Priceless

Mom took this of Lucy while she was sleeping after her long day in Disney World meeting the princesses. There's nothing more precious that sleeping children!

Disney - Part 3

Annabelle with Daddy (she adores her daddy! - I can get her to smile at me while I'm smiling - but she'll just look at Daddy across the table and just smile and smile!)

Our resort at night

Cinderella's castle at night

All in all - we had a great time. Not relaxing, but it was a good trip. I was so thankful that Mom was there with us - Lucy loves her and it was fun for her to spend time with Nanny in their own room. We'll definitely go back but not for a few years! Lucy really liked the parks, but she was more interested in fountains, meeting characters, and feeding the birds. After about an hour at the park she asked if "we could go back to the hotel to swim." Very thankful for a good trip - it certainly is a magical place.

Disney Part 2

Our lovely room attendant, Nilda, took great care of us and even left us some cute animals (pictured here with Miss Annie). Lucy stayed with Nanny and loved it - they were next door to us. They had some swan towels every day and she also left some towels in Mickey's shape on the beds.
Our second day in Magic Kingdom, Lucy had an appointment at the Bibbity Bobbity Boutique to get her hair, nails and makeup done for her birthday present. Here she is picking out her hair accessories with her Fairy Godmother-in-training.

Getting some finishing touches on her hair.

All is done! After this her Fairy Godmother-in-training put on a birthday sash and spun her around to look at herself in the big mirror. Her reaction?......she burst into tears and cried, "I don't like it!" Oh boy....I felt bad for her Fairy Godmother - but Lucy recovered - a photographer stopped her outside and took some shots of her next to Cinderella's fountain.

And what do you do when you get all princess-y? You meet Cinderella in her castle, of course, and have lunch with the princesses!

The castle was beautiful!

Lucy met all the princesses. Here she is with her favorite, Ariel.

Mommy and Daddy's favorite, Belle, came over and gave our Annabelle a kiss on the forehead.

Disney Part 1

Here are some starter pictures of our trip to Disney! We had a really good time - but truth be told - it was rough with a newborn! We planned this trip before Annabelle was born so it all looked "easy" then. But we were glad that we were able to take Lucy for her birthday and spend some good family time together. Our resort was amazing - we stayed at Port Orleans French Quarter. We we go again (in about 4 years!) I'd love to stay there again. The food court was ok - but the rooms, pool, and the resort grounds were just amazing. We had such a pretty view from our room (which we never got a picture of). The picture above is of Lucy in front of one of the Christmas trees in the resort lobby.
She was so excited to meet Daisey - and kept telling all the characters that "she missed them so much!"

Having a good day in Epcot - dressed as Snow White.

Stopping to pose with Nanny!

Annabelle rode around in style and this was the only way she would sleep. We couldn't get her to sleep in the carseat in the stroller. So I got to carry around 13 lbs. of baby for 6 whole days.

Our first day we ate at the Crystal Palace and met Pooh Bear and his friends. The food was so amazing with such a variety. Definitely worth it to eat there.
