Amber and Ashley -- I can't wait to see you guys again next week!!

ETA: Ashley, Lyzzie is flabbergasted that you've never seen Fantasmic. She can't wait to go see it with you, and ride TSM too.

I can't wait either! I know, isn't it crazy that I haven't seen Fantasmic?!

Sorry you couldn't sleep last night. I've been having trouble sleeping too. I don't know if it's this new medication or what. If you are on too high a dose it can send you into hyperthyrodism (I have hypo) and one of the symptoms of that is insomnia. It's ok though because one of the other symptoms is you get skinny. I will keep my problems to myself until the doctor does the blood tests........

(Vicodin, can you believe that, for a tooth???)

Oh no, I'm glad Mike is doing better! When I had my wisdom teeth out it was bad news, but they were impacted. I think Vicodin is pretty common for tooth pullings. I can't take it because it makes me throw up (not a good thing when you just got teeth pulled and have stitches in your mouth.) Actually, when I had a tooth pulled a couple years ago, they actually get me percoset and that didn't even begin to touch the pain. Of course my tooth was absessed so I think that's the reason why. ANYWAY, sorry about that long ramble......... Hope Mike feels better soon.

 

[Tinkerbell_Girl]

Lyzziesmom, Have fun on your trip! I hope you have a better night tonight.

Amber, That's great that Mike doesn't really need the medication! I had the same experience with Vicodin as Ashley.

Ashley, I saw Fantasmic for the first time last year and it was so good! You'll love it!

I'm jealous that you all are going to meet! I can't wait to see all the pictures!

 

[Linzybrooke]

Amber, I played the Trumpet too. I loved it, until I got braces! Hope Mike's recovery goes well!

I am so jealous of the three of you ladies headed off to WDW! Think of me and Nicole while you are there!

Chris and I have been doing all Connor's laundry so we are ready when he gets here. Would you believe that we only have one Mickey onesie? Bought it at WDW this summer, and it is so cute. But, it was wierd to realize that since I just assumed we had other Mickey stuff!!!

Hurray for the arrival of this long weekend!!!!!

 

[DisneyGirl4188]

Hey All!

Lin, only one Mickey outfit???? We have to do something about that!

I had braces too and it did make playing not so fun.

Mike is doing well. He didn't have any of the issues I had, but he did take a few pain pills. I couldn't take anything when I had my tooth pulled, so I was shocked that he had Vicodin.

Spencer is 18 months old today!!! I can't believe it.

I hope everyone is having a nice holiday!

 

[hellokitty86]

Hey girls!!

I've been running around all day doing last minute things for our trip. I can't believe we are leaving tomorrow!!

Amber, text us when you get to DHS Wednesday! Or you can text me before and we can plan a time & place to meet up.

Hope you guys have a great week!!!

 

[Tinkerbell_Girl]

I hope you all have a great trip, I can't wait to see the pics!

 

[Tinkerbell_Girl]

How was everyone's trip?

 

[DisneyGirl4188]

I forgot to update.

Wednesday was fun. Mike got to ride a bunch of stuff (he usually skips TOT and RNRC because he doesn't want to ride alone). We ate at Sci-fi for the first time; it was pretty good.

Spencer wanted to walk pretty much the whole day. He really seemed to like Emma; he kept giving her hugs. He was also fascinated her Jibbitz.


Nicole and Lin, how have you been?

 

[Linzybrooke]

Well, we wished we were at WDW with you guys!

Can't complain too much! But, Chris and I went to the doctor on Friday and Connor is already over 8lbs! I have to see a specialist this week to confirm weight, and if he really is that big they are going to have to discuss options for delivery, as I am too small to carry him to term without really hurting myself. Will know more Thursday night.

Share pictures of your trip ladies!!!

 

[DisneyGirl4188]

Lin, late ultrasounds are often wrong, so hopefully he isn't that big. They said Spencer was going to be over 9lbs and he was under 8.

I was induced though and it wasn't that bad. They used Cervadil instead of Pictocn (which I hear can be horrible). With the Cervadil, I was able to walk around (they did have to monitor me every so often) and I didn't get an epidural. I did get a shot of Nubain, which just made me not wanting to move, but didn't stop the pain at all, so I don't recommend that.

Keep us posted.

 

[lyzziesmom]

We had a great time on our trip! Sorry I didn't check in sooner, it's been pretty hectic since we got back. Welcome back to reality, huh? It was so much fun meeting up with Amber, Mike, Spencer, Ashley, & Jeremiah. Spencer loved Emma and Emma I think has a little crush on Jeremiah and his spiky hair. I can't believe the trip went by so quickly, it's always so disappointing to be back home.

Amber, I didn't know about Mike's tooth. My dentist likes to prescribe Darvocet for every little thing, even for an x-ray! I have to keep telling him I can't accept it, it would break my contract with my pain specialist which would be a very bad thing. I take Vicodin regularly and have never had a problem with it, it's actually one of the few meds that do help me but it keeps me awake so I can't take it in the afternoon/evening. Bummer.

Lin, I hope everything goes ok with Connor. It's getting close now, isn't it? I had Pitocin with both the girls and it worked fine with no problems. Both times my epidural didn't take all the way though. Yikes! With Lyzzie I had a "window of pain" where I still had feeling on one side, and with Emma I could still walk around and everything, despite getting multiple doses of the epidural (miscommunication between nurses & OB). As long as the baby comes out healthy, it doesn't much matter how it arrives! (Minimizing pain is always a good thing though.)

Well I'm off to head to school. I can't believe Lyzzie's birthday is on Thursday! It really snuck up on me this year. We are frantically planning a birthday party. Me and my stupid promises!!

Today is Jonas' birthday... our kittyboy is one! It seems like we've had him much longer -- probably because he is such a pain in the butt. We love him though!

 

[Tinkerbell_Girl]

I'm glad everyone had fun! I want to see pics! Next year I'll have to come too!

Ashley and Lin, so what did you think of Big Brother? I was happy with Jordan winning. My other reality show, More to Love, let me down, so I'm happy BB didn't!

 

[lyzziesmom]

Nicole, I hope we can ALL go next time! Ashley and I have pretty much decided that next time will definitely be in the winter. It was HOT.

 

[hellokitty86]

Hey girls!!!!

We had such a fun time in WDW. It was so much fun meeting up with Amber, Mike, Spencer, Lyzziesmom Lyzzie & Emma! I wish everyone could've been there. We will have to plan that for next time!!!

I agree- the next trip has to be in the winter. It was SO HOT it was ridiculous! You would think, being from Florida we would be used to it but nope! It was like we were melting!

We loved eating at 'Ohana, Le Cellier and Boma. Sci Fi and Tony's were both gross, and Coral Reef was just ok. My steak was dried out & our view was horrible so that was disappointing!

I have a bad cold now that I guess I picked up in WDW. Jeremiah & I are actually both sick. I'm supposed to be going out to dinner for my aunt Melanie's birthday tonight, but I'm not sure how I can. I know she'll be disappointed if I don't though!!

Nicole- Jeremiah & I were both happy that Jordan won BB!! Of course we weren't very happy Natalie got $50,000 because we couldn't stand her. We were shocked Jessie didn't give Natalie his vote! I'm sad the season is over, it's my favorite show. But Survivor, Dancing with the Stars and Biggest Loser is on now, so that's alot of fun!

Lin- you are getting so close with Connor! Have you heard any more news about his size?

 

[Linzybrooke]

Nicole, totally happy with the result, minus being happy for Natalie...I want to slap her. Is that wrong of me?

Went to the specialist today and they confirmed that he is indeed up over the 8lb mark right now. We see our regular OB tomorrow, and we will discuss what she wants to do. She is worried about complications later in life if we try to deliver normally and just let it go until my due date.

Glad you all had such a wonderful time in FL!

 

[lyzziesmom]

Lin, best of luck at the OB today. It looks your little (big) boy may be here sooner than expected! You must be so excited. I can't wait to "meet" him!

 

[lyzziesmom]

At this very moment (11:57am) 11 years ago, my precious baby girl was born. Happy birthday Princess Elyzabeth!!

 

[Tinkerbell_Girl]

happy birthday lyzzie!!!!!!

 

[Tinkerbell_Girl]

Ashley and Lin, I can't stand Natalie either. She didn't deserve the $50,000 at all.

Ashley, I hope you feel better!

Lin, so it looks like Connor might be here sooner than expected. I can't wait to meet him too!

 

[hellokitty86]

Happy Birthday Lyzzie!!!!
