We had a great time at Disney World! The drive there was not so bad. We stopped in Pensacola, FL after about a 10 hour drive and slept at a hotel. We were up the next morning at 8am and drove into Orlando. We went swimming as soon as we got there. The hotel was awesome!!! It was a time share resort Marriott. There were 4 heated pools!!! The kids were as excited about swimming as they were about the Disney parks. On day 1, we hit Magic Kingdom and covered only about 1/3 of the park. On day 2 we went to Hollywood Studios in order to meet the Power Rangers. That park was more fun than we anticipated it to be. Everyone had a great time. We went back to Magic Kingdom on Wednesday to see more characters (princesses, Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto). Unfortunately, Regan was not doing good that day with her breathing, so we ended up leaving early. On Thursday morning, the boys went swimming while I took Regan to a CVS medical clinic. They gave her an antibiotic and recommended to continue breathing treatments. Later that day, we made our way back to Magic Kingdom for the night parade which was AWESOME!!! On Friday, we went to Animal Kingdom and did a safari....which was very cool! We left for Pensacola on Friday afternoon and arrived late that evening. We were up again by 8am for the long drive back to Houston. It seemed to take longer to get home than it did to get there...isn't that how it always is??? Overall, it was great!! The pictures are in random order, and this is only a few I pulled out. We took over 400 pictures and lots of video!! Enjoy!
Adam was not a fan of the characters. Maybe next year!

Getting Ready for Disney
We leave bright and early Saturday morning for Orlando!! I have new DS games, new movies, and new books, markers, crayons, coloring books, etc., all stashed away and ready to be pulled out at that first moment of boredom. The car seats have been washed, the car cleaned out, and most of the things that can be packed ahead of time is ready to go. Now the mental preparation begins :)
We started this week out on a rough note. Dylan had a croup attack on Friday night. We ALMOST went to the ER, but managed to control it from home this time with steroids and breathing treatments and a long night in a steamy bathroom. He has been fine ever since, other than his normal asthma cough every now and then. THEN, Adam had a croup attack on Sunday night. Again, we ALMOST went to the ER, and we probably should have. He was the worst I have ever seen him, but we did manage to control it from home. I think I have built too much confidence from all of Dylan's experiences to handle things on my own. Have I ever told you how much I hate going to the ER? Anyway, I did take him to the doc on Monday and she put him on an antibiotic and gave him 2 steroid shots. On Wednesday, he went downhill again, and back to the doc we went. Have I ever told you how much I hate going to the doctor's office? Now he is on Tamaflu. Nice. My hope is that he gets better before Saturday, and nobody else gets what he has!!! Can I be that lucky???
Regan has 2 loose teeth...she wanted me to add that in here. She wiggles them everyday. I guess I wouldn't go so far as to say they are "loose", but they do wiggle...a little. hee hee. She wants to lose a tooth so bad! I need to find some tooth fairy pillows soon.
I don't have any new pictures to post, but I know I will have TONS when we get back next weekend. I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentine's Day!!!
Love, Wendy
