another successful day at Disney but HOT

OMG it is so HOT here. So much for planning a fall trip in hopes for cool weather. Doesn’t stop the girls from having a blast. They got to meet the Fairies today, and the princesses for the 2nd time. And we finally was able to catch the fireworks this evening. Check out the new photos I uploaded into the gallery.

having a magical time

I uploaded a few more photos, check out the Disney photo album in the gallery. We went to the studios today and met buzz & woody again. Off to epcot for dinner and fireworks.

Disney

We’re in Disney and having a blast. It is HOT but I’m sure nothing like the summer. We did magic kingdom and some shopping so far. The highlight so far definitely was meeting Ariel and the Princesses. I think we’re gonna have to do a repeat before we go. Tomorrow we’re going to Hollywood Studios. To see photos from our trip so far click on GALLERY above this post and click on the Disney 2009 album. Night all. Miss you Daddy! xo

Get Well Gaby

Well, Gaby had an accident in the bathtub on Saturday evening and was rushed to Children’s hospital where she went in to surgery to repair a tear/stitches. We were VERY lucky and VERY blessed that nothing was internally was damaged and she had a team of great surgeons who were awesome. She had us all quite worried but she was such a trooper. We came home Sunday evening and she is getting better and better every day. This photo was taken yesterday, Riley has missed her and wants her to get up and play really bad. She climbed up in the chair and watched cartoons with her for a while. We are getting her off the pain medication and she goes back to the surgeon for a follow up on Thursday. The stitches will dissolve in about a week, till then no baths (which she doesn’t want anyways), but trying to keep her calm and from running and jumping is nearly impossible now that she is feeling better. but that is a great sign, we are just holding our breathe that she doesn’t pop her stitches. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers that her recovery continues and that she isn’t as traumatized by this as I am.

Stick a fork in it… Kitchen is done!

well, kitchen and living room. Lots of work but we LOVE it. We did everything ourselves except the countertops. My favorite things are the backsplash and new bench seat table area.

Kitchen is almost done…

key word “almost” which it has been almost done for about 2 months now. We have to kick it in gear and get it done. I get my missing piece of countertop backsplash Tuesday then I can finally grout my glass tile backsplash (which looks awesome by the way). Can’t wait to get my house back in order. Next… new laminate flooring in the kids’ playroom/my office.

4th of July

Hope everyone had a great 4th. We went down to Biloxi Beach and the kids had a blast.

Riley’s Birthday Party

It was long put off (due to our kitchen mess) and it was a long day. But Riley was a trooper, you can see how tired she is in her photo by her cake but she refused to stop partying. She skipped her nap, which you can tell by the last 2 photos, but had a great time.
