The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 3

[UP Disney]

Imagine me really whining here (because I am ): I don't care what other people think when they look at me, I still feel fat. Why don't I feel cute this time around????!!!!

Amy

I would say because you have another little one at home that you are running around after and you are feeling like a fat Mommy rather than a young pregnant woman. At least that is how I felt the second time around.

Speaking of my being pregnant, I just have to say, I feel fat.

When I was pregnant with Alyssa, I felt cute all the time. When I look back at pictures, I wasn't that cute, but at least I felt good.

Now, I just feel fat. And Kevin has a way with words, "You're not fat, you're pregnant." Thanks honey.

Amy

He could tell you that you are "glowing" and you wouldn't like it anymore. Darn husbands anyway!!!! They just don't understand! My DH actually sat and ate my breakfast when I was in labor with my first DD and ate my dinner when I was in labor with my second. He still doesn't understand why it upset me. Hey, if I couldn't eat, why should he??!!

Here's a better shot of Lizzy and Emma's Pooh....

ADORABLE!!!!

When I had my first my water broke around 6PM. The nurses told my DH to go home and rest-it was going to be a long day the next day. And he WENT HOME. Got back to the hospital about 6:40am and she was born at 8:30am. For 2nd he had it the roughest. My water broke at 3:30 ish am, brought Lizzy to his mom's house, and Joe was born at 12 noon. He complained the whole time that he couldn't sleep in the lounge chair-I think he wanted my bed. For Emma he brought me for a scheduled induction early in the morning and then went back to his mom's because Joe was sick even though I had already called my sister to help his mom out. He got back to the hospital at 11:30 and she was born at 2:00.

Amy-I don't have any advice because I never felt cute pregnant. I remember missing being pregnant after I had Lizzy. I think I was just so overwhelmed being a new mom. I never missed being pregnant after I had Joe or Emma. Be sure to take it nice and slow at Disney. I went 6 months pregnant with Emma and had a great trip. I found walking down the monorail ramps very challenging pregnant with her. I carried her very low. I couldn't have gone much later so I can understand why you don't want to go on the DDA trip. Though I'm sure we could all take turns pushing you around in a wheel chair.

Under the feet? What does this do?

I guess like reflexology your feet have points connected to all parts of the body and we always just did that from when I was a kid!!

Funny all this crocs talk as I want to get some for the summer and our November trip. I found a UK site that sells them and have been listening to all your size talk - but uk sizes are different to us ones so I'm still wary about ordering online!

I was just reading the Sunday paper and they do a celebs are wearing feature - and apparently crocs are going to be big over here this summer... at the bargain price of £35!!! They're much cheaper in the states... wish I'd bought some last year then I could have been a trend setter

Reminds me of when I was in switzerland in 1984 and the swatch watch had just come out, they were so cheap there and we laughed and joked they looked like toy watches from lucky dips until we got back to SA and saw everyone going crazy for them and paying a fortune!!! We could have been trend setters too!!!

I'll have to try that next time someone is sick. Anything's worth a shot!

he was very sweaty all night - but he did sleep through the night - he seems better today but still holds his head and says ow or eyes hurt

DH also has a nice big black eye to go with the cuts - he leaves on a business trip tonight - that should make quite an impression!! Julia also has spent the entire morning saying "Sorry Daddy" she feels so bad and he knows it was an accident and was never even mad at her - she just looks at his face and how horrible it looks and feels bad!

Glad to hear he slept thru the night and hopefully will feel better today after some more meds.

I wish!!! Life of a Realtor..maybe if I do something "special" for Bill he will go in my place!!

It always works for me...

It's a time factor thing...work is about 3 hours long...and well, you know...

With my second I was huge, strangers would stop and ask if I was expecting triplets..........every appointment I would confirm that I only had one in there.
They must have thought I wanted 3!!!
With number 1 you couldn't see I was preggi until 7 months to totally different experiences!!

Kate and whoever else ordered those WDW DVD's from eBay a while ago, do you like them? Who did you get them from?

We do like them - I am not sure he sells them on ebay anymore - but his website is on the dvd's - when I get my lazy butt off the couch - I will check it for you!

We live in a small towna nd I am so tired of the same old place and the smae old clothes and all the kids dressed alike. I wanted some thing different, but I guess that is not meant to be.

I am off to the gym when it opens at 1 and them back to get Grace to shop for clothes at Traget and Old Navy!

Our stores do not open til 1:30 on Sundays! It is the LAW! Some old time Law because of church! You should see the people lined up outdie of stores waiting for doors to open! Especially places like Lowes!

Walmart is open becuase they sell groceries, but you cannot buy hardlines til after 1:30, they have it roped off with caution tape!! Ahh the south!

If you came further south you would not have that, we can buy anything except alcohol early on Sundays.

Now my FIL used to put some on his tongue but I've never been tempted to try that one!!!

So I did do some Croc shopping today...

REI, Sports Authority, Dicks & SHoe Carnival only had the Beach style. Guess the Niles haven't hit the stores yet.

I bought Julia pink croc knock offs at wal-mart today - she has not taken them off her feet and told me they are the best shoes EVER!!!

I guess they sell well there b/c there weren't many left - she got the last pink pair in her size - I was bummed they didn't have purple b/c I would have bought those too - I might have to go check out some other wal-marts for them!!

When DH saw them he said - I love those!! I guess maybe I will get Nick a pair -

We got our knockoffs at Payless Shoes. They had a lot of nice colors as well. I got a really pretty blue. They are really comfortable. I've read that people like them as much as the real Crocs but I want to try the real ones myself to see. I have the kind that are similar to the Beach Crocs.

I did the same thing for my twins. Leslie loves hers, but Mary isn't too sure, yet. I think they are so cute on those little feet! I had the same problem, in that they only had pink left. I really wanted to get the purple ones, too.

 

[julia & nicks mom]

Which style did they have? How much if I may ask?

they have holes in them - I will post a picture in a little bit - again - when I get my lazy butt off the couch -

actually I did check the DVDs but you have to actually watch it to see it so I have to wait until Barbie Mermaidia is over (sorry - I know you didn't ask that question - DH says I have the problem that I always talk and wite with me stream of thought and often end up off track and confusing others)

The shoes were 8.47
