On Day 2 of the trip we celebrated Stellyn's official 1st birthday! We spent much of the day at Magic Kingdom! This is just a place holder post so I can print these photos out at a later date...if you watched that WHOLE BIG LONG movie than you already saw all these...if not this post is like the Cliff Notes to the movie:)
If you saw the full series of photos of Aston perched on this wall you would see all the pouty faces he made...he's all about the pout pose lately...
The goal once we got there was to get to the Dumbo ride. The fastest way was on this train apparently...which was a "ride" in itself!
Meet Beverly! We were all so excited to meet her and she was all we had hoped for...great with the kids...and great with Pop:)
Here's that Dumbo ride...Aston escaped the 30 minute line more than once but eventually made it aboard...they LOVE it...
Then we went to lunch (insert a couple tantrums)...then we got stuck in the middle of a parade...the parade was awesome but the kids were DONE!
Mei is good when's she's DONE...she just passes out...
But Aston...he just gets NUTS! Looooopy!!!
When we returned Mom and Chuck had arrived! I love these Mickey Ears Babs got Stell...
We had snacks...
Then off to Charley's for the big Birthday Dinner...check out the purple Lee's...it's the official family color:)
Birthday girl hung out with Gram most of the night...so dinner out was actually pretty pleasant for me!
There was this cool aquarium with eels and sharks...eeewwweee
They had this whole vacant dining area next to our table so the kids got to run around...and around...and around...
Yes...that's the nail polish he had on for weeks because I neglected to remove it...and yes he's watching Backyardigans at the dinner table.
This is Mei's "snuggies" sign...she made it up herself...she does this when she wants her Puppy lovey...
Mom? Did you bring my Puppy?
ahhhh...Mom! you always forget Puppy!
I guess this ball will have to do...
He's behind me isn't he?
Oh man...he got me...
These party hats are 30 years old. Gram fished them out of her attic and says they are from my 3rd birthday party...the elastic was all deteriorated but otherwise they were pristine:)
Dang that's some big cake...
BB and Babs gave Mei a Pooh Bear for her birthday...and Aston delivered it...
She LOVES this Pooh bear...LOVES him...
Insert Mom tears...
After the big dinner some of our party went to hang out late night at Magic Kingdom to see the Light Show..
The boys: don't they look like they are out "clubbin'" together?
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Gram and I hung out with the birthday girl in her birthday suit...there's nothing better than a naked baby and pots and pans...the poor people in the unit below were probably so upset with us...this was like 10:30 pm...ooops
Happy Birthday Buggy! It's been a crazy CRAZY year but we wouldn't have changed a minute of it...we love you BIG!
