Just when you thought you've seen all the MAGIC! **See Page 95 for PTR!!!!**

Good call not bringing Puppy to the parks. We learned that one after losing our son's Dog at Disney.

Glad to hear you found a room for the last night. I thought for a minute there you'd have no other choice but to book the Polynesian. You know, if there's nothing else available...

 

[norybell]

Thank goodness you found a room! How stressful!

Your update has made me want to be flying to FL right now! (I mean, even more than I want to be flying to FL typically.)

 

[Woth2982]

Love the update! Still have no clue how you kept this a secret!

 

[smileycrissy]

Oh No! was it hard not to post here about your room mishap and then that super feeling you had when you fixed it?

great update Tim

and because I well I am addicted to the Dis & not terribly engaged at work today, here ya go:

That looks awesome!!!!!!

Are we waiting for Tim's approval to put it in our siggies - cuz you know that could take some time..... ..... Although since Moira created it I guess we can just use her say so to use it.

I'm no waiting for Tim's approval. I just want Moria's.

Great job Mary Ellen!

Tim, have you accepted your celebrity status yet???

 

[that's nice]

Another round of adorable pictures of Ana. I wish Max were even remotely interested in posing for pictures. But what should I expect, he is a boy, after all!

So with a boy I should expect him to be non-photogenic?

That McDonald's looks strangely familiar.... Weren't you the one who pointed out to me at the beginning of my TR that there is a DD just down the hall, closer to the gates?

Yes, it was me..... What are you gonna do when your child insists she wants MCeyD's?

Ana looks like such an experienced traveler, rolling her suitcase along behind her.

Ya think??

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter and got to enjoy the beautiful weather we had today...finally!

Thanks!! It was beautiful out!

Oh, and I have to ask...how'd Mel make the adorable Mickeyheads for the countdown calendar? We have another one coming up and Max has made it quite clear that he would like a calendar again and while I could just more or less re-do the one I made for February, I'm also looking for some new ideas.

She used the good 'ol Home Depot Mickey head template. She cut out each head and bow by hand.

Yeah, an update!

I love your Countdown calendar and that you were able to get a good deal on the last hotel night!

I was lucky to find the room. I guess we could of stayed at Mel's cousin's house as a last resort. (they live next to Orlando)

Juliana looks so cute in all the photos and I really adore her smile! Warms my heart!

Thanks!

....... and I love the fact that Melody was bringing her Dooney! Okay, I will be patiently waiting for the next update!

Isn't Disney the best place to sport that bag??

I love how you are going back and sharing a bit of Pretrip info with us, since there wasn't a PTR! I disagree, you are a great writer and are wonderful at sharing pictures, especially of your pretty ladeis!

I just briefly touched on the PTR part... but you have no idea how hard it was to not tell you all!

Thank you for the kind comments!

I love the countdown calender, its so sweet, that reminds me, I still need to make one I've been saying that since I booked it 9 months ago...at this rate it will end up counting down from 5 days or something

It will be easy to make a 5 day calendar! Or just make a huge Mickey head and pull it down when you leave!

great update tim! love the pics with juliana. they would make grumpy smile. i see your well invested in the dooney and burke company as well. i think my dw has eveyone that they came out with.

Well, it was a Christmas gift from me.... Mel is more of a Coach gal. But she really does love that purse. I did good!

Woah! An update!!

I like Tampa's airport. I like how security isn't until you're at the set of gates you want to be at, the lines are always short!

We have never flown out of there, only to there. Maybe we should fly out of there sometime.

 

[that's nice]

Wow, I would have been ticked off....
Glad you were able to work something out though.

That's what I get for just filing away my confirmation email without opening it.

Are you trying to tell me that a McGriddle isn't wholesome??? It is pancake, meat, egg and cheese all in one sandwich. What isn't wholesome about that???

I was playing it up incase Melody read my report.. which she has already lurked on...

Love the name!! I hope you convince Mel to give you that side profile so we can see the little man!

I'll have to see if I can steal the picture we took on Sunday off of FB. I took it with her cell phone.

for the countdown calendar! Does Ana get in on the act of making it or is it just you or Mel?

She helped with the glueing process on this one. She picked out all the stickers and colored most of the Mickey heads on one from 3/09.

I'm sorry to be in the category of "encouraging" you on to complete an update, but I'm so glad it worked!s Now, only how many more days until our next one?

Ummm..... I'm not gonna guess when the next one will be up- hopefully soon!

I think a lot of us have similar stories. The people on the boards here are just way cool.

It was too hard to stay away!

Maybe you should have told them that they needed to find room for you in the Cinderella Castle Suite.

RATS! I should of asked! I wonder what they would of charged me if it was available? Probably more than the Poly theme park view they quoted me!

If there's one thing kids like, it's pulling off Mickey's head.

To quote Bill Cosby from "Chocolate Cake for Breakfast": "It has milk! It has eggs! Nutrition!"

That's great! I'm gonna use that one sometime.

For some reason, this makes me think of a scene from The Naked Gun.

LOL Does that deserve a +1?

Ok, now I know you're making things up. Once you cross the border into Delaware, you are immediately overwhelmed by a sense that you have reached paradise. Who needs palm trees when you have fragmites?

And all this time I thought they were weeds.

At least they had smooth roads through there.....

I see how it is.

Barry your nemisis is naming his child after my nemisis. CONSPIRACY!!!

That's it...I'm naming my next dog Barry.

Maybe I should name my son Trennr?

Joining In! Can't wait to read more!

Thanks for reading!!!

BUMP!

HAHA.... they way you guys were writing here yesterday, I don't think this thread needed a bump!

Mel and I have the same D&B bag pattern!

So do I have good taste?

Ahhh I would have FREAKED OUT about not having the room booked for that day! Good for you for finding the other room!

Our house was not fun to be in for that 45 minutes or so until I found another room....

 

[that's nice]

Love the countdown calendar! Mel did a great job!

That is about the extent of our creativeness over here!

Princess Ana, looks like a major travelling pro!

She is a pro! She is getting some time off now...

oh, you were lucky to get a room so late! sleeping in the car would not be fun

How bad could it be? Sleeping in a car on Disney property?

Off to a great start! Melody did a great job on the countdown calendar. I had to laugh about the Mcd's breakfast being nutritious

McD's wasn't my choice.. I could of had a microwaved egg sandwich from D&D.

Let Julianna know that Puppy has a twin in Delaware named Brownie who I believe has also made the trip to Disney

I hopped on here last night and saw your post and showed it to Juliana. She said that is Puppy's brother!

When we realized that Puppy was 'the one', Mel ran to find another Puppy just incase it was ever lost. She was able to find it and we stored it away. One day we wanted to give Puppy a bath, so we broke out the 'impostor' and made the switch. She knew right away that it wasn't Puppy. We ended up giving her the fake Puppy and she calls it Puppy's brother.

Oh No! was it hard not to post here about your room mishap and then that super feeling you had when you fixed it?

It was hard not posting anything about our trip. I did good keeping my mouth shut though.

and because I well I am addicted to the Dis & not terribly engaged at work today, here ya go:

That is GREAT!!!!!

Hooray for arrival day

We were excited to get out of here... it was a long winter.

LOVE the countdown poster that Mel made, it's very cute

Thanks!

Hope you had a nice Easter

We did.... hope you had a nice one too!

Yeah, Delaware roads are so smooth it is like you're driving on air.

Oooooooh, I knew it!

 

[that's nice]

Totally! Tim's Peeps! It doesn't sound cultish, does it? Just think how cool our signatures will look! We'll be the "in" crowd! Great idea Crissy! I cannot stop laughing!

I'm laughing too! That is so funny!

Hi!!! I'm here! Going back to read now

Hey there!!

Good call not bringing Puppy to the parks. We learned that one after losing our son's Dog at Disney.

I cannot imagine what would happen if Puppy was ever lost.

Glad to hear you found a room for the last night. I thought for a minute there you'd have no other choice but to book the Polynesian. You know, if there's nothing else available...

The thing was if I had a code, I would of thought about it. I think knowing that I was paying rack rate and the fact that it was like $500 for one night made me shudder!

Thank goodness you found a room! How stressful!

It could of been worse, but it all worked out in the end.

Your update has made me want to be flying to FL right now! (I mean, even more than I want to be flying to FL typically.)

I know.... I want to be there too!

Love the update! Still have no clue how you kept this a secret!

It was hard to keep quiet... really hard!

Are we waiting for Tim's approval to put it in our siggies - cuz you know that could take some time..... ..... Although since Moira created it I guess we can just use her say so to use it.

I don't care if you use it... just ask the creator!

I'm no waiting for Tim's approval. I just want Moria's.

See, Kathy doesn't care what I say!

Tim, have you accepted your celebrity status yet???

I'm blushing! LOL

 

[mommy2mrb]

well sleeping in a car is no fun, no matter where you are...been there, done that years ago and never want to repeat it!

Megan has a special Kitty she got from my nephew as a baby shower present, has slept with it every night since she was born....luckily it washes up great, she loves it when its clean and smells good.....that's why Ana knew puppy was different, because he didn't smell like himself!

for your next disney trip, let me know and I can cut out a bunch of MH for Mel on my cricut, will save her hands from all that cutting!

 

[Moira222]

I love it!!!! Can I copy it and put it in my signature?

Absolutely!!!

 

[KatMark]

Done. I have a new siggy line.

Here is a picture of Melody that I took on Sunday. Sorry for the quality, I stole it from FB and it was taken with her cell. She is 24 (i think) weeks.

I've done it after pulling all nighters for work. Most. Uncomfortable. Thing. EVER!

I think she did mention the smell! LOL Poor Puppy is loosing his hair now. I should take side by side pics of Puppy and Puppy's brother.

for your next disney trip, let me know and I can cut out a bunch of MH for Mel on my cricut, will save her hands from all that cutting!

You are so kind... thank you!

Oh my word! Mel is gorgeous and glowing! Make sure to tell her how beautiful she looks. I'll bet she's so excited to be a mommy again. What a pretty lady you have there Timmy.

Now, are YOU gaining any weight along with her?? If so, can you post your baby bump pic?? DH gained a little weight with me when I was preggo with my first. Wasn't that sweet of him?

 

[jj0plin]

Mel looks amazing!!

I gained quite a bit when she was prego with Juliana. Mel put on over 60lbs herself. I am being good this time and not giving into my cravings!

Mel looks amazing!!

Thank you!!!

 

[KatMark]

Tim, Mel is absolutely radiant! Everyone should look as beautiful as she does pregnant.
