Guess i'm boring too...but not as boring as you since I still have a couple hours to remedy my boringness
That's a total bummer about your kids. Hope they get better quick. I don't know how parents do it taking care of more than 1 sick child. You guys have patience, that's for sure. And praying the baby will be okay! That's so scary.
Everybody is getting better. DD still has a low grade fever though.
We've been sick for the past two weeks so we have been very boring too. I plan to go to bed soon so have a not so wild night planned.
I've been staying up late, yet we can't sleep anyway with kids constantly waking us, so what does it matter?
Man, this seems like the right place to come to for support. Both the boys have been sick. Waiting to ring in the New Year (20 minutes to go), reading the boards while the kids sleep in our bed. A very bad habit that happens when they're sick that I wish we would have never started.
We'll be praying for your kiddos and your family. The flu's rough on little guys.
Seems like this year has been a rough one. All kinds of bugs going around. At least we didn't get the puking one yet. That is always the worst!
While you were DIS'ing, I was snoozing!
DH and I were in bed by 9 watching TV until we fell asleep at 10. Staying up till midnight on NYE just doesn't have that same appeal when you know your kid is still going to be up at 6:30 am.
Yuck... at least our kids are night owls like us. We have a hard time getting them to bed, but they sure do know how to sleep in.
So sorry to hear that the kids are sick. But at least you still have a buffer before your DL trip to get everyone feeling better. I had a dream about our upcoming DL trip last night, and of course everything was going wrong. Must mean the trip is getting closer!!
I hope y'all have a great time!!
Hopefully we'll get everyone better quickly! DD still has a low grad fever, yet she is acting a lot better.
I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one who has those dreams.
Hope everyone gets to feeling better real soon!
Me too! Thanks!
Aw, sorry to hear all the kiddos are sick. I hope you and your DW stay healthy and that the kiddos are all better for the big
Disneyland trip!
Happy new year! I hope you have year full of good health and all good things, for you and your family.
So far DW and I have been ok. DS seems to be over it, but DD still has a fever. She just can't shake it.
Thank you! I wish you the best in this New Year as well!
Hi Andy! Can't wait to read more about your trip. Your kids are adorable. Sorry that they're under the weather.
Thanks! Hopefully we'll rebound and be ready to hit California running!
Good job with the car. I too am guilty of the last minute bag
. Nice Mcqueen suitcase DSs have them too and I hate them because you can only fit like two days worth of clothes in them but, they are super cute especially rolling down the "road" at AOA. I can't believe someone actually stopped in the middle of the road to take a picture, what an idiot.
Yeah, Lightning is a little bit on the small side. We actually just put all our swim gear in it this time.
It was interesting to see... I mean if you're going to do it at least
try to get out of the traffic lanes.
Sorry to hear the kids are sick and plans had to be cancelled. Here's hoping you and DW don't come down with it.
Happy New Year to your beautiful family.
We're doing fine so far... I don't know how, I always catch everything the kids get.
Thanks!
Better for it all to hit now, as un fun as that is, and not impact your trip! Feel better!
Oh yeah, definitely! DW has been anal about the hand sanitizer and trying to avoid being around other kids, except for family, ever since we got home. I was kind of thinking it was overkill. I figured that we're going to get it eventually, so might as well get it over with before we have to leave!
You have some amazing packing skills. Holy cow...that was a long car trip especially with the delays. I got a little crazy on the 9 hour drive back to KC and its only my dog and I in the car.
You know, I don't mind driving at all. I can handle long drives like that with no problem. As long as other passengers aren't driving me nuts.
What is with people losing all common sense?!?!? Stopping in the middle of a 3 lane highway is SUCH a great idea. *sigh*
He just needed to make sure he had that perfect picture for his TR.
I hope you guys are all feeling better! Happy New Year!
Jill in CO
I think we're close! DD just needs to shake that fever!
Happy New Year! I hope the kids bounce back quickly!
Thanks! They're making good progress.
Awesome work on packing the car...until your wife had 3 more bags! Of course you made it work though! Sounds like the drive went relatively smooth with the exception of the construction. Can't wait to hear more!
Thanks! At least the bags she added were soft sided, didn't have anything breakable and they weren't huge.
I thought that I was the only one who did that!
Well, based on all these replies, apparently just about all the Dis'ers I know have to to this to their families. Do you think this has something to do with all us trip planners being type A?
Yep, I've heard that one before.
It's usually a really big, heavy piece of luggage that would be perfect for the bottom of the tetris puzzle too.
Fortunately, that wasn't the case. It was soft sided bags that could be squished. You may think those guys at the airport can crush a bag, but they've got nothing on me!
Unbelieveable. But unfortunately, I believe it.
Yep. Why else would they have a sign and those white "don't park here dummy" stripes on the shoulder?
