Another Unofficial Chatterbox Thread- Everyone is Welcome!

[funnygarcia]

For being low season
It's not that low in crowds
The birthday deal has made a huge rebound in numbers, it's not crazy busy but a lot more than I expected. High capacity rides are 5 to 15 wait at most. Popular rides 20 to 30 at the very most.

Lots of consruction walls in both parks, exciting to see new changes being made with a tiny bit of bottleneck hassles in key areas ( like main street)

Off to bed

OMG STALEY!!!

I'm so happy for you and your family! Welcome babies!!

Bernice- I had a lot of fun today and it was great seeing you. My feet and legs are sore and I'm so exhausted. I came home and took a shower and about to hit the hay. I think I'll read some of Inkheart first (if I can keep my eyes open).


I hope everyone had a great day.

Many schools in AZ start their 2 week spring break tomorrow so maybe some people jumped the gun. CA is a hugely popular place to go on spring break here. Plus the birthday thing is cool. I really wanted to go for Jake and Jeff's birthday. being on the same day think how cheap that would have been for us!

 

[funnygarcia]

wow two birthday freebies would be an excellent deal for a family
Hopefully they will continue the deal into next year

Poor pix has to work today , at least it's Friday

 

[funnygarcia]

CONGRATULATIONS STALEY!!!

How cool they have different bdays!!!


I actually have to confess, I was on the computer, but not intending on coming to this site - we are super busy and about to leave town. I was trying though to get the address for where we are going, so I was googling the science fair, and actually found a link to our thread

 

[funnygarcia]

Too funny! The hyenas have been google d

 

[MotoXPrincess99]

Good Morning!

 

[eatmypixiedust]

Hello Hyenas,

Wow, one day from taking off from work and all heck breaks loose! Why is it that my customers wait until I'm out of the office to drive me nuts?

I'm happy it's Friday though. My bf watched Watchmen with one of his co-workers after work yesterday (there was a show at midnight). He told me it was the worst movie he had ever seen. I actually wanted to see it but he said it was really really awful and horrible. I'm surprised he didn't walk out from the movie. I read the paper today and it got 1 1/2 stars out of 4 stars. Must have been really terrible.

This morning I got Jack In the Box for breakfast- their sausage egg and cheese croissant is awesome. Oooh...Farmer's Market is today. Maybe I will stop by after work and get some fruit and cucumber yogurt with pita chips from the hummus guy!

Bernice- I had lots of fun with you. My feet and legs were so sore last night but they feel a lot better today. I waited a long time to get on the tram. People were pushing and shoving and fighting to make their way on the tram. Some even tried to squoosh 5 people in one row and it just was not possible and the CM made them get off. I think I waited for 20 minutes just to board.

It's nice and sunny today. I'm glad it's not raining anymore. Not sure what my plans are for the weekend but I hope you guys who are attending the ladies trip today have a great time. Take lots of pics!

I have some photos of me and Bernice from yesterday. I'll upload them later if I get a chance.

Wow! Really slow day on the thread. Seems everyone is busy having babies or going to DL. Well I guess when you think about it, what else is there to do?

 

[MotoXPrincess99]

Good morning! I'm walking down Main Street. Its a little bit cool but it doesn't look like its going to rain so that's good. Have a great day!

Good Morning Hyenas,

When I got off of work yesterday I made a spur of the moment trip to DTD. The traffic was horrible on the 5 fwy and it took me over 2 hours to get down there. I decided to try calling Melody and luckily I was able to reach her but we had trouble hearing each other. She was headed to a DVC tour with some of the other ladies and so I gave her my phone # so she could call me. I was starving and it was already 8pm so I decided to grab a bite to eat. I parked in the DTD parking lot and got a good/close spot. I wanted to eat at Croc's by the DL Hotel pool but it was closed. I decided to try Hooke's Point since I had never eaten there before. I sat at the bar area and just had water and a salad (caesar dressing and shaved parmasean cheese) and their scallops. The food was really good and surprisingly cheaper than Blue Bayou. They also give discounts for Premium AP's which helped.

After dinner I called Melody and she told me that they had just ended the tour and were headed towards Napa Rose for drinks. I headed over there and had never been in Napa before. It's really nice inside and I didn't know that they served desserts and cheeses. I didn't order any drinks but I did sit and chat and met some really nice people. All the ladies were really nice, a few I recognized and remembered from last year's trip. It was good to see Melody too. We chatted and just hung out at Napa and then we left around 11 or 11:30pm. It was a bit odd that Napa's bar stops serving drinks at 10pm on a Friday. Not sure why. Some of us were all puzzled by that. The ladies headed back to the hotel and I had to head the other way back to my car. I hugged Beth and some of the other ladies and hugged Melody and took off home.


*Bernice- Beth said that she saw you and I walking past Rancho del Zoccalo on Thursday. She said she was by Riverbelle and tried to call our names but we didn't hear and were too far away. I think we were headed towards the restrooms or Fantasyland, can't remember. It would have been cool to see them that day though.

*Sarah- I tried to call you last night but wasn't able to reach you. We were all wondering where you were and if you wanted to join us at Napa Rose. Hope you have fun today

Hey ladies!! Im HOME! And I have BABIES!!! Frelan was posting from the hospital from his PSP. It was CRAZY times!! Here is the scoop.

Tuesday I went to the Dr. and she said I was already a 3, and stretched me. Then told me to walk, walk walk.. and come back the next day. So we took the kids to the park, and I was all over that big toy. I looked a SIGHT Im sure. Anyhow.. My mom kept the kids overnight, and Frelan and I were like NOW WHAT??? We have never been without our kids! So we ate dinner and went to bed. Living the high life, I tell ya! The next morning I woke up with TONS of pressure in my pelvis, and I called my mom and told her I thought today was the day!! Frelan and I went to Walmart and picked up some hospital snacks, and headed off to the Dr.s office. She checked me, and I was a 4! And my contractions were coming every 5-10 minutes. She wanted me to get them a little closer together, and head on in! So we walke some more, and that was it. I was in full on labor! We stopped for dinner, and headed off to the hospital! We checked in, and got situated.. They hooked me up, and away I went! I was a 5 when they broke my water, so they told me I should go ahead with my epi.. So I did. they gave me a little pitocin.. and I fell asleep. They woke me up an hour later, and I was a 10!! Time for babies! it is a little disorienting to wake up and be told to push.

Anyhoo.. I push once or twice, and little boys heart rate started to drop, s the doc vacuumed him out, reached up and pulled out little girl. It was very fast. Really. They woke me at 11:30 to check me and I had babies at midnight. They are gorgeous.

All day Thursday we had people in and out of the room doing all kinds of testing on them. ALL DAY. They had low blood sugar at birth, so they had to get tested every couple of hours.. Then Jasmine failed her hearing test.. 3 times. All kinds of other stuff going on because they were early. Car seat test, Umm.. I dont know.. Im still a little out of it. I feel like I got hit by a truck. I guess squirting out two babies will do that to ya.

Nursing is going VERY WELL with Jasmine. She is doing KILLER! Greedy, hungry little thing. Vincent.. not so much. The lactation consultant isnt hopeful for him. his mouth is very small.. to small for my nipple. Plus, until my milk comes in.. there just isnt enough to feed them both.

They are both SUPER healthy, and wonderful!! CUTE too! Jasmine looks just like Mikalah.. JUST LIKE her! Vincent looks like Mr. Magoo. I LOVE it! He is my grumpy old man, and I swear.. I could just eat him up! Pics in the next post!!!

[sameyeyam]

Awwww Megan. You have such an adorable family. I just love the pics of A&M holding V&J. Sounds like things went pretty well. Bummer than Vincent isn't nursing well...my DD was like that, had trouble latching on, was getting hungry so DH finally at Day 5 gave her a bottle and she sucked it dry. Some babies just don't do well with nursing, all you can do is try.

CONGRATS!!!!

 

[XTinabell]

Oh Megan, you're babies are perfect! They are so beautiful and small, I'm so thrilled for you. Keep the pictures coming!

 

[MotoXPrincess99]

Megan! Your kids are all so cute! I'm glad everything went well.

 

[staley7580]

Thanks guys!!! We love them!!
