DisneyMoon



Finally I have a moment to sit, reflect, and enjoy some of our wonderful memories from our Disney Moon. I cannot seem to find the words to express just how enchanting that week was. It was magical, but should I have really expected anything different, after all it is disney! 





We arrived early Thursday afternoon and was welcomed at our wonderful resort, Port Orleans Riverside. I had done a decent amount of research on which resort would be romantic, fun, and not to much of a splurge. Port Orleans was the perfect match, especially because Kaleb had been stationed in New Orleans for three years. It was the best of both worlds, disney and New Orleans.



We of course had to get our happily ever after pins, and I absolutely adored being told congratulations by so many sweet people. It was a nice way of remembering that not only were we in Disney, but we were celebrating the beginning of our adventures as husband and wife. 


Our days were spent enjoying the parks, riding the rides, and of course meeting all of "our" favorite characters. 

Our nights were spent enjoying the most amazing dinning experiences. We had purchased the disney dinning plan with our vacation package, and it was worth every penny! We had made reservations for some of the most romantic restaurants I could find, this was another research project of mine, making sure we found the romance while still in disney. Every restaurnt we went to offered us champagne and of course congratulations, have I mentioned that I loved being told congratulations! 


Especially when it comes on my favorite dessert! 



The disney experience was of course magical, but that's not the only thing that made it perfect. It was a week spent with my very own Prince Charming, an entire week just the two of us. It was Kaleb being willing to transfer onto every ride because he knew what it meant to me. It was the smile on his face when we met the princesses because he knew I was beyond excited. It was the time we spent talking about our future and how we cannot wait to bring our children and grandchildren into the parks. 

Between eating in Belle's castle, or enjoying champagne in France, it is so hard to pick a favorite moment. The whole experience was enchanting and filled with fabulous memories. What other honeymoon destination can you tour the world, dine with your favorite characters, and ride a spaceship our of this galaxy all in six days. 


It was perfect!



XOXO,

Top 10 Tips for Flying with an Infant

Last week we spent the entire week in Cincinnati for the national veterans wheelchair games, which was probably one of the most incredible experiences of my life, but we will save that for a different post. We met great people, had wonderful conversation, and took our sweet girl on her first airplane ride. Being the crazy mom that I am, I stressed about the plane ride for far to long and made way to many mental notes on how to survive it. I asked everyone who had ever flown with a child what to do and received some great advice. My goal is to break it down into the top 10 things you "need" in order to survive flying with a baby! 1. Plastic Bags are Your Friend Prior to heading out to the airport I separated Ellie's diaper back with gallon size baggies. I had all her diapers and wipes packed in one, toys in another, and food in it's own. It made fast diaper changes before take off a breeze, as well as finding snacks in the air. Everything had its place an...

Nine Months

        My Sweet Eloise Jeanne, Month nine has come and gone and mama has been the worst at putting this together. Has with every month this one has been equally busy and equally different. I find myself smelling your sweet baby scent as it becomes fainter. I hold you nightly after you have fallen asleep staring at your sweet tiny face. This month I feel that we said goodbye to my baby baby and began welcoming our soon to be toddler. Your personality has come out in force, you know what you want and will do whatever it takes to get it. You are determined and strong willed, both qualities that I know will take you far in the future. I miss my baby baby but love playing with my new toddler girl. This month was a huge month for mobility. We went from not really being able to move at all to moving constantly. On July 25th you began trying to army crawl and can successfully get yourself from one place to another. On Friday,...

Eleven Months

Hello Eloise Jeanne,  Can you believe it, you are eleven months old. This month was different than the others because I knew exactly what we were doing a year ago. I remember celebrating you with our church family back home, I remember making the long drive to Albuquerque for the Balloon Fiesta and celebrating you at Aunt Becca's shower. I remember feeling as though I couldn't get any bigger and then I did. I remember counting each of your kicks to make sure you were growing just right. You were my best friend long before I met you and you captured my wold long before the world greeted you.  This month you seemed to truly embrace that crazy toddler side and nothing can stop our speed crawler. You know exactly where the dog food is and love to play in Chuck's water, chuck does not find it quite as amusing. You are love to smile, you are constantly smiling and waving at anyone and everyone. You figured out how to wave, the sweet little precious wave whe...
