First trip to Disney!!


We took another trip to Florida and this time hit Disney World for a day. We had SO much fun!! It really is a magical place although I don't know how people go for more than 1 day at a time. Before we got there we saw Grandma for a few days and cleaned out more of her house. He is a lucky boy. I never saw my Grandmother that much. He has seen his Great-Grandmother 3 times in the past 6 months!
It was nice to be in the sun again even if only for a little while. We took lots more pics which I will send through Snapfish later. Here are just a few so you get the idea of what a memorable trip we had.


We stayed at the Buena Vista Palace and Spa which turned out to be a resort (not just a hotel) right across the street from Downtown Disney. So we got to swim and play basketball and see Mickey before we made it to the Magic Kingdom. And yes, check out that belly of mine. It is getting big.

Pooh turned out to be the hit character of the day. Rich had money from Grandma to buy something that he wanted and he picked a stuffed Pooh. He carried it everywhere he went around the park and on every ride.



We went on all of the classic Magic Kingdom rides. The Tea Cups, Its a Small World, etc. The rides were his favorite part.

We were having so much fun we decided to have nap time at the park so we didn't have to leave. And as you can see Rich was so tired, it worked!!

The only characters we went to see were Mickey and Minnie Mouse. And this was because I made him. He went on a roller coaster (yes a roller coaster so big I wasn't allowed on being pregnant), but was afraid to meet Mickey. Well of course I made him and he cried. But before we left he gave Mickey a high five and we got a pretty good picture. He was very proud of himself in the end.

A very happy boy after a long day of fun. His Mickey ears, Mickey PJs and of course Pooh. He was up at 2:00 am that night. I think he was still so wound up and couldn't get the day out of his head.

All in all it was a great first trip to Disney. It may be a while before we are back, but we have great memories that we keep talking about for now. Chris had to stay in Florida for work and we came home to 8 inches of snow. Isn't it March??? But we got upgraded to first class on the way home and are enjoying a snow day in our jammies so it could be worse. You should have seen peoples faces when they realized this little 2 year old had the BIG first class seat all to himself. Needless to say he was comfy so he slept the whole flight.
Bye Mickey, we miss you already!

Singing the ABC's

So I finally got it on camera although it isn't his best effort. For those of you who have been around us recently, you know how Rich sings the ABC song ALL DAY LONG. It is obviously his favorite song and he is really good at it! In this video he misses a lot of the letters because he does not want to be taped. But he literally knows all the letters and the ending. I guess he was developing his verbal skills when he was sitting on his bottom for all those months NOT crawling. This was taken this morning and I had to bribe his with a cookie. It was only 9 am, but it was the only way I could get him to do it for the camera.

Celtics courtside!!

Image
At 5:00 Chris got a call from a customer (who happens to live across the street), asking if we wanted his seats for the pre-season Celtics game tonight.  Of course we do!  Yes, it was the first game of the World Series and the Red Sox were playing, but you still can't beat going to a game. Chris had a feeling this guy had good seats, but when we arrived at Row A the kids were ecstatic.  Courtside, directly behind the players seats!  It was so awesome!   They were just feet from us and they were huge.  We could hear the plays they were going to run and then watched them run them.  Angela didn't love the seats because we were almost too close and she had trouble seeing over the 6'7" players!  The game was on ESPN and we were so close to the court that we were also on TV a lot.  My Mom was able to tell me what we were wearing because she watched it.  I found a quick link below.  You can see how close we were. ...
