More Disney World Pictures

Here is the whole gang on day 1. Notice that we are all smiling, that wasn't the case by day 5!

The kids and I at Epcot. If you know me, you know what I think of Epcot...

Here it is...not my proudest moment, but this is exactly what I think of Epcot. I really am asleep here. I swear this ride was 30min of pure boredom, I don't remember which ride this was but I can tell that it wasn't good.
Beautiful Boy #2 and me in "Mexico" in Epcot.
Beautiful boy #1, Mickey, Minne and me.
The water fountain. I don't think I have ever seen Jackson so happy.
Lauren and I doing another plank for the World Plank website. (I LOVE that girl!!!)

McDonalds

I am not proud of it, but like most kids, Jackson loves McDonalds. Now that they are advertising for the new Shrek movie it has gotten even worse. Every time we drive by a McDonalds Jackson says, "Mom can we go to Ronald McDonald's house." I always answer with the mom classic, "Maybe". (Which always really means no.) The other day I got so frustrated with him constantly asking I finally said, "No we can not go to Ronald McDonald's house. If you eat there all the time you get chubby. Do you want to get chubby?" (Not my proudest mom moment, but it happened.) Oh, I must also tell you that Jackson likes metaphors. When ever he needs to understand something we will use a metaphor and then he gets it. Example: "When you hit your brother like that you are being mean like Chick Hicks." or "That is red like Elmo." So today he made a little metaphor of his own...

Jackson: "Mommy can we go to Ronald McDonald's house?"

Me: "No not today."

Jackson: "Because I will get chubby?"

Me: "Yeap."

Jackson: "Because I will get chubby like daddy?"

Me: Laughter...non stop laughter

Hair Today...Gone Tomorrow

Here it is...I chopped it all off! When I walked in Josh said, "Aaaaa do you like it?" I think that shows what he thinks about it!

Disney World

Last week I took the kids to Disney World. We had fun even though it was the most stressful vacation of my life. My sister Alexis put together a whole plan for each park. It worked great we were able to see everything that we wanted to see and we never had to wait longer than 30 min in any line! Thank you Alexis!!! Here are some pictures from the trip. I will be posting more later because most pictures were taken with other peoples cameras because I had to wrangle my kids.




Here we are meeting Handy Manny. Jackson is just like his daddy, he doesn't like to meet new people. Even though he likes Manny when it comes to meeting him...Jackson will not go near him without Mommy.

Here is my strong boy trying to pull the sword out of the stone. Maybe when he is big and strong like his daddy.

Here the boys are meeting another Disney character. (I have no idea who this is...)

This is Jackson watching the fireworks. As you can tell he LOVED them. He yelled the entire time. He thought it was so cool.

Here I am doing my plank for the World Plank website.

Duke and Katie Bell after a long day of fun.

Jackson on my new favorite ride at Disney World, the Toy Story ride. It was awesome! We rode it 3 times!
Duke laughing...he is so cute.

More pictures to come...

Duke Crawling

It is so exciting to watch Duke crawl! Jackson never crawled, he went straight to walking. It is like a whole new world has opened up to him. He looks so happy moving around the house and exploring. Here is a little video of Duke crawling. Just so you know he actually learned to crawl the other day but every time we turned on the camera he would stop crawling. Finally we got him on camera. Enjoy!
