5/17/03 Eastern Cruise.. Who is going?

[Mjasp]

Jim...I have to do the same thing with my timer. Joe it serves us both right for jumping ship and not cruising on the 5/17.

Well, the easiest thing to do is just to delete the old one and create a new one - sorry you guys couldn't make this one. We'll all have to coordinate better next time .

Joe - just won't be the same without the Boone's Farm and pointy cups! But I'm still working on the toll booth idea.

UK Angel - only problem with living so close is that we can't get on the ship whenever we get up that way!

Has anyone started to pack yet?

[Joe & Joanne]

Hi Folks
Was working the toll booth issue as well, however, the contractor had some other things he wanted to build someplace else?????

Yes, we do get snow over here, can be quite a lot but in our little corner of the UK (...South East) its normally quite sheltered luckily! So its always a treat for the kids or anasty shock for us!

Fran
I've got the cases out and the clothes are strewn all over the place this morning. I've bought lots of nice new things for the honeymoon, some from a while ago so I hope they still fit!!! I really want to start packing but don't want everything to get all creased!

Well, today is the last day of tax season. Have made it through another year.

The weather is finally warming up, and we are actually seeing sun. It's rather scarry. I think I heard that we are getting more rain later in the week.

Hope everyone has a great day.....1 month from tomorrow we leave for the Raddison. Can't wait.

Well my twin #2 didn't make it. It died two to three days ago according to sonogram measurements. I had a feeling in my heart on Saturday that something had changed I don't know how to exactly describe it. One thing I noticed is that my horrible nausea has gone down quite a bit in the past few days.

Twin #1 is doing great. It has a heart rate of 149 beats per minute. I actually heard it, it was so cool! The baby measured yesterday at 13mm and is around 7 weeks 4 days according to the measurements. Today I am actually 8 weeks pregnant going from last menstrual period. I don't really understand how I can be 8 weeks but the measurements yesterday are 7 weeks 4 days, unless it is just growing slowly. Which I was told it is growing at a perfect rate. 1 1/2 weeks ago it measured 6mm and yesterday it measures 13mm so it has more than doubled in size. The ultrasound technician told me that as I get further along we will get a better idea of actual due date, but for now my due date is November 27th which is Thanksgiving day. She said that this twin is perfect (so far).

ILDC I am so sorry to hear about your second twin...my thoughts are with you, and I'm sending you a big hug from the UK.

...but I am glad to hear how well twin #1 is doing, he/she sounds good and healthy.

Take care

I Luv Disney Cruise,

I'm so sorry to hear that your twin didn't make it. The same thing happened to me. My first sonogram showed two sacs which meant fraternal twins, but one sac was much smaller than the other and the doctor told me right away that one might not make it. The doctor was right, but the second twin grew stronger and stronger and is now a healthy 5 year old. He was 9 Lbs, 6 oz. at birth. The good news is that the twin is absorbed back into your body and will not harm you or it's twin in any way.
I still think about my lost twin, but my son has enough energy for 2 kids and there are times when I wonder if I could have taken care of 2 of him at the same time. They say things happen for a reason even though it's hard to imagine what that reason is.
Enjoy your pregnancy and take good care of yourself. Hope to meet you on the cruise. We're geting closer and closer.

Donna

Thanks everyone for you thoughts.

dvarallo: I hope we get to meet on the cruise. Thanks for sharing your story with me.

 

[SQUIGGLE]

ILDC - So sorry for your loss. But now you will have twice the love to lavish on your little souvenier.

Hugs

Just bumping this up so we can all carry on getting excited.........

 

[I Luv Disney Cruise]

4 weeks and 1 day till we leave for Port Canaveral!!!!

 

[Psiklops]

4 weeks and 1 day till I don't have to post how much time we've got left!

- Jim

(But I probably will, anyway)

 

[donnabres]

1 month from now, we will be, getting ready to go to the port . Many of you will be on planes headed to the port, whichever one you are we will be on the ship 1 month from today.

Can't come fast enough. I watched 1/2 of the Travel channel special the other night. Got a frantic call from a friend who thought she had to file an extention for her 16 year old son. Went over and took care of it for them. Thank God tax season is over. Will only be working 6 hrs a week now. Working hard for the winter does pay off.

I started to watch again at 11 but fell asleep 5 mins. into it. Thought I taped it, but........never changed the clock for daylight savings time. Oh well, have changed the clock and reset it for Sat. afternoon.

Have a great day.

Donna

 

[mmouse37]

Yep...I woke the kids up today and said....."One month from today, and we will be sailing again" They were psyched!!!!

It all depends on how you booked your trip. I got mine directly from my travel agent last week. If you booked through Dreams Unlimited or Disney Cruise Lines they will come UPS or Fed Ex.

Hmmm... we booked through DVC Member Services. Both UPS and Fed Ex have already made their deliveries in my neighborhood for the day without stopping here! Patience is not my best virtue!!
