Thanks!

I also thought maybe it was stress/nerves, maybe stressed about school? The drive? I really don't know, I just hope tomorrow she wakes up and eats me out of house and home!

Me too!! Hope your day is a little brighter, we will be thinking of you guys

Wow! Well after this long awful weekend of Alanna not eating, I called the GI Doc Sunday and he said to come in Monday morning first thing. So he examines her and he said she is "empty". I am beginning to think the burping is nerves. She didn't eat breakfast or dinner but snacked on junk all day today. After not eating for a week, I'll let her eat whatever she wants! Even if the burping is nerves, I cannot understand why she doesn't want to eat. I asked GI Dr if we should cancel our trip, he said def. not. He said maybe she'll eat better there. He also gave us a trial of prevacid. So, we finished our last minute shopping today and packed everything up. We have an appointment with him when we get back. My aunt mentioned going to the Children's Hospital in Philly to have Alanna seen by one of their GI specialists. I kind of feel like she's a medical mystery. I am stressed, but the GI doc didn't seem to be too concerned. I just hope her eating continues to pick up like it did today.

To add to the upsetment and stress that we have been dealing with with Alanna, Scott called me on Sat. morning from work and told me that his dad had a heart attack. So he left work and drove 300+ miles to be with his parents. Thankfully the EMTs got there in time and he is OK. Scott got home close to midnight on Sunday and we were up today @ 7 to be @ GIs office. I was so worried about Alanna and stressed about the trip that I only got 3 hours sleep last night.

I am currently trying to check me and my mother in on line, but the site is not working...argh!

Tomorrow's agenda consists of cleaning, laundry, and cleaning the car. Scott's going to pack up the car tomorrow night. We're not leaving until 3-4 on Wed when scott gets out of work, but at least we'll be all ready to go.

So...on Friday we have ressies @ WCC...I think I'll have 2 of these:

I am so, so sorry about still not knowing what's going on with Alanna. And I am SO glad that Scott's dad is okay. I hope you have an extra magical vacation.

I am so happy your doctor told you not to cancel your trip....I have a feeling it's just what you all need

So happy your father-in-law is doing ok....you guys have had a lot on your plate

If I don't chat with you again before you leave, have a safe and happy holiday!!!

Thank you everyone for the well wishes for Alanna and Scott's Dad. Last night Alanna ate almost 8 chicken nuggets and some french fries for dinner!!!! So I was super excited! I hope she gets up and has a good breakfast today. I told her maybe she is burping a lot b/c NOTHING is in her belly and I'd get her an iTunes gift card if she ate a little dinner, so she ate and picked out a few songs. I told her she could pick out more after breakfast today, she is still sleeping. Scott's dad is home and can return to work in a week. He is doing pretty good too.

Today is DEPARTURE DAY !!!! My aunt is probably leaving in a half hour, we won't leave til Scott gets home from work. We loaded up the car last night and Scott filled it up too I also called CBR and asked for Martinique building #26 2nd floor for me and my mom. Of course, they can't promise anything, but its worth a shot!

Let's see, o here's the pictures from CARS Night that I never posted:

The Game:

And here are some things that I did with the works from the creative DISigners..I think all are Milliepies and one may be Rustman (I think thats the name, its the green mickey head)

front of pirate shirt:

back of pirate shirt:

Window decorations, I printed them, laminated them with the self adhesive paper and did a few hole punches to hang them from a suction cup from the window

I routed the way there with mapquest, printed it out, now i have to figure out the way back. Wanted to stay in Hilton HEad, but its so expensive!!! For those prices I could spend another night in DIsney @ the Poly! SO maybe we'll stay in Savannah again, drive over to Hilton HEad for a little (it doesn't seem far at all) and then stop in Virginia Beach and then home (boo for coming home).

So, all I have to do really is make Alanna a playlist on my iPod and do little last minute things. I also downloaded some DIS podcasts for myself.

It was so funny, at Target on Monday we were getting snacks and I said really loud to Scott "They are going to have to roll us out of the car before we even get to WDW" and the lady next to me started laughing and said "I'm doing the same things, shopping for our road trip to WDW." Funny when you meet someone doing the EXACT same thing you are doing.

Alanna is getting a call from Minnie around 11 today, I set it up for free from that Barilla webste, so cute!

HEre's a pic of my nails

And as I was typing this, ALanna got up! So here is ALanna with our last Mickey head countdown! She actually did a dance too, it was all too cute!

So I think thats it from us! We will arrive in WDW on Friday hopefully around 1ish. The first thing I plan on doing, well AFTER I check my room for snakes of course is to sit by that pool @ CBR, then get ready for our dinner @ WCC and a night at MK.
Stay safe folks and I hope you enjoyed reading my first PTR!
