trip?? It is for us. There are many Diser's going we are even having a couple of meets. How fun to be staying at the Poly, we are at CBR. Thanks for saying saying hi.

Hubby had lots of fun taking them. Yep, we have a lot of sand here in the desert but not much water. They love the beach!

Good luck with the potty training! Emily was potty trained back in November and December, but when the new year rolled around she decided she didn't want to potty on the big girl potty anymore. Now she goes occasionally, but I haven't been pushing it too much because I figure it will be easier at WDW if she wears pull-ups! Aren't I terrible!!

 

[MaryAz]

I feel your pain. Cayley had been using the potty for # 2 from 20-22mo. She then stopped. I tried a month or so ago but no interest. She seems more into it now. Used the potty all day so far! I think we will still bring pullups just in case though.

 

[MaryAz]

I called and added an extra day to our tickets this am! Only cost like $12 for all of us....So to the Dole Whip and Spectro Meet we go. Will have to cancel my T Rex ressie. I think we will do counter service in the park. We don't arrive until 4p.

Fun buys at Costco today. Mickey Mouse head chicken nuggets and hot pink Mary Jane Crocs. for me. Also tinkerbell swimsuits with coverups for the girls!

Now to revamp my itinerary....

Cool buys!! I just got caught up!! Very cool about adding the extra day!! I am so sorry we wont get to meet! Have fun!!!

I would love to add a day to our passes and go to the Spectro/Wishes meet but we have 5 days left on our non expiring hoppers that we are using. So there is no way to add days . Nothing better than shopping to get you ready for a Disney trip! Looking forward to your Itinerary. We were supposed to go to Sci Fi for Lunch on Tuesday too but now I moved it to Monday when I changed our schedule for the Epcot meet.
