Morning everyone. Took it pretty easy yesterday, but i'm still having some lower abdomen pain. Blahhh... Other than that though i feel great go figure! hahah I'm up too early though, just couldn't sleep. I wanted to just lay there, but then I had to go to the bathroom, then i was thirsty...then i passed the computer and here I am

Thank goodness it's friday!! Gotta love the weekends!

Hope you all have a good one!!!

Bunchy when are you leaving today??

 

[HERSEY]

Michelle sorry your not feeling very well. Have called the doctor? try laying on your side I forget which side is better maybe Tig will chime in soon and fill us in.

Hi all quick hi and I have to get some work done. Looks like its going to be a beautiful weekend.

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

Morning you! Yes i have called and he said to give it some time, but it sounds just like normal baby movement pain. ( I have an appt next week). I have tried each side and it only works for the moment then it all comes back This kid could actually be crazier than Gabriel

 

[Disneynut71]

Slo- She is a Cavachon puppy-It is a cross between the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and the Bichon Frise.

Well it's the big day today...or should I say tonight the release of the 7th and final Harry Potter book. The kiddies and I will be in Downtown Naperville tonight for the big party. If anyone else will be there let me know maybe we could meet up.

23 days till my next Disney trip. We are doing the Pirate and Princess party. DS will be going as Captain Jack and DD is still trying to decide on which princess. I think Belle but she changes her mind daily.

Well got to get to work have a great day everyone

Morning..

I am working from home today.. TGIF

I need to order water etc from Staples today for delivery to WDW next week and then start on getting things in order.. The boys have finals Wednesday am so they need to focus on that..


Last night was a boy scout budget meeting.. I was going to have all Wednesday night to prepare but Eric and friends ended up not having a ride home from a Carol Stream paintball thingy .. so i had to go there and pick them up, and drive them home in the downpour..

Hi Michelle... how are you feeling today. I was on bed rest for part of the time and had to lay on my left side with Geoff..

Bunchkin glad that Hunter's party was fun adn theat you avoided the downpour..Did the roof do any damage when it hit the neighbors fence?

Tiggerrn2 how did the blood drow go.. or as my kids called it the vampire visit..


So QOTD. Harry Potter.. are you gonna get the book? When? and Where? I am thinking about going to Meijer's for the $12.66 sales from 12 midnight to 6 am.. with $30 additional purchase. Wonder what price Sams and Wal Mart will have?

 

[geffric]

Oh yeah almost forgot is anyone else going to the Doorway to Dreams grand opening on Aug 4th? I will be there.

No I got the invite but we will be at WDW.. so I'll stop in there another time.

I think I might check out that Doorway to Dream at Woodfield in August. I want to learn how DVC works, but I also know that you can buy DVC by resale and it's much cheaper and you can get older DVC properties like Boardwalk, etc. I think if the new tower at the Contemporary is DVC, I might just be very interested.

We own at OKW since '93, I will be more than happy to answer your questions and tell you what our experience has been..

good friday morning chicagoland homies.

 

[Tiggerrn2]

Morning all. Just killing a few minutes until I can hit Southwest for my boarding passes.
DMM - Left side is preferred although either are better than flat on the back. Keep a hand on your abdomen just where the round top (the fundus) is. At your stage of pregnancy now, that should be just above your belly button a bit. Feel there for a while (10 minutes or so) and if you feel it getting tight and then relaxing, those are contractions. Sometimes you may feel pressure at your bladder when that tightens. If you are, call your doctor back and let him know how many of those you feel within an hour. Usually they will want you to come to the office or the hospital if you feel more than 4-6 in one hour. Drink a liter of water too. And be keeping that bladder empty. Take care of yourself.

Would love to join you all at the Doorway, but kids will be still recovering from tonsils then. Blood draw went OK. DS was very brave and did great. DD still full of the drama as always. No good numbing cream for them. They just had to tough it out.

Well, better run. Kids are off to camp and I need to run off and get my last minute trip goodies. DH bought me a new camera!!! I need a SD card for it though since the one they send is only 16M.

I'll check in later.

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

Thanks for the info!!!

Hi Michelle... how are you feeling today. I was on bed rest for part of the time and had to lay on my left side with Geoff..

Hey there

That's what I am trying to avoid is the bed rest, but this pregnancy has been killer Normally it wouldn't be a problem, b/c my mom has more days off than a person out of work But with my dad having open heart surgery and then not able to work since he went with us to DISNEY in MAY, she took a lot fo time off to stay and care wtih him on days I couldn't be there and before they got a nurse. NOW she got called out of town to Vegas for work AND my grandmother in Mexico has been in and out of the hospital...so she is coming home from Vegas and off to Mexico a couple days later SO she has taken off enough time as it is recently So i'm trying to take it reaaallllllyyyy easy Needless to say the kids have been outside a lot while i sit on a lawnchair or we've been painting and coloring and doing table crafts! Easy stuff that is fun too
And unfortunately i've also put on movies every now and then when i want to lie on the couch!!

Okay, my biggest question is there any income tax ramifications or benefits to owning DVC? That's my main concern at this point.

Good morning all!!!!


A good neighbor came by last night to drop off batter for a Amish bread mix.
Has anyone else made this?
You have to let it sit for several days, slightly mixing it each day. And then on the 6th day, I think, you add more ingredients to the mix. Then let it sit some more. Then add more ingredients and then split it up to give to 3 more people. Then you bake it....finally!!!
I hear it's yummy!



Tiggerrn It seems like your more excited about leaving for your vacation now than you were previously!!! YAY!!
Take it easy on yourself!! And have a great time!!



slo I was considering, earlier in the spring, having Hunter wait till next year to start Kindergarten. But I'm convinced he is ready. He is already trying to read! He's a smart cookie!
I hope Steph has a great party!!! And I hope she's enjoying her new doll too!!


geffric No damage was done to the neighbors fence. And I'm sure if there was they would have been over here straight away to let us know!


DMM We are leaving this afternoon at 4pm. Just myself is going to the 7am opening. Then we go back at 11:45am as a group.
I can't wait to see what I can get my hands on!!

When are you leaving to go?





My biggest issue with buying into DVC is not the cost but the fact that your timeshare ownership has an expiration date to it!! No other timeshare out there is the same way!! I don't want to buy something that I can't keep and pass down to my kids. All that money down the tubes, IMO. Nothing against anyone who has ownership of one of course, it's just my opinion.



Got to run!!! Need to get the van checked out before I leave today!!!

Have a great weekend everyone!!!

Hello everyone -
Most of you know that my is expecting our 3rd child. I was hoping for a boy and my wife wanted another girl. Well...It's going to be a ....BOY!!! At first it looked like a girl. The technician said she was 85% sure it was a girl and she did one last swipe and there it was in all "its" glory. She then said "now I'm 100% sure its a boy.
In other news... ABC started running promos durning thier primetime shows for Fat March. I hope its good and I hope everyone watches.

I actually went on the DVC forum to look for this and then forgot. Just stumbled on this Chicago thread. Glad to know when it opens. My DH and I are going to take his mom sometime and hopefully plant a seed..... (well maybe grow something, the seed's been there a while).
