A Pre-Trip Report by a 5 yo princess...The final countdown!!

hey everybody!

Well, we have been busy little bees around here. Aubrey had her pre-op appt today and all is set for the surgery on Monday. I'm hoping to let her post more on here once she is feeling a bit better. Should be a good diversion since she won't be allowed to go back to school for a bit! So here is what I have done so far to get ready for the August trip! NOTHING!:rotfl2: Ok, so maybe a little bit. I did go on a search at the Dollar Tree for those window clings that everyone said their dollar tree had. Mine didn't!:headache: I have also told dh he needs to tell me which courses to book him for. Only 10 more days and I can book that! As soon as the stimulus check is deposited, I will be paying off the room and buying one of the AP's and maybe the DDE card. Aubrey and I talk about all the rides she wants to do this go round, BBB and the meals all the time. She is so excited! We watched Royal Disney on the travel channel and she almost died when she saw Ariel in the ball gown. She was jumping up and down, saying look mommy she is at dinner! LOL

Other than that, we are gearing up for her birthday party. I sent out 21 invitations and almost everyone is coming.:scared1: I told the person making the cake it better feed about 40 people because that is what we are up to now with the adults included. He said it would if we cut the portions right!:rotfl: I'm actually having to go back and get more supplies to make more goodie bags. I'll post pictures after the party.

So I guess that is our update for now. Take care and I'll chat with you all later.
 
I hope all goes well on Monday. :goodvibes We'll be thinking about ya'll. The boys are good here. I'm good other than having my sorcerer Mickey antenna ball stolen off my car. Then there is the fact that American Airlines decided to cancel our 8:20 pm returning flight and change us to a 6:30 pm flight. Then even if they add the 8:20 pm flight back, I may not be able to get on it.

Also, HAPPY EARLY MOTHER'S DAY!!:banana:
 

Well now that is out of the way, I'll fill you all in on how Aubrey spent her bday! In the ER! She fell at school this morning, hit her head and has a mild concusion. She is fine, back to her normal self, but it was scary for a while there. Anyway, we let her open her cards today and a couple of gifts from the grands and had a cupcake for her. So after a rocky start she at least had a decent day. Tomorrow is party day and she is thrilled about that. It is going to be a mad house of kids, people are still calling today to see if they can still come! LOL So anyway, here is what the bday girl has to say!

Hi Mr. John, Ms. Susan, Rachel, Denise and Jasmine! Thank you for my bday card and the money. Mommy says I should spend it at Disney!

Hi to everyone else. I fell today and have a bruise but I'm ok now. My party is tomorrow and I can't wait. Nite everyone!


Anyway, check back in tomorrow. I hope to post bday party pics. have a great night!
 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUBREY!!!!

I hope you are feeling better soon.

Good luck with the party tomorrow and good luck on Monday!:goodvibes

I will be thinking of you guys while I am at work!
 
HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY AUBREY!!:cake: :bday: party:

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL THE MOTHER'S!!


I have to tell someone, so I hope ya'll don't mind me sharing the best Mother's Day present I have ever gotten. So today we were at my in laws and after lunch we were looking at the pics from my in laws vacation. My sister in law started talking about that she would love to go to WDW as a big family vacation. I asked her if she wanted to do commando or relaxed. She had a strange look on her face, and I heard my DH say behind me, "Listen Kim, she doesn't speak the freaky deaky Dinsey language you speak on those message boards, so to her commando means something different." Then asked her about how long she would like "US" to be there. My DH was like, there is no way we are going to Disney again until 2025 after this upcoming trip. I tried to explain that it wasn't my idea it was my sister is laws, but he just wouln't listen. Then she spoke up and said, "But was my idea. I said I wanted my son's first time to WDW to be special, and I couldn't make a trip like that special without Kim being there. I want us all to go. Not only did he say yes, but he is actually looking forward to it. This will be the first time that we have gone to WDW two years in a row. I am so excited I could just scream!!!:banana: We will be doing a Grand Gathering in December 2009. So only am I planning our trip for December 2008, but I have to start planning a Grand Gathering for December 2009.
 
Thanks for the birthday wishes and the thoughts for tomorrow. She had a great party and I hope to post some of the pics soon!

Happy Mothers Day to everyone!!!!

Kim - Wow! I'm excited for you!!!!
 
Big hug :hug: for you and Aubrey today!! I've been thinking of ya'll all day, and I'm sure everything came out just fine. I just hope she wasn't as grumpy as Joey was when she woke up.
And thank you, I was so excited about it, that I only got 2 hours of sleep last night.
 
Aubrey did great! Surgery went well. She was given Morphine right after she woke up and has had 2 doses of tylenol with codeine since being home and she has just now gone to sleep! So she has been awake for 8 1/2 hrs with all those meds!:scared1: I have no idea how they got her under!:rotfl: She hasn't been grouchy, she was very relieved to see me after the surgery. she has been trying to run around and play and has been telling me that she is hungry every 5 mins and even asked for birthday cake on the way home!:rotfl2: Anyway, thanks for the thoughts and here are a few birthday party pics to share!

The birthday girl!

I'm glad to hear that things went so well. That last pic just cracks me up. I can just imagine her thinking in her head, "Hurry up and take the picture so I can play with my presents Mom."
 
Those pictures are great, and I am glad to hear that Aubrey is feeling better.

DBF and I agree.... Aubrey, you are a very pretty princess. :)
 
Hi there! Julia (6) wants to say hi to Aubrey.

Hi Aubrey! :wave2: I love your birthday cake! Did you have your party at Pump it Up? My friend Rachel had her party there. It was SO MUCH FUN! Are you 6 now like me? I can read. Can you? I like kindergarten. Bye!

We hope that Aubrey is feeling well after her surgery. Poor girl to have to do that so close to her birthday! :lovestruc
 
Thanks for all the thoughts! Today has been a rougher day. She isn't feeling too well right now. I think I'll make her a milkshake when she wakes up!
We are suppose to rec our stimulus check Friday, so I will be paying off the room for the Aug trip and probably buy one of the AP's. So that much will be fun, then on Sat I get to book dh's golf. He'll be thrilled! LOL

Have a great day! I'm going to try to accomplish something while both kids are asleep.
 
Also, wanted to add something for Aubrey...forgot to post it last night! OOPS!

Julia - I am 6 now. I did have my party at Pump It up! It was a lot of fun. I am starting to read easy stuff. I like kindergarten too. When is your last day of school? Mine is June 5th. Bye!
 
Morning everyone. We had a rough nite last night. Had to increase her pain meds, but she seems ok this morning. Hope you all have a great day!
 
Have a bowl of ice cream for me. Joey and I ate tons after he had his. That and tons chicken noodle soup, and the colorless popcycles.
 
Just wanted to post an update really quickly.

Aubrey seems to be doing a bit better, so hopefully that will continue.

Ok, so back to the Disney business! LOL I paid off our room ressie for Aug and bought the annual passes today!!:cool1: :cool1: :banana: :cheer2:
