Here is the luggage I think I'm gonna get:

Either this carry-on

and this duffle

OR

this carry-on

and this duffle

Here is the Emily's luggage. She has the suitcase and the backpack, both with her name in red. They are both toddler sized!

Firstly big hugs for whats happening with your BIL. I would have been mad aswell so I can understand what you are saying. Maybe this will be the thing that turns it around?

As for the luggage - lovely! I especially like the first pattern. And the luggage for you DD is so sweet. Where are they from?

Lx

Thanks for the hugs!

I'm partial to the first pattern too! DD's luggage is from Pottery Barn Kids. She likes to put on the backpack and pull the suitcase around the house saying, "Wet's go to Nisney Woold"! (that's "Let's go to Disney World" for those of you without little ones!)

I think I've narrowed it down to the first pattered luggage, now I can't decide if I want the upright suitcase

or the large duffle

They both have about the same amount of cubic inches.
I have a large duffle that I have been using for the past 10 years or so and I do like that you can shove a ton of stuff in there, but do I want to change it up and get an upright? Help!

Hey! I'm so sorry about your BIL. Hopefully he will be ok and this will be his wake up call. Ya'll are all in my prayers.

About the luggage, I'm so glad you picked the polka dot pattern!! That's the one I loved. If you've always loved the duffle you have then you might want to go with it. Although, I've always used the suitcase type and I love it. I can definitely fit a ton of stuff in it. I like that it is more stiff and structured compared to the duffle. Either one you choose will work great.

I love Emily's luggage. That is so cute! Tyson doesn't have luggage yet. I don't know if I'm going to wait one more year before I get him a full set. I will get him a small rolling one to bring his favorite toys and stuff for the car. Usually I can fit DH and my stuff in one large suitcase and then Tyson's in another large suitcase. Then I have a smaller suitcase for the other necessities like shampoo, curling irons, etc. But of course we drive so I jam pack the whole car full of stuff including a large pack of Dasani waters, diet coke, snacks, a big box of diapers, wipes, etc.

Tyson needs a nap. He is in a foul mood! Ughhhh!

Did you find the luggage on line by chance? My DD loves the polka dot pattern, too.

OMG I adore the luggage!! Where did you find it at? I really love that pattern Normally I would say get the upright...but since they make those duffel bags with wheels and handles now, I don't think it would matter. I am partial to uprights though.

Well thanks to reading a post you made I made my first ever trip online to Overstock.

I found the luggage at bagking.com I'm waiting for the rolling backpack to become available. It's one of JanSport's new patterns.

When I was in school, I worked for a staging company setting up apartment and new home models. We used overstock for tons of things from furniture to linens. You can't beat the shipping cost!

Sleepy, so very sleepy...Emily has been up since 5:20am I swear I can hear my bed calling my name....Wendy, Wendy, come sleep in me Wendy! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

 

[bertegirl]

We need to plan a meet when the May hours come out. There are a few of us going the same times with small children. My DD would love it! Hope you get some sleep. I am totally think nap today

My computer crashed last night. I had to load Windows again and lost everything. Fortunatly, I didn't have a ton of stuff saved on this computer, unfortunatly, I did lose my Disney planning spreadsheet. Then I remembered that I had emailed it to Mike so he had a copy, whew!

We are planning the Spirit of Aloha show so I bought this dress for Em:

It's sad to say, but I think I have Emily half packed and we still have over 3 months before our trip. I have a bad habit of buying her clothes, they're just soooo cute, I can't resist. I think I'm keeping babyGap in business during these difficult economic times!

That recently happened to my computer! It's very frustrating to have to start from scratch again.

Love the cute dress! It's hard to resist cute little girl clothes.

 

[BridetobeDisney]

I love the dress!!! OMG how cute. You know, I say that I don't want another child but then I see cute little girl dresses and outfits and it makes me want a little girl. LOL Knowing my luck, I'd have another boy. Though, I think it would be fun to have two boys. So much less drama then.

The suitcase is awesome. I'm thinking about getting a baggalini for the park. Do you have one? I'm wondering about if it's worth getting.

It is fun to shop for a little girl, too fun!! They have a lot of really cute boy clothes out there too! I definitly want another baby! One one hand, I'd like another girl just because I've already got furniture, clothes, ect., but it would be fun to have a little boy too! I have 7 nieces and only 1 nephew so our family could use some more boys!

The baggalini's are cute, but I don't carry a bag in the parks. We have a stroller organizer and I just keep everthing in there. It folds up with the stroller too, so it's super convenient. I only take the essentials to the park like a few diapers, pack of wipes, sunscreen & camera. I keep my drivers license and KTTW card in my pocket. That's just how I am though. I've never liked carrying a purse either. The only reason I carry one now is because I use it as a diaper bag.

Great report. We are arriving the day you leave-I bet our 2 year olds would have had fun meeting. We have some of the same ADRs planned. Am waiting for the hours. I love her luggage-very cute.

Hi! Welcome to my PTR!!!

 

[wlwilliams9]

I was checking out the different tours they have at WDW and came across this one:

Disney's Family Magic Tour

Disney's Family Magic Tour invites Guests to join their family and friends on a 2.5-hour guided interactive quest to save Magic Kingdom Theme Park from the dastardly plans of a Disney Villain.

Your tour guide needs your help—and your knowledge of Disney trivia—as your tour group searches high and low for clues in this adventure through Magic Kingdom Theme Park. Unlike most tours, your party will play an active role in the experience as you put on your detective hat, follow tricky clues, solve diabolical puzzles and engage in a lively scavenger hunt.
If you manage to foil the plans of the forces of mayhem and save Magic Kingdom Theme Park, you will be treated to a very special surprise.
Adults and children of all ages will enjoy Disney's Family Magic Tour. Be sure to bring your camera to capture some unique memories.

I can't wait until Emily is a little older and we can do this one!

I love the stroller organizer, but we are using our double stroller? Hmm! It doesn't have cup holders and I need to check to see if it has a basket under....The dress is super cute. I love shopping for my DD. I must say there are a lot more cute boy clothes now, too. I hate purses, too. I have a diaper bag we keep in the vehicle. I normally just take my wallet if I am alone. Well hopefully 2 weeks and we may get some May hours! We will see how many changes we make when the EMH come out.

For those of you who read my previous posts about my BIL, here is an update.

He did break 2 verts, one in his neck and one in his back. He also broke his foot in a couple of places, but doesn't require any surgery, which is amazing. He was able to sit up with the help of his bed today to eat. He'll be in the hospital for quite a while and it should take over a year to heal. They are not releasing him until he starts physical therapy and goes through detox. He has also started seeing an addiction specialist. All good news, so far. The bad news is he's in some serious trouble. He was high as a kite when the accident happened. Once he is discharged, he will be arrested and we'll have to wait and see. He was living with one of his drug friends so this weekend Mike and 2 of his BIL's went over and moved all of his stuff from there to my MIL's. I hate that my MIL has to take care of him, but it is what's best for him. I guess all we can do is wait and see if he'll finally turn his life around. Keep your fingers crossed!
