We're Celebrating our Marriage with a trip to Disney World! Itinerary final touches

[smile4stamps]

Hey Andrea! Just wanted to let you know that it looks like the preorder price for the PhotoPass CD has not yet gone up so if you are thinking of getting it make sure you pre-order before your trip! Then if you don't get enough photos you can call and get a refund!

 

[DisneyStitch626]

Thanks Paula! I might just have to do that! It would save quite a bit of money.

Pulled out the suitcase last night!!!

Gonna start throwing stuff in there. Last week I bought some new shorts and a pair of capri's so I will wash those and throw them in, since I doubt we will be having the weather for it here by then.

Also bought some mini shampoos at Walmart the other day. Now I should make up an actual packing list so we don't forget anything.

I am starting to get a little bit of anxiety about leaving Seth. I know everything will be fine, but I always get these quick "what if" type thoughts. I am going to get my mom on Skype so we can arrange a couple of days where we can see him. She's done the msn video thing a couple times with him, and I know he recognizes me on there, so it will help ease our minds a lot if we can see him smile at us. I kinda wish he was coming with us.

Being away from Seth will be tough, but try to get into the mind set that he'll be fine & you deserve this break. Its ok for parents to take time off, so give yourself permission to take this trip & know that he'll be well taken care of. (trust me, my first trip away with the Divas last year was brutal.....but I finally had to tell myself I deserve this, its ok to leave the kids home, etc).....if you can get to that point prior to going.......you'll have an amazing time.

If no one's told you this.........You deserve this time off for your honeymoon!!!!

 

[DisneyStitch626]

You're right, the time off will be great. Won't have to worry about naps or feedings or diapers. We will have a good time. Just gotta get passed missing the smiles that are usually waiting for us when we wake up in the morning. It's only a week, we will be fine!

It will be okay.

Thanks Michele.

We are in the teens today!!!!! Getting so close!

I have an interview tomorrow for a furniture store. I have been looking at other places to work instead of going back to where I was before. They aren't giving me my old position as receptionist back and instead are putting me in the back room in receiving. I don't really want to do that kind of work, so now I am job hunting. If nothing turns out, I will go back until I find something better, but an interview is a good sign!

You're welcome.


Good luck tomorrow! I will keep you in my thoughts!

Just thought I'd post a photo I took of Seth with my phone while we were out for dinner the other night. It's one of my favourites of him.

On April 10th, I have booked a lady to take some photos of him. It's the same lady that took his newborn photos, and I am so excited about it. She is doing a fundraiser for the month of April where all the proceeds from her childrens photo shoots go to a schools lunch program that they normally can't afford. I am excited to participate in that, and also get some new photos of Seth from her, as I find her amazing. Here is a little girl that she photographed a couple weeks ago:

So amazing!

Andrea,

That picture of Seth is so cute. I look forward to seeing the pictures she takes of seth.

Thank you! I am a little nervous about it. I am betting that they are going to want me to start sooner than April 30th, but I am just not ready to give up my last few weeks with Seth. I don't even want to give up my time after April 30th. I so wish I could afford to be a stay at home mom. But I can as soon as our car payments are paid off. Which one of them is done near the end of the year, so I might be able to go part time. I am going to miss him so much!

Thanks for the compliments on the photo! He was a little messy and has some mashed potatoes on his face, but I couldn't resist anyways.

Moleskin for blisters, ponchos, rain jackets or umbrellas (It didn't rain on our April/May trip in 2009 but as soon as we left it down poured for 2 weeks so be prepared for any weather in Florida!), a few different types of shoes to alternate, medications including ibuprofen for all the soreness, deodorant , sunglasses, Mickey ears if you have them?

 

[DisneyStitch626]

Thanks! There were a few important things on there! Medication and deodorant being top contenders! Although I think I would have remember the deodorant as I was packing bathroom stuff.

Not sure what moleskin is, but I will bring up google in a minute here and figure that out. I think you or someone mentioned it before for helping with blisters, etc.
Edit: I just looked it up, and duh! I have seen that in the stores lots! Guess I just never looked at the name.

A poncho is definitely a good idea, never thought about that. Will have to check Walmart. No idea where else to look for those. I sure hope it doesn't rain too much though. So not a fan of rain. Don't mind a little, just don't want days and days of it like it did for our 2010 trip to DL.

For shoes I'll be wearing my runners on the plane, etc, and I am packing a pair of sandals I got before our last trip to DL that I actually found really comfortable to walk in.

 

[DisneyStitch626]

Also, we have mouse ears, but we will probably pick up some new ones to wear this trip. Might get the bride/groom ones but we will see. Dillon wants a tradition of getting a pair each every time we go on a Disney trip. I like that idea, but last trip I didn't see any I liked, so I didn't get any and picked some out for Seth instead. I've seen some new ones online though that I love.

I had never heard of moleskin before planning for Disney either. I actually didn't need it for our first WDW trip but I DID need it in DL! It was weird how I went 10 days at WDW without blisters but my first day at DL I had several! I even had the same type of shoes so it was confusing!

 

[DisneyStitch626]

Yeah the same shoes that gave me blisters last week while walking for 15 mins, are the same shoes I've worn to DL the last 2 trips, and they never gave me blisters before. I wore them to the gym a few times and they gave me blisters once then, but not the other times too. So weird!
