Day 3


Our third day of vacation was another fun filled day! We woke up with this beautiful view and by 9:30 we were on the beach (privately owned by Disney).

We bought Gabby some sand toys and alternated building sandcastles, making Gabby into a "wormmaid" and swimming in the crystal clear water. Gabby managed to also have a dance party with Minnie Mouse and Goofy and watch hermit crab races. 


The day was perfect! The sky's were blue and filled with fluffy white clouds and the water was the perfect to cool you off when you were too hot from playing in the sand. After we all had our full of the beach we went back to the ship to relax before our evening festivities were to begin!

Grandma and Grandpa filled us in in the happenings on the ship while the 3 of us were hanging out in paradise. They ride this really cool slide that goes over the ocean 3 times (we couldn't ride it because Gabby was a centimeter too small). They said it was super fun. 

It was Pirate Night so we all got dressed up in our pirate gear before heading to dinner. We met Pirate Minnie, watched a pirate performance and sat in the rain to watch the not so impressive firework display put on by Disney. By the time we pushed the stroller back to the room Gabby was passed out.



The hostess taking care of our room had a big surprise for us (besides the golden chocolate coins and pirate bandannas we had been given earlier in the day). Gabby had soft princess sheets on her bed. She was very excited when she woke up the next morning and discovered  she had slumbered with princesses. All of the small things add up to a magical experience. Everyone constantly called Gabby princess which made her grin from ear to ear. The world revolves around the kids during the cruise. All of the people who work on the ship are there to serve the children and ensure everyone has a magical experience, which I am happy to report we did!

Sacrafices for My Angel

Everyone knows that being a parent is full of sacrifices and some are more difficult than others. So far being a Mom I have "sacrificed" my skin thanks to stretch marks, my youthfulness, thanks to the worries that cause the new wrinkles I notice weekly, my pretty legs thanks to the varicose veins I received during pregnancy that never went away, the comfort of sitting thanks to the back pain I have had ever since pregnancy, a good night’s sleep, and the list goes on... However, none of these things truly feel like a sacrifice (although I do miss sleep and my non-damaged body) they are just part of being a mommy and I wouldn't trade parenthood for anything! Today, however, a very difficult sacrifice was made, although I know it was the only choice. Ranger, the dog Michael and I had for 7 ½ years, was given to a new home today. He bit Gabby on her head when she was about 9 months old and then about a week ago he nipped at her and unfortunately that was the last straw. M...

Pink or Blue Skittle

Okay so as requested by many, I am posting a picture of my belly. A few people told me that they needed to see my belly before guessing the sex of the baby. When Michael took this picture last night we were both convinced my belly grew from the time I woke up. Please comment whether you think it's a boy or a girl or email me and let me know what you think because I would love to make a little scrapbook page of who guessed what. We will let you know October 30th, whether or not you are correct.
