Afternoon ladies!! Whats shakin? I am happy as a clam today. probably because I pooped, and I dont feel like total crap...

We went to the dealership to get our plates.. they have only been in for a week or so. But this TOTALLY HOT salesman put them on our car... YUM. I was like DANG! Why didnt we buy from HIM??? You know Im looking all hot with my 3yo hanging on my hip, and a big ole baby belly sticking out.. But I had a nice time watching him put on the plates.

Then we went looking at halloween costumes. Mikalah will either be a spider, a cheerleader, a princess, or a witch. Or maybe all 4. Alex wants to be Anakin Skywalker, from the Clone Wars.. No OTHER one. So I think I am going to do a little checking online for a good costume.

Then we went to the Ram for lunch. YUM! Now hubby is sleeping, and I am chillin on the puter. I need to do some laundry..

Get free admission to Disneyland in 2009 on your birthday.

yep, I had that in my email a few days ago. One could only hope that we will be there on one of the four birthdays in my family.

The cool part, you can apply the value of the free ticket to another ticket media.. great deal if you need an AP!

Q: Can I upgrade my free birthday ticket to another ticket type?

A: Yes, you can be upgraded on your birthday to a ticket type of equal or greater value. However, you are responsible for any additional cost, and the new ticket may be used only by you.

Q: I am an Annual Passholder (or have a valid Multi-Day Ticket that I will use for admission on my birthday in 2009), so I don't need to take advantage of this offer. If I register, is there anything else I could receive on my birthday?

A: Yes, you have several options which are available for you to select once you arrive at the Park with your confirmation message and your proper ID. You can receive:

A birthday fun card in an amount equal to the price of a 1-Day/1-Park ticket* for you to use on your birthday for merchandise, recreation or fun activities at select participating locations at Disneyland® Resort; or
A special birthday FASTPASS® ticket+ for certain attractions at the Theme Park you visit on your birthday; or
A 1-Day/1-Park ticket for you to use any time until your next birthday.

sure why not?
Pricing, planning, researching but not actually buying is an excellent idea.

I look out for special deals/offers, never know when an awesome deal comes along that will work within a budget.
Right now it's too much temptation to even look. I'm going thru vacation withdrawals, when we have a warm sunny day I am fine.. but the days of having to pull jeans and a sweater out of the closet.. booohooo hoo. The idea of winter cold and no chance of escape is hanging over me. YUCKY!

Hubby and I agreed when the winter depression/ stir craziness starts that we will walk at the mall more often. Mall of America has skylights in the center area, small trees and even floral shows in the dead of winter.. it will help alot to lift the mood.

Hey Bernice! We are looking at going back to Disneyland when the babies are about a year and a half.. For the Halloween time stuff. Should be a good first family trip for them. Thats when we took Mikalah for the first time, and I think she did.... okay.

Hubby said we need to stay at the GCH... Because with all those kids, we are going to need a quick getaway. Ummmmm... I dont THINK that will be in our budget dear.

yeah I don't think GCH would be workable .. besides with your new family sze, you wouldn't all fit in a regular room

go to a suite hotel-- Residence Inn or something, hopefully with a free breakfast and a kitchen.. and a seperate living room area for the two of you in the evening

I know! I told him we would have to stay in a suite somewhere... So we shall see... He still wants to stay onsite. Spaz..

Im hungry. HEY!!! It HAS been 4 hours since I last ate. I think thats a record!

 

[funnygarcia]

on second thought... myabe the private time in evening wouldn't be a good idea




hmm, 18 months.. that's a fun age. Able to eat table foods, mobile but still stroller age. By then you will have a good routine.

Sounds like your body is adjusting to all the changes.

Are you kidding??? Once we are totally sure the babies are okay, and everything will be fine... Im cutting his nuts off. I mean... He is having the old snip-snip. PLUS... If I HAVE to have a C-section, I am getting my tubed tied. Burned... Completely removed... Whatever.

Thanks Mary Jo!

hmm, let's see.. I estimate the 250 pages to be by Tuesday morning-- unless we suddenly get a hyena party going sooner than that

I hope so. I am starting to feel better. Except for the fact that I look like a whale!

Come one Bernice... You and me! Lets do it!

 

[staley7580]

I am wondering if this would be useful enough to get me through the next few weeks without buying maternity clothes... What do you think?

sounds like a plan

Hubby had his done at Planned Parenthood. Odd I know, but they do a good job -- low cost. There were protesters outside the clinic. One of his work friends (a female) drove him, they were shouting at her "Don't do it!"
hubby thought it was hilarious! Then he walked out of his appointment, umm he wasn't laughing after that



Ice packs and tylenol. Make sure he does the "post test" count, I've heard of couiples who didn't do the test and got a little surprise.

NICE! I was watching this show.. and the guy was AWAKE while having it done. OMG.. I was for sure they knocked them out for that! I almost started to feel bad for making him do it.. But then I look down.. Not really so guilty anymore.

Never tried one, heard about it long after I had kidlets and wished they had it when I was preg the first time round... you know, when i was skinny.

yep, It's an outpatient procedure with no anesthesia.
They numb it all up, "arrange" the parts on the surgical drape /field (that part hubby was unhappy about, female nurse and all).Incision (more like a poked hole) on each side, they cut and cauterize .. done.

No sitiches, just a bandage... and ice. I think he wore an athletic supporter right afterwards. Hubby doesn't remember.
