Candy Aisle?

no

I think that the baby diapers and baby food aisle would be more approPIRATE!

As a man you just don't realize that we really don't like the baby food and diaper aisle. We like the aisle with CHOCOLATE!

Ya.............. like the lady in Walmart.

So how is everyone? Over the weekend, our family went to SoCal for DH's side for Christmas. Was nice, but glad to be home.

Alison, I'm about done too. Yay!! The only difference, is that all of my presents are wrapped and hidden. No presents are under the tree until Christmas morning. The only ones that are under it, are the ones going to my Mom and Dad, and few friends. No one is doing the guessing game here. My kids loved it that way. In total awe on Christmas morning! The only presents I have to get done are the aprons I'm working on. Something, or someone is always getting in the way. And I have to make sure no one is going to see any evidence of sewing them too. Oh and I have few things I need for Dave's stocking. That is the hardest part. He already has all the little gadgets he needs.

I get my littlest GS today. So I will be kept busy.

Hope you all have a good day!

hubby said something about wanting a bottle of Obsession, now I need to search for the best deal.

He also aid he wanted nose hair clippers-- I laughed and told him NO WAY. That's a little tooooooooooooooo personal to choose for him .

Went to Mall of America yesterday, not too busy. Took some pics that I will share later.

Off to kick the washing machine, we have two -- one was done and no problems. The other load was sitting and stuck- gave it a kick and it started up again. ummm okay, long as it works.

Now I'm behind on my wash/ dry cycle darn it

Hi Grumpy Pirate.

So I just wanted to tell you guys that on Saturday my mom was at Disneyland and it was way crowded due to the Candlelight Prosessional. So they were heading toward the front of the park right before John Stamos was goingto be reading the Christmas Story and main street was packed and at a complete stand still so they started taking people behind the stores on mainstreet. I guess it was on the side with the Candy Store and they came back out by the Fire Station. Have you ever heard of them doing this?

YEP, they also do that route when the park is closing after Fantasmic and other large crowd situations. I have read from some CM's that it is normal for crowd control to do that so that the people that want to leave can get out. They try and "mask" the backstage area.

(I have taken several backstage tours, and the CM's explained that it is also their "emergency" evacuation route in case of Fire, etc.)

John Stamos... Hubba-hubba!!! Oh wait.. Not the question. Yes, I have heard of them doing this when it gets super crowded. To help ease the traffic jam.

 

[MotoXPrincess99]

Mmmm. My mom brought me back a Mickey peppermint carmel apple from Disneyland.

I was watching a movie on comedy central called Accepted.

Basically a high school grad didn't get into a college, had his buddy create a relistic website for a made up college. Just by clicking "enroll" he got accepted intothe college. They took over an abondoned mental hospital, made it look like a dorm and the parents were so proud to see their son acccpeted into a college.

Well, the website was a littel too realistic.. several hundred people showed up -- all enrolled -- all "accepted".

Bit of creativity , they self taught classes and created their own classes.
And they got accredited.

Which brings me to.... we should set up our own college!

Hyena Uranus Worshippers Institute
HUWI!

And we can teach couponing.
Staley can teach the fine art of sporking
Dizzy can teach us all to
Alex can show us how to take boys off of swing chandeliers..

So many possibilities..

Where do I apply?

I was on again today, this time J watched it whiel we ran out to get a new printer-- other one died.. grrr.

One of the busy times we were at DL, they directed the flow of human traffic from the parade gate on Main Street (next to the hat shop) popped out by Space Mountain. CMs waved at us as the crowd straggled thru backstage.

I got stuck on Splash once "101" , we were the next to go down the big drop. Walked down the emegency stairs within the ride, back stage and wrapped around to the large gate that is next to the Pooh shop. It was right before Christmas.. they were trimming the branches of the large Main Street tree to get it ready.

 

[staley7580]

The one thing tat scares the pants off me.. Is the thought of getting stuck on Screamin. We were there last Christmas, and the ride broke down.... One of the cars was almost to the top of the loop. How in the crap hole are you supposed to get out of that????

They have brake areas. They can release one by one to clear cars individually from the brake zones.
Unless there is some bizarre system failure, cascade failure.. it should be relatively easy to "101" the coasters.
There was one time that Screamin had a cascade failure, brake zone failed to stop a train from hitting another. In that case they had to bring out fire safety crews to remove people.


The "hammer" ride at Mall of America failed once.. people stuck UPSIDE DOWN for hours!

 

[funnygarcia]

Hey did you see there are codes for CVS? If you have a Mastercard, it will be $25 off $50 and free ship. I'm thinking diaper stock up.

I would poo in my britches. But I am a giant wimp..

We dont have a CVS... I guess that doesnt matter if I order online.. huh? I dont have a Mastercard either.. We have a Visa.

Geesh. We were just talking about how we havent bought hardly anything for the babies yet. The three carseats we got ended up being maybe one.. But I think that might get chucked too. The others were broken! THis one is missing something.. Its not a vital piece, but still. its missing! So basically... we have some clothes. After Christmas we are going to have to start really stocking up.

I have big plans to hit costco with our tax return.. Diapers, and a few cans of formula.. In case nursing doesnt work out well.

The codes are an extra $10 off with a Mastercard. You can still get $15 off.. but it might not be as good of a deal.

Bummer on the car seats. Time to call up your mom to help
I would not buy the formula until you need it.. I know my sis had to get a specialty formula for an increased calorie amount (NeoSure) to help him put on pounds. You never know with allergies .. etc...

You can sign up for samples, Enfamil will send you the ready to feed little bottle type. Enough to cover a day or two. No money lost that way .

Invest in a nursing stool, that was the best thing I bought when I had Noah-- wish I had found it with Justin. It angles your feet enough to make a good "lap" and less strain on your back. Nursing pillow is a must too-- I made do with a flat pillow but in your case invest in the wide flat shelf type (hear Boppy wasn't ideal for twins).

I know that through the pediatrician I can get a free case of Enfamil.. With Enfamils twin program. So I am l hoping we can get that..

There is a special pillow for nursing twins, its like a monster boppy. I will probably get that. I just need to start doing SOMETHING. It seems like they will be here before I know it, and we dont have anywhere for them to sleep! Frelan says thats no big.. They can just sleep in the bed with me. I dont know.. When I think about it, I get overwhelmed. So I prefer to pretend nothing is happening.
