Ok, so its been awhile...
September flew by. We closed on our house (finally!) and got temporarily moved. We went to Disney world for a week, came home and went to Minneapolis for a wedding right after. I had a solid week of work and meeting (yuck). And that is how it got to be October already. Ellie had a blast at Disney. She was so excited to be going. I was so glad we were able to take her again. A lot of people have told me "she won't remember it" and "You really should wait until she is older" But you know, in her eyes, its real. All of it. She thinks the whole place is full of magic and sunshine, all the time. It is a toddler's perfect world. And life is too short to just keep waiting. She may not remember it forever, but I sure will.
Ellie insists she is going to be Alice in wonderland this year. Never mind that she could be a princess, so I could reuse my costume I bought. Never mind that she looks NOTHING like Alice. " I'm GOING to be Alice." period. End of discussion. Fine, whatever.
