Just wanted to pop in and let you know we are having a MAGICAL time here! I wanted to post some pics, but I don't know Tanya's photobucket account password. She and Hannah are coming back from a special Mommy and Daughter experience. :)

Be warned... There will be a LOT of pics. We are well over 350+ so far and that is not counting the Photopass pics that Disney Cast Members take.

what a day yesterday lol. We were going non stop from about 8 am to after 11 pm haha including Hannah... without a nap. I didn't really plan it that way. I planned to have her home by 1 pm everyday to nap. yesterday that didn't happen... but I'm definitely not complaining. I can't believe she was go go go all that time and not one meltdown... not a single one.

Yesterday was her actual birthday (today is her party) and we went to epcot in the morning. first thing she did was go meet Daisy (she met her the day before too). we ended up meeting daisy THREE times yesterday lol. We've discovered Hannah is sexist lol she only likes the female characters. she had her princess lunch yesterday which was a huge hit. she was so excited (and that's also why Brian went back to the resort with his dad. it was girls time lol me, grammy and Hannah. Grammy split off after the lunch to hang with her daughters family since they didn't get there until noon)

so after lunch I thought hannah and I would go and do the few things we didn't get to do that morning that I wanted to do with her. we went to the japan pavillion and went to pick a pearl. You get to pick your oyster and they do a fun little ceremony while they open it and get your pearl. We did two... I wanted one pearl for her and one for me and then I am going to make them into necklaces. well guess what... we got a white pearl AND.... a silver blue pearl I will post pics once everything is uploaded.

then on our way out we saw... you guessed it... Daisy lol so we had to go see her... TWICE. there was almost no one in line so I figured why not Hannah LOOOOOOVES Daisy. I got some amazing photos and videos of the two of them together lol Daisy was amazing.

When we were heading home the monorail was out so Hannah and I had to go on a little adventure to get back lol.

when we got back we all went down to the pool for a swim. and then Brian and I went back to epcot for a couple hours while Grammy had some time with Hannah. got home and watched Hallo-wishes... the fireworks from Mickeys not so scary halloween party which we can see from our balcony.

the day still wasn't over... we all got our suits on and went back down to the pool again LOL.

Hannah didn't go to bed until after 11 pm haha thank goodness today is our off day.

she also got a special message on the phone from mickey and minnie wishing her a happy birthday

this trip has been amazing

I've never been to Disney in my life. I'm glad Hannah's enjoying it enough for the both of us!

I went to Disney World around my 4th birthday and I still remember it (it was actually a "you have a new brother so we're going to leave him with the grandparents and bring you to Disney world to remind you we love you" trip). I'm glad she's having fun and can't wait to see pictures, I've been thinking about you guys down there and hoping you're having a good time!

So am I :rofl1: :rofl1: :rofl1:

:lol-sign:


Some people would say we spoil Hannah. I say, "is it spoiling her if she is grateful for what we do?" Really.

We were walking around the Downtown Disney area yesterday. This place has, of course, the biggest Disney store on Earth. Once she picks the one thing she is allowed to get, she usually finds another thing she wants. How we handle that is, "ok, but if you get this, you have to put that back. Do you want this or that?" She picks the one she wants and put s the other one back.

Really. LOL (She picked a Minny and Mickey stuffy set. They are dressesd like a Bride and Groom.... Im sure she picked it because Minny looks like Hannah in her famous white dress. )


I think the key to it is we try to always discuss what we want to do with/for her before we do it. You know, have a basic plan and stick to it. Sure, wrenches get tossed in sometimes but we just roll with it. If things need to change, we talk about it, make a decision and do it.


----

But most of all.... I am just grateful beyond words to be able to do this for them. Sure, I love this magical place.... But not as much as them. LOL

Off for our last day of Disney magic, for now.


P.S. Wait till we share our dining experience last night. O....M....G....
