My son's Make-A-Wish trip t

[duquette25]

Sorry I'm falling behind on updating you guys. I went to Ethan's final cario appt this morning and it didn't go so good. I'm a little bummed about it, but there's not much I can do about it. The dr said that the pressures are all still the same, and they're going to try to stretch it out some more before they change his conduit. Ethan's also got to go Monday to his peds dr for some blood work to find out why he's so tired all the time. The dr said that if he's too animic then he'll have to have a trasnfusion, don't really want to do that either, but if it's going to help him, then we really don't have much of a choice. It's just been a pretty crummy day for me. I promise I will get to day 5 hopefully this weekend.

I am sorry you got bad news...

I am not sure exactly what all of that meant, honestly. I think you said "cardio" ?? Is that right?

Anyway...I am praying for you and your family.

And I can't wait to hear more about your trip...when things calm down?

Day 5 was a pretty eventful day. We had horse/pony rides at the village that morning. Well, the boys said they wanted to ride the horse, so we left our villa, and got there a little early so we went to eat breakfast first, then went back to the horses. Well, I got all the paperwork filled out, and they got up on the platorm to get on the horse and they both FREAKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They wanted us to ride with them and we said no but we could walk beside them, HAHA they didn't work either. So, we get off the platorm and Jeremiah keeps saying that he wants to ride he wants to ride. Well the people were so nice, they took one of the horses into the little fenced area for him and OMG he CLUNG to Jason's neck, and poor Ethan he just wanted to pet them and kiss them, he wanted nothing to do with riding them lol. After all of this we headed to Animal Kingdom. The kids LOVED it. All the different things there to see and all the different animlas for them to see, they absolutely LOVED it. LOL this is pretty funny, we were walking one of the trails there and went inside the bird palace, well me and Ethan were walking together and I saw something fly by my face, and I look down and a bird POOPED on Ethan's wheelchair wheel while I was pushing him. The rest of the day Ethan was telling everybody that a bird pooped on his wheelchair. It was hilarious. Needless to say, I don't wanna do that again lol. After we got done at animal kingdom we headed back to magic kingdom to see the fireworks. We kept promising the kids they would see fireworks while we were here, and we took them to see the fireworks. THEY LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was awesome.

This is from the safari ride

Flick

Rafkii again

the petting of the horse lol

Jeremiah on the horse lol

Winnie the pooh ride

parade at magic kingdom

It was pretty cute, one of the fairies (the blue one) lol came up to Ethan and waved her wand over his head it was hilarious. The kids got to watch the whole parade this go around, and I cried the entire time. It was just a wondeful experience that we got to do and to see the HUGE HUGE smiles on my kids faces at this parade, I couldn't help but cry.

Baloo came over and shook Ethan's hand, my camera wasn't fast enough but you can see part of baloo lol

Thanks. I apprecaite that. Yes. My husband helped them up there, Jeremiah tried to climb it by himself, but busted his butt the first try so Jason helped him, then Ethan wanted to sit up there so Jason put Ethan behind Jeremiah so I could take a pic. If they would've fallen off it would've been very ugly. The kids had a BLAST!!!!!!!!!!

All they talk about now is when do we get to go back lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[duquette25]

Sorry again for taking so long to respond to every one and get an update posted. It's been pretty hectic around here. I took Ethan yesterday morning for his blood work, no results yet. Hopefully by Wednesday I'll hear something, if not by then I'll call them Friday. My aunt's mom died Saturday morning, and my nephew's grandmother's newphew was murdered Friday night. I had one of my migrains yesterday so that didn't help. Plus the kids are out of school all week this week, so I'm going to try to spend loads of time with them lol. Anyway onto day 6.

We didn't go to any parks this day, just because we knew we were leaving the next day so we hung out at the village and took the kids to the outlets. At the outlet we went to the kids got to be on the news it was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We met Mickey, Minnie, Belle, Pluto, Goofy, and Santa this day as well. They had the Winterwonderland party at the village that night. It was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We also did the carriage ride with the kids around the village, they LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We also met up with a disboard family LAMBFLOCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We went fishing with them, and something very bad happened while we were fishing. Jason was helping Jeremiah and Jeremiah knocked his sunglasses into the lake. It was all an accident but OMG Jason's sunglasses were 115$. So needless to say Jason was very upset the rest of the day. I gave him my sunglasses. I told him I'd just buy me a cheap pair at wal-mart lol. That's pretty much what we did this day. We just hung out with the kids and wondered around the village.

Jeremiah was able to get this Minnie signed my Mickey and Minnie, it was AWESOME

Jason took the boys swimming as well. Unfortunately I wasn't able to go swimming with them, but it was fun watching them all the same.

That is lambflocks son.

These are the presents they got from Santa
