It's amazing how much you forget about the newborn stage... Especially when you have a very independent 4 year old! She was bigger than Ellie at 7 lbs 11 oz but a little shorter... 19 3/4 in.

It's hard to find true friends that your entire family loves - we feel like we've known them forever. I haven't let my mind or heart go there just yet... The best part has been our last 2 years of being neighbors. So nice to walk down the street to be at our BFFs house. We know we won't lose touch and we will be burning up 75 with trips back and forth, but I hate they want be right here. <br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-VCqA_tfuhiA/U9TOKGK5DYI/AAAAAAAAGKw/SSAIR9YfokA/s640/blogger-image-989321744.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-VCqA_tfuhiA/U9TOKGK5DYI/AAAAAAAAGKw/SSAIR9YfokA/s640/blogger-image-989321744.jpg"></a></div></div>Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03498777396209640464noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8821879794918161283.post-68303147018363252962014-07-20T09:01:00.001-04:002014-07-20T10:03:40.320-04:00Trying to keep up before our lives turn upside down!We squeezed in a quick weekend to Birmingham last weekend to spend some time with my sweet Dad. He is battling cancer for the 2nd time (both times when I have been pregnant)... He's been a trooper but is in the middle of treatments and they are taking their toll on him.... He's having an extremely hard time eating and swallowing due to the radiation. Praying hard we can continue to fight this battle... And for my amazing mom as she's with him every step of the way.

It's been busy, but fun and relaxing at the same time. We decided to only have Ellie in school 2 days a week this summer. It's been a great schedule for everyone as the orher days are filled with play dates, camps, and lots of pool time!

Ellie is beyond ready and sits in Hazel's room all the time. We are set for July 29th but we will see if she has other plans like her big sister. We see a specialist one more time on Monday... As of this week, I'm measuring 2 weeks ahead of schedule! That's kind of scary to me...

I can't believe she is 10 years old. She was my wedding present from Jay and has been perfect for our family. She is the sweetest lab out there and very gentle with all kids - especially Ellie. She may drive us crazy with her shedding of white hair but we are thankful for the 10 years she's been with us. I hope Hazel is just as happy to hang out with her as Ellie is...

We stayed on the beach for most of the day and Ellie could swim in the ocean like it was the pool... Crystal clear water and no seaweed or jellyfish! It was so peaceful with the 3 of us (plus Sophie). We are hoping to go back the end of June if my doctor gives me the ok... My blood pressure has been really low and sleep just isn't happening.

Praying it makes it a few more weeks, but we are struggling since last summer when it went for a swim!
We had a wonderful Easter with friends...

We spent a few days in Springville visiting friends and family - makes me wish we lived closer every time we visit. Ellie LOVES being with her cousins. It was nice to get away for a few days! She was able to dress herself in the first picture for Wacky Wednesday at school... Her creations crack us up. She loves the weekends because she knows she can choose whatever she wants to wear which usually includes high heels, lots of jewelry, a tutu, crazy socks, a headband, etc...

We wrapped up the soccer season - not her favorite sport - but we played with so many great friends! We are wrapping up the school year and celebrated with "indoor" field day. And the first picture is her dressing herself again one weekend... Lord - help me when she starts deciding what to wear during the week :)

Last weekend we had 3 birthday parties back to back to back and then a baby shower for a sweet friend ON TOP OF Mother's Day and Jay being gone all weekend... This one was tired, but we survived :)

And we celebrated Mother's Day... We are so thankful for the "Mother's" in our lives. I am truly blessed with one of the best ones out there. She is the most patient, loving, and kind woman I know. Always going above and beyond to take care of everyone before herself. She has taught me so much in parenting Ellie and soon to be another one. She has shown me how to be a "working Mother" which I love by balancing family and work and never seeming stressed. I was also lucky to have one of the best Mother-in-Laws. Even though she is no longer with us, I continue to learn from her. She loved her family more than anything and showed me how important being with your family truly is... She loved every minute with her children and grandchildren. A true example of the best wife, mother, and MeMe out there. We miss her so much, but know she continues to watch over us! If that isn't enough, Jay and I were recently blessed with a "new" mother - Tappy! Tappy loves us like we are her own. We look forward to her early retirement in a few weeks, especially when baby sister arrives in July!

Looking forward to some rest and relaxation over the next few days... We are 11 weeks out from meeting baby sister and haven't done much to prepare.

I had doubts about doing this trip because I figured it wouldn't be the best bang for our buck. Ellie has been asking to go for over a year now (mainly from hearing from friends at school) and we finally made the decision that we'd give it to her for Christmas. She even was in on "saving" for Disney by finding spare change and saving her birthday money. She had a calendar that she marked down every day... As the week neared, I happen to check the weather just make sure I was packing correctly for Orlando weather. It showed "cold" temperatures in Atlanta for the day we were leaving, but no precipitation. I continued to check daily (or multiple times a day) as we were getting closer and the talks of "major winter weather" was popping up. Jay had a conference in Orlando (Universal Studios) 2 days prior to our trip that he'd be driving for so we decided to forgo our flights (swallow $400+) and drive with him. This ended up being the smartest decision as our flights were canceled (thank you Delta for our money back) and we got an extra day at Disney and free trip to Savannah after Disney! It all worked out for an extra long vacation!</div><div><br></div><div><b>Day 1 - Magic Kingdom</b> </div><div>We were told by several "Disney-goers" to allow 2 days at MK. I am so glad we did. We were able to knock a lot of stuff out the first day and enjoyed small crowds with beautiful weather! First ride of the day was Buzz Lightyear - which we ended up doing twice. We tried to do Haunted Mansion but were escorted out due to EMT's responding to call on the "ride". Not sure what was going on but we decided we wouldn't return for that one! We also knocked out Monster's Laugh Floor and the Stitch ride (Ellie was not a fan). We did Story Time with Belle (definitely worth doing if you have a girl), Ariel's Grotto, Winnie the Pooh, the Carrousel, Mickey's PhilharMagic Show, and Princess Fairytale Hall where we met Rapunzel and Snow White. We'd be returning later in the week with our original plans for Peter Pan, Dumbo, Small World, Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique (not my favorite) and others. We went into this day with "no plans" and it was actually one of our best days!

<b>Day 2 - Hollywood Studios</b> </div><div>We started out with breakfast with our cousins at Hollywood and Vine. This is where they can meet Disney Junior friends and was one of my favorite meals. We had the Deluxe Dining Plan (3 meals and 2 snacks per day) so we had MORE than enough food. I was pleasantly surprised by the food - it was really good. Great portion sizes, good variety, but very unhealthy. I liked the ability of having "sit down" meals to get out of the chaos each meal, but we could have survived on a smaller plan too...
We had lunch at the Sci-Fi Drive-In and it was okay... I could have definitely missed this lunch. It was a cool atmosphere but didn't hold Ellie's attention. You eat in cars and watch a movie (similar to a drive-in). We wouldn't do this one again.
We did Toy Story (another favorite for Ellie), watched a Disney Junior Live show, watched a live Beauty and the Beast, and the Voyage of Little Mermaid (not a favorite). Wish we had time for the Muppets 3-D but we opted to head back to the hotel for a nap before dinner at Chef Mickey's that evening. Naps were needed a couple of days, especially when we had late dinners.

Dinner at Chef Mickey's - definitely one that we'd do again! Great meal and the main Disney characters. Service was great! They make sure every character gets around to your table.

<b>Day 3 - Epcot</b> </div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">We started with breakfast at Ohana's and this was Jay's favorite meal. Ellie loves the movie Lilo and Stitch so we knew this was a must on the trip. We left Ohana for a day at Epcot. I was told by "Disney-goers" that Epcot was boring and pointless for our trip, but I wanted to check it out. We LOVED it! I wish we would have spent more time there, but headed back for the Wonderland Tea Party with Alice in Wonderland (waste of time and money - don't do it). At Epcot, we enjoyed Soarin', Nemo and Friends, and Journey into Imagination (another waste of time). We made it through a few countries but I wish we would have do all of them. We had lunch in Norway at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall (Ellie's favorite) with Belle, Cinderella, Ariel, and other princesses. Glad we made this reservation super early as this one fills up fast! The food was great and of course meeting the princesses was a highlight for Ellie.
I don't have pictures (yet) from Alice in Wonderland's Tea Party because Ellie participated by herself and you have "purchase" those pictures... again waste of time and $$$ in my opinion. We ended the night with dinner at Chip 'n Dale's Harvest Feast at Garden Grille. This was just okay for me... Jay liked it a lot, but I was kind-of burned out on heavy food at this point. I enjoyed the mashed potatoes and chopped salad :) We stuck around for fireworks at Epcot which were amazing! Again, next time, we will spend more time at Epcot for the countries.</span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RpBN7JEGGzs/Uwtb7QKEMCI/AAAAAAAAFe4/3HGdSkcxDSo/s1600/IMG_3495.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RpBN7JEGGzs/Uwtb7QKEMCI/AAAAAAAAFe4/3HGdSkcxDSo/s320/IMG_3495.JPG"></a></div>

<b>Day 4 - Magic Kingdom </b></div><div>
We were back at Magic Kingdom for our fourth day. We thought we'd made a mistake by booking this day in MK because it was Saturday and a holiday weekend. We arrived early for our breakfast with Cinderella and no one was in the park. It was strange. We were able to ride Peter Pan and Small World - twice without our fast passes because there were no lines. We had breakfast at Cinderella's castle (which was good - but I think a little over done), met up with our cousins for Swiss Family Treehouse, Magic Carpets, Pirates of the Caribbean, met Jasmine and Tiana, rode Dumbo and the train around MK. We had the BEST lunch at The Plaza - hands down one of our favorite meals. That afternoon Ellie had an appointment at Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. I am not a huge fan of this place. I know it's a "must do" with girls and Ellie did love it, but I hated the whole hair and make-up thing... I wanted them to just put was pixie dust (glitter) in her hair, paint her nails, and call it a day - BUT it's much more than that! They let the "princesses" pick their hairstyle which involves A LOT of gel (especially when your daughter's hair is short), hairspray, bobby pins, etc... Ellie really did love it and we did the lowest price package... We brought our own dress instead of purchasing the "real" deal for the cheap price of $250! This was a highlight for her as she comes home everyday to find her "make-up" from the boutique. We knocked out Buzz the Lightyear ride again while waiting for our dinner reservations at The Crystal Palace. This was dinner with Winnie the Pooh and friends. It was okay and probably would have been really good if we hadn't had so much to eat by this point. Service wasn't great here, but we can check it off the list!

<b>Day 5 - Animal Kingdom</b> </div><div>Jay's favorite park - This was a great park and was very laid back... It was crowded but I felt like must moved at a slower pace. We LOVED the Kilimanjaro Safari and were able to see lots of animals close up during our ride. We took the Wilderness Train to Rafiki's Planet Watch to see the petting zoo animals and visit with Chip 'n Dale. We also stuck around for the Animal Kingdom parade and had front row seats... Ellie loved this parade because a lot of the characters walked up to give high fives. We had lunch at Tusker House with Donald and Daisy. We met Baloo from Jungle Book (didn't know who he was), met Pocahontas, tried to do Bug's Life (Ellie had to leave due to screaming in the middle of the show when the bug "spits" at you). I thought it was great, but too much for her. We didn't make it to Nemo show due to early dinner reservations. Thanks to our fabulous Disney planner, we booked dinner that evening for just of the two of us at Jiko (Animal Kindgom Lodge). Ellie enjoyed some downtime at Simba's Cubhouse at Animal Kindgom Lodge (babysitters on Disney property). We will definitely take advantage of this again! THE BEST DINNER I have had in a long time. We also had drinks before dinner (or Jay did) and walked though this awesome resort. We'd love to stay there in the future. The same animals on the safari live outside the guestrooms. Your balcony opens up into their world and it's amazing. It's pretty $$$ so, we may stick with just dinner there!

So, that's it! Truly an amazing vacation for all of us. We went in knowing Ellie was love it, but we loved it just as much. I now know why so many families go back year after year when their kids are this age. We loved our resort - Port Orleans Riverside and would definitely recommend others there and stay there again. We spent the extra $$$ for a Royal Princess room and Ellie loved it. We honestly didn't spend more than 8-9 hours in our room each day (sleeping) so I can see why others spend less $$$ in this area of a trip. There were plenty of things to do at our resort. We booked a carriage ridge the last night around our resort and loved it. The food in the quick-service was good and counted as snacks on our meal plan. The staff there were so nice and very helpful. We didn't mind the bus rides to the parks - average 15-20 minutes to the parks. The buses were always on time to the parks and picking up at the end of the day. Glad I can check Disney off Ellie's bucket list for now... I know we'll be going back - probably sooner rather than later! If you are thinking about going, my advice - GO!

Tuesday morning around 10 am the snow was falling fast and sticking to the roads. I know it was a matter of time before the call came from MP that school would be closing. They called at 11:30 for pick up at 12:30... I decided to head out early to get ahead of carpool. I am SO glad I did bc a friend was 30 minutes behind me and she was stuck in her car with her kids for 4 hours... Complete chaos and it all happened so fast. Jays 2 hour commute home didn't seem so bad after hearing for 10+hour commutes, or those who slept in their cars, or those who weren't able to get to their kids... So scary but proud of all the amazing stories I keep hearing from Good Samaritans. <br></i><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-k9FF5P_pcco/UupZBZfTJuI/AAAAAAAAFY0/BSAK04q8M8w/s640/blogger-image--627184523.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><i><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-k9FF5P_pcco/UupZBZfTJuI/AAAAAAAAFY0/BSAK04q8M8w/s640/blogger-image--627184523.jpg"></i></a></div><i>Thankful our BFFs live in our neighborhood so we could enjoy the chaos together!<br></i><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-5pPlRPXkWz0/UupZFyK4soI/AAAAAAAAFZU/Pe7ZkW9UaC8/s640/blogger-image--594439208.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><i><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-5pPlRPXkWz0/UupZFyK4soI/AAAAAAAAFZU/Pe7ZkW9UaC8/s640/blogger-image--594439208.jpg"></i></a></div><i>Big news from the Henderson house...

We started out with my family in Springville this year... My dad loves to cook and clean, so we do very little while we are in town - almost like being on vacation! Your clothes are washed, folded, and out away before you ever know you have dirty clothes! Bed is always made, and the food is always divine :) he loves taking care of others! We shopped some, rested a lot, and celebrated Christmas with our family! Ellie loves all of her cousins but especially Millie who is 6 months older and into everything Ellie is these days! They could play for hours.... All the grandkids were spoiled with gifts from Santa and MiMi and Pop.<div><br></div><div>We head south tomorrow to Andalusia to celebrate with Jays family which will be full of fun, food, and family time!</div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-56jZT_bHfwo/UrovE3tMrpI/AAAAAAAAFR4/LAqgIeeMT3Y/s640/blogger-image-988492377.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

BLOG!
It's not like I don't check my "friends" blogs every day, but for some reason I sit around and let mine back up... Then we end up with a picture overload. It's not like there hasn't been anything going on to talk about on here, it's just escaping long enough to get it written out and the pictures uploaded. I also think with Instagram and FB, it makes posting pictures and life blurbs a little easier these days.
I didn't even go back to see the last pictures I posted, so hopefully I am not repeating myself here.
I wish I was quick enough to start keeping track of "Ellie-Sayings" because we crack up everyday over something she says or repeats in the wrong context. I didn't get when others posted their kids sayings on here, but now I do! I guess it's only funny to the parents (and grandparents). She is really big right now on "wanting to be a grown up" meaning she wants to turn 5 (because you are a grown up then). She told me the other day that when she "grows up" she will be able to take out the trash, do laundry, cut paper with scissors, and hold babies standing up. Wow! Life as a grown up is hard work!
Ellie and Jay making s'mores - one of their favorite things to do... Ellie doesn't do "crackers" so it is usually very messy especially after your house was cleaned earlier in the day :) She also just got a haircut - notice the shortness in picture 1. I didn't want it "stacked" but somehow the Famous Hair lady took that as do whatever you want... She likes it and thinks she looks like her friend at school now.

We finally converted Ellie's toddler bed to her "big girl" bed, but we are missing A LOT of bolts so for now, it's a mattress and box spring on the floor - WOW - mattresses are expensive. Did't think about having to get a "good mattress" for her. Thought I could run to Wal-Mart, Target, or Babies R Us for this purchase... No, No, No - not with this Daddy. Major research on "best mattresses for kids and off to a "real" mattress store for this child. She keeps asking where the end of her bed is... meaning the foot board. It's coming... just might be another year! P.S. I compromised on her bedding choice for now... I'm not overly a fan of character-themed bedrooms... We are settling on this beauty until we order her bedding. Probably also another year ... Until then, I will appreciate her choice :)<br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-y6LCI9tHM1E/UpRi_92T4TI/AAAAAAAAFEo/xIHiriG6_AI/s640/blogger-image-1221764082.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-y6LCI9tHM1E/UpRi_92T4TI/AAAAAAAAFEo/xIHiriG6_AI/s640/blogger-image-1221764082.jpg"></a></div>
We are going to DISNEY WORLD - can't believe I typed this... Makes it real now (I can still back out until December 30). We are surprising Ellie for Christmas with a trip to Disney World in February. She has been asking for a year now, and we've told her it cost a lot of $$$ she has to save her money. She took us seriously and puts every penny she finds in her piggy bank. She also got some $$$ for her birthday. The piggy bank was full, so off to the bank we went for Ellie's first deposit for her Disney trip. She has no idea it's coming... Trying to figure out how to surprise her on Christmas day with this and hope it's not a let down that we aren't going now and there isn't much from Santa :/

Family Pictures - Thank you Blaire again for capturing some pics for us. We typically do this once a year around Ellie's birthday which usually works out for our Christmas card. LOVE these (especially compared to last year's pics b/c I am 40 pounds lighter --- thank you WW)... Blaire is amazing, and patient! She took a lot in our 30 minutes together and turned them around to me the NEXT day. So happy to call her my friend who is always available to fit our crazy schedule. Our pictures didn't include Sophie this year, but did include Ellie's beloved Peter-dog. This child takes Peter-dog everywhere. He was a gift from our friends, Joel and Molly, and Ellie named him after their dog - Peter. Peter makes bed/nap time easier, any bump/bruise better, and timeouts a little less lonely...

We were able to love on my sweet niece and nephew some last weekend. Cannot believe they are 12 weeks old. They are super-sweet, and really laid-back babies. I admire my brother and SIL because they rarely seem stressed. They are on a great schedule of finally sleeping 9-10 hours at night and she is nursing BOTH babies. Can't wait to love on them some more during the holidays. Ellie is obsessed with them.

Thanksgiving Feast at Mount Paran... Again, we LOVE Ellie's schools (in case you didn't know that by now). So thankful this worked out for us this year. In love with the teachers, parents, new friends, curriculum, etc... Her punishment/threats at home usually are "you won't be able to go to school if..." Hope this continues for many, many years. The 3-year-old classes were pilgrims and Indians, and had a feast after a few songs. They had a full, Thanksgiving spread that day that most 3-year-old's didn't touch. Mine cried to "go home" with me after the program, and I was the sucker that went along with it. I have to remember that one day, she will not want to be near me...

Auburn/UGA - Wow - can we say that this game almost caused me to have a heart attack (as it did for every other AU Fan). We LOVED being in Auburn with family and friends and celebrating a much needed AU/UGA victory. So thankful my ADPi pledge class hosted a reunion tailgate. Great seeing everyone and catching up where we left off at Girls Weekend earlier this year... Ready to be with these girls in January :-) Ellie made it through a day of tailgating and the game... She was OUT by the time we made it home. She will not be at the AU/AL game as this one can't be any bigger than it was in 2010! Prayers (yes, for football).

A few randoms - I am slowly, but surely buying Ellie non-smocked/baby-ish clothes. This is hard for me... I am keeping holidays and church, but everyday/school is moving into more big girl clothes. We were introduced to Matilda Jane. We love it/hate it. Holy bank account... I love that it can mix and match, but they are very proud of their lines... I hope I was thrifty enough buying up a few sizes to wear as dresses now, shirts later. We'll see if this works out. I have heard that it re-sales great, but who are we kidding? I haven't sold a single piece of Ellie's clothes. Not sure what my plans are with all these boxes full of her clothes... We love having an Auburn couple close to us here with a little girl Ellie's age. They play great together and it makes fall, football Saturdays much more enjoyable for everyone! We've also filled our Saturdays with birthday parties and Mount Paran events.

Birthday Week - We celebrated this year with a Pancake and Pajama Party. It turned out great - weather, food, and friends! We did a morning party - which I loved because my entire house slept for 4 hours that afternoon :-) It was in advance of any football kick-offs which is what you plan around in the south. Ellie loves having friends over to her house. They played and ate pancakes and donuts. Thanks to my Dad and Jay for manning the griddles :) She was also Star Student at MP the week of her birthday. This means she had a "mystery reader" come everyday to surprise the class with a book and a treat. It was a lot of fun, and we were lucky to have both sets of grandparents join in on the fun. Both mornings they surprised her, they had actually spent the night the night before w/o her knowing... She was in shock both times they arrived :) Pure joy and happiness for all.

Halloween with Friends - Since Ellie's birthday falls on Halloween, she is into using "Trick or Treat and It's my Birthday" to get a little more candy out of the neighbors... We did our usual get together with neighborhood friends and were happy to have my parents in town to help with the festivities :) This year Ellie wanted to be a princess - surprise, surprise, and picked the new Disney Junior princess - Sofia the First.

School Picture - not a huge fan, but it will do... This was the morning after she'd been sick for a week and then I caught something that morning. I literally threw a dress on her, didn't bathe her, and put a bow in. Sent her to school by Jay only to realize around noon that it was Picture Day...

The rest of random pictures with friends (and one of daddy/daughter date night which happens twice a week).

Wow - hope that catches everyone (or the few) that still read this... I promise (shouldn't write that) to blog about Thanksgiving. Very special time for us as 2 years ago we lost our precious Melissa / MeMe. Some days it seems like yesterday and other days I feel like it's been so much longer... I honestly think about her every day and usually when I am running. That is my time to escape for a little bit and think, pray, talk. I find myself still wanting to call her to tell her "Ellie" stories, or ask for advice on some recipe. It's still hard, but I have to remind myself that our life here is not what's important. She is celebrating, and happy, and at peace in Heaven. My goal and promise was to keep her with us, especially for Ellie. Ellie constantly talks about her "MeMe in Heaven" and colors her pictures, asks when she is coming back, if she is playing with Jesus (and her fish Ariel)! Thanksgiving is a time of family, fun, fellowship, and football, but also a time of sadness for us. I know she is with us and celebrates each milestone we reach as a family, but some days I do wish she was here with us... Love you Melissa!<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PwMpWhu1HAY/UpR3ZOWqZMI/AAAAAAAAFFM/lowLQ3ov2K4/s1600/photo+(19).JPG" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-PwMpWhu1HAY/UpR3ZOWqZMI/AAAAAAAAFFM/lowLQ3ov2K4/s320/photo+(19).JPG"></a>Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03498777396209640464noreply@blogger.com0
