home, sweet, wonderful home!

having enough of this cold Canadian winter, i packed my boy up and took off to a warmer place, sunny, delightful and home of the most wonderful place in the world (tied with shopping) ...disney
nate was captivated with the plane. having his own seat and a window at that

soon after i settled him into his seat, i explained that the plane's engine will get loud, the plane will speed up and we will take off into the air. nate was quiet, then said "mommy, yaya push button to make plane fly" and he did. and the plane flew with the push of his button
we chose only 2 parks this trip. animal kingdom was first. nate enjoyed the ride through the jungle, here is is singing "whooo hooo hooo, i wanna be like you, who ho"
nate adores all things animals and was waken with seeing them in real life
off to the dino ride with nana, poppy and quinn. check out that teeny, tiny, adorable face of his!
then to the tree of life and the bug movie. which he LOVED

quinn rode the train all by himself at down town disney
nate was making uncle johnny aka uncle lego very proud. he built many a towers. nate loves lego
off to the much have lunch at olive yummio garden. what's lunch with out putting napkins on your head?
nate's turn
then off to magic kingdom. nate liked the tea cups and so did i...bec we didn't spin them
nate on his very first and faster then i thought it would be- roller coaster...in a part of toon town that i didn't know existed.
that was a big thing i noticed this trip. it was all about the boys. i didn't go to the adult part(s) once. i spent the day doing kids stuff and seeing a whole new part of this park. i was shocked at how many "new" things i did this trip....and how much more i still have to do!
nate playing at one of the many, many amazing kid parks. this one was the winnie the pooh park. nate loves pooh
then off to tom's island. we spent 45 mins on this island. i had never been over there before. it was a blast. so much to do! the boys ran all over the island. again, impressed by how much i haven't done
on the raft going back to the island. that's the haunted house in the back ground
mini prayer meeting. ha. mom wasn't feeling well enough to return to the magic kingdom for the parade/fire works, so we had the boys pray for her (cry, you should not be laughing....haha)
then nate joined in
seriously, the power of a praying child is powerful strong
aunty and quinn on the tram after the prayer meeting.....quinn will give me the best smiles evah!
moi and my boy...note his flush cheeks. this would be the start of nate getting sick, my poor, poor boy!
me and my boy just before the fire works
star struck by the fire work show

nate was very impressed
very
off to animal kingdom lodge to see more animals

dad and nate playing around. nate was quite sick so dad "had" to carry him
huge reason to kick this cancer dad. we need you around
the shoe story
the boys were quite rangy and getting into mischief. we sent them off to play. then they got quiet. the nate ran into the living room proclaiming "tada" which ='s "mom come and see what i just did"
so i grabbed my camera and found this
the boys dragged out the high chair, then piled our shoes on it
they were very pleased with them selves
close up of their hard work
quinn was tucked in quite cosy and comfy at the airport

until nate stole his sook, then proudly looked up at me with a sly smile
the flight back. nate was all tucked in and playing with his blanket.
yes ursi, that is the blanket you made for him. he sleeps with it every. single. night. he loves it
all in all it was a great trip. i learnt many lessons, cried many tears, laughed, reflected and enjoyed the break from "life"
i missed chris like crazy and have decided that i will not travel with out him anymore. it's not the same not having him around...for the record he CHOSE to stay home...crazy boy...
it's great to be home, my bed is wonderful and the arm that holds me as i sleep is even better
