Make sure to use Fast Passes as well, they are wonderful for getting on the rides that end up with huge lines, since you don't have to wait in a huge line with them you get to go in the express lane. Make sure to bring a lot of water, it is hot. The Baby Changing stations at each park are nice (well don't know about MGM (or Disney Studios whatever they are calling it now) since we didn't visit them last September, but the other three are nice). They even have a nursing room in each Baby Care Center which is really nice to give the little ones some quiet downtime (only nurslings and parents are allowed in, and it is dark and quiet).
We are actually debating the Autotrain next time we go down, we'll have to see, we normally drive, but it is a long drive. Desmond likes to pinch and pull when he nurses too, I don't allow him to play with the other nipple, it just was not something I was willing to do, so I stopped him immediately from that in the beginning. He will pinch and play with the breast he is nursing on, push his finger into my belly button, and play with my belly fat (thanks child, like I didn't know I needed to lose weight) while nursing though. Desmond is sleeping alone from about 9pm till midnight now, I am so happy. He does wake when we come to bed around midnight so I do feed him then, I figure it is a fair trade for him sleeping alone for 3 hours! It is so nice to have 2 to 3 hours with just me and DH. I am really pleased with this change, we'll see how it goes when we introduce him to his new room and bed in a few weeks, hopefully the sleeping alone for at least a little while keeps up. |

Mamaaaaaaaaaaan!!!!"Funny about kid languages, romi says hi all the time, but we don't say hi in french. It's obviously one of those sounds kids learn to say, but she says it at appropriate times, like when she's playing with the phone Haha, romi did that to me too! he is so CUTE!!! He reminds me so much of liam when he was young... It freaks me out! |
He yells it out the window at people on the sidewalk. His favourite word these days is "no".

kaylo used to hold my hair everytime he nursed...he wouldn't even nurse unless he had it (it was so long then!). even after i weaned him, he had to hold it to fall asleep. when i had zenon, i always put my hair over my shoulder for him for about the first three months of his life...just out of habit! |

Speaking of words, I can hear Eva yelling 'mama!mamama!' from outside. haha. So here's the big news guys. I can tell you all, my virtual friends. So, I'm 14 days dpo. Normally I'm 8-9 days. For months, and my temp has always dipped the day of. 14 days! No period! I've only had light cramps, none of the usual, although it's decreased since using my diva. ???? |

Chloe really needs a trim, too, but I don't think there's anything I could do to keep her in one place long enough to get it done. How did you get him to sit still? |
) Micah LOVES having his hair combed/brushed! He has since we started around 6 or 7 months....so I think it was a combination between that, mommy in his face with a camera, papa in his face with a camcorder, and all of the new people! My dad's brother's ex-wife (who is a hair stylist) and her "new" husband were there camping in addition to about 4 or 5 people they knew that were hanging out. He had plenty to focus on...He did start getting antsy at the end, but did VERY well.|

Since the stylist was a relative and it was free, I didn't speak up, although I should have....I just hope when it grows out there are curls!|

So I took another this morning, and sure enough- positive! So guess what? I can't really believe it- it's just the worst timing for me- I had HIGH hopes for spring/summer/early fall! Anyway- I want to keep it to myself for a bit, I like having a secret. I need to get used to it too. It's funny- of course I want to be pregnant and I want this baby, but it's a bit of a surprise. So I feel totally different than with Axel or Eva. Anyway. I guess I'm about 5-6 weeks. |
: We'll get you excited!! But , it may be early spring--right?? Maybe there'll be a reason you don't know yet for it happening when it does. (and you can't leave us for another ddc! )
