Christmas Day

Our Christmas was all mixed up as I worked Christmas Eve, Rob worked Christmas Day and we were both off Boxing Day (day after christmas day) Christmas day morning before Rob went into work we opened a few gifts with the boys, gave them and us a preview before the big day. Rob then went into work and Mum and I headed to St Petes Beach with the boys. We took a picnic and had a wonderful day, the weather was perfect and the boys loved every minute of it.

The day after Christmas Day, Rob got home from the firestation and all was quiet in the house, all three boys still asleep. Rob my mum and I ran around like headless chickens and brought all the gifts downstairs and put them uder the tree ready for the boys waking up, then we sat with a cup of tea waiting!!!! They finally woke up and saw the presents but sat on their beanbags as usual and drank their milk before they looked at anything, their usual routine was a priority obviously. We were all like three children wanting them to get ripping open their gifts. Then slowly but surely they started to open them, it tool all day in the end. What a great day.

Magic Kingdom Family day out

Our first trip to magic kingdom where we were able to fold down the strollers and ride on the tram, the boys loved it, and sat quiet soaking it all in.  The parking guide told us to prepare and take the boys out of the strollers and have the strollers folded ready, we said "OK", and ignored him, The tram pulled up and we worked in a team as always, we put each of the boys in the tram, and then the strollers, thanks to the city mini strollers it was fast, we even were quicker with  them than some families were with one child and 4 adults lol.

Their hair was getting to be too long so we stopped by the barber shop on Main street to get their hair cut, it was very handy.

Anderson not too happy, but once he had something to play with he was OK

Benjamin sat still the whole time, i think he is like his mummy and likes getting his hair done

Christopher was having non of it, Rob had to hold him, so he got a quick trim

We went to line up to see the mouse, we were the first in line, and stood behind a big door, their was a knock at the door and the boys were shouting "knock knock" when the door opened  it was Mickey Mouse, they all squealed with excitement it was so funny. Mickey held their hands and led them to Minnie Mouse and the room to take photos. 

Anderson without hesitation going with Mickey, he wont go with anyone but give him a giant mouse and he was off.

I need Mickey Mouse as our nanny, the boys did everything the Mouse did





The pictures don't show the real excitement, they were giggling and loving every moment, we were not rushed as the people behind us was enjoying watching the boys. Mickey and Minnie sat down and played with them for a while, they were mesmerized. And when it was time to go they all just stood their waving.


Of course Christopher found his mickey mouse, and this was a big one, he grabbed its tail in his hand and sucked his thumb, then went on to the next one.

Waiting for the parade, eating popcorn and playing with hula hoops

Mummy and Christopher on Jungle Cruise, they loved the animals-even though they weren't real lol. After this ride we did the Tiki Room the loved that too, Benjamin's head was non stop looked all around. It made me think of Uncle Tony because when we first went to Disney he said to my dad "you must visit the Tiki Room it is great".

Notice Christopher running towards Dumbo, he loved every minute of it, remember the first time Danika went on that ride, i still have video of it.

We had a great day, stayed and watched the fireworks, we sat on the ground snuggled up, while the boys watched the sky light up, their was allot of ooos and aaahhhhs. We also met a set of triplet boys that were 8yrs old sat right in front of us.
