Return to the land of the ice and cold
Feb. 8th, 2011 07:13 pmMy husband started his new job today and so I was alone with the baby. He's gone into work a few times since she's been born, but now him not going into work will be the exception rather than the rule. I think we both miss him already.
Today was hectic and involved some of those fun moments that tell you that you are parent such as: being piddled on, trying to get boogies out of your baby's nose, and getting puked on. About the only thing she didn't do was poop on me today. I felt really bad about the puking, but she seems somewhat settled and fell soundly asleep on my chest which is one of those things that always makes me feel loved and happy. That and seeing her cute little smile always makes me smile and feel at peace.
The trip to Walt Disney World went well and I think I've now drank the Mickey punch since I want to go back. It's just such a great place to go with a baby/kid because you can take them to restaurants and not feel bad if they get fussy. Plus (and this is the major selling point in my book) it is much warmer than here and there are heated pools and hot tubs. (vs. here where there are ICE STORMS! YEAH!)
For those curious high points:
We all enjoyed the Disney Princess Lunch, me, Adina, my Mom and my Mother in law. Though Ariel was sort of wench.
Jiko, The Wave of American Flavors and the California Grill would be delicious to eat at no matter where they were located.
Adina did GREAT on the plane! She fussed a little bit when taking off for FL (only enough for the family in front of us to hear and they had a little girl so I am sure they understood) and within 5 minutes she settled down. She spent a lot of the flight sleeping on my lap. She was a little fussy when landing but less so than the first take-off. Our flight home went even better since it was around her bed time so there was very little fussing.
I got to ride Splash Mountain!
Our hotel was gorgeous and we had a non water-view waterview.
Adina liked the swimming pool!
Wishes Fireworks, even if Clamp has forever ruined the word "wishes" for me and I just keep imagining people like Fuuma and Lelouch talking about wishes.
Negatives:
After spending part of the day in Epcot, I realized how hard it was taking Adina to the parks and pumping. The Baby Care Center is super nice, but it makes it so hard to do other things and Adina just would rather sleep.
1900 Park Fare was super loud and possibly made me feel ill (though the characters there were great!)
WDW kept losing our dinner reservations (which made me feel a lot less guilty when we were late)
The pillows sucked. They were like fake down, and I lie my pillows much much firmer.
I gained back (plus some) any weight I had lost ~.~
Overall it was a lot of fun and we got to see![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ad_exia though I forgot to take a picture despite bringing my camera and dressing up Adina.
My grandmother keeps canceling and un-canceling her 90th birthday party on Sunday and I wish she would make up her mind. If it was me... I would totally have one!
