Hello everyone,
FINALLY GOING BACK TO MY FAVORITE PLACE...WDW!
. Anyway let me introduce the family.
Me, well I just turned 40 this year but most people dont believe me. Im a lover of all things disney.
To my suprise I found out I was pregnant which is the reason for not going to WDW last summer.
So instead of leaving for WDW the 1st week of August as usual I brought into the world an brand new disney fan. His name is Kashmir.
Kashmir joins his big sister Shay 19yrs old. Just loves WDW, no real favorite character.
(He's older here)
His big brother Keyvis 16 yrs old. Also loves WDW and he loves the new "Small Potatoes" song.
(They love him when he's sleep
)
And his big Sister Diamin 9 yrs old. Loves everything Disney but loves the new Doc McStuffins Show.
So here is the crew Christmas morning
This has been a rough year for us. The baby was hospitalized 3 times so far and he just turned 8 months. I was delayed going back to work because he had to be 8weeks to start in this childcare center that was so highly spoken of just to find out it wasnt so great. He caught RSV and was hospitalized for over a week. That was the 5th virus in the 4 weeks he had been there. Since that was a lung issue, everytime he caught a cold, he got bad which caused me to take many days off and 2 more weekly trips each to the hospital.
I am a preschool teacher and I love my job. Taking days and weeks off surely does confuse my "work" kids
but I explain that the baby got sick again. It worked in my favor because I can hear the kids telling one another "Cover your mouth, Ms.Linda doesnt want to take your germs home and make her baby sick",LOL. My kids have stepped up and helped out by helping each other. They wash their hands often, keep up with the dusting and vacuuming and most of all spraying their perfume and cologne on OUTSIDE so it doesnt trigger an asthma attack for Kash. My daughter got a job so she can relieve my pocket financially a little and my son asks for the bare minimal so that we can get to WDW this year. Well enough about my clan. Here is Kashmir now and these pictures describe him to a T. Kashmir like Cars, Mickey Mouse clubhouse, Little Einsteins, Octonauts, Chuggington, Gaspard and Lisa...well Disney Junior to sum that up.
Next up TRIP PLANS!!!!!! Hope you join me in my travels in preparing.

. Usually it starts early or mid-April but this year they started late march.
With that happening, I didnt get the best price that I was trying for but I still did ok. For all 5 of us and an SUV it was $830 R/T. I was so glad when I paid for that because it made it feel like my trip is in reach. I wasn't quite sure where to stay since our trip is 15 nights and I didn't want to bounce around alot with the baby. I was looking forward to staying offsite for the extra room but I love the POP so at the very least I was going to do a week at the POP and the remaining nights at Celebration Suites. Ran it pass the big kids and they love CBR which we stayed at our last trip and wanted to go back there. I looked up the prices and CBR was $165 weekdays and $180 on the weekends. That was steep when my favorite hotel was $92 weekdays and $107 on the weekends and Celebration Suites was $65 a night.
.
So I booked that for 3 nights and POP for 3 nights. So it went from $165 and $180 per night to $123 and $134.25 per nights for CBR. POP went from $92 and $107per night to $87.40 and $101.65 per nights
, Savings of $144.30!
. My kids are fans of both so we will see how this goes.
.
Right now we just plan on paying off the big items, like hotel and tickets. We also focus on getting the kids excited and prepared for the trip as I have a nephew with ADHD and fear issues, so we have Disney movie nights every weekend. Sounds like you have everything planned and under control and your trip is coming along nicely. Thanks for the kind words and the 
) I also want to pick up my train tickets but once I do its hard to change w/o penalties so I'm waiting on their money to add to the reservation. Just craziness.
