Jennifer- The nursery looks so wonderful. And I can't see anything.



I am off to catch up on DWTS and finish up a few things before I head to bed. Have a good night DDA!

[triplefigs]

Amy, you are truly one amazing baker!

Jen, the nursery is adorable. I'll definitely look for that print for you.

Janet, can't wait to see the pictures.

Karen, can't wait to find out which dog you get! I'd pick Atlanta

Elin, where all are you eating for your trip? We still have a couple of spots for ADRs on the DXDDP for this trip. I'm open for suggestions!~

Tammi, don't know if you saw my earlier post. How is Alyssa's leg tonight? And I hope the stomach bug is over and hasn't spread further.

How is Mo feeling tonight? I'm sure she is sore.

Elizabeth, sorry about your sister. It sure isn't helping your situation at the moment. Sending you hugs.

Marci, hope you got a break today. Your weekend tired me out.

Hugs and hellos to everyone else!

Tammi, don't know if you saw my earlier post. How is Alyssa's leg tonight? And I hope the stomach bug is over and hasn't spread further.

She's fine, unless the bruise is bumped. But it's blue/purple. Nicholas is fine now, so if he makes it through the night it's back to school tomorrow. Thanks for asking!

 

[KMH1]

Marci, I hope Randy had a great first day at his new job!

Jen, good luck at your interview tomorrow!

I hope all the sick and banged-up kiddos are on the upswing ASAP!

Julie is still hanging in there, and I've stuck to my promise of making them a meal once a week, so I need to go package that up, so Kevin can drop it off tomorrow at Dave's office.

I hope you all have a great night!

And Robyn, you know I would help you in a heartbeat if you lived a little closer.

So today was a wacky, crappy day. It started out with a nice long drive to the elementary school, that I thought I was late to. I park on the right side of the building according to the signs and then go to the door it is locked, so I walk around to the front of the building, dragging my stuff go inside and the secretary lets me in. Nope not late, instead I was 24 hours early. I thought today was the 8th.

On the way back to my car the display board slips off my shoulder and lands on the back of my heel. I get in my car, put it in drive and go boom into the on the ground divider. None of the other rows have them, so I thought I could go forward. Back my car up and leave the school and head to the office.

I end up getting stuck in traffic and the less then hour ride takes almost two. I end up finding way too many things to do at the office and did not get out of there until about 5:15pm. Left came home and then had a meeting for my Relay team.

Now I have to finish my assignments for my class that are due tomorrow at midnight. But I now have to go back to the school in the morning to do my activity with the kids, into the office and then I have an event tomorrow night.

My whole body aches, but especially my arms, neck, shoulders and legs. I think it is from all the sitting and driving today. I am exhausted and have a long day tomorrow. I should not have went to Hershey yesterday, but it is the only weekend they are open until May and I needed some outdoor time.

Hope everyone is doing well.

I think I am heading to bed for a short nap and then up again to work on the homework and hopefully finish it all and then back to bed for a few hours before I have to go to work in the morning.

Have a great day.

I told DH he has been e-mailing IPO and setting up some lovely surprises for his wife's birthday. He said I should print the e-mails for him so he will know what he has requested.

I hope he did a spectacular job!

 

[Tinkaroo]

I'm trying to remember everything that I read so if I forget someone it's not intentional!

Elizabeth- I'm glad that you and DS are home safe. The idea to take your mom to WDW sounds great. "Diva Girl"- what a great term of endearment I hope Princess is done bringing you gifts today.

Marci- Sounds like a great weekend, albeit just a bit busy. You simply amaze me that you all can fit so much in into 2 days. Hope Randy had a great first day.

Denise- Sorry 2 of the the Figs got sick on your visit. How are they today. Forgive me but I can't remember which 2 it was. Mo is good, although it looks like we beat her Just this afternoon she ran smack into the coffee table corner. Now she is sporting 3 lovely bruises.

Anne Marie- I am sorry you are having tummy troubles. Congrats to Daniel!!

Deb- for a good bowling tournament for the boys. I hope you got done all that you wanted to today. Congrats to Nick, I hope this is right, on the great report card. My brain is just not remembering the details today.

Jennifer- I loved the shower pics. The cake was absolutely precious. And I love the half eaten cake pic too. With Emma, we didn't know that she was a girl and got a ton of yellow and green. I hated it but I never really liked pink either back then, she wore a lot of red. And Lucy doesn't wear anything but pink it seems.

Amy- You simply blow my mind. The cakes, cupcakes and cookies all looked so fabulous! Molly saw the butterfly cupcakes and wants them for her school celebration. Want to make me some and send them my way? I need them by Thursday!

Karen- Is Desi having a boy?

Tammi- How is Nicholas feeling?

Vicki- Great dresses!!

That's about all I remember. and 's to those I forgot.

Thanks for the post to "ditto", Robyn!

I hope Molly continues to feel okay, and good luck with your Passover baking!

Apparently Le Cellier has changed their menu. Not for the better, in my opinion. I might be canceling our ADR and looking for something else for dinner. Maybe we will do an "eat around World Showcase" night after all!

Interesting...what all has changed? We don't eat there any longer (gave it 3 tries, and it just never did much for us), so I have no idea what's the norm now-adays.

Or - let me guess - did they just shrink the portions and raise the prices?

Hi, all. Home from the Peds with Rees and BK. They both have ear infection, sinus infection, and bronchitis. Not a fun way to start Spring Break. I went and picked up their meds and have already given them a dose. Hopefully, they'll be able to travel later this week to see my grandmother. It'll be our last trip to her home, as she's moving to the Nursing home in a few weeks. Her health is really deteriorating.

Roaches are the ONLY bug I freak over. When John and I were first married I saw one on the floor in the guest room where I was working on the computer. He was asleep. I stood on a chair, beat the wall, and screamed until he came to get it. Not happy with me at all!

Hope everyone is well. I'm just so excited that our trip is getting so close FINALLY! Please pray that we don't cancel this one too. And John initiated talk for a Christmas trip, so we're planning to book a bounceback trip when we go. I'm not sure when I'll be working so it might not happen, but better safe than sorry! At the least, we'll be back before a year is up.

Sorry to hear that Rees and BK are sick, Denise! Lots of so they're well enough to visit your grandmother. I'm sorry to hear she's not doing well.

I hope this trip is NOT cancelled, and that you guys are able to get the bounce back deal. We might overlap a day or two in Dec., but we'll likely be staying at the AKL during that overlap. We're scheduled for Dec. 11-19; 4 nights at AKL CL and 4 nights at GF RPC.

The artist, David E Doss, that did the Disney sandpail prints that Jennifer is using in her nursery will be on-site at Epcot while we're there with new prints including one for the F&GF!~ I'm definitely stopping by to see them. Anyone tell me where the Art of Disney is at Epcot?

Looks neat!

I didn't see anyone answer you - the Art of Disney at Epcot is to the right of Spaceship Earth, heading towards Innoventions. That store is my favorite AoD on property.

Those of you around -- if you look at these pictures, can you "read" either of the names on the wall? Could you if you were a crazy MIL that looked at them full-size for who knows how long, probably squinting and doing any magic eye tricks you could think of?

I'm totally starting to see things, since I know what they look like!

Does your MIL not know the names of the girls yet?

The nursery is looking wonderful!

The last of the party pictures. For the most part, I'm just posting pictures of my kiddos, since I'm not sure the other moms would want me sharing pictures of their kids.

Everything looked wonderful, Amy. Your kids are lucky to have such a wonderful mom. Alyssa is turning into quite the beauty, too!

And your mother's cookies!

Marci, I hope Randy had a great first day at his new job!

Jen, good luck at your interview tomorrow!

I hope all the sick and banged-up kiddos are on the upswing ASAP!

Julie is still hanging in there, and I've stuck to my promise of making them a meal once a week, so I need to go package that up, so Kevin can drop it off tomorrow at Dave's office.

I hope you all have a great night!

And Robyn, you know I would help you in a heartbeat if you lived a little closer.

Good reminders, Amy!

Marci - I hope Randy's first day was just great.

Jen - good luck!!!!!

It's good to hear that Julie is still hanging in there. that it continues!

I'm so sorry, Becky. Lots of to get you through the next 24 hours. I know how daunting it is to be staring "one of those days" in the face. You can do it!

I have a charge from Disney Dining on my CC that I can't figure out what it is. The charge is for $193.57 and says WDW Dining Reservations. We are 2A/3C and are on the DXDDP. We are eating at CRT for dinner, PSB for dinner, and supposedly cancelled HDDR. I thought they just use your CC to hold the charge for the Princess meals, not actually run it through if you're on the DDP. We are also going to the P&PP, but I have that charge separate on my CC.

Can anyone help me figure out what the charge could be? I've run the numbers and nothing matches up. I don't want to call if it's a legitimate charge. Thanks!

 

[PNO4TE]

Denise - do they run a charge for CRT?

As for TS and Signature restaurants, this is our list:

Biergarten, Le Cellier (might switch to Rose & Crown), Chefs de France and Coral Reef for lunch

California Grill, Citricos, Narcoossee's, Yachtsman Steakhouse for dinner

OOP possibly Kona Cafe and Tusker House for lunches and Kona Cafe for breakfast one morning for Bob.

 

[PNO4TE]

Time for bed here...

I hope tomorrow is better for Becky!

Everyone else...

They do charge in advance for CRT, but I didn't think they did that if you had one of the DP's. Of course, it's possible that someone made a mistake.

I've had a lot of special event stuff billed under the Dining line item - could it be your tix to the Disney Channel concert?

We won those tickets- FREE!!! It's on 1/30 too, when I was CANCELLING everything for our 2/2 trip. Who would you call tomorrow? Disney Dining or the CC?

I made it to Lansing safe & sound. I'm at the Residence Inn.

I need some to get through the next couple of days. It is going to be a tough couple of days.
