Indecision & Obsession! A Sept. PTR with a toddler for DxDP, MNSSHP, and F&W!

Hey! I'm here. I want to see bigger pictures of you too. Your DD is just adorable! princess: I just now realized you started a PTR. Thanks for telling me...:rolleyes1 I'm kidding... :rotfl2:

I'm working on the pics! As soon as DD gets to bed I'll get some up! I was gonna wait to tell people when it got interesting... which could be never! :lmao:
 
So let me introduce us a little more...

Here is a picture of my DH and I on our wedding day in March 2006

how cute are you all!! very!
 
Yay! More pics. I'm interested....WTH do you mean when :rolleyes: ~ have some faith in your friends! Your DD loooks just like her dada. He can;t deny her! I love her Easter pic. It's so cute! Did you feed before bed? :lmao: Just reminding you. ;)

Thanks so much! :goodvibes

I hear it all the time how she looks like her daddy... even my family has to admit! :rotfl: Once in a while she'll make a face that "resembles" me, but for the most part, she's the spitting image of him! He loves it! Do I have to feed her every day?? :confused: I really shouldn't joke about that though! DD is tiny for her age and the drs. are having me feed her pediasure and monitoring her height and weight. She eats all the time, but is on the go constantly too. She's going to be small--I'm only 5'0", but now the drs. have me paranoid! :sad2:

Geez. Silly doctors. If you're 5' tall your baby isn't going to be 5'11 (more than likely). I hate when they say things like that and make ya worry. I love our pediatrician. He's a character himself. When I chose him the first thing I asked...Do you have kids? I wanted to make sure he was a father too because he was so young. Those who have children just seem better suited to me. I always hear how little DS is for his age. (He's really skinny and just average in height) and my other two are in the 95th percentile for height and regular weight. The baby wears a size 5! DS is in an 8! He could wear a 7 waist but he will soon need a 10 for length. I was the same way. Skinny as could be (but I was tall too). Made it even worse. I couldn't find clothes to fit. Point is kids grow at their own rate. Your DD looks perfectly healthy to me. So what if she's petite. She'll be pretty like her mommy. :goodvibes

Awww, thank you!! :hug: If she was heavy, they'd be saying the same crap! Drs. have a way of making me paranoid though! The first thing she said after the initial "concern" was "Now, I don't want you to think that we think you're doing anything wrong..." I was pretty much instantly holding back tears cause that hadn't crossed my mind at that point. I was worried about my baby and she threw that out there! ugh! :headache:
 
So, I've been changing my mind once again. I'm thinking of turning this 7 night trip into a 10 nigh trip. The cost isn't much difference, especially since we won't need parkhoppers if we're there for that long (any little bit helps when presenting the numbers to DH! :laughing:) Anyways, right now we're booked for 7 nights. When I try to do 10 nights for our dates, it won't let me book our hotel. However, it will let me book the remaining three nights, so I'm "assuming" if I call, that the CM will be able to add the nights for me. If not, I'm also thinking about going when I had originally planned, about a month earlier. This means no F&W, but I'll deal! ;)We probably will not upgrade to DxDp if we do go 10 nights, but then again, it's really not THAT much more. It is actually cheaper to go 10 nights and not upgrade than 7 with the upgrade. Decisions, decisions... but right now I'm looking at going for 10 nights :woohoo: and possibly changing dates if needed!
 
I'm so excited! :cloud9:I just got off the phone booking 3 more nights, giving us 10 nights total! I've never gone on a vacation for 10 nights!! I haven't decided if we'll upgrade to DxDP for 10 nights (that's a lot of food :scared1:) but DH wants to, so we'll see! I must say that I'm actually happy that DH has given some input for this trip. I think he secretly loved Disney World more than he's letting on! :yay:
 
I just followed your post over. 10 days! Wow! This is our 1st trip...8 days and our longest. I am just as indecisive. By now my TA must hate me! Can't wait to keep reading.

Thanks for stopping by! :goodvibes I'm still undecided on so many things, my head is spinning! DxDP or regular? 7 nights or 10? PH or no PH? I have a planning notebook with a bunch of different scenarios! :rotfl:
 
Yay for 10 nights!!! :banana: I wish my DH would be onboard for staying that long. I think I may have convinced him to stay for 7 instead of 6 though. :thumbsup2

Well, now DH "isn't so sure" about getting off work for 10 days!:confused3 So it looks like it might be only a 7 night trip by the time all is said and done. :sad2: Did you decide not to do MNSSHP? My DH doesn't want to dress up. :rotfl:
 
My DD's 2nd birthday is next Tuesday. I don't know where the past two years have gone! :sad1: Anyways, she's probably having three parties (that's what happens when you move away from all your family.) This weekend we'll be visiting some of DH's family in the Nashville area. They own a "school" and will be having a Spring Festival of some sort with pony rides, dunk tank, etc... DD should love this! Then we're going out to eat at a restaurant that is like the Coral Reef, with the aquarium all around you! I KNOW DD will love seeing all the "Nemos" while she is eating, if she can contain herself to eat! :rolleyes1 We'll have cake this weekend, and of course her party will be Finding Nemo themed! She loves her Nemo, although has been asking to watch Cindrella, TinkerBell or Mermaid lately (she's getting girly!! :yay:) Here's her birthday supplies that I got a pretty good deal on

And last night we got her, her very first "bike!" A pink and purple Radio Flyer trike. I really hope she likes it! I got her a princess basket and a pink/purple horn to go with it--which everyone within a 100 mile radius will probably be able to hear--that thing is loud! :scared1: She already has a princess helmet and pads. I can't wait to see if she can ride it!

I also got her the first Toy Story movie (she has the 2nd and LOVES Wookie and Bee!) and I got her this doll because she LOVES Caillou (I personally can't stand the kid!)

I think we'll have her a little cake on her actual birthday and probably give her the presents then. At the end of the month we'll be going home and celebrating with my family. I think we'll have a cook-out and of course, a Nemo cake! :woohoo:

Yeah, I decided to skip MNSSHP this year. DH wasn't crazy about the idea, and neither of my kids will really be old enough to appreciate it. I'm hoping to go to WDW next year around the same time, so we'll probably hit up the party then.

Is the Aquarium restaurant that you're eating at in Nashville at Opry Mills? I've always wanted to eat there, but just never have. I've heard the food's pretty good and the atmosphere is great!

I love the Nemo-themed party supplies! I'm about to start buying DS's MMC supplies for his party at the end of May. I can't believe he's turning 2 already! :sad1: The time sure has flown. That bike is too cute! You'll have to post a pic of your DD on it in her princess helmet and pads.

DH would be the reason we don't go to MNSSHP too! He's not too thrilled with the idea, and like you, I think my DD might not be old enough to appreciate it. I don't know when we'll be back to Disney after this though! :sad2:

The restaurant is in Opry Mills! I've eaten there once, with my SIL and it was good! We shared a huge appetizer and each got a salad then shared a dessert-- a reeses brownie sundae thing :cloud9:! The food was really good and they had a sting ray (I think it was sting rays :confused3) area set up across from the restaurant. I can't want to take DD! I want to get some good pics to share too, since its similar to Coral Reef and can feed my Disney obsession for the weekend!:rotfl:

I understand about the party planning! I'm a little depressed... she's growing up so fast!

We took DS to the Sting Ray area there last summer! He rode the carousel and was really more interested in just splashing in the water than actually "petting" the sting rays, but it was a neat experience. I think my DH actually fed a sting ray while we were there. You guys will love it!
 
Sorry for the double post, but I had to let you know b/c I know you'll be just as upset as I am - they TOOK OUT the frozen Coke machine at POP!!!!!! :furious: They're replacing it with the tea machines that they have at the other Value resorts. :sad1:
