DIS Dads DDC XVIII - Spring Fever!

[trennr]

Good Evening Everyone!

Thanks for the congratulations - I haven't had time to read through them all, but I did see quite a few. I'll get through all of them, I promise! But for now, let me tease you with a shot of my new son, Ryder.

(He's the little one next to the Dole Whip shirt. )

So...has Ryder tried to lick that Shirt?!!?

ummmm....Dole Whip!!!!

Congrats!!! and Nice Shirt!

Nothing like sitting at the airport while your flight is delayed. Feel like Tom Hanks in Terminal.

Happy Monday Afternoon everyone. Spent the night at the hospital with DS last night. Up 3 or 4 times for feedings. DW and I are switching off, with the other one here at home with the bigger kids to get them off to school, etc.

Talked to the Doc this morning - they stopped one of the antibiotics that he doesn't need, but will need to be on the other one until this weekend. As of right now we're looking at bringing him home Saturday night or Sunday morning. It's going to be a long week, but he'll be home before we know it!

And just for fun, a picture of the little guy:

glad to hear hes doing well barry!!!!

Just the convention...we're out of DVC points until Feb 2013, so will pay out of pocket for the next trip. Still under negotiation for the next trip

we were in the same boat. we were getting 2 bedroom villas and gotbehind on the points. we are paying cash for the may trip but we should be in good shape after that for the next 10 years or so.

T

I met you and can testify to that.

Says the guy with all the prescription meds in his bag...

 

[DisDadDoc]

Adorable! Looks like he's holding his temp okay!

I have 2 points left for this year if you guys want them...

Same boat for me. Going to pay out of pocket for DDC since DW isn't coming and prefers I use DVC with her...

That being the case, lets hope we get good group rates for the convention!!!

Don't encourage him.

Hey folks... I've seen you've been busy.

CJ - Sounds like you had a great weekend up until the wallet incident, is that going to influence the Pirate Princesses decision?

Barry - cute pic of Ryder.

Paul - congrats on 3k.

Chris - Sounds like an awesome week of camping

Fed - You never did tell us why you "aren't 25 anymore", I am in the same boat however.

James - good luck with those taxes... uggghh...


If I missed anyone... sorry...

Just trying to get caught up.

No big news tro report on my neck and shoulder pain. Started taking the prescribed meds last night, was a bit drowsy today - not sure if that was med realted or not... At least the pain isn't getting worse.

Oh, thanks!

I'm probably going solo too. I'd like for our wives and familes to meet, but I'm really excited for a guys trip. The last trip I spend two days completely solo at WDW and it was very cool.

Maybe you'll learn English and meet a hot flight attendant.

Until the next 2 BR. It's so tempting. Received the email that contract has been submitted t Disney. 14 mor days until points are ours.

Glad to hear you are feeling better. Hope it continues.

nope, we are done with the two bedroom villas. we were spending 325-380 points at a clip for one trip. briana loved it!!! it was like she had her own hotel room. it really was way to much for 3 people but it was fun. when we told her we were staying at the poly this trip, she asked when are we staying at okw again? well, i guess she has been going to okw, twice a year since she was 6 so. i can see how she would miss it.

Good Morning Guys ,
Well Wrestlemania 28 is in the books and it was a great show on PPV last night along with all the food i cooked
chicken stir fry
baked ziti with Sausage and meat
then we shrimp dip and french onion dip
and dessert i made for the first time i did chocolate covered strawberries
and the great friends i had over .
Cannot wait till next year it is comming to NJ and the Following year it should be back to where it all started Madison Square Garden .

I wanted to order the PPV, but could not justify the price. Sounds like the first half of the card was a bust anyways.

Sorry to hear you are still in pain. Can you get a second opinion?

He asked, buut you know, that whole Canadian in suspense thing...

Hey guys,

How's it going?


Just for the record...apparently I'm not 25 anymore

My 25th year was recalled due to defectiveness...

What a fun trip NY is. Had my wallet stolen last night. Cancelled the cards but no ID and I am picking up the kid to go to the airport in a bit. Called AA and they basically said good luck. Fed, can I tell them I know you?

Wish me luck getting on the plane.

Bloody hell, that is beverly. Hope it gets resloved. (Heard you made it to the plane at least)

Come on you can do a marathon. You can beat a little girl.

I couldn't beat a three-legged turtle

Awesome, looking good! I gotta ask, what is the logo on the hat?

 

[dvczerfs]

i have 2 points left for this year if you guys want them...

Same boat for me. Going to pay out of pocket for ddc since dw isn't coming and prefers i use dvc with her...

that being the case, lets hope we get good group rates for the convention!!!

$10.00 ?????

 

[AirGoofy]

Come on you can do a marathon. You can beat a little girl..

No chance. I could start my marathon now and would still not have it finished by the time we meet and I get that beer you owe me.

Thanks. And you are spot on, no chance of me passing a mental examination, of any sort!

Good to know your limits.

Glad to hear things are going well. Great pic.

Thanks for all the great photos, Norm! Makes me want to go check the place out...

It is much nice than I expected. It is way better than panama city beach.

So have almost all of the 30s.....

No, real story...I just continue to run around a soccer field like I'm still in my mid 20s, and my body lets me know, every Monday morning, that it just ain't the case

Are you on a club team?

Although I recall there were several months in my 20's where I couldn't afford to eat anything but pasta and watered down canned tomato sauce...

Glad to be out of that period!

And ramen noodles. Although, if prepared correctly, those aren't bad. Red beans and rice was a cheap one as well. Now, we add shrimp to it.

Looks good. I've always wanted to go there. In my mind it looks like a great resort without the cost of the theme parks. But whatver I would save on park tix, I'd spend on golf and lobster!

See below.

Sounds like you're having a great time...what if you're not a seafood fan?

Does this answer both your questions? Tonight's meal.

So sorry to hear it. I hope at least that the inconvenience is the end of it. Maybe it was by the same person who got Dave's credit card.

Thanks guys. I had no idea that was my 3,000 post, or else I would have posted about something more inspiring than my doctor probing me for an hour!

Kind of fitting though!

congrats on the 3K and the probing

Tonight's in trip pictures.

Went to th beach house today. Some advertising. But, they also had an indoor, air conditioned, tv watching and gathering area for those who don't want to be outdoors, Disney thinks of everything.

they also have the pool side bar. But, they can only make drinks from a standard menu. Had a rum punch and will avoid that in the future.

We arrived at the beach round 9:30 AM. Where did the water go?

Oldest found a starfish.

Little more difficult to pick it up.

Youngest found a crab leg. That is the closest to seafood she came all trip. Every meal was chicken or hot dog.

My proudest accomplishment.

Not my fingers in the pic. But, I dug my own hole for beach umbrella with the toy shovel one receives with a kid meal, and, it held against the wind on th beach. The beach house pool also had a net for volleyball. So, we spent 2.5 hours on the beach and 2.5 hours at the pool. Then, we returned to home resort.

This was a trip to hunt Brer Rabbit with Shadow.

Apparrntly, the story of Brer Rabbit has some beginnings at the Hilton Head islands. Interesting story.

The kids gt to walk along with th dog and feed the rabbits hiding in the bushes. At the end of the trip, we end up at the main entrance for lemonade and cookies.

Another fabulous day. We went out to eat at Scott's Fish Market.

Now' time for some night swimming. Have a magical day. I think there is a basketball game on tonight?

I've been in and out of the period so often I think it is normal.

Hey guys. Had my annual check up today. All systems are still functioning normally, for now.

Thanks guys. I had no idea that was my 3,000 post, or else I would have posted about something more inspiring than my doctor probing me for an hour!

Congrats on the 3K, not the probing.

Sorry to hear that. Hope it works out well.

FED!!! 25, 35, not even 45 anymore for me.

+1

...



or doing their taxes. nothing like waiting until the last minute. ...

or should be doing them. I dread the process. I had to tape into the 401K for a new heat pump for the vacation home aka the house we could not sell when we moved.
