thursdays visit to DLR and last nights Haunt

[pnutshuman]

had a blast thursday! My mom in law wasnt able to watch the baby so we all went(me, mom, bro, 2.5 yr old Max and 7 week old Isabella(Belle). it wasnt quite as crowded as it was last thurs for the meet up and was much cooler! Max wore his SGT shirt, Belle wore her SGT bib and I had my pin!! only went on a few rides with the kids since I had the baby with me and didnt want to do the swap(i know im coming back again and again) momand bro hadnt been to DL in many years (mom since 1975 and bro since 89) so they went on everything and I just hung out with the kids, fed the baby etc. we got belle her ears(in our family its the law that everyone must get ears on their first trip) they were quite big for her(i got the pink ones) but still cute. didnt see anyone from the meetup, but theres always next time. the coolest thing was while they went on soarin i took Max out of the stroller to measure him, he hadnt been measured since his 2 yr check up in april when he was 36.5 inches tall. well he was less than half an inch from the 40 inch mark, wow!! one more tiny growth spurt and he can go on anything, pretty scary since hes only 2 and a half. my only dissappointment was i dont like to shop til the end of the day do by the time i went to look at the costumes they didnt have anything i liked in max's size, but it did save me money. we also went to the haunt last night(without the kids) it was sold out and crowded but still fun. it was my 3rd and final visit this season, the best one was sept 29th, no lines at all! will take max to camp spooky next weekend i think(without the baby) and will make sure to have him wear his SGT shirt again. i did have my pin on at the haunt too, thought some of the monsters recognized it but hard to tell. ok, just wanted to thank all the hard workers for nice visits, hope to see you all again soon, might not make it back to DLR until hubby gets back from work trip out of the country sometime before thanksgiving.

Make sure to read the warning signs, some of them specify that the kids should be 40 inches tall *and* 3 years old. No CM would probably ask the kids age, but for his safety and all.

oh, totally, just because he is tall enough, doesnt mean he will be going on them. im way too paranoid and much too good a parent.
