Hi Amber! That is one of my favorite quotes!

Happy Birthday Spencer!

 

[DisneyGirl4188]

Thanks!

I love the cakes that were posted earlier! I am waiting for him to wake up now and then we will have his party a little later.

My daddy has always told me. I'm 45 this year and daddy is still the smartest person I know.

Hi everyone!

Amber- How was Spencer's party? Awesome title!

Hi NC State!

Steven and I had a great time at the rodeo, I saw a group of cows and sheep and many had Disney names like- Lilo, Sleeping Beauty, Tinkerbell and so on. It was a nice touch of Disney at the rodeo! On Thursday, I'm going to the Brad Paisley concert and will try to take pics! Steven got a fried twinkie, it was a little different!

 

[NC State]

Sounds like fun...I'm sure you have a lot of rodeos in Houston.

 

[DisneyGirl4188]

Hey All!

Welcome NCState!

Nicole, glad you had a good time at the rodeo. My SIL's ex roped cattle, but I have never been to a rodeo.


Well, Spencer had a great time at his party. He was hesitant about the cake at first, but quickly warmed up to it. By the time he was finished, there was just a pile of crumbs and icing. I'll have to get some video uploaded so you can see him; it was quite comical.

He did great opening presents too.

Here are some pictures (the icing on his forehead is from someone who thought it wasn't a party unless he was covered in icing )

Those pics are too funny!

Hi guys! Did everyone remember to spring your clocks ahead last night? I went out after work last night with my friend and a TDS coworker, it was lots of fun but because of the time change it got late REALLY fast. The weather turned icky (rain rain and more rain, and then some hail) so I opted not to drive. I could hardly sleep because I was worried about my poor little car left all alone at the mall in the hail! I hope it's ok. I told my mom this morning when she brought the girls home that I'll need a ride to my car, and she was so funny. "Uhhh... ok. Care to elaborate?"

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPENCER!!
I love those pictures! The girls love them too. We noticed that he is finally getting some hair! My favorite pic is the 2nd to last, with all the cake everywhere. He looks like he was really having a ball!

Due to the bad turn of weather (it's still soaking wet and 40 degrees) we obviously will not be going to the zoo. I'd love to get some things done around the house but my folks are putting down tile in the basement -- I have no idea why but they seem to think it will help with the seepage issues we've been having? -- and they are really bothering me so I want to get out of the house. We might have to go to the movies8555555555555555555557 (Sorry for the numbers... that was Jonas saying hi.)

Ashley: I love that "friend" pic, that is too funny!

Hi NC State! Sounds like your daddy is a wise man.

Hi everyone!!

I just had a whole long post with replies to everyone and my computer died. That'll show me not to plug in the charger before I start typing long replies!!!

Welcome NC State!! Come and chat with us anytime. Congrats on your weight loss! Do you have any secrets to share? (ETA, regarding weight loss of course!)

Amber, I love love love love love love LOVE the pictures of Spencer!! His little outfit is adorable, it looks like you were prepared for him to get messy!! I agree with Lyzziesmom, I see he's starting to grow some hair! Don't worry, my hair didn't start growing for a LONG time when I was born, but my hair is so thick now you wouldn't even know! My Mom was always so concerned I'd be a 5 year old with a bald head, but that didn't happen!! I didn't think the cake looked weird at all!! Love the dinosaur theme.

Nicole, glad you had fun at the Rodeo!! I've never been to one, I don't think they have them much in Florida...atleast not in my area. Ohh, fried twinkie sounds interesting! I've had a fried snickers before at a county fair and it was delicious!!

Lyzziesmom, sorry about the weather! Did you get your car home safe? How was the split shift at TDS? Have fun at the movies!

Well, we didn't make it to the pug meet. It was this morning and DST made us not want to get out of bed! I'm not too sad though, they have them pretty often. I'm feeling alittle better after my cold, the cough has kicked in though. Unfortunately its starting with Jeremiah now though! And you guys know how men are when they get sick.

I'll check in later- hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday!

 

[Linzybrooke]

Hello friends!

Nicole, I love the names! I can just picture a cow named Tinkerbell... We saw Brad Paisley in August, he puts on a heck of a show!

Amber, those pics are ADORABLE! He is so cute! Looks like he had a great party. (In my opinion, any occasion with cake is a great one!)

Lyzziesmom, hope your car was alright when you got to it! Sorry you didn't make it to the zoo.

Hi NC State!

 

[hellokitty86]

Hey Lin! Hope you are having a wonderful Sunday!

I got up from a nap about an hour and a half ago....Jeremiah still hasn't gotten up! We laid down around 4:30. He normally hates naps so I think the cold has officially caught up to him. I'm debating if I should wake him up to make sure he can sleep tonight, or let him keep sleeping.

I thought I was feeling better but today we went to Sawgrass Mills (a huge outlet mall) and it just completely wiped me out, I think I pushed it too far!!

 

[DisneyGirl4188]

Hey All!

Lyzziesmom, I hope your car was ok!

Ashley, I hope you are feeling better soon (Jeremiah too).


We went to T-Rex today. Spencer LOVED it! The food was great too. They even brought out ice cream and sang to him.

 

[Linzybrooke]

Hey Ashley, sorry you guys are feeling yucky.

Amber, is T-Rex the same as Rainforest Cafe? We tried to figure it out when we went in October, but our brief run-through to see the decor was a bit crowded.

Amber, are you talking about that restaurant at Downtown Disney?? That place looks so cool, I can't wait to try it out!!

 

[DisneyGirl4188]

Yes, T-Rex is in DTD. It's similar to RFC, but I thought the food was better. We sat in the fire section. There is also an ice cave (it changes colors) and a jungle section similar to Rainforest. They have a meteor shower; you can watch meteors collide on the ceiling. I'll try to get pictures uploaded soon.

We got the sampler appetizer (bruscetta, onion rings, chicken quesadillas, queso dip). It was huge. The quesadillas were at least 1/2 in thick. I had a paleozoic chicken sandwich and loved it. The rest had a double burger (forget the name). It was massive. My MIL had to eat hers with a fork.

Yum!!! The food sounds so good. I'm starving right now! I guess my appetite is coming back! Can't wait to see the pics!
