Day 3 and 4!

Sorry a little while between posts! Gotta love that thing we call work!

So on Day 2 we went to 3 Different parks! It was a very busy day and we walked about 15 miles that day! Crazy!

We started off at Animal Kingdom in the morning.. I chose to wear sandals this day because it was going to be our shortest morning with a break in the afternoon before Micky's Not So Scary Halloween Party! Bad Idea.... lol we walked fast to the safari.. bad idea. But it still turned out pretty good :)

The safari was awesome! Since it was early enough alot of the animals were out!!

 In Front of the Tree of Life!

 Tree Of Life!

 Hippos!

 Giraffe! They had 3 new babies, since it was early we got a few close ups!! (Dannys phone in the picture haha)

The White Rhinos, which are new.. strolled right on by the truck!! 

The animal kingdom looked a lot different from what I remembered it. But I guess thats a good thing! It was so nice this time of year, hardly any waits.. not super crowded! Wonderful! I think the longest wait time was like an hour, but we got a fast pass for it and went and rode Expedition Everest, which wasn't as scary as the last time I rode it hahah we were at the very end! We had lots of fun! Dinosaur was a very rough ride lol being jammed back and fourth and it smelled lol!

After walking around and taking pictures and doing some rides we headed back to the room around 2:30-3 and then walked over to Epcot for dinner at Bergarten.. I probably totally spelled that wrong lol! It was in Germany, it was ok not the best food i've ever eaten.. minus the potato salad!! Yum. After that. We walked back to the hotel and got ready for the Halloween Party!! 

It was so much fun I hope we get to do it again sometime!! 

 I wore the buns for like.. an hour and had to take them off.. LOL Sweat central.. and Danny wanted me to wear a wig!?

 That sight will never get old <3 p="">

 I wore my crocs instead of tennis shoes.. because they felt better than my sandals or tennis.. LOL

 I traded the buns for the Ears ;)

 The music from the parade has been stuck in my head lol

 I have  a TON Of pictures but of course don't wanna overload you ;)

 Kids at heart!

The rarity of the evening! All Seven Dwarfs!  This was one of the things I knew we had to do LOL besides the parade, trick or treating and fireworks!  So we hopped in line and got our picture with them! The Fireworks were awesome! We got stuck in behind the castle in New Fantasyland, which actually turned out pretty cool we were in the middle of them! It was a lot of fun! 

We went back to the room and crashed.. we got to sleep in a little bit since there wasn't much to do at epcot as far as rides and the World Showcase didn't open until 11. So we did a few rides and lunch before walking into the World Showcase :)

More on Epcot next time!

Can we go back yet?? Days 1 and 2 :)

We got home on Saturday night.. we had a very good trip! The flight down was so uneventful it was awesome! Other than being tired and having shitty side effects from my medicine all was good.. I had to stop taking my medicine.. because 2 days before we left I got 4 hours total of sleep in 2 days.. Yeah I wasn't a nice person LOL. So insomnia was one side effect.. then I felt like I couldn't breath or catch my breath on the plane..omg the worst.

 When we got there.. we got to our room and had about 35-40 min before my sister and her family came down to meet us for dinner!! So I took a quick shower and then we headed down to the board walk :) Oh it was beautiful!!  Loved our hotel!

 Me, Angie, Lee, Connor and Madison

 Danny, Me, Angie, Connor and Madison

The View from our room! If you look straight ahead you can see the Epcot ball!

We were about a 10 min walk from the backside of Epcot and a 15-20 min walk to Hollywood Studios :)

Dinner was fabulous! My niece and nephew are the cutest things ever. They warmed up to us fast which made me happy! We had dinner and then walked all the way around the boardwalk which was nice! We will get to see them again in March because they are coming out here! That's exciting :). That night we went to Downtown Disney.. It was super busy there because everyone can go there! I had Ghiradehli Ice cream... Yum. We didn't even attempt the Lego store.. because another symptom was anxiety.. which I was having a bunch of.. and shortness of breath.. so we called it a night around 10 ish and caught a bus back to the resort and hoped down to the pool for a quick swim!  After that we called it a night :)

The next morning we headed to Hollywood studios! I'm not a huge fan of this park.. Only for Indian Jones and Star Wars lol and the shows most of the rides are outdated. But it still nice to walk around :). We had dinner at Mama Melrose.. OMG it was to DIE for! Best steak ever.. 

 At our resort that morning before heading over!

 At the entrance :)

 The hat!

 We got to meet Mike and Sully from Monsters U (Sully even hat the retainer LOL)

And Fantasia Mickey :) !!

We were pretty dead by the end of this day.. You walk alot.. LOL Danny spent a ton of money in the Star Wars store hahah. I did make a little R2D2 guy :) he was cute! Danny made his own light saber and a Yoda R2D2!  This was the night I decided to stop taking my medicine cause.. the side effects were not treating me well. The Fantasmic show was pretty sweet :) We were going to ride Tower of Terror.. because I never have.. but then Danny wasn't feeling well so we skipped it.. Maybe next year! 

That's all for now!! Don't want to make this post so huge its too long to read :) I'll do Animal Kingdom and Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party  next time!! And I'll eventually just do and all pictures post!

PS: My baby dog gets neutered tomorrow :( Poor Rocky!! 

3 days!!!

We have 3 days until vacation and 4 days till Disney!! Cannot wait! So I better update this thing while I have some form of a blog post in my head, and before we leave because I will not have time!!


This past weekend was a good one :) We went shopping! I was excited LOL haven't gone shopping for anything fun in a while! We have scrimped and saved to be able to go for having just decided to go right after the new year. I think? We are taking just about 1000 dollars with us :) of course some of that is for extras such as food at airport and baggage fees and all that good stuff.  Being the shoppy person that I am hahah I'm afraid we don't have enough! But I just have to think to myself.. we only have so much room and we plan on going back next year as a whole family thing :D !

I don't remember if I mentioned that I finally got my hutches from mom and dad.. Love them and they  are all put together :) Now I just need a curio cabinet for my other wall in the living room.. the blank space is kinda annoying me. I need to get my spare room cleaned up so I can get to my sewing machine and make my pillows and fix the stuff that is piling up LOL That will be my mission when we get back!

Rocky and Wrangler will be up at my parents for the week.. I'm so scared Rocky will destroy something! Or be a pain because he is so stubborn and sometimes doesn't listen! But they will have his kennel and a huge yard and Bailey LOL ! They are gonna try and go for walks..Rocky is awesome on a leash but if he sees something he will pull your arm off unless you make him sit or yank to correct him. But i'm sure he will be fine.. getting way to many treats from Grandma and Grandpa lol.

I'm also worried about being delayed at the airport like last time :/ we spent 10 hours in Dallas it was not fun.. it ruined our whole week there because we wanted to go to Downtown Disney.. We're hoping this time we get to! If we have delays I want them on the way back!! Plus this time we are flying out of Houston and with a different airline lol.. Please pray for safe travel and no delays!! Oh lord please!! That is all we ask for!!

It should be pretty slow and relaxing at Disney because this is one of the lowest tourist times :) I wonder if it will be like having the park to ourself? LOL Probably not but might not be as busy as when we went on our Honeymoon!  Since we are going to the Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party.. we're Dressing up... I'm going to be Leia and Danny is gonna be a Jedi LOL, Honestly I hate dressing up but since its for Disney ;)

Went to the Dr yesterday.. because of my allergies being all lovely.. I decided to make sure I didn't have a sinus infection .. (been super clogged and pressure) She wasn't sure if it was or wasn't a sinus infection.. so I got anitbiotics anyways to be better safe than sorry and  a prescription for Singulair!  Even tho I bought Allegra D.. we will give it a go and see how I do! So far I've taken one tablet and I feel pretty good :) Had a mild sore throat this morning, but that can be the antibiotic or sigulair oh goody LOL.

And of course Danny is sick with a summer cold or something. Ugh.. Not cool!!

Well I think thats it for now!! Till I'm back from DisneyWorld!!

~Nicki

2 weeks.

And I will be on a plane.. well at this time.. just about to land in Orlando. Woo! It really can't come fast enough.. I'm at the end of my rope and need something to get away.. Its my 2 days off and all I really wanna be somewhere other than here.

Haven't been doing much but working.. and working some more. My mind totally went blank... Oh yeah.. I really need to go over and see April and Chloe. I got some outfits for her :) Can't help myself I don't have anyone else to buy for! Maybe tomorrow when Danny gets off. I wanna put my hutch together tonight, finally got them from my parents.

I've been so tired and groggy lately.. because my allergies have been terrible.. my nose has been clogged.. especially when I sleep! Ugh.. I wake up once or twice and it takes forever to get my nose UNCLOGGED!  Then I fall back asleep till like 930 10 :/ doesn't make for a very productive day!  Right now i'm tired.. Ugh.


There is so much I want to talk about but my brian is not with me right now. So.. more later.. maybe!

~Nicki

Squeee!!!

Exactly ONE MONTH From today I will be on a plane to Disney World!! So excited to go again! Its been way to long... AND I get to see my Sister, BIL and Niece and Nephew ... I've never met my Nephew.. and haven't seen my niece sine she was 9 months.. she will be 6 Sept 25 AHHH!!


Life is Crazy.

PS: Danny Sprained his ankle pretty good.. and have I ever mentioned .. he is STUBBORN.

PPS: I have to work at 9 am tomorrow.. ew.. SO I need to go to bed.. which is ok because i'm tired.

Goodnight!

~Nicki

Super Duper Lazy.

Oops I slept till almost 10 today!! I woke up at 8 intended to sleep for just a few more min.. guess I was tired!!

So... lately I've been dwelling on whether or not to do another IVF or embryo adoption.. Part of me says just go 100% for embryo adoption.. its easier on my body vs. another IVF. Embryo adoption we get all their left over embryos, IVF unless my eggs cooperate we get nothing after wards.. Sooo.. yeah my whole thing i'm stuck on is.. a Biological child.. Granted I could love any child like its my own.. But the fact that I may have to explain to a child one day.. I carried you but you aren't really mine? I probably could in the future.. but the thought of it right now scares the daylights out of me.. I guess if I wasn't scared tho i'd be weird ;)

Not to mention after I get another lap.. Danny says we should do it when we get back from Disney. Not against it but..its in the middle of the Holiday season.. and we now have a new leave process at work. Ew. It does not sound like fun.. so i'll have to get information on that! We will do a few IUIs and maybe a miracle will occur??

I started supplements again this time a few different ones. Started Vitamin E, Evening Primrose oil and a vitamin for my hair and such! I will add Red Clove and Red Raspberry Leaf  ( when I find them!) and then CoQ-10 again! And gotta get Danny his again too.

I need to get cleaning the spare room today.. I'm itching to sew my pillows for my couch!! Plus have a bunch of other stuff I need to attempt! Carpet in living room and dining room gets replaced on Wednesday and then next weekend I can go get my China Hutch from my moms!

When Danny gets home were going to go to Wally in Pueblo West and see if they have the blender I want and the pot Danny broke that I JUST bought and it was our last one. Sad day...

On a random note.. me and Danny just had our 6 year anniversary.. Um.. Wow. Really!? Crazy to think how long we have been together!  We have made quite the life here in our little house :) 2 lazy dogs and  3 even lazier kitties.. ( I want another kitten.. yeah I know i'm crazy.. call it my mothering instinct). << Danny doesn't know that yet LOL!

Well seeing as how its 12:40 I guess I should get cracking and do something besides eat breakfast and do the dishes and play Farmville 2.  Its just a lazy day.. Maybe I'll go check the garden to see if there is any yummy ready to eat!

~Nicki

Here's the Scoop.

So.. We've been trying to stay busy and frankly it doesn't look like were getting anywhere. Probably because we do not see eachother.. Danny will be off by 3 pm today and tomorrow... Depending on the weather will decide if we finish painting the living room or do more of the patio. Supposed to rain. Which we have been getting alot of lately!! But its making the weeds grow in my garden like CRAZY. We just weeded last weekend.. and had to do it again yesterday... I'll finish it today.


I finally wrote a list for Danny of all the stuff that needs to be done LOL lets see if he does any of it ;).  He finally called a few banks the other day. The only real answer we got is we don't know how much we can get until our house is appraised.. which to get the amount we want.. it has to appraise at 150. HA. Soo.. I could be totally right in the fact we may be royally screwed. But I guess we would be happy with whatever we get. I don't think any one would give us a personal loan for 35 grand? Didn't think so LOL.

Ugh I feel like i'm all over the place.. in my head I am all worked out lol! Don't you ever wish you were as productive as your brain is when you think of what you wanna do the next day or the things your wanna say?? Yeah That always happens to me.. it never occurs the way I think it should lol!

I feel like I have so much more to say.. but lots of stuff to do around the house.. more weeding, laundry and getting things back together..

Sorry for being so boring lately ;) Hopefully wanna get some pictures up of what we've done soon!
