Trip Report!

We had so much fun at Disney and at the GG Christmas Party. Pics are uploading now - all 200 of them... so grab a cup of coffee! The time change really messed up monkey, he was up at 4-5 am each morning and asleep by 5-6 everynight! But he was a trooper, no naps for that kid! He loved getting all the characters autographs - coach made him a really cute autograph book before we went. He made up a song and sang it to Mickey - it was so cute. We didn't get it on video b/c we didn't know he was going to do it! It went something like "My name is ...., I am 4 yrs old and I have mickey ears" - priceless! He rode all the roller coasters in DL even Space Mountain. He says that was his favorite ride but when it was over, he said "I loved that but I never want to ride it again!!" We didn't get to ride the Dumbo ride or another one that you went into a whales mouth so we will save that for the next trip. The lines werent too bad at all so that was great! Sweet girl did great with my mom but I think she wiped my mom out!

The GG party was a blast yet again. Bounce house, pony rides, reptile show, strolling cowboy (the theme this year was a hoedown), scotch and cigar tasting, visit from santa and food food food! Monkey got roller skates, elbow and knee pads and we got a gift card to Bed Bath and Beyond. Fun fun fun!

Yahoo!!

It's almost time to go!! We are about half packed - this is a huge feat for me! Packing all of my pump stuff and schlepping it all over Disney is not going to be fun but I am not giving sweet girl formula at this point! We picked up my mom today and hopefully, she and sweet girl will have a nice 4 days together! Everyone is pumped up and ready to go! Weather looks great, monkey's eczema is clearning up and the pkg for him arrived at the hotel yesterday. I have been collecting him a bunch of Disney/Mickey things for him and arranged them all in a basket that will be sitting in our room when we arrive. There are t-shirts in it for him to wear every day also! Yesterday, we went to the 'piggy bank' aka 5/3 and changed in his 'monies' for dollars - he saved $60 in 2 months! He is pretty pumped to buy a Mickey hat! Can't wait to share all the pics

Saturday is the GG christmas party complete with pony rides, reptile show, petting zoo and visit from santa! This is what they are getting him as a present (we got to give ideas) - i think he will love them!
