5/23 update p15 -- Strollin' & Boozin' 2008: Ain't No Baby Gonna Slow Us Down!

[daisylove]

We're doing the 5K, too! We'll be the ones with the honkin' double jogger which houses two adorable little girls that you won't be able to see because mandated helmets (seriously? ) don't really come in "infant", so - evidenced by the fact that my oldest just fell over when we put hers on - they don't fit.

Seriously - two giant purple heads, on small babies toppling out of said stroller for safety's sake.... that'll be us! I hope we run into you guys! Would you mind catching one of my girls if the weight of the helmet drags her away from us?

LOL, I will be the one at the 5k with the not quite 1 yr old that you wont see because of his HUGE blue helmet. Lime green stroller! See you guys there!

Feel better scooner!

First of all - I am soooo jealous you had a snow day yesterday. Just had to get that out of the way.

Secondly - the picture of Scooner and her daddy dancing for beads is absolutely adorable. And as always I was cracking up through the entire post. Your TR postings are well worth waiting for!

I didn't realize you were going back in two days! I'm heading down to WDW next Thursday, so I'll just miss y'all. Have a wonderful time and I can't wait to hear more about Scooner's monkeytastic disney adventures.

Goodness, girl! I thought you forgot about us! I'm glad to see you are back, though. You have been missed.

Have fun at the 5K. Don't forget your Camelbak filled with Natty Lite. Or maybe you should fill it with Bud Ice so you have a reason to run towards something tasty!

Once you have kids, you hear, talk, and even go to the bathroom halfway.

But you're one up on me - I STILL haven't figured out the Kidcot deal!

Mexico is our next visit and I go straight to the booze stand. I order a Strawberry Margarita, which is great because it doesn't have a strong tequila taste. Kory took a sip and said it is just ok because it doesn't have a strong tequila taste.

I'm afraid I'm with Kory on this one. BUT... the Cantina's margaritas generally pack a better punch!

Anyway, without hesitation she knew just where it was supposed to go. But due to inexperience, not how it was supposed to go.

Oh my gosh - too cute!


We should have some delightful weather in store for you later this week - have a great time!

 

[PaulDavid's mom]

We need more!

 

[saratogadreamin09]

We need more!

I AGREE

 

[AshClan]

Have a great time at the Princess 5K. I have everything crossed that precious Scooner is ship-shape in time for the trip!!

Come back with lots of fun stories. And another chapter or two written en route wouldn't be a bad thing. Just sayin'

 

[arizonacolbys]

Yay! Another update! Loved the update & hearing about the baby care center at Epcot since we'll be using those for the first time in December. Scooner is such a cutie!! Love the upsidedown binky - our little one is constantly doing that, too -she loves to yank it out of her mouth, but isn't so good at getting it back in at this point...LOL

I hope she's feeling better asap & it doesn't impact your trip at all! Maddie just got her first cold last week & it definitely wasn't fun. Can't wait for the next update!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I appreciate all the comments, even though it's tough to reply to them all. They make me smile and very happy.

First, Scooner is feeling better. She is on antibiotics for a nasty sinus infection, but it seems to be clearing up some. Disney, here we come! Yay!

Second, I have some good news for me! Remember how I haven't been able to get my other computer fixed, and all my WDW pics are on there? Well I found my memory card from my trip and they are all still on there! So I downloaded all 973 pictures onto my new computer and they are ready to be formatted and uploaded to the web. A job in itself, wooo! At least I can continue with my report and have pictures to show.

Third, more good news for me. I just finished an 18-page paper for my grad class (if you think one trip report installment takes me a while, imagine 18-pages of education crap!). Anyway, once I submit it tomorrow and take a (hopefully short) final, I'll be free to write more. Double yay!

LY, MI!

Oh, and Kory said Busch Lite, not Natty Lite. But like that makes much of a difference.

Great update - can't wait for more!!

Have a great trip

What, no Beast?

 

[Aurora borealis]

Yay! Another trip report. I'm a little behind and just found it...

Anyway, glad you were able to make it back to WDW with the little one. I'm looking forward to future installments.

Geez, I think the last post I made on this board was at your last trip report... How sad is that? Can you tell I haven't been to Disney in awhile? *sigh* And now I'm pregnant, so it'll be a few years! D'oh! (but yay for being preggo)

 

[lulugirl]

This next trip we are staying at Bonnet Creek, which is on property but not owned by WDW. We got a 2-bed which we are excited about. We just need that extra space for Scooner.

May I ask if you booked directly through Wyndham to stay at Bonnet Creek, or are you renting from a timeshare owner?
I am interested in staying there for our next Disney trip. Would love to hear your thoughts on the resort!

Congrats! I went 3 yrs without Disney and it was tooooough! But going with her was great. A lot of freakin' work. I mean it's not even near the same type of vacation. But it's enjoyable in a different way. Although right now we are dealing with a napless 2-yr old, so it ain't great right this minute.

We rented points from someone on the boards. She booked us a 2-bed deluxe and so far I really like it! I don't feel like I'm not staying at WDW, which is a huge sell for me. I've always stayed onsite and I didn't want to lose any magic.

Anywho, the staff here is nice and the suite is really great! I love having a room for her and us. We all don't sleep well together.

 

[raysnkaysmom]

Oh...I definitely loved Bonnet Creek too, it's like being onsite with it's proximity!

Have a great time...and can't wait to continue with the update!!!

 

[smilie]

Scooner is such a doll. Where did she come up with the name "pi pi" for the pacifier???

 

[MickeysMommy]

I just caught up, Al...can't wait to read more!

Truer thoughts have never been typed....

I think I saw you all very briefly in passing after the 5K, but before my brain registered it you were gone!
