"Mommy, When Will It Be Our Turn?!"--May 16-23, 2009 PTR

Ooooh I love the Minne "leash". Did you order that from Disney Shopping? I vowed to never put DD in a "leash" either, but I'd really like to get one for our next trip--she's very independent too! I love Target too!! Too bad the nearest one is 40 mins. away in Jackson!

Thanks!! No, it is more expensive there. I ordered it from http://www.securebaby.com. I googled for a coupon code and found one for $5 off so I think my total was around $30 including shipping. Oooh--and that Target in Jackson isn't the best. I go there when I'm visiting my parents who live in Jackson. We have 2 close-by us here in Memphis. I go to the one in Bartlett and the Super Target that's in Cordova. I am in Target WAY too much!!

Well, we are about to leave for Alabama for the weekend so I won't be on as much--but I will be checking in--more at night though. We'll get back Sunday evening.

Another update on the customs--they did not come today. but I checked the tracking and it said: Your item was processed and left our ZIP Code 38199 facility on May 8, 2009. I'm pretty sure that's a shipping facility here in Memphis so they SHOULD be here tomorrow. Too bad I won't be. Uggh! Guess I'll get my neighbor to get the box for me.

But something else DID come today!! Katie (DWGal210) wanted to spread some Disney magic and offered to make the girls custom autograph books for our trip!! Well they came today along with a BUNCH of other goodies!!! Thank you soooo much Katie!!! Ally was soooo excited (Claire was napping at the time). I took a bunch of pics and will post them tonight when I have more time. Katie--you really brightened the day for my girls after STILL not getting their outfits. So THANK YOU!! They were BEAUTIFUL!! And Ally has been playing with everything else since!!

Now off to pack!!

Well, we finally made it to my in-laws house here in Alabama!! Brent decided he wanted to take a "new way" home. Instead of arriving at 7:45 as planned, we didn't get here until 8:30! I was about sick of riding in the car---as were the girls! We almost hit 2 coyotes that ran out into the road--uggh!! My heart was pounding. But we made it here safe and sound.

Here are the pictures (as promised) of all the goodies that Katie sent to my girls!!

Ally opening the goodies

posing with her new Ariel autograph book (notice how her Ariel nightgown coordinates)

look at all these goodies (each girl got an autograph book, book of stickers, Hannah Montana word magnets, Disney bags, Mickey head straws, and Disney magnetic castles with Disney characters)

Hi, Becky! I'm the one who just ordered the bows from you tonight. It's so neat to see you here and learn more about you. It looks like we have a lot in common! I'm enjoying this thread. Loved Ally's AG bow! And that pic in your siggy...we have a few of those princess dolls and my 3 year old adores them.

YAY!! Hi Julie!! Glad you made it over to my PTR!! It's been great "talking" to you via e-mail tonight!! Yes, I just e-mailed you about my AG bows when you said you had some AG girls!!

What a great job Katie did! The autograph books are just precious!!! I love Ally's excitement as she opens the bag!

Enjoying reading all your fun planning and preparing. We didn't prepare as much for this trip as our trip to WDW. Kinda miss all the fun planning but then again it's fun to wing it a little too. Can't wait to see all the cute pictures.
