Gingerbread Construction

This evening momma and I crafted this way awesome gingerbread house!  We used marshmallow fluff for the snow, which looked really cool...till it started to run and momma realized it want going to dry.  Regardless though, it looks super cool!



Trapped & Climbing

Yesterday morning I had another check up for my adnoids.  After getting a thumbs up from the doctor, we got on the elevator to go home.  Just seconds after I pushed the button to go back to the first floor, the power went out, the lights turned off, and the elevator stopped.  We were trapped!  I wondered about freaking out, but momma seemed ok with it, so I just held her hand and stayed real close.  We were stuck for about half an hour before the local fireman came to rescue us.  We had to jump out of the elevator about 6 feet.

So after that ordeal we went to lunch at my favorite place before going to school, then afterwards momma took me to the park where I got to climb on this really cool contraption!  Momma must've been feeling bad for my ordeal or something because it was pretty cold and she wasn't wearing a coat!

Gift Ideas

Momma made a pin board for me on Pinterest with things that I would like.  If you need ideas you can check out my pin board by clicking here.  We'll be adding to it over the next little bit, so don't worry.  Also, I am wearing a size 6 (M) now (47lbs 43").  And my shoes should be wide or Mary Jane style (I have thick feet) or adjustable in a size 12.  I like all things frilly, sparkly and otherwise very girly.  I like funky socks a whole bunch.  I am very much into crafts (I do this more than anything else) and Lego type things.  Here are a few things that I have a bit too much of: Play-doh, kitchen toys, dress up and babies...not that I wouldn't like more, but Momma would probably cry. ;)  I also love to cook and play school, I'm a great teacher, and I like to write.  Keep in mind I am very easy to please and like every thing, these are merely suggestions and guidance.

Here's the written out address of my pin board in case you'd like to copy and paste it: http://pinterest.com/wastingtheday/gift-ideas-for-aubrey/

Unbridled joy...crushing dissapointment!



I L.O.V.E.D. riding in the tea cups at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom!  I laughed my butt off!  But when the ride ended, well, lets just say I was a wee bit disappointed!  It was over all too soon...and Momma was too dizzy to try that ride again!

Day 6: Animal Kingdom...again

Because this time we took Daddy with us!  And this time we got to see the Lion King stage production, which was full of acrobats and dancing, I thought that was way cool.  I also finally got to meet Minnie, Donald, and Chip & Dale along with some others.  We rode the safari again, walked another zoo trail which included huge bats!  I watched a crazy 3D bug show, visited a petting farm that had tiny pigs and got free desserts when the eatery tried to poison Daddy with pine nuts!  Just as we were leaving it started to rain and we got all soaked, and it was cold, and our bus was 45 min late!  That was pretty miserable.  But, again, I fell asleep on the bus.  After a sort nap we walked back to Downtown Disney to have dinner at The House of Blues.

Day 5: Hollywood Studios

Today I was very tired, that made it hard for me to have fun.  But the studios were interesting.  I met Ralph & Vanelope from the new movie Wreck It Ralph that I saw last week with my cousins.  I saw a stunt show with lots of fast cars and fire, Beauty and the Beast live on stage, Ariel on stage, The Muppets in 3D and my favorite characters from Mickey's Clubhouse live on stage.  During the parade, Jessie came over and gave me a high five.  Ate a pretzel shaped like Mickey, and watched a crazy water/fire/light show.  I also rode a crazy Star Wars 3D simulation ride, and again fell asleep before ir made it back to the hotel...which happened to be early tonight.





Day 4: Tea Party with Alice and Epcot

Today I got to go to a special tea party with Alice and the Mad Hatter at the Grand Floridian, a real fancy resort.  Momma didn't get to come.  We colored, and played games and had a story and decorated a cupcake and made a craft.  The Mad Hatter's hat was so big!!  In the evening we went to Epcot.  I thought that was kind of boring, just a lot of food and shopping.  We got to watch the fireworks with Daddy, and that was super cool!  There were huge fires shooting from a boat and I was convinced the boat was on fire!  You could feel the heat!  We also rode a Nemo ride and went to a show with Crush the turtle.  We road a boat ride in Mexico that I liked a whole bunch.  Momma and I ate a lot of junk food like snow cones and chocolate covered marshmallows and a pumpkin funnel cake.  I think she was trying to give me energy because I was so tired, it worked! I also got to meet Belle one on one!  We walked up just as she wad leaving and I was so sad because we missed her.  But then she saw me and came over to me and talked to me.  Then she asked me if I could walk her home!!  I was the only one!  I was very special!  She made my day, which us good because I'm real sick.

Day 3: The Magic Kingdom

Momma and I went back to The Magic Kingdom on Wednesday to ride rides and look around more.  We spent most of the day in Fantasyland, where the castle is.  We started out with an appointment at the Bibbiddi Boppity Boutique where I was made up to look like a princess, complete with a wig, make-up, painted nails, glitter...the whole nine yards, all of which i got to take home in a nifty back pack.  My fairy godmother wad the best!  She sang to me, and told stories as she worked.  Then we spent the day riding rides and eating yummies!  Everywhere I went people bowed to me, called me "your highness" and "princess".  I wore my outfit all day!  My favorite ride was a roller coaster called Barnstormer.  We rode it 3 times!!  We also got to be part of an interactive sorry with Belle where I played the part of Mrs. Potts!  That evening we ate dinner at the castle with the princesses and got to sit next to a window, i was thrilled about that!  On or way back to the hotel I met Rapunzel and finally Mickey Mouse!  Then I fell asleep on the bench waiting for the shuttle and Daddy had to come down to the bus to get me.  I was wiped out!









Day 2 (eve): Pirate Pals Firework Voyage

On Tuesday evening we were able to watch the fireworks over the castle from a pirate themed boat cruise!  I loved that!  We all got pirate hankies for our heads, and there was a dessert party before the voyage where we ate cake, ice cream, cotton candy, cocoa, chocolate coins, popsicles and kid crack to freak all the parents out! Then we met Captain Hook and Mr. Shmee!  I was the first one!  Captain Hook tried to take my cotton candy, then he kissed me!  Mr. Shmee showed me his belly!  They were real cool!  On the boat we sang pirate songs and played trivia games before the fireworks!  The fireworks looked spectacular from the boat, but there were a lot of bugs, and that freaked me out!  Afterwards I got a cool pirate hat!  Peter Pan even showed up.  Momma says y'all have to wait for more pictures since they're not on her phone.



Day 2: Animal Kingdom

We spent Tuesday at the Animal kingdom.  Momma says it's like a zoo, on crack.  I don't know what that means though.  The first thing we diss was go on a safari.  We saw giraffes, elephants, long horned cattle, crocs, monkeys and kits of others.  I ate a Samosa fire the first time.  That was real good.  It's like a triangle egg roll with potatoes and peas in it, and cilantro.  It was weird, but I ate it up.  We walked around a lot!  We also saw a theatrical performance of Finding Nemo!  I loved that!  But really I was just so tired that all I really wanted to do was go back to the hotel and swim...we didn't.  But, I was real happy to meet Winnie the Pooh and his friends!





Day 1: Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party

Our first park experience was at The Magic Kingdom in the evening for their Christmas Party.  It was crazy busy at first, but evened out later.  We saw the castle all decked out in Christmas lights, that was extraordinary!  We were able to ride a few rides with out having to stand in line.  The Muffin loved the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, so we rode that twice!  Daddy got wet when a canon ball splashed into the water beside him!  The muffin and momma also got wet that evening as they made the mistake of unwittingly walking in front of a spitting camel.  It was water, but momma got pretty wet.  We saw a parade with all of the characters dressed up for the holidays, the Country Bear Jamboree Show, a Christmas dance in front if the castle, and of course the fireworks, at which point we all shared a turkey leg!  We meet Tiana and Prince Neveene and later Baloo. Princess Merida waved at the muffin! The muffin fell asleep waiting for the boat off the kingdom...poor Daddy had to carry her for a very long time!  We went to bed at 2am.

Tickling the ivory

My cousin got a keyboard for her birthday, so she was showing me how to play it.


I'm having fun!

Tonight is our last night here, we're heading to Disney tomorrow!  But I have been having so much fun with my cousin!  We've been peas and carrots all weekend!


Celebrate good times!

Cake!  This is me and my daddy with momma's brother and my cousins.


Dinner with my cousins

We celebrated one of my cousins birthdays last night at a restaurant that was right on the ocean.  We had a good time and they even sang to her.  I tried daddy's lobster, which was yucky!


Traveling

We are on our way to my uncles house this weekend.  The car ride is so long and boring, but I did pretty good.


Bouncing of the walls!

The Muffin got to enjoy a fun birthday party of one of her class mates at a bounce house.  There isn't anything she loves more than bouncing!
