“Just a mom.” What does that even mean? “Oh, you just stay home with the kids all day. Ok, cool.” Seriously? Am I the only one who takes offense to that? I think it’s the word “just” that rubs me the wrong way. It weakens the idea of being a mom; to me, it belittles…

Epcot
Epcot is more than twice the size of the Magic Kingdom. (To me it doesn’t seem like it, but it is true!) Epcot is the land of culture and adventure! The park is represented by Spaceship Earth, the big white golfball looking sphere that also serves as an attraction. The landscape at Epcot is absolutely…
Hollywood Studios
Hollywood Studios. MGM. The park with the cool hat and awesome roller-coaster. The one with Tower of Terror. Those are all correct! Growing up going to the parks, it was MGM. In 2008, Disney changed the name to Hollywood Studios, which seems more fitting, but I still slip up sometimes! Sadly, the sorcerer’s hat made famous…
Animal Kingdom
We were all bone tired by day 3 of our vacation. Magic Kingdom wiped us out, but it was up and at ’em early again the next morning for Animal Kingdom! Luckily we got to use the “Extra Magic Hours” because we stayed at a Disney Resort! Animal Kingdom had the extra hour in the…
Magic Kingdom (the most magical of all!)
I LOVE Magic Kingdom. No, seriously, I LOVE it. It makes me feel like a kid again. To me, it is the most magical of places. Disney takes the cake already, but Magic Kingdom is the butter-cream icing and magical sprinkles on top. My first tip is take advantage of the constant buses from your…
Downtown Disney
We got up early on Monday morning, having already packed most of the car the night before, and headed to Disney. (After we had to search all over town for my missing wallet…that ended up being in the kitchen in the double stroller we had taken out of the car to make room for everything….
Cape May Cafe
This week I will be sharing about our Disney trip last year and answer questions about all things Disney! Last March my husband and I took our two toddlers (11 months and almost 3 years old) and my in-laws for a week at Walt Disney World! We stayed at Shades of Green and had a magical time. I…
A letter to my precious children
My precious Liam and Holdyn, I love you more than I will ever be able to communicate and more than you will ever know. That being said, that love is going to come across as anything but sometimes. Especially when you’re older and we begin to butt heads over issues, clothes, etc. First of all,…
A prince & a princess in a Disney channel world
For those of you who know us, you know we are a Disney family. Disney Jr is what is on our television if the kids are watching tv, Disney is our favorite vacation spot, and more than half of the toys strewn all over the house are Disney related. We may just be obsessed with Disney,…
Toddler Tantrums
Toddler tantrums. We have all seen them. All children have meltdowns. Yes, there are different degrees of them. I have seen all levels from my children personally. At home, at a relative’s house, etc. It is embarrassing. It is aggravating. It is obnoxious. It is normal. Read that again: it is normal. It breaks my…
