Whadda Great Sunday

[Pat_Elliott]

A long overdue "Hi" to everyone. DW and I are sitting in our office on an early Sunday evening letting the wee one sleep (thank heavens). We pulled out our "Disney Box" to celebrate 26 days until our next trip and found all the cards and letters Amy received last summer. Holy smokes, I'd forgotten what an incredible bunch most of you are. Just wanted to say we haven't forgotten, and when she's old enough, Kimberly will come to know many of you through these kind correspondence. Some 11 months after the stuff hit the fan, Kimberly's a healthy, happy little tyke and our only worry is whether or not she'll scream bloody murder when she reaches the UK pavilion and sees a 7 foot tall Pooh stomping towards her. Ain't life grand?

Anyway, we just wanted to scream how fine we feel today. Hope everyone (in the NE anyway) is enjoying this incredible weather. I'm including a picture from Easter Sunday. OKW, here we come.

Pat, Amy, and Kimberly!

Kimberly Jane, Easter Sunday

Pat, that is one beautiful baby you have there. She looks happy and healthy. Have a great trip meeting Cinderella, you deserve it after the year you've had.

Glad to see that you're enjoying your little 'light' at the end of a difficult tunnel. All the best to you and that beautiful baby.

So glad to hear that things are going well. Have a great time at WDW with that precious baby of yours.

As far as the title to this thread, I have to agree. Today has been the best Sunday so far this year. I have to sliding door to the deck open and I'm enjoying the breeze.

Awww, how sweet she is!
So glad that life is going so well for you guys. You deserve it. Enjoy Kimberlys first trip to WDW!!!!

 

[Tinkbell]

She is so pretty. I know you will have a great vacation.

What a joyful update, Pat, and nice to hear from you all. Sounds like things are going well. Continued good wishes for Amy and Kimberly, you also. Love the cute picture, neat hat. And less than a month to go till you guys see The Mouse. Enjoy.

Thanks TC, hope that wheel is mending. I'm actually wearing shorts and not regretting it, and I think I have a sunburn on my skull. May there be many more Sunday's like this before the heat and humidity both reach 100.

Pat, Kimberly is ADORABLE...and you're right, it's great to have those windows open after all the dreary weather.

I'll be at WDW the same time as you!

What an adorable picture. Isn't it amazing what happens over time. So happy that your trip is close at hand and she'll have her first visit to WDW!

I saw a thread by you Pat, & it got me to wondering how you all are. And you answered my question! Your little girl is darling - what a little miracle. And all that Amy went through! (well - and you too!) You are going to have sooo much fun in WDW! I hope you know that some of us expect trip reports!

 

[Tony-NJ]

nice to see you. Kimberly is so beautiful!

 

[Poohbear123]

With us. She is certainly beautiful, miracle babies usually are. Have a fantastic trip, and hope to meet you, Amy, and Kimberly at WDW one day!

Pat,

Just curious- how did Kimberly's trip to see go?

 

[Pat_Elliott]

Hi, and thanks so much for asking!

I'm in the middle of writing a trip report, but the overview: the weather was great, OKW was fantastic, Kimberly behaved like an absolute dream, and vacation went way too fast. On the bad side, Kim never got to meet Cinderella. On a good note, I don't think she could differentiate Cinderella from a moving bus. And we did get a pretty neat pic of her with Sleeping Beauty, who I kept calling Cinderella until she corrected me. I've included that photo below!

I won't call it our best trip ever. Some of those September "Adult Only" trips were mighty fine, and having a wee one with you certainly requires planning and attention. But all-in-all, I will call it one of the great ones! Trip report coming soon....

Pat

I'm glad you and the girls had a good trip. I'll keep an eye out for your trip report. Kimberly is adorable. As far as not meeting Cindy, a perfect reason for another trip to WDW.
