Day 4 (The Last Full Day- At Sea!)

Every day was jam packed with fun and activities. On the final day we woke up and hurried and got dressed because it was time to meet all of the princesses (with no wait using our tickets) and the Disney Jr. characters. We were almost late because Gabby slept so late! It was magical and the highlight of our day for sure! Every princess took their time making Gabby feel like a princess her self, I think she really believed that they were THE princesses we've read about and watched in movies.

After meeting the Disney Jr. characters we had lunch with Grandma and Grandpa and we all talked about all of the fun of seeing the princess and Doc McStuffins!

We then enjoyed the pool and hot tub with lots of swimming. Then Gabby had some special time with Grandma and Grandpa while Mommy and Daddy went on a date. Our service at Palo was great and it was nice to have a little time with just the two of us. After dinner we bumped into Gabby and Grandma leaving the theater. We happened upon lines that you could wait in to say goodbye to all of the Disney characters. We lucked out and were able to help Gabby have a dance party with Minnie, Chip and Dale, and Goofy and to give all of the princesses hugs farewell. It was a fun way to end our vacation, but bittersweet because it was official that we were going to wake up and head off of the boat and back to the reality of phones and responsibilities.

Thanksgiving 2013

Thanksgiving Day we all with to Grandma and Papa’s house to enjoy a traditional Cajun dinner and it was delicious. Gigi, Blakeleigh, Brandy, Nanny, Uncle Patrick, Grandma, Papa, Aunt Lisa, Aunt Christine, and Keith were all there to celebrate with us. Gabby enjoyed the day immensely playing with Blakeleigh the entire day and even trying to snuggle with her during her nap time. Gabby made everyone sing "Happy Birthday" to Mommy and she blew out the candles Then Brandy and Blakeleigh spent two nights with us. We had lots of fun going to Mud Pie to make handprint Christmas cookie plates and hanging out at Grandma’s house. Gabby enjoyed very much singing Happy Birthday to Mommy with the family and blowing out my candle. The night of my birthday Gabby spend the night with Grandma and Papa and Nanny, Uncle Patrick, Mommy and Daddy went to the movies together for the first time ever. It was a very fun weekend. T...

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.

It All Started with a Little Skittle...
