Can we please get to Disney! UPDATE 6/4 HOLLIES GRADUATION VIDEO

[xoktenox]

That stubborn little baby! The suspense is killing us all Heather, can't you tell!?!

 

[DisneyJo]

Definitely sounds like a girl

 

[hlrababy]

Stubborn peanut is right. Can't believe she/he was not being cooperative. Doesn't the peanut know you have devoted fans who want to know???

I know, I am telling you!!!!!
Of course it knows..I think its inside me laughing and pointing at me!!

That stubborn little baby! The suspense is killing us all Heather, can't you tell!?!

I know, I know!! lol!!!!!
Shoot, I am so ready to know in case I need to start getting out Hollie's 18 containers of clothes!! haha

Definitely sounds like a girl

We are quite stubborn....well I know I am!!

 

[CanadianWDWfan]

AWWW! Your baby is wanting to be a surprize.... sorry, you couldn't find out.

I can sympathize with you, I didn't know what Lexi was until she was born.

It was torture for me. I am such a planner. I couldn't put the nursery together until the last minute. I sent my DMom out the day she was born to buy 'girly' things....all I had was 'boy' clothes from Aaron.

I'm sure you will find out next time. She/He is teaching you to be more patient.....

I think you should wait and decide later if you want to do the beach weekend.
You may enjoy the relaxation in the sun.

Hollie's new pics are great! She looks like she really enjoys it. They are all very cute!
Her dress is very pretty and the sassy outfit is ALL HER! Just perfect!


I saw a tee today and thought of you....it said " I kissed a vampire and I liked it!"

 

[jordanyosh]

I say it's a boy...cuz I am one....at least last time I checked..

Hope the baby is healthy

 

[WrightFamily06]

Awe back at Hollie she's such sweetheart !

Your baby is a girl (IMO) they always like to keep there legs closed and touch all over there face like there putting on make-up !

LOL!! I know...stubborn little thing!!! I have an idea of what it probably is...but I want to make sure!

Oh my goodness...you had to wait to do your nursery after the baby was born?? Whoa!!

Yes, the patient thing will be wonderful...I am so impatient!! haha

LOL!! She loves getting her picture made!! She goes all model when they start clicking away!!

OMG....I have to have that shirt!!!! Where did you find it? I still have my "I'd go pale for Jasper Hale" shirt....awwwww Jasper!

I say it's a boy...cuz I am one....at least last time I checked..

Hope the baby is healthy

LOL!!!! That is too funny!!!!

Aww, thank you so much Jordan!!! As long as the baby is healthy...that is all I ask for!

Awe back at Hollie she's such sweetheart !

She loves sending you all some smileys!

lol!!! I love the idea of the makeup...Hollie loves makeup so if this is a girl...they both will be like mother like daughters!!

I got a little news...Hollie has decided that she DOES NOT want to play ball anymore. On the last practice (last Saturday) it was 32 degrees outside and she was so cold. She started crying saying she didn't want to be out there that her hands were cold. Well, I put her gloves on (she already had a turtleneck, hoodie sweatshirt, long underware and sweat pants on). I just dont' like the fact they make them practice at 9 in the morning and 6:30 at night when its cold. I wish they would have their practices later on in the day when its not cold! I think she is done with being out there and being cold.
They have a practice game this Monday so I told her that she would be playing against another team and if she didn't like it, she didn't have to play anymore. I just don't want to be pushy and make her do a sport or an activity she doesn't want too. I really, really want her to give it a chance, but I don't want to make her do it.
So...we will see how it goes!

Oh, poor Hollie. Nobody wants to be freezing cold! Are they any other activities in your area? My 3 are in ballet and for us it works well. And it's inside! Is she interested in anything else? Maybe if you tell her that in ballet, you get to wear make up for the recitals!

I understand your not wanting to be pushy too. My middle DD8 did horseback riding for a year. Then this past December she started crying and told me she doesn't like it anymore and hasn't for a while! I was very surprised and asked her why she didn't tell me sooner. She said her grandparents would be disappointed since they're HUGE horse fans! I had no idea she was feeling that way and felt terrible. So I asked her what would she like to do and she said ballet. Her younger and older sister are in ballet so I think that had something to do with it! Now she's happy as a clam.

Hope Hollie's game goes well on Monday then! Maybe it'll be warm up for her.

Guess what I watched last night? Again! I'll give you one hint...'Don't you do that Rose, don't you say your goodbyes!' And here's a link that I think you'll appreciate! And here I thought I was obsessed with Titanic! It had me laughing!

Well.......we went to the doctor and we were actually there for over 2 hours! Ugh!!! The nice lady called us back to do the sonogram and............our peanut is very, very stubborn!!!! She thought she could get right under the baby that way. Well....peanut is S T U B B O R N!!!!


Hollie said that she wants to pick a valentine smiley for everyone. She also wants to say that she sends you all heart strokes (I have NO CLUE) and for everyone to have a good day!

vh

I always love your smiley messages, Hollie!

I've always heard people say if they couldn't tell right at first, theirs ended up being girls. It's anybody's guess at this point, though.

I think you have the right attitude.

She's so young. I think they start too little these days. If they want to, fine, but if they don't, let them go home and play with their dolls and cars and puzzles and bake cookies with Mommy and just be little kids while they can. Organized sports will be there when/if they get ready.

 

[Goofy22]

Heather,
I fianlly caught up! The pictures of Holly are too cute! Love the Dresses but the Zebra dres sis too cute! She looks so grown up on the pictures!
I can't believe that the baby didn't let you see! Hopefully you will find out next time!

We actually tried to get her to do dance one time and she was like, "No way!! I am not getting up in front of those people!" lol!
She is gonna be in a play at our local theater in August....The Wizard of Oz. Its all kids and young teens. The lady who is running it is making a special "acception" for Hollie since she knows me. The age was for 6 to 14. So, we told Hollie she could either be a munchkin or flying monkey...and well, do you want to guess what she picked?? The flying monkey!! lol!

She told us she might go tomorrow so we will see!

Oh no way!! I think I am about to watch it now!! lol!!

OH MY GOSH!!! I laughed and laughed at that webpage!!! LOL!! I guess you can say I am obsessed with that movie!! lol

I always love your smiley messages, Hollie!

I've always heard people say if they couldn't tell right at first, theirs ended up being girls. It's anybody's guess at this point, though.

Awwww, that made Hollie smile and she said, "Tell her I appreciate her!" lol!! She is going through a stage right now where she loves to say appreciate!

I think you have the right attitude.

That is so true! I have seen so many kids I played ball with when I was younger that their parents made them play! They grew up hating it! If that is what she wants to do...then we will let her play! If not, we can stay home and she can play in her playhouse, on her trampoline, or swing set. We already know she loves to cook and bake, so if she wants to be the next Paula Deen....then we will love it!

Heather,

Yay Colleen!!! lol!

Aww, thank you so much!!!

Hopefully next time the little peanut will show whatever it has off!!

 

[hlrababy]

Okay so I finally thought I would do our last day in Gatlinburg so that I can get started with the MVMCP!! Yahoo!!!

We got up on Saturday morning and there was still some snow on the ground. Now I hate driving in snow!! I get scared and spooked really easily!
We decided to go get some breakfast after we got up and got dressed!

Oh, this was Hollie the night before...she must have been tuckered out!

This was outside our balcony

Getting in the truck and of course, Hollie wanted to throw snowballs! lol

On the way to breakfast

Then here she is at breakfast!

After eating we decided we were gonna go ride the chair lift and then go to the Hollywood Wax Museum. So, we parked and headed towards the chair lift!

Here are my two favorite people in line!

Here we are on our way up!!

Right as we got to the top, they took our picture. Well, Hollie got a little upset once we were almost there. We explained to her that we had to jump out of the chair and get out of the way fast so that we could get out of its way. After telling her that, this was our picture:

continued in next post

 

[hlrababy]

After we got off, we walked around a few stores and looked around a bit. We asked Hollie if she wanted to go to the wax museum and she said no...she wanted to go back to the hotel and build a fire! lol!
By this time it was around 11:30 and we knew once we went back to the room, it would be a while if and when we got out later that day. So, we decided on an early lunch at Bubba Gumps!

Here is Chad:

Here is me and my sweet girl!

Hollie enjoying her lemon up freeze! lol!

Hollie outside the restaurant

I wanted to go in this store baaaad, but its probably a good thing I didn't! They had a huge selection of Twilight stand ups!! lol!

Well, we got back to the room and just rested and I packed up some!
We got up the next morning and headed on out. We saw all of this when we left!

Then after we were on the road at least a good 45 minutes, I realized I left my pillow!!! Ugh!!! I take it everywhere because its so comfortable and I love it! Oh well...I am sure it got thrown away!

But....I turn around and see this:

wait a minute...you can see it now!

Apparently Hollie was in her "Aunt Dolly" mood again. It might be because she saw that I bought this:

Yes....a Dolly pop!! lol

Here are a few more pics on the way out of Pigeon Forge and Sevierville

I can't wait for this!!

It actually snowed a bit on the way home in Tennessee and Georgia!

So...that is it on the Gatlinburg mini trip! We did a few things and missed out on a few we wanted to do. But, when you have a kid who LOVES hotels you usually stay in the room quite a bit!

Up next...our MVMCP!!! YAY!!

 

[punkin413]

hey, i bought my niece madison that sweater for christmas. tell hollie she has excellent taste.

cute picture!

that chair lift looks cool. i'm trying to decide on what we're going to do when we go in may. that is on my list of possibilities! hopefully it will be much warmer then! by the way, what route do you guys take? i think we just take highway 441 through cherokee and into gatlinburg.

 

[buzz for boys]

wow finally all caught up !! Hollie is just so adorable. Cant wait to hear what the bump is going to be and of course looking forward to mvmcp
Take care x

 

[xoktenox]

That picture of all of you on the chairlift is great! Even if Hollie was a little upset Sounds like you had a nice relaxing trip

Good luck with Hollie at the ball game later! Isn't it a little warmer there today than last week? Maybe that will help!

 

[WrightFamily06]

Poor Hollie that is really cold weather for the little ones to play ball in , can't say I blame her . DS6 tee-ball doesn't start for about another week or two here, seems to me they start a little early around your parts . I know what you mean though about not wanting to push her DD did Ballet last year and did OK but then this year she was just not into it at all so I had to make a hard decision and pull her out for a year even though I really wanted it to work out .

Great pictures of last day of your mini vaca The family ones turned out really good on the lift even though Hollie was a little upset ! Love the Dolly Lollipop and Hollie's impression , too cute ! We love Aunt Dolly around this house too !

 

[CanadianWDWfan]

It's Monday night....did she decide to play? Go Hollie!

If ball isn't her thing, she will find something else.

Gaitlinburg looks so pretty.

I havn't been on a chair lift since my teen years, I used to down hill ski.
I remember being so nervous the first time on a chair lift, I crossed my fingers that I didn't fall.

A T-Bar is worse, it drags you up the hill and you have to resist the urge to sit or you'll fall and they shut down the lift....very embarassing....not that this happened to me or anything.....

sorry you forgot your pillow. I'm sure you can find one that is just as special.

Dolly pop!

 

[jordanyosh]

I want a dolly pop!
