1)  33 Days til Disney!!!  Woop Woop!  I can't wait.  I've actually never been much of a "Disney" fan as far as characters and stuff go, but taking your kids to Disney for the first time is so exciting!  I can't wait to see their little faces - they're going to have a blast!  For those who are wondering, we will not be telling the boys we're going until the morning of.  We're doing this for 2 reasons - 1) when they know we're going somewhere (my sister's house for example) they bug the STEW out of us asking every 5 minutes if it's time to go yet.  The other reason is Steven and I pictured waking them up for their first time and surprising them, totally out of the blue.  So my sister has it all planned out - we'll wake them up that morning, sit down at the table for a Mickey Mouse themed breakfast and share the exciting news....WE'RE GOING TO MICKEY MOUSE'S CASTLE TODAY!!!!  She already bought the plates and cups and I was instructed to make Mickey Mouse pancakes.  It'll be so fun!!!

2)  Valentine's Day is coming up so I bought the boys' their valentines for their class - P wanted Skylanders and L wanted Spiderman.  It's funny b/c they're close to a lot of the 5 year olds in the Pre-K class so they're wanting to give valentines to their friends in that class too.  I have no problem with it, but I'm not sure how the teachers will feel.  I think they prefer playing with those kids b/c they're more on their level.  We had to join the 4 year old class though b/c they didn't turn 5 before Dec. 31st.

3)  The boys told me they want their birthday party this year to be at Kids Play.  Fine by me :)  It's not cheap, but it's so worth it to have it in a clean, fun place where I don't have to clean up or decorate!
