Back from Disney...

We are back! We had such a good time! Seeing Aislynn be SOOOOO excited over everything was such a special feeling. She was really good too, we only had one potty accident and she was well-behaved even when she was so exhausted. It was tiring being at the parks all day and standing, but we still had so much fun. We hope we can go back in Feb. maybe when it is not so busy! Anyways, here are the pictures....and blogger is not being my friend today, so they are out of order.

This was at Hollywood Studios-Aislynn was not a fan of Buzz and Woody, they were a lot bigger than she thought they were going to be! She wouldn't even give them high fives, and she was sad that Jessie (from Toy Story 2) wasn't there.

Aunt Ashley and Aislynn...I tried so hard to get Aislynn to want mouse ears, but she settled for these sunglasses instead.The whole group at Hollywood Studios.We went on the back lot tour at Hollywood Studios and at the end they had this display of famous movie villains. Aislynn liked Darth Vader, but she was looking at Darth Maul...not a fan of him. She saw the alien from Alien and said, "Let's get out of here." In front of the Great Movie Ride at Hollywood Studios...This was BY FAR, my favorite part of the trip...meeting the characters, especially the princesses. Aislynn LOVED meeting them and we had been waiting in line for a long time to meet only Cinderella, we thought. We were so surprised and Aislynn was so happy when we saw we got to meet Belle and Princess Aurora (Aislynn's fave!).

The castle all lit up at night...every time Aislynn could see the castle, she would point it out in an excited voice:)
This was Aislynn's treat after going on Snow White's Scary Adventure at Magic Kingdom. She saw the witch and had her eyes closed the whole time, I felt so bad, so I gave her this giant lollipop to hopefully erase any scary thoughts. It must have worked because she didn't say anything about it!
Aislynn loved meeting Ariel too! She kept saying "Ariel was so pretty and nice." She did wonder where Prince Eric was and all the water, lol.
Aislynn wasn't the biggest fan of the Fairy Godmother, but she was who told us where Cinderella was.
When we first got to Magic Kingdom, there was a show going on at Cinderella's castle and we watched it. A got to see all of her favorites!
She was sooooo excited she got to see Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty. She wanted too, but we weren't sure if she would see her or not. When A saw her she said "Dad, there's Maleficent-she's mean!"
She was excited about Captain Hook and Peter Pan too!
This is her watching the show:
Prince Phillip and Princess Aurora are her favorites, so we got to see them right off the bat and that was cool.
Prince Charming and Cinderella...
The castle in the day:
Pinocchio...he looked creepy to me, but A wasn't scared of him.
This was at Epcot at the Character Spot, we were worried she would be scared to meet them b/c they don't look like people. She was giving them hugs, high fives, and kisses, it was soooo cute. The line was really long, but it was so worth it to see that smile on her face!!!!!
She wondered where the "she duck" was:)
She kept calling Minnie "the heart". We were thinking b/c of her ears?
The Genie from Aladdin was the first character we met, and A was not impressed. She wouldn't talk to him or even look at him, lol.
This was in Italy in the World Showcase at Epcot.
Aunt Ashley and Shaun and Aislynn
A loved seeing all of the friends from Nemo!
This was the first ride we went on and she loved it! She loved seeing all of the things/characters she recognized from Finding Nemo.
I took this sometime at Epcot, it's just a cute picture:)
This was when we first got to Epcot:
Here is the big ball at Epcot (or "ebcot" as A says), when we were on the bus and she saw it, she said "That is a really big, heavy ball!" That's all for now! Now going to start getting ready for Christmas. Aislynn wanted to decorate the tree last night when we got home:)
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!!!

Pictures and scrappy stuff...

First, I have to share this picture...Grandpa, Aunt Brynne, and Sean came over for dinner last night and she had us all (I was too, but I had to take the picture) coloring. She gave everyone a book and really just jabbered on while we all colored, but it was pretty cute:)
Today Aislynn and I went to go see my Dad's cool camper (which she just kept telling Shaun how cool it was when we got home!), and we walked on the beach.It was SO cold! I am ready for cold weather, but this might be too cold for me!! Sometime after the sun had set and we were on our way to dinner, it said it was 46 degrees! That is COLD to me, lol!!! This girl could stay at the beach FOREVER if we would let her.
Finally I have some scrappy stuff to share. All this was made with the November Kraft Girl Kit.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

11 Weeks

Today I am 11 weeks. I am thinking I am over the morning sickness. As long as I eat little snacks and don't get too hungry, I am okay. YAY! Another thing that has started (which I don't remember it happening this early with Aislynn), is that I have to pee all the time now...or at least have the feeling like I have to.So does it look bigger than last week?
Look at this silly girl:) Love this one!
Here is our 10 week 5 day ultrasound:
I had an ultrasound at 6 weeks, but they couldn't hear the heartbeat on the Doppler thing yet, so they did another one. Everything looks good-it's amazing how much more baby-like the baby looks than the last ultrasound. I haven't gained any weight yet, but now that I am feeling better, I'm sure that won't be a problem:)

Cute girls...

Yesterday was our friend Megan's birthdday, so we watched Lillian for her, which of course Aislynn just loved:) They are so cute together:) We made cookies and that was fun. They set up stools in front of the oven and literally watched the cookies bake. We have a busy weekend, family in town on Shaun's side and my side, and a doctor's appointment Monday, so I will post an update after that! Have a great weekend!

10 Weeks...

We have been having GORGEOUS weather this week, so yesterday, Aislynn and I met up with our friends Lillian and Megan and hit the beach. There was pretty much no one else on the beach and I love when the water is this color:) These girls were so content to just dig in the sand:)I am 10 weeks today and the belly is starting...earlier than it did with Aislynn. I think the first belly picture I have with Aislynn is at 12 weeks and I was not this big yet. Still in regular pants, but having to unbutton them:)
I am still feeling yucky some days, but hopefully that will be over soon! Keeping my fingers crossed! Here is another layout I did recently using the Kraft Girl Kits November kit. In 2 weeks we are leaving for Disney World-YAY!!!!

Long time....no post....

It has been awhile. Sorry, haven't been feeling the best this week and Monday and Tuesday were devoted to watching all the election stuff. My Mom and James came into town yesterday and left just a little bit ago. I cannot believe these are the first pictures we have taken in November. I have to get better about that!!!!
We took a walk on the beach tonight, and you can see it was getting dark, so the pictures did not come out all that great, but you can see how beautiful the sunset was!!!This picture was taken with the flash and is kinda blurry, but I like it:) This was with the flash too, but still is a good picture of the 3 of them! The people who are fishing were actually catching some pretty good sized Pompano.
I managed to get a little scrapping in one night, this is from the Kraft Girl Kits November Kit.
The pictures are kinda off, but I have been too lazy obviously to take new ones:)
Just a little baby card...
We have got about 17 days left until we leave for Disney World!!!! We are so looking forward to it, and after a trip to Target, Aislynn is already wanting to set up for Christmas. I told her after we get back from Disney World:) Hope everyone is doing well, and I seriously will *try* to be better about blogging AND taking pictures this week:)

Happy November!

I can't believe it is November already! Whoa! We had so much fun last night! All day Aislynn kept asking me "Is it time to trick or treat?" "Are we going to Lillian's house now?" Here are a few shots of her in her Halloween shirt... Her funniest face ever:)Here are Lillian and Aislynn, they are SO cute together:) Lillian is about 5 months older than Aislynn. When they went trick-or-treating-Aislynn was SOOOOOO scared of the people dressed up. The princesses, pirates, butterflies, and such didn't bother her, but all the creepy scary kids did. She even told one guy to get away from her and then she said she wanted to go home:( She made someone hold her the whole time. After that we went back to Lillian's house to play and de-traumatize Aislynn:) She hasn't said anything about the scaries, so maybe all the jumping on the bed and dancing worked?
