Combo Class @ Mountain Center

thewilson3 — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 15:00:38 +0000

Mercedes turned 3 on November and is FINALLY able to
take dance or gymnastics without an adult.

I’m not as crazy as some people think. . .

I did not sign her up for classes in December.

We waited until January.

I love how she’s looking right at me in the middle picture.

She’s not sure about everything in the gym.

But Mommy is SOOOOOO glad she’s learning some gym skills.

We are going to have to practice some things at home.

She’s the youngest and the smallest. DUH!

She gets frustrated when she can’t do things like the other girls.

So much fun to watch!!

SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH FUN!!!

Helping in the Kitchen

Need I say more?!?!?

Moon Dough

thewilson3 — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 15:00:12 +0000

My new favorite “toy” is Moon Dough.

It’s like play dough, only not oily, sticky, and doesn’t dry out!

Mercedes got some for her birthday and Mommy loves it!

She does too. She’ll spend hours playing.

I love that it’s easy to clean up.

I love that it won’t smash into my carpet.

I love that it doesn’t dry out, so we can play all day!

I love that she loves it!!

Painting in the Bath Tub!

My kid is creative.

She comes by that naturally.

I tend to indulge her a little. . .

I bought her finger paints for the bath tub.

Dream Vacation ~ Reflections

thewilson3 — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 15:00:49 +0000

So there you have it! A “snapshot” of our trip.

As with any vacation, there are things I would do differently next time. . .

1. Take less clothes (I spent 4 days in my swimsuit).

2. Take Mercedes to the Oceaneer’s Club more.

3. Go to a few Adult Only Activities.

4. Visit Atlantis in Nassau.

5. Sleep less. . . play more!

As well as things I wouldn’t change for the WORLD!!

Here’s my Top Ten. . .

10. Taking a Disney vacation! Always a favorite of mine.

9. Short lines for Characters.

8. Reading the Navigator to plan out our day.

7. Disney movies on demand 24-7

6. Trying new foods!

5. Tomato, Ham, Mozzarella Panini’s & French fries

4. Truly Relaxing. . . we had no agenda!

3. The crew! Mark and Ashon were two of our favorites.
And Olivia was the ONLY reason Mercedes went to play with the kids.

2. Getting to go on a REAL cruise with my husband!

1. Watching my daughter meet her “friends.”

Dream Vacation ~ The Whole Gang

thewilson3 — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 19:00:11 +0000

It took until the last day of the trip to get everyone’s signature.

Then FINALLY we got them!

The Whole Gang!

SO fun!!

We couldn’t go home without the WHOLE GANG!!

At the end I was getting worried.

While we took pictures with Minnie before getting on the boat,

we didn’t get her signature.

Then we hadn’t seen Daisy or Donald all trip.

The last day!! Whew!!

What a GANG!!

Dream Vacation ~ Beach Day 2

thewilson3 — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 15:00:12 +0000

Ahhhhhhhh. . . the beach!

SOOOO MUCH SAND!!

I have to say, as much as I loved our Beach days. . .

I DO NOT LIKE THE SAND CLEAN UP!!

That being said. . .

Ahhhhhhhh. . . the beach!

Lord, THANK YOU FOR Gran’pa’s!!!

Mommy actually got to sit on the lounger and relax.

Mercedes and Gran’pa spent LOTS of time in the Ocean.

THANK YOU Gran’pa!! THANK YOU!!!

Mommy doesn’t do “getting cold”. . .
unless is involves to skinny pieces of wood and a mountain. . .
So, Mommy didn’t get in the Ocean.

THANK YOU Gran’pa!! THANK YOU!!!

As much as I HATE sand clean up. . .

This sand is WAY better to play with than Playground Sand.

It’s soft, yet sturdy.

It’s fine, yet solid!

Ahhhhhhhh. . . the beach!

I still would take a snowy mountain over a sandy beach ANY DAY!!
