I did!!! Myself, DH and both of the kids got them. I got scutes. DH and monsters got the regular kind with the strap. That model did not fit me. Med too small, large too big. Oh well, I love the scutes! I like the little bumps in them DH and kids are bumpless!

Have a safe trip tomorrow. My first trip was 6/04. Everything will be so overwhelming and spectacular. Your teeth will dry out from smiling so much!!! Enjoy!

And as much as she LOVES driving through the state of Georgia, she is going to drive through it wet!! That oughta make her appreciate this state more. We are supposed to get showers for the next couple of days.

Both kids are coming down with colds DS told me yesterday he had a throat! I am drugging them regularily to try and help the nastiness move along. Check this out.

On our first trip to WDW, DS came down with an ear infection, BUT we only found this out, cause we were already at the emergency room getting 2 stitches in his lip when he fell at the Contemporary. It was our first night!!!

Denise

Oh my goodness !!! I hope they get over their little colds fast. No fun to go to DisneyWorld being sick !!

And to have to sit in the ER on the first night of your first trip to Disney ? What happened ?

Sorry if this is long. Ok, here goes. FAINT OF HEART BE WARNED We were finishing eating at Chef Mickey's and Joe, my DS was getting restless, so when I finished, I took him out into the hotel lobby area outside the restaurant. He was about 2.5 yo at the time. Joe was really wound up and got his hand loose from mine, started running, and just as I started to grab him, felt his shirt in run across my fingers, he smashed his face into the metal arm of one of those benches that sit in the lobby. He started crying hysterically. Without knowing what the damage was or if there was any, I picked him up and held him tight. Next thing I know, the guy selling DVC is running towards me and I feel something warm running down my arm. There was massive amounts of blood running down my arm and on my clothes, etc. I, surprisingly remained calm. It could not have been more than a couple of minutes after it happened when a vacationing paramedic on his way to dinner at Chef Mickey's came over and offered assistance. An EMT also stopped. Then a several minutes after that, the manager of the hotel came by, shortly followed by 2 uniformed paramedics. The response was quick and overwhelming. Finally, DH and DD waundered out trying to locate me and realized that we were in the middle of this swarm of people. They got me ice and towels and we got the bleeding to slow down to a trickle, and Joe calmed down after a bit. They sent us to an after hours pedicatric emergency clinic actually. There they put a little vest on him to hold him down and put two stitches in his lip. That is when I lost it. DH stayed in the room with him while DD went with me to quietly lose it in the women's bathroom. Got some antibiotics for the lip and ear infection. The next day, he was back to running around like a crazy person, seemingly unphased. Kids are resilient eh?

That is my story and I am sticking to it.

WOW !!! It seems like you were in the right place at the right time ( not for the fall of course !). I am glad you had everyone there to help. I probably would not have known which way to turn ! So glad he was back to normal the day after.

It is amazing what kids can bounce back from !

ohhh no poor little guy and what a first night!!!

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

BYEEEE K&Ls mom!!!

BYEEEEEE AAP!!!!!!

you guys have safe travels and keep the park ready for us!!!!

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

since they said that the POP rooms were run by sensors?? i'm assuming htat if you just have a balloon in your room, since they keep moving around will keep the sensors going and thus not turn the air off??? i don't know, like i said in the 4 or whatever times we've stayed there we ALWAYS get a different room and we've never had cooling issues. And i like the room under 73* it feels great to get in from a HOT HOT day at the parks and just get that wind TO HIT YOU!!

Although I like my room freezing cold and never remember having to "rig" anything. Unless, they changed something

On the thermostat, push the power button and the down arrow (button that adjusts the temp) at the exact same time. If you do this correctly, you will see the letters "bp" where the temp normally shows. You are now bypassing the sensors in the room. You can then set the temp to whatever you want and it keeps the room that cold whether you are in it or not. The maintenance man said that you might have to do this once a day as the thermostat tends to go back to sensor mode after 24 hours. We found that it stayed on bypass for a couple of days at a time. It was great to come back to a cold room or not wake up in the middle of the night in a sweat again. The CM that did this for us said it was not a problem doing this as they do it for people all the time.
