***Disney Design Addict's Chit Chat,Designs and Pixie Dust! Everybody WELCOME!*** Part 3

[Pooh67_68]

I just had a busy weekend and am in a HUGE funk

I am exhausted - missing Disney and I think the worst thing is that Julia is turning 4 tomorrow

she just isn't my baby girl anymore and I just can't help but feel a little sad about how quickly she is growing!!! It really seems like just yesterday I held her as a tiny newborn in my arms!! I guess it also doesn't help that my sister always sends us hand me downs but her little one is petite and I waited for them and she sent them and now the age difference no longer poses the appropriate clothing sizes (they are just 9 months apart) so none of the hand me downs fit so I basically have no clothes for her - so now I have to go find time to shop this week - I work at my church and our priest is a horses behind and making my boss miserable which makes my fun part time job miserable - it is cold and rainy - I have no countdown timer to my next vacation because I don't know when it is...

did I miss anything? sorry for the rant - I feel a little better now just writing it out!!

Sorry you are having a bad day, hope things start to get better.

Very cute.

My baby is 6 now & in school full time....total shock to the system. My oldest (not pictured) is turning 18 soon & leaving for college. I haved toyed with the idea of having 1 more...but I am afraid I would have to administer CPR to hubby. I think that's why he keeps letting me plan Disney trips...keeps me busy & is cheaper that kid #5!

My DH kept saying that I peed on the stick wrong! When we were surprised about our 4th(his 6th). He was in total denial until the ultrasound. Of course then we switched and I was in total denial that it was another boy! He has 6 boys . Now I wouldn't change any of my DS's for the world, but I still long for a princess. People still come up and ask us if we're going to keep trying. I always say "you never know". DH says emphatically "No". I'll have to tell him he needs to keep me busy planning Disney vacations.

 

[Eeyorecln]

J and N's mom : I know it's hard when they grow up. Hoping your day gets better.

Triplefigs: I'm so glad everything worked out. Here's hoping for a magical trip. AAA had problems with our Disneyland trip package, as well. They sent us 3 separate bills when we had paid the minute we booked. DH was on the phone with them like I'm not paying for the same trip 3 times no matter what your computer says.

Brendita: I hope when you get back your DH is behaving better. I hope your vacation goes great.

I so look forward to reading this thread. I don't post much, just a lurker. But, I feel like everyone here is a great group of people. And really talented. If I ever get this photoimpact figured out I have an idea for a shirt design.

So I think the general consensus is that if you go in Oct., go toward the end of the month. The only reason I would consider going is for MNSSHP.

I know about those "post trip blues." I also know about not being happy at work and having a boss that makes things even more miserable.

My oldest just started kindergarten this year. I went through that sadness, and now it is more exciting, watching him learn how to read, ect. A whole new world is opening up for him.

Hope you feel better soon. And happy birthday to Julia!

What is a good size of image, so it is not pixelated??? Thank you.

 

[poohangel]

I have been painting all day and want to show you what I have come up with. Be easy on me because it isn't done I still have some embellishments to add to it.

 

[Tammi67]

[geetey]

[miss missy]

hey all -

has anyone gotten their photoimpact rebates from when we all ordered in July? I haven't gotten mine yet and am beginning to wonder

I know I some of you designs - I am working on them - I just had a busy weekend and am in a HUGE funk

I am exhausted - missing Disney and I think the worst thing is that Julia is turning 4 tomorrow

she just isn't my baby girl anymore and I just can't help but feel a little sad about how quickly she is growing!!! It really seems like just yesterday I held her as a tiny newborn in my arms!!

I KNOW to well how that all feels, my DD is bigger than my sis DD which they are 6 mouths apart! But I can up you on the growing up thing. I taught my just 12 DD tp shave last week! Now you just have to feel better now, Julia is e-on's away from that. And if that wasn't enough, she asked if she could take down her kitty and puppie posters AND we cleaned "the toy" room and threw out most of her old toys! Barbies to Bratz to NONE! You just have to be happy Julia is still a lil girl!

The other stuff is minor and you will move past it fast... tired stinks and missing Disney is the worst fore sure...but hey make a countdown for something, anything and use it for now!

I hope that Cheered you up some.

I thought the preg test I bought was wrong with my #4 because I bought the cheapest generic test they had....then I went out & bought 3 of the most expensive tests they had...I think back on that and always get a good laugh...

For karebear1:

(I can adjust the coloring if need be..just let me know)

It's PERFECT!!!! THANKS SO MUCH! I went around the house yelling Lady Lucca Rules.... I'm sure my neighbors were getting a big kick out of it! It really is perfect no need to change a thing. Thanks again!
I'm really glad you were able to find your lost files!

Hi! We did the spray bottle tye dye shirts with the stencils. I didn't have any trouble with my 11 year old and he is pretty funny about what he will wear. Of course we were far from home where none of his friends could see him.

~~Lynn ~~

Yes, my tween had shirts that are only for Disney! Its the age!

 

[maryjeane]

I'm the one who did the spray painted shirts w/the Mickey head and the Pooh stencil. I used the Tulip spray paints at Michael's - they are not tie die paints. They were really easy. My DD - 13 in a couple of weeks refused to wear Mickey or Pooh, but said she'd wear Tink - don't know if you saw the picture, but she LOVES it!! I was getting worried because before doing hers she was saying she didn't even want to wear Tink, but would do if just for me. Well, she loves her shirt and I think she'll wear it proudly in Disneyland. I don't know that she'll wear it elsewhere, but Tink is "cool" among teens.

If I can figure out how to link my photobucket pictures I will.

Hello...new arrival from the "other" coast...I'm just starting to plan for a trip in the spring and looking at doing some shirts for the crew...for those that tie-die, how many shirts did you need for "practice" before getting the mouse design down? the stencils look great too, was this w/the spray dye as well? How many people have boys willing to wear these (preteens w/attitude)?

THANKS
Chris

Nope, not yet.

 

[Cajun Princess]

Wow, I've been trying to catch up all day...

rosiejo- your shirts came out GREAT. You should make matching bride and groom ones

triplefigs - Glad to hear that your trip is still on and all your ressies have been saved. Just think what could have happened if you hadn't checked

julia & nicks mom - Having little ones grow up is so hard sometimes. My oldest started high school and my other middle school both this year. Boy do they grow up fast. But Julia will always be your little girl no matter what her age. Sending and

To all those leaving for trips this week have a safe and magical time.

 

[bear74]

[poohangel]

triplefigs, glad everything worked out for you because I was looking forward to meeting you

That can not be fun at all. Did you miss a day at the parks? Would you eat there again? I have PS there for the first time, never been, I know I won't be getting chicken parm

We did miss one day. We missed on Columbus Day so it was probably a busy day to miss. We had scheduled to take a break from the parks on Thurs when we were going to the Halloween party. We just had to take it early & we went to the parks on Thursday morning for a couple of hours. It really messed up our PS because we changed the days we were planning on going to different parks. I would recommend making extra PS at different parks or resorts just in case you have to make changes. While we were there, it was very hard to get any PS.

I don't think I will eat there again just from the memories. It was some of the best food we had at WDW before it made us sick. I am sure it could happen anywhere. We were on the Fantasmic dinner package so it was a limited menu of choices. Also, it took us 2 hours to eat there which seemed way too long. Good Luck!
