[TarzansKat]

Oh, TIM!!!!

So much happy news, so wonderful!!!!!!!!!

I had a feeling when you said something about not going in October that maybe there was a baby on the way!!!!

I am so excited for you and your sweet family, congratulations. And I finally know someone who is having a boy! I have four nieces, so this is just thrilling.

I'm gushing, I apologize. So exciting.

Enjoy your trip, and best wishes to Mel. Sick and pregnant is no fun!

 

[Emma's Dad]

WOW! Congratulations, Tim!! That's awesome news! I can only imagine how hard it was to keep to yourself!

 

[DisDadDoc]

While we were on Juliana's WISH trip, Melody wasn't feeling herself. After a trip to Walmart and a test, we found out that Melody is pregnant! Her due date is August 13 which was the day of Juliana's last chemo treatment.


AND we are having a boy!!!!!

Congrats, Tim and Melody! Fantastic news!

Before I continue on my TR, I haven't been totally honest with you all. Well not that I haven't been honest it is just that I have been keeping a few things from you. Back when we received Juliana's dates for her trip, we asked if we could extend her trip so we could fit in some time to visit Melody's grandfather in Florida. Mel's grandmother passed away last summer and her grandfather is basically by himself. CT MAW doesn't allow extensions so we started thinking if it was possible to fly down and visit him. After going back & forth we said lets do it.


In the meantime our friends (Dave & Branda), who we went with to Disney last year and live in Indiana, were planning a trip and they were going to go in May. Well they changed their dates to........


While this was going on, other friends of ours were thinking about a possible trip too. They have 2 girls (6) (8) I am the godfather to the 8 yr old and Melody is the godmother to the 6 yr old. They made up their mind and were going.


SOOOOO, what we planned was flying to Tampa, visiting with Mel's grandfather for 4 days, then driving to Disney and checking into POP for 6 days, then flying home.


Our friends Dave & Branda rented a house because Dave's parents are going with them. Our other friends have a linked reservation with us and are staying at POP also.


All this is happening on SUNDAY!!!! March 6th we leave CT at 8am!!!!!!! And we will be in the MK on March 11th for Juliana's 5th Birthday!


There are a few people who know about this trip and I even have a DIS meet or two set up.


I've been trying my hardest to finish this TR before we left but it isn't going to happen. I PROMISE once I return I will finish this report (and probably start another one LOL)

If this wasn't enough info for all you to absorb... there is more.

While we were on Juliana's WISH trip, Melody wasn't feeling herself. After a trip to Walmart and a test, we found out that Melody is pregnant! Her due date is August 13 which was the day of Juliana's last chemo treatment.


AND we are having a boy!!!!!


Melody has been doing and feeling well. She came down with a stomach bug yesterday and we are hoping that Juliana & I don't catch it before we board a plane in 3 days!!!!!!


I thought about doing a PTR but this TR has taken up most of my time. I will post updates to FB and if you want to be friends let me know. I know a lot of you understand why I didn't mention the baby stuff earlier... thanks for your understanding. I will say that all of this news was VERY hard to keep to myself.

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!! SO HAPPY FOR YOU ALL!!!!!

That is awesome news!!!! When will you be in Disney until? Maybe we will run into each other????

I am so happy for you guys about the baby!!!! This is the 3rd pregnancy I have heard of & you are all due in August!!! August 16, August 19 & you guys on August 13..... There must of been something in the air in the month of November

Awesome news!!! Congrats again..... Send happy, healthy thoughts to Melody!!!!!

 

[Minnie&Nana]

Could the new be any better???? First, Juliana's tests all good....

.....then the surprise Disney trip you dropped on us........

....... AND A BABY BOY on the way!!!!!

That's a whole lot of exciting news for us to absorb!!!

So, so happy for you all - glad Melody is feeling well (other then the stomach bug, which hopefully doesn't last long and skips Ana and you. Fingers crossed).

Okay - you have 2 days for a PTR!!! AND another TR when y'all get home.

CONGRADULATIONS ​

How exciting. Enjoy your trip.

 

[stopher1]

CONGRATULATIONS Tim &Mel!! That's SO very nice!!

 

[that's nice]

Congratulations!!!!! A sweet baby boy to join your family!!!!!!!!!!

how wonderful, is Juliana excited??? hope Mel feels better! and a bonus trip to Disney

I am soooooo happy for you all....is there going to be a little Timmy? Can't wait to tell Megan in the morning!

Have a wonderful trip, make sure Mel takes it easy!!

Big for you all!

Thank you! Juliana is very excited!!! She was a little sad when she found out it was a boy but she go over that in about 1 minute. Then she told us to name him Peterson!

Congratulations Tim & Mel! Since the test at WDW was positive, you absolutely MUST nickname him "our little souvenir"

Thank you! ... well he wasn't conceived there but I guess we could anyway.

I had a feeling something was up back on 2/26, when you posted this on my TR:


When vs if. Very interesting choice of words!

Congrats again!

I've been writing like this for a while now..... LOL

No one has questioned me on it so I kept going with it... and laughing every time.

Oh exciting news! Disney and a baby! Congrats!

Thanks!!!!!!!

Thats wonderful! The only thing better than having a child, is having two!

Thank you! I wonder how it is going to be with them 5 years apart. We keep telling Juliana she is going to have to change diapers. She doesn't like that too much.

Congratulations Tim & Mel, and big sister Juliana!

Thank you Glen!

Ok, I found your TR about a week ago and read the whole thing in 1 day. Yeah, I've really enjoyed it. Ana is a very lucky girl in so many ways.
After another sleepless night with my princess teething and congested(she's 15months), I was thrilled to turn on the computer this AM and read your exciting news. Even with all the crankies, their is nothing like the love for your children. AND another Disney trip. Life is Good. I'm guessing you are probably looking forward to doing all of the pirate and other boy stuff at Disney as much as I am looking forward to the princesses. It's Disney through a whole other set of innocent eyes.

Congrats!

You picked an exciting time to start reading!!!

I hope your DD is feeling better.. I remember those nights. UGH!

I dressed Juliana today, so she has on a track suit and a pink Yankees baseball cap!

How awesome!! Congratulations!! I bet Juliana is excited!

Thank you!!!! Super excited!

Tim,

That's a TON of great news! Have a great time on the trip!


And


CONGRATULATIONS!!

Thanks Mark!

Totally understand why you didn't say anything before. I hope everything goes smoothly and we'll look forward to meeting him!

Thank you. {man hug}

 

[tinytreasures]

Congrats to your whole family.
Have a great trip

 

[mommy2mrb]

Thank you! Juliana is very excited!!! She was a little sad when she found out it was a boy but she go over that in about 1 minute. Then she told us to name him Peterson!

Peterson huh ...that's cute, I guess you could call him Petey!!!

told Megan this morning, she's happy for you all! she said Juliana will be a GREAT Big Sister and now she will be able to teach her little brother all about Mickey!

 

[that's nice]

Congrats Tim, Mel and Juliana. What great news.

Thanks Pat!

Great news about the baby too! j/k How great that you get to extend your trip after all, even it is a few months later.

I picked up on the son comment too but figured I may have missed or it was meant to be "eventually", not like in 5 months.

I've been dropping all kinds of hints some about the baby but mostly about the trip.

So I am way behind and have to go back and catch up on your TR updates, but I did read your real life update! CONGRATULATIONS! That is so exciting and couldn't happen to a sweeter family. Juliana is going to be a fabulous big sister!

Thank you!

And insanely jealous that you will be escaping the cold and snow for another trip to Disney and warm weather!

I can handle 80's! I hope the weather is nice on Friday though. Last year, on Juliana's birthday, it poured on us.[/QUOTE]

OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS!!!

You truly almost gave me a heart attack!! Surprise visit to Disney, and a NEW BABY????

LOL Sorry, I don't want to be responsible for that!

Congratulations to your entire family! I am so happy for you, Mel, and Ana!! I can only imagine how excited she is to have a baby brother on the way!

Thank you! She is very excited!

That is simply FANTASTIC news!! Congratulations! I bet Juliana is thrilled to become a big sister. I think another celebration is in store on this last-minute Disney trip! (And could there be a more perfect due date?!)

Happy for your family.

Thank you!

It is so weird how Mel's due date is 8/13. Makes you think.

Well, I knew about the trip for a couple of months, no point in congratulating you on that. But I didn't know about the baby. I cried when I read the news (and you know why). I am so happy for you guys. Juliana is going to have a "little prince" for a brother. How wonderful.

Thank you!

Now I will know what it is to have a boy in the house.... you want to tell me about that sometime?

Congratulations on expecting a baby boy!!! How exciting! I bet Juliana is so excited to be a big sister!

Thank you!!! She is very excited! She has even been picking out names and clothes for him.

I can't believe you're leaving for a WDW trip this weekend! (And meeting your friends from Indiana - they must be great people because it's a great place to live! ) Have a blast!

this is a 1/2 family trip and a 1/2 fun trip.

Is Indiana that great?

And I have to comment on your last trip update . . . I love the picture of Juliana in her Speedway card turning around to show you her driver's license! Too cute!

She was so happy to have her license, she just HAD to show it to me!

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What exciting news!!!

Have a fantastic time on your trip! What a great place to spend Juliana's birthday!!!

Thank you! It will be nice to get out of this weather for a few days!

 

[that's nice]

Oh, TIM!!!!

So much happy news, so wonderful!!!!!!!!!

I had a feeling when you said something about not going in October that maybe there was a baby on the way!!!!

See, dropping hints all over the DIS!

I am so excited for you and your sweet family, congratulations. And I finally know someone who is having a boy! I have four nieces, so this is just thrilling.

I'm gushing, I apologize. So exciting.

Enjoy your trip, and best wishes to Mel. Sick and pregnant is no fun!

I was prepared for them to say it was a girl, I was shocked when they said boy!

She is feeling 90% better today and is running around getting some last minute things together.

WOW! Congratulations, Tim!! That's awesome news! I can only imagine how hard it was to keep to yourself!

Thanks Don! Yes, it was VERY hard!

Congrats, Tim and Melody! Fantastic news!

Thank you Chris!!!!

I think I am all out of secrets now!

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!! SO HAPPY FOR YOU ALL!!!!!

We are hoping for that too. We are very nervous that Juliana or I am going to get sick.

Mel is doing ok... about 90% back.

Okay - you have 2 days for a PTR!!! AND another TR when y'all get home.
