Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday DearLuke Happy Birthday to you ​

Wow Dawn great Photo of you two. I thought Ty had alot of hair look at Luke's.
I am loving you reports. Keep them coming.

 

[Lamping3]

Happy Birthday Luke!!

I can't wait for the Nemo Musical! This past weekend Amelia started requesting to watch Finding Nemo...."Memo?" We have probably watched it once to twice daily for the past few days. She really likes "shishies" (fishies) and will make the mouth movements like a fish so I think that the show is a must do for December.

I promise to take lots of pics of the WL for you to see when we go this year in December!

I had to have dental work too before we started trying. I tried many prenatal vitamins that were nasty too....I had morning sickness bad! If you want a good frank/funny read about pregnancy I highly recommend the book "Pregnancy Sucks...What to do when your miracle makes you miserable" It is by Joanne Kimes. It helped me deal with all the "different things" going on with my body in a chatting with your best girlfriend sort of way. Good Luck!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO LUKE! Love the baby pic, he looked like himself even then! You looked really cute in that haircut.

I loved the update! I had no idea the Nemo show is that detailed. I thought it would be hokey, but now I think I'd like to see it.

As for your teeth - you might be fine. I had mine out when i was 19. I was dating my DH then. I took tylenol and let him baby me for one evening, and I was back to work the next day.

I hope you're doing well with the vitamins. Once again, alot of people take them with no probs. I'm excited to see how things go for you. I had a baby the end of Aug - it can be a challenge, but once he was born, I forgot about the heat and swelling!

 

[jordanyosh]

It's technically not his Birthday now...but Happy Birthday Lukester!

Oh and I looking more at your short hair in the pic! It was short, but looked good!!!

 

[tinkgurl]

Aw, I hope Luke had a good b-day! Such a cute pic!

 

[disneybound2010]

Happy Birthday Luke!

 

[thechesters420]

Those are the exact dates we are going too! Love your report, maybe we'll see you then!!

 

[Spartangirl]

Happy Birthday, Luke!!!

Great pic of you two, by the way!

 

[punkin413]

well, i was gonna reply to posts and do an update last night (it's all uploaded and ready to go) but when i came over to the disboards they were down and it said they'd be down until around 3am. we are headed out the door in about an hour for luke's outdoor adventure birthday party in the mountains, so i won't be able to do the update today. maybe tonight? and i will definitely have pictures of luke's birthday party to share later on. anna has my camera (hers is broken) so as soon as i get the pictures off it from her then i'll have those. probably monday or tuesday since they're camping all weekend. have a good saturday!

 

[jwwi]

Have fun at the adventure party, sounds like fun. Happy Birthday to Luke.

 

[punkin413]

hey, guys! i have a question for you all about prenatals. i'm taking neevo right now and they're great. i haven't had any side effects that i can tell. so i called my doctor and she called in the prescription and when i called the pharmacy to see how much they were, they were $54 for a month's supply. they're a "tier 3" medicine on my insurance which means the co-pay is $65. of course they just charge you the full $54 instead of the co-pay. the whole reason i got on ray's insurance (besides maternity coverage) was to take advantage of the co-pays. the tier 1 co-pay is $15 and the tier 2 is $45. i called my doctor to see if they could recommend another kind of prenatal that was cheaper and she wants to look at the list of medications my insurance covers, so while i'm waiting on that list to be mailed to me she gave me 2 more boxes of samples of neevo. anyway, so my question is does anyone have another kind they can recommend to me?

I am so glad the creators of Nemo decided to make the actors such a big part of the show rather than hide them out. Their costumes and expressions are a big part of making the show great.

Just out of curiosity, does Luke call Mr. Ray Mr. Gray???

Not a bird around stands a chance with you, do they?
Poor guy was just minding his business and not bothering anybody.
Beauty is only skin, er... uh, feather deep, you know!
He might be the nicest guy in the world, if you'd get to know him.

Ray's not going to back out on the WL promise and claim he was delirious from exhaustion when he made that claim, is he?

That definitely does give you something to look forward to, so time this little baby right so he/she fits right into the plan!

Of course, I am looking forward to seeing the Jingle Jungle Parade.
You may be posting it while I'm typing this, in which case I'll sound like a dummy if you already have the pictures above this post.

i know! at first i wasn't interested in seeing it but the actors themselves really add so much to the show.

i've never heard luke refer to mr. ray so i'm not sure if he calls him gray or not. he still calls ray "gray" though!

me being nice to a bird stands about as much of a chance of happening as you voluntarily getting on mission space!

no, ray's not backing out. HE KNOWS BETTER!!!!! we were just talking about the trip today on the way to luke's birthday party.

Wow! I really need to figure out this working and dising thing. I am SO far behind on so many TR's and PTR's.
I'm heading over to your NY TR.
Congrats on your new car. Sometimes it's more affordable to replace a car, than to keep fixing an old one. It's very beautiful. Have fun with it.
Good luck with the prenatals. You should get really nice nails and hair from taking them.
And, your safari pics don't look bad at all compared to the way mine turn out. Mine are always blurry! It's like when your looking at them, they are in some kind of code and I have to crack it to determine what amimal I'm looking at.

thanks! the prenatals are going great so far (see above). my safari pics are always bad.....i'm glad i'm not the only one!

Loved seeing the Nemo pictures! I can't wait to see that! It's one of the things we HAVE to see!

thanks! it's really a great show.

I hear ya! I have to include Sept. in there too...personally for me Aug/Sept is our hottest months...but I do understand exactly what you are saying

I bet you'll feel ok to go to the convention. If it's not an ALL day 12+ hr long thing or something. One big suggestion I can make is EAT! Think of soft things you like to keep up your strength. Scrambled eggs, pancakes, steamed broccoli, smoothies, spaghetti, soups....I'll think of more

I bet we have to work that day b/c I don't have many days off between now and the first week of August. But I would love to come and take you and baby you after

CUTE!!!

That looks like the baby...love it!!

That SO sounds like Matt ...he will promise just about anything when he wants to do the opposite of me, but I always make him stick to it

I do wish we could go that same week with you guys....but I know he will be in LA that week

oh, don't you worry! i will stock up on soup and mashed potatoes and oatmeal and yogurt and ice cream before the surgery! ray's taking that day off and it's on a friday so i really hope i'll be okay by sunday to go. if not, i don't have my ticket yet so no biggie.

oh, ray's promised many crazy things in order to get out of something but he's usually pretty good with sticking to his word. boys are so funny sometimes!

i know you've told me but what's going on in LA in december of 2010 that he knows so far ahead? i know it's probably something that happens every year or something. i have a terrible memory about stuff like that!

Yayyyyyyyy!!! My own personal little shout-out!!

Hehee, okay, maybe not.

I love Nemo! Bubbles, bubbles!!

And for staying at Wilderness Lodge next time!! You'll love it!

i love that part of nemo.....so funny!

I haven't had a huge desire to see the Nemo show - but your pictures have changed that!

it's really cute. at certain times of the year they only play it twice a day so sometimes it's hard to catch.

 

[punkin413]

great shots of the Nemo show!!
wow-VWL at Christmas time--how cool

thanks! yeah, i'm excited about VWL! i loved the WL when we saw it in may 2008 so i can't wait.

You have great pictures from Nemo! Most of mine came out all blurry.

I wouldn't want to have my wisdom teeth out without being knocked out either!! I have a hard time going even when I know I'll be in lala land.

Prenatals can really mess you up......all that extra iron...you need a little prune juice to go along with it.

thanks! i have a problem with needles but i know i'm gonna have to get over that soon anyway with having a kid! see above about the prenatals (previous post).

I would have made that deal with Ray also. I would love to stay at the Wilderness Lodge some day.

I know what you mean about needing a break to be by yourselves. We usually go with my family, but in Dec. we went alone, just the four of us. It was different and a lot of fun. I like it both ways, but you definitely need time alone.

i can't wait to stay there! i LOVE that resort. it's nice to have some time alone, even if it's just a few hours one night!

Ohhh what a great deal to make with Ray! WL was gorgeous in April but I've only seen pictures of it around Christmas time and it looks even better! I know what you mean about just needing a break from people too. I remember going on vacation with my best friend in the whole world a few years ago and after like 3 days of constantly being together, we needed a break from eachother.

Your Nemo pictures came out really good! Reading your narration through it made me wanna see it again

yeah, i'm really excited about VWL! thanks about the pictures. such a cute show!

Hey Dawn,

I've sort of turned into a lurker on the DIS but I have been keeping up with your reports! They are all great as usual. Love your new car! I really like the new design of the CRV's and it is on my list of potential cars to buy in the future. But I just paid off my Saturn so I hope to keep that for at least another year. And more congrats on trying for a baby! That is VERY exciting. Best of luck to you and Ray with everything! It stinks about your oral surgery - not sure if you were around on the Peeps thread when I was having dental drama and ended up having my wisdom teeth removed. I only had 2 (on the bottom) and they were impacted and I ended up having deep sedation so I remember nothing after they put the IV in my arm. I was extra super careful about eating the dr. recommended foods for about a week, but I felt fine the next day. A little sore, especially if I moved my mouth in a certain way, but it wasn't too bad. I laid low and enjoyed the percocets, but if I had to go somewhere (especially somewhere fun!), I probably would have been fine with just some tylenol. The week before I was so nervous plus the week or so after I was eating so little that I actually lost close to 15 lbs! Most of it stayed off too once I went back to my usual diet. Something to look forward to - not that you need to lose anything, but everyone loves seeing smaller numbers on the scale, right? Good luck!

hey, shannon! nice to "see" you! thanks for your congrats. i hope i get to lose some weight from the surgery!

Thanks for all the great pics of Nemo. I was at the show in Feb. 08 but since I slept through all but the bubbles I technically have never seen it before Maybe I'll try again.

it's a cute show but that AC really gets to you and is so relaxing!

I am behind! I love love love your car! I want a small suv for my next car.

Good luck to you in your baby ventures! That is so exciting!


I loved Nashville. My cousin and I went for the Hairshow. I loved Tootsie's Bar. We probably had to much fun! We went out at 7pm and didn't get in until 3am.
We only stayed one night I can't wait to go back.

i'm behind on so many TRs. i don't know if i'll ever get caught up! thanks about the car! oh, it's okay to go out like that every now and then! i'm getting to the age when we go out (which happens very rarely) i want to be home by like 1:00 but i used to stay out all night, like not get home until 6:00 a.m. i could never do that now! glad you enjoyed nashvegas.

I love that you are going back in Dec. 2010! And at the WLV no less.

Great Nemo photos. After two trips to WDW, I have yet to see this show. I always get out voted when it comes to watching shows and parades.

And the new car? Very cool, love the color!!!!

i hope you guys end up going back then, too! let me just tell you, i know that we'll be eating at flying fish, boma and tusker house breakfast. besides that i have no idea. if you guys end up going during that time we should plan a meal together!

nemo's hard to catch (and i don't mean because he's a slippery little clown fish!) because they only show it like twice a day. luckily ray doesn't mind the shows because it's a nice break. parades he's okay with as long as he hasn't seen it before. he hates seeing the same stuff over and over again.

thanks about the car. i love it so far!

Your Nemo pics are fantastic. I can't wait to see this show on our next trip. I don't think my camera will do that well w/out the flash.

The pre-natal vitamins are tricky. When I started taking them, I bought the first brand I saw and they were fine. Then I couldn't find them so I bought the huge bottle from Costco because they were cheaper. I didn't really care for them, but I kept going on them...until I actually got pregnant and then I hated them. So I had to switch again. I tried multiple brands and it was always different what made me feel good (or bad) depending on my stage of pregnancy. Isn't that weird?

thanks! it's hard to get decent pictures at nemo. see above (previous post) about the prenatals. i might need some suggestions!

Oh cool new car!!! You go girl!!! You know I can't wait to see your Disney baby! I hope he or she comes sooner than later. Luke is funny.

Love the AK update. Still haven't seen us in the background of any pictures....I keep looking. (Yes, I'm a dork!)

thanks! so far i love it!

i know.....i haven't seen you guys either! only one more AK installment left!

i have to apologize to you for being MIA on your TR. i've fallen behind on a few and i'm hoping to catch up this weekend at some point. i'm sorry!!!!

I would definately wait until after your dental work to get pregnant. I had my wisdom teeth pulled and about 3 months after my teeth were pulled I started to have a lot of pain in the back of my jaw were one of my bottom teethe were. Tirns out that I had a peice of bone move and it had started to stick out of my jaw. It was very painful anyways. I went back to the dentist but by that time I was pregnant and the meds they gave me didn't work so I felt everything they had to do!!! She had to file it down and it was painful beside the fact that I had morning sickness and they had to stop halfway through the procedure so I could run to the bathroom! I didn't make it and they had to clean up the halway. I was so embaresed. They were really good about it told me it had happend before and not to worry about it. She also told me that she had never seen anybody elses bone start to stick out their jaw like that. I also had a tooth that had an extra root so I just have a really odd mouth. So needless to say wait until you are done with your teeth work until you get pregnant!!!!! I also love your cr-v. We are a Honda household here too.

that is crazy about your jaw!!!!! i'm so sorry that happened to you. hondas are the best.....they'll go forever!

NICE ride dawn!!!!!!
and about the prenatal vitamins..wheeeee!!!

thanks!!! it's great so far. and see above (previous post) about the prenatals.

Hi Dawn

Just catching up. Totally cracked me up that Luke ran to your house ! Like someone else said Anna is a great Mom. I remember you commenting on some people treating her badly ( obviously jealous) and that just breaks my heart she's obviously a wonderful person. I know you and Ray are going to be the kind of fun parents that Anna and Chris are.

Your Mr Ray pictures were great he's my favorite in that show and I can never get a good picture. Funny that Anna and Chris got that fastpass picture while Luke was asleep, he couldn't protest that way!

Good luck with the wisdom teeth next month, sounds like it shouldn't be too bad with only one impacted. Sweet of Erica to offer to take care of you I work for a dentist let me know if you have any questions.
Lynn

yeah, luke's one crazy kid! you're right about anna. she's such a sweet, caring, fun person and it's a shame people react with jealousy and nastiness to her. it's really made me see how silly people are. glad you liked the mr. ray picture! erica's a dental assistant so she knows what to expect! i'm sure you know (i can't remember if you're reading our TR or not) but we're "real life" friends too so it wouldn't be like someone i've never met coming to take care of me! i will definitely let you know if i have any questions! no offense but i hate the dentist. no offense to you, too, erica!

Hey Dawn! I just got all caught up and I'm lovin' it. Your AK pics are gorgeous! I also loved the videos of Devine, I've never seen her and she's so cool. Nemo looks like a really fun show too! I can't wait to see pics from the parade and hear about the rest of your night. Congrats on the new car

I started a new pre-trip report since we've made so many changes to the trip. The links in my signature so check it out if you get a chance!

thanks! devine was really cool. we saw her twice that trip which was just awesome. she was on that back pathway between africa and asia. thanks about the car! i will def. check out your PTR!

I had a maroon 2003 CRV and traded it for a Chrysler Pacifica IN 2005...well let me tell you the gas is HORRIBLE in the Pacifica and I cannot wait to go back to the CRV.We even drove our crv from NY to WDW! CONGRATS!

cool! i love both our CR-Vs. they're such great cars. i've had the car a week today and i've only put gas in it twice and it fills up with $30 of plus gasoline.

Congrats on the new car! It is gorgeous!

Luke is hilarous! Pure Entertainment that kid!

Great update too! Very cool you did your own thing for the night! We stayed at WL this last summer when we went to WDW and loved it! Ray is so sweet! WL is gorgeous and a great location! Have fun planning for 2010!
We're not going back to WDW until 2010 either and it may just be a mommy/daughter trip.

thanks! yes, luke is a hoot! he's such a funny kid. i can't wait for VWL. when i saw WL with my own eyes in april of last year i fell in love with it!

Happy Birthday Luke!!

I can't wait for the Nemo Musical! This past weekend Amelia started requesting to watch Finding Nemo...."Memo?" We have probably watched it once to twice daily for the past few days. She really likes "shishies" (fishies) and will make the mouth movements like a fish so I think that the show is a must do for December.

I promise to take lots of pics of the WL for you to see when we go this year in December!

I had to have dental work too before we started trying. I tried many prenatal vitamins that were nasty too....I had morning sickness bad! If you want a good frank/funny read about pregnancy I highly recommend the book "Pregnancy Sucks...What to do when your miracle makes you miserable" It is by Joanne Kimes. It helped me deal with all the "different things" going on with my body in a chatting with your best girlfriend sort of way. Good Luck!

"memo?" so cute!!! be sure to get a times guide at AK because they don't offer the nemo show all day. when we were there it was just twice a day. i can't wait to see your pics! definitely let me know if you're doing a TR! i will remember that book. i love reading so anything to do with having a baby is probably next on my list!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO LUKE! Love the baby pic, he looked like himself even then! You looked really cute in that haircut.

I loved the update! I had no idea the Nemo show is that detailed. I thought it would be hokey, but now I think I'd like to see it.

As for your teeth - you might be fine. I had mine out when i was 19. I was dating my DH then. I took tylenol and let him baby me for one evening, and I was back to work the next day.

I hope you're doing well with the vitamins. Once again, alot of people take them with no probs. I'm excited to see how things go for you. I had a baby the end of Aug - it can be a challenge, but once he was born, I forgot about the heat and swelling!

luke was such a cute baby! that head full of black hair was just so cute. thanks about the haircut. i chopped off all my hair after a bad perm. i would rather have no hair than fried hair!

the nemo show is really cute. the actors are awesome. god to hear about your wisdom teeth experience. i hope i do that well! see above (in a previous post) about the prenatals. so far, so good!

Those are the exact dates we are going too! Love your report, maybe we'll see you then!!

cool! i'm sure i'll do a pre-TR but probably won't start it until next summer sometime. let me know if you do one!

 

[punkin413]

I second that,

Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday DearLuke Happy Birthday to you ​

Wow Dawn great Photo of you two. I thought Ty had alot of hair look at Luke's.
I am loving you reports. Keep them coming.

It's technically not his Birthday now...but Happy Birthday Lukester!

Oh and I looking more at your short hair in the pic! It was short, but looked good!!!

Aw, I hope Luke had a good b-day! Such a cute pic!

Happy Birthday Luke!

Happy Birthday, Luke!!!

Great pic of you two, by the way!

Have fun at the adventure party, sounds like fun. Happy Birthday to Luke.

thanks to all of you for luke's birthday wishes! i'm e-mailing the links to anna right now so she can share them with him. he had a great birthday. his party was "outdoor adventure" themed and we went to unicoi state park. it was really fun - i will share some pics later!

jordan - thanks about the hair! that short hair was a result of a bad perm. i chopped it all off after the one and only time i fried my hair. it was so bad that i decided i'd rather have no hair than sticky hair!!!! i kinda liked it short while i had it that way though.

 

[punkin413]

when i last left you we were just meeting back up with anna, chris and luke to watch the jingle jungle parade at AK (and ray had just promised me that we'd stay at WL on the next trip)! anna had saved us a place near pizzafari (just a little ways down). she had gone to get some food at flametree BBQ but we just weren't hungry at that point. so we got settled in to enjoy the parade while anna, chris and luke ate some grub.

we didn't wait long before the parade started! some of these are mine and some are anna's. i tried to keep them in order but some may be slightly out of order. i'm throwing in some close-ups she took of luke because i think they're just precious.

i love king louie with a banana on his head!

if you've seen the samantha brown disney christmas show then you know that minnie's bathtub smells like hot chocolate when it goes by....and it REALLY does!

this guy was AWESOME! i actually think we saw him two days before in the block party bash at DHS. anyway, today he was the monkey in this parade and he played the part PERFECTLY!!!! he was so good.

there was an older lady in a wheelchair sitting next to me and he came over to her and picked "something" out of her hair and ate it!

by the way, the woman sitting next to me got LOTS of attention (you'll see in the videos below). she was so cute! she was waving to everyone and dancing in her chair....all into it! it was really cool.

continued in next post: http://www.disboards.com/showpost.php?p=32259901&postcount=2116

 

[punkin413]

the beginning of this update is on the previous page.

the tiger's wearing gloves and ear muffs!

donald's boat pumped out snow!

pluto giving me some skin!

i see mickey!

of course i have video! ray took this. i'm sitting to the left of him and the lady in the wheelchair is next to me. you'll see she gets a good bit of attention. and then anna, chris and luke were to ray's right so you see a lot of the characters waving at luke.

watch for king louie and baloo to do the macarena!



the guy driving the hippo was REALLY into it!



my two favorite chipmunkds. then here comes minnie! i didn't smell the hot chocolate at first but then it hit me like a WAVE OF CHOCOLATE!!!! it was awesome.



here's the monkey guy....



ray had to change the tape in the camera so he only caught the end of goofy going by.



here's donald! i wonder if the CM that plays him has a sore neck afterwards? watch how much he wiggles his head around! and look for the snow as he goes by!



here comes pluto! one of my favorites. please excuse my husband for being obnoxious! he says something like, "that's a big girl to be a dancer." then stupid me (who forgot he was taping) said, "yeah it is." i didn't mean that she was fat. but most dancing CMs you see are on the thin side. i was like, "YOU GO GIRL!!!!" i love to see people mix up things a little bit. and of course high-fives from pluto are always a good thing.



bye, mickey!!!!! i didn't think he was ever gonna turn around.



that parade is so cute! i'm glad we saw it. although it's not really that much different from the regular AK parade. they basically just add some jingle bells, fake snow and wreaths and change the music up a little bit and there you have it. still very cute though.

after the parade anna and chris told luke to pick out some mickey ears. he hadn't gotten any yet and we were sitting next to a hat kiosk. this is what he chose. super cool!

we headed towards the park exit with the masses. we had a christmas party to get to!

continued in next post: http://www.disboards.com/showpost.php?p=32259909&postcount=2117

 

[punkin413]

i have to say i was kind of sad to leave this park because i knew we only had the christmas party left and then that would be it....no more disney for me for 2 YEARS!!!! but i put on a happy face because i was hoping the christmas party would be a great ending to our little trip.

i was behind this lady on the way out. why in the world would you wear these shoes to disney? i will never understand.

ray and i were going to take a taxi back to the condo because anna, chris and luke were going to the WL to change clothes and see the decorations. but we had to take the tram back to their car because our change of clothes was there. chris decided to try on luke's hat for kicks.

i don't know what was so funny but luke was having a BLAST walking to the car. he was cracking me up!!!!

this is where we split up for the night. ray and i got our stuff out of their car and we grabbed a tram back to the entrance of the park to get a taxi. no more pictures from us until the next installment. basically what happened is we got a cab, told the cab driver where we were staying and he said, "no problem." well, when we got to the exit of AK he said, "which way?" luckily i kinda remembered how to get back to the condo. anna had been driving the whole time so i wasn't positive but luckily we got back okay. i think the total cab far was like $20 with tip.

we chilled out at the condo for about an hour and then hopped in our car to go back to MK for the party. it was a nice break and i was kinda glad ray made me do it!

back to anna, chris and luke.....

they made their way to the WL after they left us. i can't wait to see this and say, "i'm staying there!"

SUCH pretty christmas decorations! i really wanted to see these myself but i know my day will come.

they explored the resort a little bit before they changed clothes. anna said they loved it!

swimming in december!

luke loved the duckies in the pool.

back inside to change and take some more pictures....

there was a photopass photographer near the tree so anna got some pictures there. they turned out great!

this one is hilarious!

up next...MICKEY'S VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS PARTY!!!!!! get ready for some castle dream lights, erica!!!!!

 

[winkers]

Those pictures of Luke are the best!!

With those big brown eyes and eyelashes that go on forever..........He's going to be a ladie's man.

He looks like someone goosed him in the last picture.

It's fun to see all the details they put into changing it into a christmas parade!

 

[pooh'smate]

Dawn, I am really enjoying your tr. I enjoyed it before but now it is making me even more excited for our trip. We are going the Sunday after Thanksgivingand staying until the next Monday.

 

[xoktenox]

Great update! I loveee love loveee the Jingle Jammin Jungle Parade pics and video! I've never seen the AK parade so it was really cool to see it all Christmas-ed out especially since I want to see it when we're there in December. I really love the pictures of Luke's face too and him going through the parking lot. He's too much

Anna's WL pictures are beautiful too. I say it's definitely one of the best Christmas themed resorts (based on pictures because I've never actually seen them in real life LOL). I can't believe how good they all look after spending the whole day in the park! I think it was Tammy who said something once about looking homeless after a day in the parks...that's what I look like! They look like they just stepped out of their rooms all fresh and stuff
