No, Jen, it is coming! I am so excited. We need to buy the plane tickets ASAWCGTM (as soon as we can get the money) so they won't cost as much. They are about 900 bucks a seat right now, but that would be most of our cost. We'll stay with my naval officer cousin at his house and use the very cheap mass trans in Tokyo........and eat cousin's food. So we just have to get the money for the Disney tickets and of course we will eat out some................

The only other country I've been to is Mexico, so I am a bit nervous, but excited and really happy my kids will have the experience.

When you're in Japan, ask your cousin if he can find you some oh-ko-no-mee-yaki. That's definitely not how you spell it, but it translates loosely to "korean pancakes", and you can get them at these little lunch parlors with soy sauce on top-they're not sweet, they're savory. My DH lived on those all summer when we were there.

She's been better. I don't know if she is comming down with a cold (I hope not) or if her allergies are acting up again. A few months back the Doctor's new PA (I hate her) took DD off of her allergy med. DD then started to get sick, plugged up, ear infections, and broncitis. So supid PA put DD back onto a new and "better" allergy med (her words not mine).

Well after researching the side effets of said "better" med I found out there were several side effects that were most common among children but not listed. Three non listed side effect that affected my daughter: Stomach pains, tingles or numbness in the arms and legs, and excessive bleeding. DD has had 1-2 nose bleeds a week since the "better" med was given. The stupid PA said, "oh it's just the weather". When I complained about the stomach pains she said "Why don't you try and feed you daughter, then she wont be so hungry". When I told her about DD feet, hands, and arms hurting she said " oh it's just growing pains.

But I have taken her of said "better" med and set up an appointment with an allergy doctor. DD appointment is Wed morning but she has to be off ALL allergy med tomorrow. If she has a cold, I then have to reschedule so I hope her "cold" is actually a bad reaction to the outside world or just my dusty house. So I can get her on a med that will actually work for her.

Okay I'm done with my soap box

Have you thought about taking her to a Pediatric Ear/Nose/Throat doctor?

Having gone through the ped and allergist, I've had amazing results with these guys...

I second that suggestion! We have had amazing results as well! For my eldest it was the difference between night and day!

Hi Guys! I'm Back from Vacation!!!

 

[EEYOREMAMA]

I have the Le Cellier soup recipe too, but I have never made it. I LOVE that stuff though.

Karen, you'll be getting to eat it in person next week. How lucky are you!

Would you like me to swipe some pretzel bread for you? Jim and I have been known to do that.

 

[EEYOREMAMA]

Whoa! That was Totally Wicked! I do not normally think of vacuum cleaners as lizard extractors!

Sorry, I fell off the thread a while ago................now just waiting for my breasts to cook (go on and giggle).............

The vacuums really work well. I can't think of squishing them. ICK

I'm going to be very good about the other comment, except be careful.

I wish I was going Monday too!! Heck, I wish I was leaving in a few hours (even if I had to spend every minute between now and then in a frenzy of packing).

How long will you get to be there? Are you planning on going to all of the parks? Anywhere else?

 

[Bbgrizzle]

Hello, ladies.

You are a hoot, jaycns!

It's the cow who jumped over the moon (almost)

How sadly blind am I that I did not see the map of the world on the cow before it was pointed out!!?? Sorry to post and run before. Dh looked over at me and said "If you want to go out for lunch and then have help grocery shopping then this is your last offer." Of course I jumped up and ran out the door!!

What party theme did you all pick out?

Bonnie,

Just wanted to make sure you knew how blind I really am!! And the party theme is.....................???

You are not the only one who did not notice my cow's geographic capabilities.

DH took Ains to get her invitations at Target. We'll go to the party store later this week. We had to get the invites sent out tomorrow to her friends at church. Guess what kind she came home with? Sponge Bob! Brent said the pickins were slim. You can bet she'll not be having a sponge bob themed party though.

We're planning on doing MGM, MK and EPCOT. Of course it will rain, but summer in FL is wet I own 12 Disney umbrellas. EBAY anyone?
We are talking about going to either Blizzard Beach or Typhoon Lagoon (more wet). Mostly I want to hold hands with Jim, eat, drink and worry about my diet on Friday.

It's just a before going back to school/work trip.

 

[Bbgrizzle]
