Alot of the time he claims he enjoys his role. But lately he has been on a kick of wanting a brother. I should get it on video, but here are a few of the lyrics from his "song". And no, we are not adding a boy anytime soon. I would consider a BOY dog before a boy boy. ;-) For the record, we HAVE considered getting ANOTHER dog, but then our common sense did kick in (which is rare actually, that we use common sense!) and we decided now might not be the best time for a puppy either.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"I am only 9 years old&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; nah nah nah nah&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And I am tortured from my head to my toes&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;nah nah nah nah&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have ONE&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;nah nah&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;TWO&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;nah nah&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;THREE&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;nah nah&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;FOUR sisters&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;and it is not fair, I need a brotherrrrrrrrrrrr"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;There was more to it, maybe I can get him to re-sing for a video!

This is the first time in 12 years that I have not had a baby or waiting for a baby.  VERY strange to be honest.  But for now, I LIKE IT!  ;-)  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;However, to be honest, when I really think that my BABY, our Sage is 4, it does make me sad.  I tell her all the time she has to stop growing.  And sometimes she says &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;ok&lt;/span&gt;, she wants to stay my baby.  Other times she tells me to " get on a plane &amp;amp; go to China and get my own baby because she is NOT the baby anymore! " &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Some Sage stuff for 4 years old....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;she is SMART.  To smart that is for sure.  You can just see the wheels turning.  She can spell her first &amp;amp; last name along with most of our names in the house.  She remembers EVERYTHING.  (which is not always good for me!) She came home with a paper from school today and I swear I could have mistaken it for &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Makennas&lt;/span&gt; handwriting.  Can count high, knows all her letters, recites the books of the bible, and knows the words to just about any song that comes on the radio. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Still has her deep voice.  her singing is hilarious it is so low. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Likes school, but is my first child that is getting in trouble in school!  She has a listening issue.  If Ms Renee tells her to get in line, she might, or she might not.  Depends. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;VERY athletic.  And competitive.  Not a good combination I am going to guess.  She is determined and will practice her cartwheels forever till it is right.   Or kicking a soccer ball. Or riding a bike.  I have never seen someone go faster on a scooter that is twice their size than with her!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;She is HILARIOUS!  i have honestly never met anyone funnier than my daughter.  No matter how mad I am at her, (and believe me, she is STILL spicy!) one look at her and I crack up. I don't know what you do with that.   She &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;cutesies&lt;/span&gt; her way out of everything.  Which is so annoying to the other children, but she typically has the same effect on them.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Which leads us back to the not listening issue.  She does not listen.  EVER.  She is in her own little world much of the time.  We are working on this.  Cute won't get her out of all school trouble I am afraid! &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Still has her spicy moments.  Often.  Tonight as we cleaned her room we uncovered PILES of candy that she had stashed and had been enjoying during "&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;naptime&lt;/span&gt;".  (chewed up gum in the carpet, suckers stuck to the rugs...)  Still forgets (yeah right!) that my furniture is not for drawing on.  For whatever reason she still believes that if you are not eating or drinking at your place, she is free to go to your spot and have her fill.  She is the child you will find climbing the unclimbable, actually this is a whole post in itself so I will just stop here!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sage &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;ChenYi&lt;/span&gt; Mae.  My baby and a true blessing to our family.  She is a pure joy and I am still in awe that God picked ME to be her mommy forever.  My heart is full as we celebrate 4 years of our gift, my Sage. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-4321210243557508303?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/4321210243557508303/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=4321210243557508303&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/4321210243557508303'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/4321210243557508303'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/12/my-baby-turns-4.html' title='My baby turns 4!'/><author><name>Shannon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17746735954722210856</uri><email>laxton@htc.net</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09005716617030292144'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/Sxc9aRT5sBI/AAAAAAAAF7A/xeb_PAksB8Q/s72-c/DSC_4954.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19751590.post-8426011319846030088</id><published>2009-11-29T22:50:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2009-12-02T21:54:48.642-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Sage party pictures</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/Sxc1pEuR6pI/AAAAAAAAF6g/p3KB43Ti0o0/s1600-h/IMGP0107.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

However, I have to give the credit to &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Makenna&lt;/span&gt;. I give her the ideas, she runs with them. Actually I typically steal/borrow the ideas off of a website that I need to share, and then she runs with them.

Sage has been really sick, bronchitis, we still had fun. She was very excited about her "Stitchy" cake. She loves Lilo &amp;amp; Stitch and while I tried to convince her that she would like pink cupcakes made by mommy, she insisted on Stitch.   Yes, it resembles a bunny rabbit, but not in her eyes.  ;-)  Will add more soon of her ride in the birthday Saddle at Texas Roadhouse and her Cinderella party.   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-4028639511271686788?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/4028639511271686788/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=4028639511271686788&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/4028639511271686788'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/4028639511271686788'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/11/sage-turns-4.html' title='Sage turns 4!!'/><author><name>Shannon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17746735954722210856</uri><email>laxton@htc.net</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09005716617030292144'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwjDDVbAxuI/AAAAAAAAF3Q/pSFugVocxSc/s72-c/DSC_4936.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19751590.post-317443632977331987</id><published>2009-11-18T15:12:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2009-11-18T15:46:12.103-06:00</updated><title type='text'>A Year of Mavery in Pictures</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwRqvIQYasI/AAAAAAAAF2I/ldTIGLfRknM/s1600/Halloween+080.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

turned 4 years old.  She had watched her 3 older siblings celebrate birthdays this year, so she was MORE than ready to have her birthday.  We opted to do a small family party just for her this time.  It is hard to believe that just barely over a year ago we had arrived home with Ms &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Mavery&lt;/span&gt; and then celebrated her 3rd birthday.  Here we are, a year later.  She has come SO FAR this year.  And while we are still working through some things, I want to share with you all the amazing things about &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Mavery&lt;/span&gt; and the changes we have seen. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;She is very artistic! When we first came home NOTHING could hold her attention.  Now, she LOVES to sit and color, draw, play-do, paint. We do have to remind her PAPER, not walls or skin or TEETH!?  I think she is going to follow in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Makenna's&lt;/span&gt; footsteps and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;enjoy&lt;/span&gt; arts and crafts. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;She sits for TV now!  ;-)  Not &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;alot&lt;/span&gt;, but she does enjoy Dora or Diego or Ni &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Hao&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Kailyn&lt;/span&gt;.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;She loves to sing. Taylor Swift is her favorite,  and I have heard Love Story more times than I care to.  but she likes it. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;She just recently learned to spell her name and she is very proud of that!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;She is doing well in school.  She is eager to report when SHE listens but a certain Chinese sister does not.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;She LOVES to give hugs &amp;amp; kisses. She is probably the most cuddly out of all my children.  Still happiest if she is in a lap.  And when she is in a lap, she is a LITTLE calmer, not quite so wiggly.  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;She adores Sage, she worships Sage, I am pretty sure she wants to BE Sage.  We are working on this. (not her becoming Sage of course, working on not repeating or copying EVERYTHING Sage does) I am thankful for the bond they share.   No they are not biological twins, though everyone thinks so. BUT they are sisters and I am not sure they could be closer if they were grown together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;When she sees a picture of our family, the 7 of us, she says "It is all my friends, I love all my friends together!".  i am not sure to read this as a good or bad thing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Would rather dress up than be in clothes.  AND if she is in dress up, you may ONLY call her Belle.  She will not answer to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Mavery&lt;/span&gt;, don't even try.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;is a good eater.  We have had some food issues over this year, but they have improved dramatically.  One thing that was suggested to us was to put a small cup of whatever in her room.  So we put a bowl in there of just a cracker broke up, a couple of m &amp;amp; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;m's&lt;/span&gt;, whatever is on hand.  She no longer wakes up screaming for food.  She gets up, eats whatever is in the bowl and then is happy till we get breakfast or dinner.  she is still VERY interested in food, and if you take her out to eat, you better hold on to her or she will be walking up to strangers tables asking for a bite!  But we know this comes from her past and so we are just working through it.  Amazed really at what that little bowl in her room has done for all of us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;She is funny! She likes to tease.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;She loves panda bears and hello kitty.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;She is a good sleeper.  Goes right to sleep (if the bowl has her snack!) and sleeps all night.  She is sharing a room with &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;Malaine&lt;/span&gt; right now.  Also still naps for me, 2 hours every day.  That is a good thing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;LOVES to pray.  Always chimes in with "I think it is my turn to "&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;pway&lt;/span&gt;".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Enjoys meeting new people, but will ask them over and over, "what's you name?" and I do mean Over and over.  I think this has to do w/ her silliness! &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Her hair!  Still not as long as she would like, she wants to have braids really bad.  But boy, is it gorgeous! THICK with this wave to it. Who knew &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;asian&lt;/span&gt; hair could curl! It is beautiful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;This year has not always been easy.  But as we look back over it we are amazed at the changes. God is teaching ALL of us things.  Growing us. Leading us. Loving us. Most important, showing us what love really is. Not always easy, not always natural. Sometimes it is a choice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So as we celebrate a year of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;Mavery&lt;/span&gt; &amp;amp; her 4&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; birthday I am thankful for choice.  That God chose ME to be her mommy. That God chose her as mine.  That He allowed us to choose His will over our own. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We love you &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;Mavery&lt;/span&gt;.  We really really do.  Happy Birthday!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-37929953560570002?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/37929953560570002/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=37929953560570002&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/37929953560570002'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/37929953560570002'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/11/mavery-turns-four.html' title='Mavery turns FOUR!'/><author><name>Shannon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17746735954722210856</uri><email>laxton@htc.net</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09005716617030292144'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwRZa6AAKvI/AAAAAAAAFz4/TEiUGav8pO8/s72-c/DSC_4871.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19751590.post-6709190236010427490</id><published>2009-11-17T22:28:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2009-11-17T23:11:27.534-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Happy Halloween 2009</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN8VnGJNuI/AAAAAAAAFy4/Kd9ZYV1zTz0/s1600/DSC_4862.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405300688488576738" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN8VnGJNuI/AAAAAAAAFy4/Kd9ZYV1zTz0/s400/DSC_4862.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN8VcoPfiI/AAAAAAAAFyw/4ljYWZOCbU8/s1600/DSC_4856.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405300685678804514" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN8VcoPfiI/AAAAAAAAFyw/4ljYWZOCbU8/s400/DSC_4856.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 427px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 338px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405299862937382242" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN7ljrZrWI/AAAAAAAAFyk/C67qPVkOlEo/s400/DSC_4853.JPG" /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN7lZ-4xsI/AAAAAAAAFyY/dnafblgukiY/s1600/DSC_4830.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405299860334757570" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN7lZ-4xsI/AAAAAAAAFyY/dnafblgukiY/s400/DSC_4830.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN7k30qmbI/AAAAAAAAFyM/kVqp4lCWPQQ/s1600/DSC_4836.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405299851165079986" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN7k30qmbI/AAAAAAAAFyM/kVqp4lCWPQQ/s400/DSC_4836.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405299843643271442" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN7kbzU6RI/AAAAAAAAFyA/VWlXGAOSZ_s/s400/DSC_4847.JPG" /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN7kHYGBXI/AAAAAAAAFx0/pn_Akilpji0/s1600/DSC_4839.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405299838160340338" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN7kHYGBXI/AAAAAAAAFx0/pn_Akilpji0/s400/DSC_4839.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright so a new computer is not coming anytime soon.  And I am getting so far behind it bugs me.  Want to catch up before the holidays!  Pictures are backwards, but at least they are up.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We had trunk or treat at our church again this year.  We did a Disney Princess theme.  Since all the girls needed princess costumes for Disney.  Sawyer was the knight in shining armor! It is a shame I do not have a picture of my costume, Amy (my cousin) and I dressed up together. Because we are so creative that way.  Or goofy, however you want to look at it.  ;-) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The little girls had a fun party at school.  And we enjoyed a hot dog and &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;smore&lt;/span&gt; night while carving pumpkins before &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;halloween&lt;/span&gt;.  (the little girls painted as you can tell)   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-6709190236010427490?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/6709190236010427490/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=6709190236010427490&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/6709190236010427490'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/6709190236010427490'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/11/happy-halloween-2009.html' title='Happy Halloween 2009'/><author><name>Shannon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17746735954722210856</uri><email>laxton@htc.net</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09005716617030292144'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SwN8VnGJNuI/AAAAAAAAFy4/Kd9ZYV1zTz0/s72-c/DSC_4862.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19751590.post-3166094844557801895</id><published>2009-11-12T22:43:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2009-11-12T23:16:05.812-06:00</updated><title type='text'>God Smiles in Kazahkstan</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SvzkIXaCcGI/AAAAAAAAFxs/LM3qT9BQWnE/s1600-h/ScreenHunter_04+Nov.+12+21.22.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 311px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 234px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403444485311066210" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SvzkIXaCcGI/AAAAAAAAFxs/LM3qT9BQWnE/s400/ScreenHunter_04+Nov.+12+21.22.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SvzkIF4ikFI/AAAAAAAAFxk/bDo9S9TquMg/s1600-h/ScreenHunter_06+Nov.+12+21.23.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 311px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 233px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403444480607162450" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SvzkIF4ikFI/AAAAAAAAFxk/bDo9S9TquMg/s400/ScreenHunter_06+Nov.+12+21.23.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Still no new computer, but I did figure out how to do pictures on Marks so I had to share.

My only one year old laptop that I love.  ;-(  Thankfully Mark was able to save all of my pictures and documents.   I am using his computer in limited doses.

It is annoying.

Coming back from a 2 week vacation is hard work!  Not to mention that we got back and Mark left for out of town AGAIN.  We have Judgement House at church and we enjoy working that.  And then there are the clothes.  If you have multiple children, you know what I am saying.   It is a job for sure to switch out summer for winter.   Not to mention for some reason I need to teach the children so we are not going to school till August!   We are all still trying to get back in the groove. Slowly but surely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The beach was wonderful!  I am so thankful we added that on to Disney.  It was a perfect ending.  All the kids enjoyed it.  Was not sure how &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Mavery&lt;/span&gt; would do but she loved it.  She has come so far when it comes to water.  She is a little more hesitant than my others (which if you know my others they are all part fish so most people are more hesitant than they are!) but really does like to be in the water now.   Ft Walton is a beautiful area.   We hope to return.  We ate at some fun places.  No shopping if you can believe that!  We did exactly what we set out to do and that was RELAX.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will add more pictures just as soon as I find my camera cord.  ;-)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-3996363743531603096?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/3996363743531603096/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=3996363743531603096&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/3996363743531603096'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/3996363743531603096'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/10/beach.html' title='Beach!'/><author><name>Shannon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17746735954722210856</uri><email>laxton@htc.net</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09005716617030292144'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/St_TbAQl1OI/AAAAAAAAFw8/adJ6Tda-9QM/s72-c/249.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19751590.post-2634885569919541354</id><published>2009-10-13T23:21:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-10-13T23:26:00.188-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Mavery 1 year later!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/StVSE5Dt5cI/AAAAAAAAFwY/9GZ9DyqZIOM/s1600-h/Mavery1year.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 368px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/StVSE5Dt5cI/AAAAAAAAFwY/9GZ9DyqZIOM/s400/Mavery1year.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392306372835403202" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I have much I want to say and share as we look back at this year together with Mavery but for now I will just leave this picture.

We are so excited for them. Some really "neat" things. Their daughter Eden Grace is a heart baby. She is also from the same province as &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Mavery&lt;/span&gt;. They are staying at the same hotel we were at ONE YEAR AGO THIS WEEK. I just love that. I also love the fact that Eden walked in and wrapped her arms around her mama when she met her, don't the pictures just melt your heart?? It has been a long and winding road for our friends on this journey to find their daughter. But now there they are, here she is! God has answered their prayers in the ways only He can. If you get a chance, stop by their blog and read the post from Edens daddy, so so sweet. &lt;a href="http://www.ourgardenofeden.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://www.ourgardenofeden.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt; I love watching families formed by His very hand!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/StM6KHdXstI/AAAAAAAAFvY/Lsf3pR7Exdg/s1600-h/Eden"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-4781159963339682297?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/4781159963339682297/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=4781159963339682297&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/4781159963339682297'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/4781159963339682297'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/10/news-from-china.html' title='News From China!!'/><author><name>Shannon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17746735954722210856</uri><email>laxton@htc.net</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09005716617030292144'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/StPMI2WBeEI/AAAAAAAAFvo/cYdKKBHa1XM/s72-c/EdenSheila.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19751590.post-741445559296840740</id><published>2009-10-11T23:21:00.004-05:00</published><updated>2009-10-11T23:35:49.714-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Saturday-La Celliar &amp;

I was sick, REALLY sick. I do not know if it was stomach flu, dehydration?, food &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;poisoning&lt;/span&gt;? Whatever it was, it was not good. And all night as I was so sick, I kept thinking, I am going to miss La &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Celliar&lt;/span&gt; tomorrow!!! It was the place I could not wait for, the place I was so thankful to snag a reservation for. The Canadian Steak place in Epcot. By morning, I knew I would not be eating steak, but got up to try to at least go along so the rest of the family could enjoy it. Originally we were supposed to check out on Saturday, but then had added an extra night on. We went to the front desk to check and they had checked us out of this room, moving us to another for the night. Uh, No. That is not going to happen with 5 kids, a weeks worth of stuff, and me SICK! They say there is no option, they had a reunion taking over our building. So, we decided we were going to pack up and head to the beach. Thankfully my parents stepped in and helped us and we did manage to pack up and load up, plus get everyone dressed and out the door in under an hour. That has to be a record. We headed over to Epcot for our lunch. Canada is a LONG way from the entrance of Epcot. And it was hot. And I was MISERABLE. Praying the whole way that I would not puke in front of everyone. Yeah, it was bad. Everyone else enjoyed a yummy steak lunch, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;wahhhh&lt;/span&gt; ,followed by some fun desserts. The kids enjoyed our waitress and her moose call. Was a neat place and I hope someday to get back and enjoy a steak there! We had planned to spend the day at Epcot as I had not got to walk the countries, my favorite part. But obviously that was not going to happen. We left after lunch to begin our LONG drive to the beach.  In our van that the air had quit working.  Not a good way to end Disney for sure.  But at least we were heading to the beach and not heading home yet! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-741445559296840740?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/741445559296840740/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=741445559296840740&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/741445559296840740'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/741445559296840740'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/10/saturday-la-celliar-packing-up.html' title='Saturday-La Celliar &amp;

Since we were on free dining, we opted to do this. And it was more ME, something I had always wanted to do. It took 2 of our dining credits, and I do not think the boys of our group that it was worth it. I would probably not choose it again, however it is worth it to go once. In my opinion that is. Dining in a castle? FUN! We spent the rest of the day at Magic Kingdom. Had a taste of Dole Whip there finally, YUM!Then the evening we went over to Downtown Disney. Along with the entire city of Orlando.   We are convinced that Orlando is NOT feeling a recession AT ALL.  This is supposed to be off season, I would sure hate to see peak season! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-5904536200675945754?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/5904536200675945754/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=5904536200675945754&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/5904536200675945754'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/5904536200675945754'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/10/breakfast-at-castle-friday.html' title='Breakfast at the Castle-Friday'/><author><name>Shannon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17746735954722210856</uri><email>laxton@htc.net</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09005716617030292144'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/StKotUJMhLI/AAAAAAAAFt4/0ZGoDhdR1lE/s72-c/136.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19751590.post-3403479455574317039</id><published>2009-10-11T21:37:00.005-05:00</published><updated>2009-10-11T22:03:12.005-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Animal Kingdom Thursday 10/1</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/StKaD2PVVUI/AAAAAAAAFrg/TyZlFdESxuo/s1600-h/073.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391541094806017346" style="DISPLAY: block;

We were met by Donald Duck and then led to our table. This was one of my favorite meals overall as far as the food went. Really yummy, and the way it was set up was not so crowded. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The big kids favorite ride was Mt Everest, such a fun roller coaster! I think we managed to ride that one about 5 times before the day was over.   &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Malaine&lt;/span&gt; did ride it.  Once.

We spent the day at Animal Kingdom, which if you know &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Makenna&lt;/span&gt;, you know that is appropriate since she loves animals. We started our morning with breakfast at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Tusker&lt;/span&gt; House with Donald Duck. Her request had been lunch at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;LaCelliar&lt;/span&gt; in Epcot, but beggars can't be choosers and we had to take what we could get!   We called it a day early per her choice and spent the evening swimming at the hotel.  Take the kids to Disney, they still prefer a pool!! ;-) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;TWELVE.  Wow.  That is kind of hard to swallow. My oldest is now officially just one year away from being a, GASP, teenager! However for now I am thankful that she still enjoys getting dolls for her birthday, is an amazing helpful big sister, and is one of the most creative people I know.  Happy 12&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; birthday &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Makenna&lt;/span&gt; Kaylee, we love you! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-6035430831192702503?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/6035430831192702503/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=6035430831192702503&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/6035430831192702503'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/6035430831192702503'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/10/makenna-turns-12-october-1st.html' title='Makenna turns 12!!

Saturday we were to have lunch at La &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Celliar&lt;/span&gt;, a steak house in Epcot, the Canada area. One of the MAIN places on my list of places to eat that I could not wait for.  Thursday evening we went to Downtown Disney&amp;amp; all day I felt not that great.  Well either I had stomach flu or dehydration, and spent the night sick, and miserable.  I knew I was not going to be enjoying steak for sure.  Saturday morning while I was trying to get the kids ready to go, Mark had to go check on our reservation.  We had added Saturday night on late, so they wanted us to check out and back in, no big deal.  Till he got down there and they said we had to change rooms.  He was furious, but there was nothing they could do.  Our whole building was booked for a family reunion.  So, we decided we were just leaving for the beach a day early.  We packed up our room in less than an hour, which is a miracle if you could had seen our room!  Still made the reservations for La &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Celliar&lt;/span&gt; where everyone enjoyed a scrumptious steak dinner.  ;-(  I did manage a few bites and it was DELICIOUS.  I am still bummed about it. Then we drove to the beach, a short SEVEN hours away.  With 5 overtired children and me feeling horrible.  Fun times I tell you.&lt;br /&gt;But now we are at the beach.  &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Ahhh&lt;/span&gt;, I love the beach.  Our condo is beautiful.  It is called Azure and is on Ft Walton.  4 bedrooms, the pool just steps out the door, the sand just a few more steps, gorgeous view of the ocean, heaven. (though our house on St George makes anything hard to measure up, that was perfect!) Now if only it would stop RAINING.  Sigh.. We did get a few hours in today and the kids all loved it.  Even the little girls had such a great time!  We are looking forward to a few days here to just relax and rest up before we return.  Sounds like we have missed fall at home and are moving right into cold.  I am betting I am going to regret that I never pulled the kids winter clothes out before I left! Isn't there an outlet mall here in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Destin&lt;/span&gt;?  Maybe I can just stock up here.  ;-)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-7953989041018261542?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/7953989041018261542/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=7953989041018261542&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/7953989041018261542'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/7953989041018261542'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/10/update-from-beach.html' title='Update from the Beach'/><author><name>Shannon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17746735954722210856</uri><email>laxton@htc.net</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09005716617030292144'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19751590.post-4526177165587489478</id><published>2009-09-30T20:55:00.007-05:00</published><updated>2009-09-30T21:11:34.854-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Wednesday-Princess &amp;

my dad took the older 2 kids to Universal Studios today, which they LOVED! My mom &amp;amp; I took the 3 little girls to have breakfast with the princess in Norway/Epcot. Sage, has been showing her spicy side so I was a little worried how the day might go. But overall we survived! We found Stitch as soon as we entered the park and Sage was SO excited about that! Along with Daisy Duck, which is one of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Malaines&lt;/span&gt; favorites. When we walked in we were greeted by Belle. Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White and Ariel all came around to our table. My favorite was when Belle left her spot by our table (the picture taking area) and anytime a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;character&lt;/span&gt; leaves I tell the girls it is probably so they can go potty. So Belle comes back to her spot and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Mavery&lt;/span&gt; yells, "Hey Belle, did you go potty?" Belle had a good giggle over that one. We also got to see &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Mulan&lt;/span&gt; who spent so much time playing with my girls and actually acting excited to have them with her! It was very sweet. My pictures are terrible and hopefully my moms will be better. Also get to have breakfast with the princess again in the castle on Friday!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We met up with friends after that and were so excited to see Jen &amp;amp; Becca, along with Evie and family again. I will have to go back and do a post on them soon, it was a blessing to be together for sure. (Sage's travel group, and 2 of her room mates from China!) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;**Some have asked, my mom made all of the girls clothes, she is amazing!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;**Weather was AWESOME today, just perfect.  Actually cool in the morning and evening.  Hope we get this the rest of the week! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-4526177165587489478?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/4526177165587489478/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=4526177165587489478&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/4526177165587489478'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/4526177165587489478'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/09/wednesday-princess-friends.html' title='Wednesday-Princess &amp;

It is melting hot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;If you are using Disney Transportation, allow well over an hour to get to where you need to be.   And be ready to have some patience,  you will need it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;New Toy Story ride is really fun, all the kids loved it. I am not sure it is fun enough to make the fast passes run out, or would I be willing to wait in an hour line for it, but it was good. (I refuse to wait in ANY line over 15 minutes with Mavery and I think whomever created the fast pass should be filthy rich)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Pizza Planet for lunch was a hit with the kids, but not with us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Malaine rode Tower of Terror and did not like it AT ALL! I love it, my very favorite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;We had dinner at Whispering Canyon Cafe at Fort Wilderness Lodge. We had a hard time figuring out how to get there, which resulted in our own private bus ride.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Thought the food was great, kids loved the stick horse races, the tons of bottles of kethcup on our table (you asked for ketchup everyone starts bringing it over) but took almost 3 hours to eat there. That is a LONG time with littles! &lt;/li&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;li&gt;Mavery has us guessing on if she is staying potty trained or not. And that is all I will say about that.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Kids are REALLY into the pin trading.  We had never done this before, but after hearing from friends and reading lots about it before we went, I am glad I got them pins before coming.  Even Sage &amp;amp; Mavery are having tons of fun with it. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Makenna did most of the window decorating, I need to take more pictures after she added some marker to it.  Very fun! &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sawyer bought a little stuffed Stitch and so he is Sage's new favorite sibling because she loves it! We are now trying to find another, since she sneaks it in her bed and sleeps on it so Sawyer can't have it! &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19751590-393954181969694568?l=herewegrowagain.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/feeds/393954181969694568/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19751590&amp;postID=393954181969694568&amp;isPopup=true' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/393954181969694568'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19751590/posts/default/393954181969694568'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://herewegrowagain.blogspot.com/2009/09/monday-hollywood-studios.html' title='Monday-Hollywood Studios'/><author><name>Shannon</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17746735954722210856</uri><email>laxton@htc.net</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09005716617030292144'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oTw5tcsqfY8/SsLDmsOiADI/AAAAAAAAFlw/72NNo6-LEdo/s72-c/Disney+143.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>5</thr:total></entry></feed>
