Day 1: Disney World

It's that time again... Disney World time!  Can you believe it's taken us almost a month to blog about our week at the Happiest Place on Earth?  Hopefully we can get caught up before Thanksgiving!

On October 20th we headed to Disney World...

I was SUPER excited!

Checking out all the emergency procedures on the plane...

Waiting on our luggage...

Excited to see Snow White!

and mommy was excited to see Mickey!

Goofy!

 

Look it's the Tree of Life!

 

Finally on the Magical Express bus to our resort... Wilderness Lodge.

We spent a couple of hours settling in and then we headed straight for Hollywood Studios...

The Disney Jr. characters were not meeting that night, but I was content to pose with their sets...

Jake...

Sophia...

We decided to play at the Disney Jr. dance party, this is as close to Sofia as I got all trip (her lines were very long).  The dance party was a little overwhelming to me for our first night so I quickly bailed.  We enjoyed people watching, seeing the Ariel show and exploring some of the hidden parts of the park...

Look a bunny!

Mom loves Kermit!  Isn't this statue cool?

 

Catching Up Part 2

3rd post today, so make sure you click through all of them grandparents!

Wednesday...

Thursday...

Friday...

Friday was early dismissal so we headed over to Leah's for a Halloween party!

We had arts and crafts, played games and even had a pinata!

Nutcracker rehearsal...

Aidan's birthday party (from my class)...

On Monday at PE I was "running like a helicopter" and fell.  I did not catch myself at all and landed smack on my eye. :( 

No fun at all!

I pretty much refused pictures the rest of the week...

Here it is Thursday before ballet...

 

Friday my class got to have a bubble party...

It was fun, but I wasn't feeling well so I left with mom afterwards...  Later that evening after daddy left to go camping I started complaining that my throat felt like it was closing.  One quick trip to the doctor and we found out I had strep throat. :(

The weekend went down hill from there.  I was feeling really icky and all my clothes started feeling really icky.  I missed my daddy and Maggie and my leg hurt from my fall.  I was a mess!

On Sunday we had Karissa's birthday party... after fighting clothing for a good 30 minutes I finally agreed to go to the party...

See... not my typical party attire!

Monday was a holiday and we visited daddy at work... I was still feeling pretty crummy!

 

Mom stopped taking pictures at that point.  I was refusing to get dressed in the morning, fighting clothes, crying... just miserable!  It had been building up over the two weeks before, but being sick and injured was my tipping point and my anxiety triggered some sensory issues.  On Thursday we went to an occupational therapist to have me evaluated and I qualified for therapy for Sensory Processing Disorder.  Pretty much school made me anxious and it flared up.  I've always been more sensitive to sounds, smells and textures... but it had gotten to a point that I just couldn't handle it.

Here I am Wednesday...

Starting to pep up a little bit!

Thursday...

and Friday (my last day before vacation)... mom started figuring out what shirts I would tolerate and you will be seeing a lot of these skirts with shorts under them... I just can't handle pants right now!

Rattler of the Month!

A post from mommy...

I am so proud of Miss Milla!  She was awarded Rattler of the Month for Good Citizenship!  Only 5 kids in the entire school are honored with this each month!  What a way to start off her school career!

Here is what her teacher wrote about her...

This was also picture day... Here is her picture!  When did my girl get this big?  So proud of my little princess!

October Part 1

Time to catch this blog up!  Lots of before school pictures, not a ton of stories...

When you get 5 green crayons (for great behavior) you get to choose a prize or you get a coupon to bring a stuffed animal.  I ALWAYS choose the coupon!

Johnny Appleseed Day!

Another Monday!

Landry and I got to go down to the office to collect the Spirit Stick... it was for having the most PTA memberships.
