Ok MeMom, you know I love your TRs and think you guys do such a good job writing them but those posts had just TOO many FEATHERED CREATURES in it! And then the bats right after the feathers! Oh boy, I think I got a little freaked there but I'm good now

Other than those, I love all your AK pictures. It's such an amazing park to photograph and take notice of all the details

 

[MeMom]

As you know, I really want to explore the trails more this trip. Where exactly are the tigers? I'm sure you mentioned it, but I'm still confused.

The Maharajah Trail in Asia. If you are lucky, you will get to see them playing in the water. SO cool!

Thank you! I'll take lots of pics..and they will be dedicated to you in the TR!

Yeah, there were a lot of birds, weren't there? I think birds are pretty.

You know I'm nuts about Animal Kingdom. I have to go find Drew's pictures from that morning, too.

Aw, shucks, tiger pictures just for me! I love it!

I won't tell if you sneak in pictures of your mom...
if you promise you will tell if Jill sneaks in pictures of me!

It's a deal

I love those tigers! Two of them were sleeping when we were there but the third one was pacing a little bit. One of the gorillas at AK had a baby around 5 PM on Friday! We saw the cute little guy(or girl? I don't remember ) on Saturday! We couldn't see him very well though, since his mommy was holding him off in the corner. We could see his little head poking out of his mom's arms though

I somehow missed the tigers this trip...sigh...guess I need a do-over!

The parrots are so pretty! I don't have an issue with birds, but I could never have birds that big as pets. We have cockatiels and it really hurts when they bite. I don't want to imagine what a beak that big could do.

I know for sure that I am in the minority (or just completely and totally alone) on this one, but I think that bats have the cutest little faces. I tried telling Charles that recently, and he looked absolutely horrified. I can't help it, I have a fondness for things that most people find creepy (like bats, and lizards...)

Ah, you know I can't get enough of Animal Kingdom shots!!!

Coincidentally, my dogs are all looking rather like those tigers right now!

MeMom, so funny you should say we could go the Earl of Sandwich when I was thinking Trent might enjoy a steak at Shula's....

 

[wsushocker]

You know what I mean!

I can't wait to see you the 19th...that is if you are still wanting to meet up. You will be getting lots of texts/pics while I'm there!

I would love to meet up with all of them, even though I don't really know wigd or Shocker.

You will really like Wigd.....

 

[VAisforDisneyLvrs]

I love Animal Kingdom! The tigers are just beautiful, and I love the birds!

 

[wsushocker]

Wigd and Shocker are awesome, and not a bit scary, I promise.

​

 

[jillyb]

Ahhhhh....Animal Kingdom.

 

[tinkgurl]

You will really like Wigd.....

Thanks. I just get nervous meeting people.

​

And that's when I'd walk the other way...

Thanks for the pic Shocker! Now I know who to look out for in the Boardwalk Lobby!

 

[manntra]

your AK pictures....I must admit I do have a fondness for those bats although I swear their furry body part is the size of my dog! I think their wings are so intriguing to look at.
So funny you snapped a picture of your neighbors food

I love all the theme and details that goes into AK!
Those bats look like they don't want to be my friend!!
Only you would take a picture of some random people's food!
I could very well use a mickey cutting board.

 

[lmillercrew]

Wow! I missed a lot. I had to go back like 10 pages and find out where you mentioned a second interview. So congratulations are in order for your baby boy. I think, personally, that it can be a weird transition when as a "grown up" you get that first real "grown up" job. Like when you finally graduate college and you are no longer a student? We are students for SO long and then it's like, now what?? Good for him.
It's totally hilarious that you took a picture of a strangers food!

 

[sunny_stace]

Oh crongratulations to Trent! That's awesome! I know it's sad for you Memom but everything will work out just fine I'm sure. At least we live in the age of technology, that makes keeping in touch much easier! And he's a good boy, I'm sure he'll remember to call home!

I love that you took sneaky pictures of your neighbours' food! That is hilarious! Totally something I would do! But I definately skip the bats! Yuck! I am definately scared of bats!

Treasure every day you spend with him. When things get overwhelming and you get exhausted and tired of hearing crying and whining, and when you trip over toys or think you can't stand the sight of another sinkful of dirty dishes, stop and say a prayer of thanks that you have the privilege of being the Mommy to that crying, whining baby who owns all those toys, and that you have a family to mess up a sinkful of dishes.

Have a good day across the ocean, Joo! I've got to get out of here and head to school.

I definitely treasure every moment with him. I feel so lucky to have been given this adorable, happy, giggling, smiling little boy who is so clever and inquisitive! Sometimes I look at him and just feel like I might burst with all the love I have for him. He actually makes me cry tears of happiness I am so proud and happy he is mine - we made him and I brought him into this world!

Over in the UK at the moment they are showing a documentary on a maternity ward - and we have seen babies being born, Mum's labouring etc... last night a baby was born and wasn't breathing as he came out. You could see them working on him. It was hard watching and I was crying my eyes out! It felt like the longest few minutes ever but finally the baby cried and was OK. He has a bit of fluid on his lungs and was making squeaking sounds! He was taken to the special care unit and made a full recovery. After watching I just went and sat in Toby's room and looked at him for a while, then picked him up and gave him a little drink (he's not very well - teeth!).

I can't believe I have a lifetime of happiness with him!

Love your AK piccies - especially the kitchen shopping! I LOVE Mickey kitchen bits!!!
Also love the food pics - I would want to make sure Flame Tree BBQ is one place we eat at next year!

Well it is 8.50am now and I really must start work! I have lots to do this morning, then when that's done I can relax a bit!!!

I even had to have a cup of coffee this morning, not a cup of tea, to wake me up!

Sorry for the long post!!!
