DDA Chapter 6

[lovesdumbo]

So we are changing our dates.

Jeff thinks it will be cooler and less crowded in Sept. We thought about going for our Anniversary but free dining stops on the 20th. Our Anniversary is on the 28th.

We are now leaving the house on the 13th driving to Houston to see an Astros game at 6pm. after the game drive to the other side of Houston. Stay overnight at a hotel, get up around 5am and head to Disney. Arrive late on the 14th stay thru the 22nd and head home. Thinking of doing MNSSHP on the 16th.

How does this sound?

I think the crowds will be a smaller in September but I don't think it will be much cooler. Sorry we won't meet you.

Bernadette - your sewing projects look great! And, no... I don't think Lizzy is too old... did you ask her?

Lizzy LOVES that fabric. I think she's having a hard time seeing it as the dress but I know she'll love it.

​

Bernadette, your becoming a sewing junkie like me! Everything looks great! I have a Lightning McQueen outfit to make for Leighanna yet too! I really like how yours turned out!

Off to get Leighanna ready for school.
Leighanna is having issues with some older kids on her bus, so I have opted to drive her to school, and pick her up. She is starting to get anxiety attacks, and she is making herself sick just thinking about riding the bus.
She used to love the bus, but all it takes is a few rude kids, who like to pick on little ones to ruin the whole experience!

Thanks! You have inspired me so much!!!!!

Poor Leighanna! We are lucky in that its just K/1/2 on Joe's bus and 3/4/5 on Lizzy's bus. I'm not looking forward to the 6 to 12 bus though.

Bernadette,
Great job on the kids outfits!!!

Thanks!

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work I go today....I wonder if they have seen the store closing list yet? My manager is at Disney right now..wonder if anyone called her. I hope not, let her enjoy her vacation. 2 of our closest stores are closing. If May 1 is the day of the turnover then I guess I won't be working when I get back from our trip. Oh well, I guess I could make alot more money somewhere else.

Hope you can find something that works for you!

Bernadette I love the clothes you have made!

Thanks!

Wow...You've been hiding your sewing talents. I'm very impressed I don't think the pooh fabric is too young looking, I think Lizzy would look cute in it...the important question is what does she think? It is a lot of work, so I'd ask her first.

Thanks! I think she'll love it. The A-Line is pretty easy once you've got it down. I think that would be a great pattern for that fabric-show off the fabric well.

53 days! Wow, I can't believe I'll be at Disney in 53 days. We are going to have so much fun with my niece & nephew. My only concern was whether my sister was going to listen to me about the rest in the afternoon. She seemed to think it wasn't necessary. Well, she took her kids to an indoor water park last week-end and told my mom afterwards that her kids were going to need a rest in the afternoon while we are at Disney! Yeah! She understands!

Molly decided this morning that she needed a haircut, so she gave herself one.

You did a great job fixing it but I understand your frustration. Emma's been letting her bangs grow out since August. I would be so upset if she cut them now that we are almost there.

Thanks Bernadette! And I love the pants, shirt and outfit. The fabrics you got are so cute.

Thanks!

Everything looks wonderful! I'm so impressed!

Thanks!

Bernadette - Love the sewing projects!! All very cute and the fabrics for the new projects are cute too.

Thanks!

Bernadette- Great job on the clothing. I should make myself some pajama pants then perhaps they will not look like high water pants.

Thanks! I did buy some fabric and pattern to make me PJ pants. I bought extra fabric to be sure I'd have enough to add to the inseam.

Hello, DDA! First day of spring break found me at the walk-in with a UTI. Fortunately, he prescribed the painkiller along with the antibiotic, so it hasn't slowed me down too much.

We don't have any great plans for the week. There is no school, but the other activities don't stop.

Today we had lunch at Friendly's (that place is getting pricey for the quality of the food). We also went to Target and the orthodontist. Fun day, huh?

It looks like Laura is going to need a frenectomy. We can't get into the oral surgeon's office for a consult for a month.

I have been missing you all, though I try to pop in at least to read a couple of times a week.

Hope you're feeling better! Good luck to Laura too!

Desi had her u/s this afternoon. its a

Hope you are feeling better soon Beth, enjoy Spring break!

I had to look this up "frenectomy". Sorry Laura has to wait so long.

Our Baskin Robbins closed

Yea for your packet arriving! Hope ds can get all his work done tonight

Baskin Robbins is doing $.31 scoop night on April 30 starting at 5 PM.

DH said my Mickey Moms' Panel packet arrived today!!

DS had math homework over the weekend.

 

[tinknme]

That is wonderful! Sorry you seem sad, but boys are just as special

[mommykds]

That's why we don't tell DS when we plan trips during the school year! The truancy zealots would have me shackled and jailed if word got out that we were going on VACATION!

Well that's the deal with the girl's school. Since Daniel goes to private school they do not collect federal funding & therefore do not rely on attendance to get their money. As long as we do not abuse the priviledge (& & 3 days isn't) we are o.k. The girls go to public school & the principal there is a truent zealot too (I like that terminology! )

Hi Beth,
hope the meds work

Ditto!!!

I got my Moms panel packet too!

 

[UP Disney]

Ricky's home. He is staying here for a few days to visit with Nicky. Then he'll be packing up to head off to see my niece & nephew. They really enjoyed Nicky so I think they'll be happy to see Ricky.

 

[UP Disney]

I got the princess dresses. I think that my niece will love them. Mom found some stuff at St. Vincent's for my nephew's Prince Charming outfit. We'll be working on that later this week.

I love my Overland Donner bag. It is a gorgeous color and I think it will be perfect with the compartments in it. This is exactly what I wanted. Thank you Lindsay for being an enabler!

 

[tinknme]

What color did you get? I have the Aloe & now the chocolate, I love them both!

Our Baskin Robbins closed

Bummer about your Baskin Robbins! They are franchised, you know. Through the same company as Dunkin' Donuts. Just in case you and Gary are looking for a business venture...

I thumbed through my packet. The pins are the best part!

DS is working a bit more on his project. He didn't seem to work on it much before I got home, and since he only has tomorrow before it is due I want him to finish it. I am not helping on this one, I am just nagging him to finish it!

I got the twilight/paisley one. I went back and forth about the chocolate one and finally decided on the twilight one. I may just have to get a second one down the road.

 

[UP Disney]

My two favorite shows are on tonight. Bones & New Amsterdam. I started watching New Amsterdam online when I was bored with what was on TV. I really connected with it for some reason.

Hope everyone is having a great night!

Stopping by to say with a fun post count.

Very impressive pictures, Deb and Stephanie!

Congratulations on your milestone post counts, Elin and Janet!

Tia, the party was great! Here's a link to the pictures I posted last week.

And Robyn, I loved seeing Molly's birthday pictures! You really put me to shame with those fancy cupcakes! I'm sorry about the scissors incident this morning. That's one reason I'm not pushing the whole "Alyssa has weak control of scissors" thing at home.

Julie has her c-section scheduled for next Tuesday...hopefully Baby Jack will wait that long!

Alyssa got her first Webkinz (a polar bear she named Corduroy) and I am so clueless! We bought a trampoline for some exercise, but how do we put it outside?

I hope everyone's week is off to a good start.

 

[yellowfish78]

So is it terrible that I left my dining reservations at work taped to my desk? I honestly am so fried out that I have no idea what we are eating where...Off to go check the schedule for park days to refresh my mind!

Such cute pictures!! The cakes and cookies were beautiful. Looks like everyone had a lot of fun.

To put the trampoline (or anything for the room) outside or into the room, you just drag it from the bar at the bottom into the room. For the trampoline, have you bought the outside room yet? To do that, click on "map" and then on "buy a room". Hope that helps! If not, I can try again

im happy for her she just really wanted a girl and now her husband is saying he doesnt want anymore after this one and he is getting fixed. i hope he thinks about it because she wants to try 1 more time for a girl in a few years.
