The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 30

[tinknme]

Congratulations Jennifer, Jeff, & Olivia! Welcome little Virginia, your cry sounded so sweet over the phone

Okay finally able to get on the computer.

So contractions started around 7pm last night. At 10 I decided to try to go to sleep to see if it was true labor or not. Well I never went to sleep. Finally at midnight I called the answering service for the Dr. 30min later I finally get a call back. Okay to head to the hospital. by this time they are 4min apart and a 5-6 on the pain scale.

We got to the hospital around 1:15 I was 4cm.

At 5am I was 5cm,

AT 8:10 When the Dr. checked I was still 5, so we decided to break my water. They broke it at around 8:30.
At 9:30 I was 6-7 completely effaced.
At 10 I was complete.

Virginia Kay was born at 10:12 weighed 7lbs 4oz 20 inches long.

I did it with no epidural or drugs. except for repair. I tore a little down their.


Olivia has been very possessive of her and not wanting any one else to hold her. My mom, Olivia and Jeff's dad finally left.

Now that I have the info posted I am going to take a nap. I have been up since 10:30 yesterday morning.. I will post Pictures later.

so does anyone know what page we started on when they all left?!

I was on page 9618 when I left. You guys were too funny with this posting frenzy you all went on! Keep it up!

My babies were 6 lb. 1 oz. and 6 lb. 5 oz. Katrina was 5 weeks early and Becky was 10 days early. I was lucky because they were also easy deliveries (if that can be said of any delivery).

Nick was 10 days early and he weighed 8 lbs 2 1/2 oz.
Hunter was 5 weeks early and weighed 7 lbs 3 oz.
Colby was 3 1/2 weeks early and weighed 7 lbs 13 oz.

I just looked at the auctions, too! I knew they were ending today, I just didn't remember what time.

I think for $50 each it would be worth selling them. But since I can't sew a stitch my opinion isn't worth much!

Between the price of fabric and embellishments along with his time I wouldn't think that $50 would be worth it. I would guess $80 or more would be the low end.

Well, I have to say we underestimated our October Trippers. I am shocked that some of you are actually attempting to read through all the stuff we posted! I promise we didn't say anything ugly about any of you!

Not Attempting...Been There and Done That

OK, ALL OF YOU WHO JUST RETURNED, HELP!
I read on the "Codes & Rates" board that there is a bounce back running right now that is a % discount on resort rooms. Did any of you hear about that? I need to know how long it will be available for booking and what dates you can book for. Did anybody hear about this??
I called Chanon and she doesn't have any info on it.

I didn't hear anything about it. I'll have to look through the information folder tonight.

I am home from work. The school called & I had to pick Garrett up. He told me last night he had not been feeling well for a few days. This morning he said he felt a little better & went off to school. He is now coughing, has a sore throat & says his chest hurts. The Dr's office closed at noon I bought some medicine at the store & will call the Dr in the morning if he is feeling worse. I wanted to be home today, but not like this.

Denise -- sending lots of prayers to the Fig family and to the doctors for wisdom. Let us know if we can help!

Glynis -- I'm sure I missed you, but it was Rees that loves Donald. He also loves the monorail, and airplanes. I'm sure there are more, but it's been a while since I asked what the Figs favorites are.

Janet -- I hope Garrett feels better! Andrew had a headache yesterday, but felt better this morning, thankfully.

Since I'm over in Fort Worth at a HR conference, it would have been hard to be in two places at once... I'm staying over here because it's too long a haul to go back for the early/late sessions. On the other hand, it might have been nice to have an excuse not to have to sit through these sessions... NOT!! I can't stand it when my kids are sick...

Sending PD to all of those in California and to everyone who needs it!

Jennifer I love this picture! You can see the joy in your face

 

[tinknme]

I promise, I won't tell anyone

when they ask for a recap (and you know they will) let's not tell them that I went a little power crazy

 

[tinknme]

That's ok, I am recapping for those of us that were gone

NO recaps.

 

[UP Disney]

Well it could be because we actually didn't post a lot of nonsense. We didn't have to resort to the alphabet song or other such postings.

Hey I resemble that comment.

I didn't see any bounce backs while I was there. I specifically looked at all the stuff in the room in case they did. I was hoping they would have something for either our March trip or our summer trip with my niece & nephew.

That is what I was thinking.

Okay I know that Vicki posted a list of what she was giving her niece and nephew for their trip. But I can't remember what all she posted.

I think I am just going to plan it like it is me, Jeff, Olivia, Virginia, My mom, Brother and nephew. going then if my cousin does not go oh well and if she does they can tag along on our plans if they want to or not.

So I figure I have over a year to plan. And buy things. I have fat pens for the girls will need to find one for Ryan.

I will make them autograph books and passports.

I think a Disposable camera for Olivia and Ryan.

I might try to make Disney themed coloring books for the plane for the 3 of them.

What else?

My DH and DB would probably not wear tye-dye shirts
Not sure if DB and mom will wear matching shirt designs. But hopefully they will wear the same color at least.

I bought lanyards and a couple of pins (their favorite characters for keepers) for my niece & nephew during our trip this time. I'll buy some traders with Elizabeth's help. I think they may enjoy trading. If not, I'll have the traders for myself.

Welcome back Stephanie, Terry, Chanon, Janet, and Vicki!

I haven't had a chance to look at anyone's Photopass pictures, but the group shots you've been posting on the thread are great!

Thanks for all the compliments on Kevin's Halloween card and the other pictures I posted over the weekend.

I just saw this post from Denise on her CB thread (posted around 2 p.m. EST):

They just called from the OR that Rees will be next. He's had nothing to eat since 10pm. It's been a long day. I'll post when we know something.

I didn't see anything about it, Elizabeth. Then again, I was at the YC during last month's bounce back offer and never saw ANYTHING about it - nothing in the room, nothing on my receipts, no CM said a peep about it, etc.

Maybe someone else will have seen something. I did notice there's some sort of promo up on MouseSavers, but I believe it's for Canadians.

Lindsay - I agree about the Dad from the Travel Channel. But then again, he is probably already familiar with the "taboo" topics. He is one of the ones saying those of us who are disappointed need to get over it. Oh, I see. He made it to the next round but the rest if us shouldn't be disappointed? The Round 2 questions are posted somewhere. I'll see if I can find them.

Like I said, I haven't been keeping up with that thread, but did see where he posted and made some comment about how he was REALLY jealous of those staying the night in the Castle, and he's sure how he would appreciate it more than anyone staying there, etc. I thought to myself "get real!" You've already been on the TC, and are now in the finals for this thing. I think you've already been struck by lightning twice! (And I'm sure he'd probably be lamenting like everyone else if he hadn't been chosen!)

Thanks for posting those questions. Interesting. I'm fairly confident as to what my answers would have been, but I bet they're different than what Disney would want me to say.

Maybe we all need to see if the Unofficial Guide is hiring!

for Garrett! I hope he doesn't get any worse!

Hi, Marci! Hope the conference isn't too boring. Thanks for confirming my Donald suspicions! Sorry that Andrew is feeling under the weather too. I'd bet you anything it has to do with these wild swings in temperature!

Both of my sister's daughters(my niece's) have red hair

Hi Heidi!

I for one, was just talking to Kyle yesterday about how nobody we know with red hair (a lot!) have red-headed siblings. I vote no!

That is better than I had originally thought I would get! So I am happy with that!

no we didn't....we just chatted like the old times. Well me a little more than I used to.

Oh, I'm so glad!!! When I got to the outlet store, they didn't have any Mickey's. They had pirate Goofy, pirate Donald, and several Minnie's. I picked him up a pirate Donald!!! Just waiting for the kids to get home so I can run to the post office and mail it off.

Thanks, Marci!!!
