oooo yay! yeah i thought i remembered there being one on the dvc cruise we went on. and my parents were like, no there's no formal on the 4 night. see we usually do longer cruises. so i couldn't remember

My girls will be dressed to the nines in their princess outfits, but I'll be wearing just a nice cruise dress or some thing. nothing too fancy. I do remember seeing a couple dressed up couples on formal night...not very many however.

Very cute. Nice to know DD does not abandon "family". I still think it is a sign of creativity. Not that kids who don't have an imaginary friend are not creative, just a different kind of creativity and I admire your willingness to accept this in your kids.

I'd always heard that children who have imaginary friends are creative and so far, it has been the case with DS15. He had an imaginary friend when he was little and now he's very artistic. Maybe his sister will follow in his footsteps since she has filled our home with her "friends".

Not sure but I know that at WDW, at that store by Pirates of the Caribbean, I wanted to get a woman's pirate t-shirt and they were teeny tiny. I ended up finding one XXL I think, that was doable for me. The Disneyshopping.com site has some new women's pirate shirts, they looked like a similar cut. That cap sleeved, baby t style. Check it out. Also, they have a new line, I think in the stores and online, Disney Couture (sp), which looks like a smaller cut...not that huge boxy t-shirt style. http://disneyshopping.go.com/DSSectionPage.process?Merchant_Id=2&Section_Id=11875&Product_Id=194693

Thanks Lisa! I will look into it.

My DD will also be wearing her princess dresses...but probably every night. We have so many that it's nice for her to get extended use out of them. The rest of our gang though, will probably stay "cruise casual'. Please don't shun us if we're not in black tie.

[sugaswim]

no shunning. i just want an excuse to dress up one night. i don't dress up often... my mom referred to me the other day as a 'tomboy'
i said that's fine, i don't care... i'm girlie enough for the boys to notice me, and then when they find out i like 'guy' things they like me even more
yeah no... totally kidding... but yeah... i'm not big on all things girlie, just a little and dressing up once in a while is fun

We are not a dress up family. I made Palo reservations for that night so I only have to do it once. One dress, 3 skirts, 1 pair of shoes to match all and I am ready for dinners.

Holly, you'll like my youngest dd. On Easter sunday she was crawling on the driveway chasing jelly bean in her tulle skirted dress. She wasn't being dainty about it either. She was determined to get it and beat her sibling to it.

I'd love to have seen that! How cute! I think we're all very similar in many ways.

excellent... i'll take her too... i'm starting my posse now... and all kids love me. so this is perfect

 

[sugaswim]

alrighty well i suppose i should be getting to bed. i didn't manage to get up early enough to run this morning. so i have to force myself to tomorrow. even if it's already insanely hot by that time... ugh... have a good night everyone!

He is 7 years old 4'3" tall and weighs 66lbs. He wears a kids size 3. They don't look big but neither do mine. I'm 5'11" so people tend to think I wear a 9 or 10 typically. I can get a regular 12 in some shoes. My feet grew 1/2 a size when I had DS. Does that explain why he's an only child?

Mine grew too. Isn't that weird?

Not at all. Hormones during pregnancy soften the ligaments in the body so that the pelvis can spread a bit to help let the baby through. The only problem is that all the ligaments soften, not just the ones in the pelvis. Some of us had to (and some still have to) take a few seconds after standing up from a chair before walking to get our hips "into joint." That sounds odd, but is the only way I can describe it and several other older Moms have understood what I meant.

So, since all the ligaments soften, and the added weight of a pregnancy is fully carried on your feet AND the foot bones are held together by ligaments--there you have it--wider or longer feet or both. I got both.

Welcome to the club.

I don't know about you, but I would not trade 9 1/2W feet for 8 1/2 if it meant I did not get to have DS#1 and DS#2 in my live. They are the BEST!
