Winkler's 2010- The fun, the exhaustion, and the painful!

[Tnkrbelle565]

Hi Kristine!!!

Hi Alicia!


Ok those pics of Matt with the bag and sleeping the with kids are priceless!

Sorry that you were in a little "mommy pain". You are a trooper doing WDW nursing. We waited til Aisling was done with all that

You know I love that shirt the Princess wore to O'Hana!

Oooh sorry that the Fisherman Stew wasn't good. Mine was loaded with seafood. Guess when they are cooking for masses, it's luck of the draw.

We walked around WS, sampling yummies and trying to hide from the HOT and RIGHT sun. Matt's feet were really hurting him. We finally made it to Der Teddy Bear. Isabele loves that place. She got a pretty horse with a fairy. We also sampled a couple of pieces of caramel. We stopped halfway through to rest in the AC and feed Gabriel.

We took a respite at the F&W station "Belgium". Isabelle tried to catch more lizards.

Then headed on! Isabelle is polishing of my creme brulee...

We continued on around. I had eaten LOTS of F&W goodies, but Matt not so much. He wanted beer from UK and fish and chips. So we stopped for bit in UK and the shoes were removed! LOL! He pretty much walked around in his socks the rest of the day. And Isabelle caught that lizard! And, yes she held a fry and lizard in the same hand, but she was feeding the ducks the fry!

*I have a great video from here I will work on uploading*

Onward to see a purple dragon!! The reason I love Journey with Figment so much is b/c it was Levi's first ride. Isabelle complains everytime. The skunk smell get her....but I love it!!! After is always fun!

"With just a spark of inspiration/ I've made my house an innovation/ Imagination really clowns around/Mix downside up, and upside down."

When we finally go out of the Imagination Pav. Gabriel needed a change and I ran out of wipes!

So I let Matt take Isabelle for a ride on Soarin and I headed for the baby center. I took this on the way.

Matt and Isabelle metmeat the center where I was feeding Gabriel. And soon we headed to Pop.

I just love this picture.

I can't believe you were able to keep BF with all that pain.

Loving the pics!! I am kind of freaking out about my trip so I thought I would come on over here for some reassurance. Kind of anxious about BFing and staying in one room without waking Aiden, and what to wear (to be able to BF and because I still have loads of baby weight). But seeing your smiling kids reminds me that no matter what we do or how many rides we hit, it will all be worth it to see my boys happy

Thanks Kristine. It was gross.

Hi Michelle. Thanks!! Well he had never been on formula, so I didn't know what else to do. When I could, I pumped, b/c it didn't hurt as bad. It really was rough. The heat wasn't helping.

Hi Lori. I feel for you sweetie. I had some aprehension, too. First of all, do you own any nursing tops? I wore crossover nurning tanks, and the ones from target a lot! and I took my nursing cover. Do you have one, if not, use your sling. Practice BFing in it, too. It will help a lot. As far as your room, Aiden probably needs to learn to sleep through some noise, it will make it easier on you. As far as your wait, watch FB for some help there! I will send some your way!!! You are going to have a GREAT trip, Sweetie!! BTW, what DVC are you staying at, so I can be totally jealous?

Morning!!!

I did buy some nursing tops and some cross over tanks so I guess I should be ok! And yep, I have a nursing cover. I want to try nursing in the sling, get some practice. Colin is just kind of an active nurser, if there is any stimulation he pops off and on, so hopefully the cover will help. If I need to go to thr baby center for quiet, I will, that's why we have cell phones right? I can meet up with everyone else later!

As for my weight, yeah, it is what it is right now, no point putting off my life till I am thin right?!

We are staying at Boardwalk. I can't wait!!! I absolutely love it there. But I meesed up with out flight and needed to book us into a hotel for a night so our last night we will be staying at Caribbean beach!!!

 

[aksunshine]

JEALOUS!!! You are going to have an AWESOME time!!

BlessedMom- 1) a pillowcase dress is super easy to make and 2) try Starring Rolls at DHS. It's a good alternative to Pizza Planet.

I am going to ATTEMPT this pillowcase dress...as soon as I can buy a pillowcase I like! Thanks for the encouragement! I will have to check out Starring Rolls! Thank you!

Starring Rolls is pretty good, if we don't just go to Pizza Planet! We tend to head over to Boardwalk and have lunch at the Bakery (love the dessert options!) or we go to Beaches and Cream at Beach Club.
