I know this one!

If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands.
If you're happy and you know it, your face will surely show it.
If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands.

If you're happy and you know it, stomp your feet.
If you're happy and you know it, stomp your feet.
If you're happy and you know it, your face will surely show it.
If you're happy and you know it, stomp your feet.

If you're happy and you know it, shout hooray.
If you're happy and you know it, shout hooray.
If you're happy and you know it, your face will surely show it.
If you're happy and you know it, shout hooray.

If you're happy and you know it, do all three.
If you're happy and you know it, do all three.
If you're happy and you know it, your face will surely show it.
If you're happy and you know it, do all three.

Though someone probably already beat me to it!

Beth -- You were the first to do all the verses, though! When I teach it to 3 year olds we omit the shouting part and sing "jump up high" instead. Makes use of gross motor skills and keeps the studio noise down to a dull roar

well, i'm not stalking anyone or anything..lol

I just got back from my WDW trip..

I live in PA, and we drove down to WDW and stayed at all-star music from the 17th-22nd of dec..
Was very nice, my first trip there (i had been to disneyland before though)

The parks are HUGE! lol
I was alittle upset i didn't see any shirts that looked made from here i had my camera with me the whole time and was just waiting to take a pic and post it up here..lol

One thing i thought was real cute..
On the bus to MK one morning there was a little girl about 5-6yr old.. with her mom and dad.
We were all sitting near the front of the bus..

As we rounded the corner and saw the castle she jumped up and down and said there was where cinderella lived..then she paused and said "where she lived if she would have been real."

her dad said "what do you mean she is real"

you should have seen her face! lol
her jaw dropped and she said "you mean she's really real? can we go see her?"

Dad quickly recovered and replied "well shes real busy and she and prince charming can't see everyone" and his daughter was like "He's real too??"

And what did dad reply?

"Of course he is.... your mother married him"

Even the bus driver laughed at that one..lol

I can't say for sure because we started with a 2BR , (had 6-7 ppl.) but one of the main reasons we bought DVC was because we don't prefer a "regular" hotel room for the 4 of us (YMMV), let alone trying to deal with a sofa bed, so we always planned to use at least a 1BR. I think it's great that you can use a studio because that saves more points for the next big trip! I am sure no matter what you do, you will have a ball!

Paul - no offense regarding the reservation options, just my thoughts.

None taken, I have big shoulders anyway..

you'll still be able to DIS right?!?!?

I wanted to tell you something funny - when I saw you on the weight loss thread - I was confused as to why you thought you needed to lose weight -

even though I KNOW that is Aurora with Terra in the picture - that is the picture of you that I have in my head (yea - I know I am dork)

I always think the same thing tmfranlk

Hello everyone -- imagine my surprise this morning when I logged on to see Paul's new signature..... I think its cute!!!

Glad to see everyone is well. Skunka gets Matt on the bus every morning, bus promptly picks him up at the end of the driveway at 8:35. I do see the highschoolers out there very early! I'm just glad the elementary kids don't start so early!!!

Has everyone taken Christmas decorations down? Or did some wait for today (little Christmas)? I always get bummed out taking them down....

Beth -- You were the first to do all the verses, though! When I teach it to 3 year olds we omit the shouting part and sing "jump up high" instead. Makes use of gross motor skills and keeps the studio noise down to a dull roar

We've been known to change "shout hooray" to "whisper hooray" ourselves!

Have you used this one with your 3's?

Tune: Skip to my Lou

Swing, swing, swing your arms.
Swing, swing, swing your arms.
Swing your arms, my darling.

(Also use "clap your hands", "stomp your feet", "pat your head", etc.)

Or this one we like to use at the holidays (we're at a church-based school, so we celebrate Christmas). We always hand out bells/shakers with this one, too.:

Tune: We wish you a Merry Christmas

Let's all do a little shaking.
Let's all do a little shaking.
Let's all do a little shaking and spread Christmas cheer!

(Continue with other movements)

Awww, thanks!

Kate, I've always taken my vitamin at night. I learned that right away...it makes me way too queasy, so I have to sleep on it. I had terrible heartburn from my second trimester on with Alyssa, but so far I haven't noticed that or acid reflux. You're a good Queen for checking on this for me.

My sinuses have been a mess for three weeks Dumby, so maybe that's catching up with me.

I just want it to go away. I feel like I've been licking the flatware!

Amy

Amy I hope you're feeling better.

I have one question... Flatware?? WHat's that?

It was pointed out to me that i should have told people HOW to optimize the pics..hehe that completely skiped my mind!
thanks for the heads up!

Simply go here..
http://www.gifworks.com/cgi-bin/gifworks.pl?com=transfer_open
and upload the pic by either adding the pic URL (address) to brouse to the pic saved on your harddrive.
Then fetch or upload!

Then click the "optimize" and reduce colors..

example here..
http://www.gifworks.com/cgi-bin/gif...mg=DDALOGO1_24771.gif&orig=DDALOGO1_24771.gif

you can do a reduction of 27%-30% or so and still look the same..
Click the one you want... then right click it and "save as" and then you can save the pic to your harddrive and upload it to photobucket or whatever site you use!

Again thank for the PM..can't believe i forgot to give a link to a site to do it..hehe
