4/28/08

On Mondays mommy and I go to the breastfeeding luncheon at Celebration hospital. We like to go and visit with the other moms and babies. Each week I get weighed and this week I am 10lbs!

We also got my birth certificate and went to visit my school. I start on Monday 5/12 in the Cruisers class. http://ymcafamilycare.org/parents.html

4/24/08 - 4/27/08 Nana Visits

Nana arrived for her visit late on Thursday night. Mommy, daddy, and me picked her up from the airport.

On Friday, daddy went to work and Nana, mommy, and I met Aunt Sarah at Celebration Town Tavern for lunch. Nana fed me...


Aunt Sarah likes to hold me...

Then we all went for a walk around the lake. It was fun

Saturday Daddy was off from work and it was the NFL draft. I wore my Saints garb just for the occasion. Daddy and I matched! Nicky and Jay and his little girl Lily came over to watch the draft with daddy. Mommy, Nana, and I spent time in mommy's room talking with Jeannine and Wendy.


Sunday was the WDW Ticketing Family picnic at Fort Wilderness. We all went and ate yummy hamburgers and hotdogs. Nana fed me while mommy and daddy ate.

Then it was time to bring Nana back to the airport for her flight home. I was sad, but she will be back for memorial day weekend, so I will see her next month. It was a fun weekend.

4/11/08 - 4/14/08 Branigan's 2nd Visit

Aunt Sarah came to visit today. She is leaving Disney and moving back to Houston to take classes to become a Midwife. We are very sad :(

We took Brennan out on Fri night to Chilis to celebrate Sarah's Birthday (4/2) and Paige's MBA completion. Brennan was very good.

Maw Maw Debbie, Paw Paw Bob, Aunt BB, and Ben arrived late on Friday night.


On Saturday mommy was insistant to get out the house and visit Disney...My FIRST Disney trip! We had breakfast at Perkins and then back to the house for rest. We geared up to go to Epcot and got there around 6pm.


When we went into Epcot we all rode Spaceship Earth. I slept through the whole ride. Then we walked around. This is a pic of Team Hock in front of the Stitch topiary. The theme for the Flower and Garden Festival was Fun in the Sun.


We took this pic near the towers at World Showcase Lagoon. Aren't the bird toparies cool?
We ate at Mexico and then all rode the Mexican Boat Ride, again I slept through most of it. When we got off it was just in time for IllumiNations. I didn't even cry with the load fireworks.

On Sunday we staid at home and watched the Masters which will put anyone to sleep. Then in the evening we drove to Celebration and had dinner at Market Street and walked around a little. It was fun.

Dad had to work on Monday and the Branigan's were leaving for their flight around 5pm. We had lunch at Seito in Celebration and then went to Fantasia Gardens to play mini Golf. It was really hard...

Paw Paw Bob teeing off...

Ben won (but he plays real golf so he had an unfair advantage). Then BB and Paw Paw Bob. Mom came in last but it was still fun!

4/9/08 - out the house again

Me, Mommy and Daddy all went to mommy's doctor. i like car rides and will sleep and smile in the car seat. Mommy has been cleared to drive and encouraged to walk, so we dropped Dad off at work and went to the post office and then to WDW Ticketing to meet all Mommy's peers. It was nice to be out!
On Thurs night the whole family (bacchus doggy too) went for a walk to visit Jeannine down the street. She is feeling better and we will spend lots of time with her soon!
Then Dad and I watched our first CUBS game together while Mommy got a chance to shower. Go CUBS!
