Posing for the camera!
















So I was trying to get some work done on the computer when Miss Naomi decided to join me, literally!! Since I had recently been posting some pictures she grabbed my camera and started saying 'Cheese' so I took some pictures of her. (the ones in the green outfit were yesterday) When Isaac heard the commotion he had to come check out what was happening, he never misses a beat! Than today Naomi did the same thing...and this time it was Miss Jojo that also wanted in on the fun!!

When Naomi's attack!!






As I mentioned in a previous blog Naomi is our child that can not be left unattended not even for a minute. Here are a few of the traces around the house from her damage. The ones of her on the counter with the box of Lucky Charms happened today. If I turn my back even for 2 minutes to change Joelle's diaper and Naomi disappears...we all get worried! This past Tuesday she knocked a closet door down by accident that side swiped the side of my leg leaving me with a huge gash and even bigger bruise. I was literally in tears when it happened and had to limp around for a couple of days. And yes, she did pull of just about every key on my laptop, that I need to use for work! But she's our Nana and we wouldn't want another!!

Wrapping it up!






We left the Playhouse Disney show just in time to use our fast passes for a new Toy Story ride. It was a lot of fun and Nana enjoyed shooting the cannons. Than we rushed to the Tower of Terror, so Isaac and daddy could go for a ride one last time. (It was Isaac's 4th time on the ride today!! I guess once for every year of his age. :) But that wasn't his last ride of the day (although he will tell you it was his favorite!!) Daddy than gave him a ride to the car. This was a wonderful time for our family. We truly enjoyed ourselves and each other! We felt really blessed by God to have the opportunity to be there!!

She's going, going....gone!





Jojo stayed awake long enough to rock out with the Pixar characters for the block party. But soon enough she was a goner!! So we took our time strolling around and taking some pictures. Than made our way over to the Playhouse Disney show. (There are some cute videos on YouTube of them dancing along and having fun!!) Naomi even made a friend while we were waiting for the show to start. And Jojo woke up just in time to join in the fun as well!

After lunch!

Everyone's tummy was very full from lunch. And as you can see we had so much fun that we even tired Nana out!! So we took the opportunity to take a rest and hold our front row seats for the coming block party!









Finishing up with Lunch!






we truly had a wonderful time celebrating our little Jojo!

Lunch with Jojo
















To celebrate Jojo's first birthday we had lunch with Jojo!! The food was delicious and the kids had a blast dancing around. Here are some pictures. There is also more videos on YouTube from them dancing and having fun with all the characters! As you can see, at times Naomi was too busy eating to be bothered with the characters.

Nana and Belle




After much deliberation..these things are important after all...we decided we are going to gear Naomi towards having Belle as her favorite princess. They both have darker hair, they both love books, and both are considered by others as peculiar. Naomi is definitely cut from a different cloth. 'She really is a funny girl, a beauty but a funny girl' one of the lines from the song in the movie Beauty and the Beast. So I got Naomi a Belle doll this day (daddy wasn't around yet to say no! :) And sure enough she loved the doll...took it every where and was trying to dance with her..it was really cute!

And our favorite! CARS!!











Here we all are posing with Lightining Mcqueen and Mater. This has to be our family's favorite Disney movie...anyone of us can quote the movie for you!

Bolt! and others!
















The first few pictures are of us waiting to meet Bolt, from the newest Disney movie...can you tell Isaac was a little bit excited?!? And than we took some pictures with Jojo and Goliath...she really got a kick that we also had a Jojo with us...and so did Isaac. (Daddy wasn't with us for these, much to his dismay, he was still at work and would meet up with us a little later!)

And now..back to Disney!





These pictures are from the last day of our trip. It was the nicest day the whole time we were there...so we took the most pictures this day. We also have some really cute videos as well. Here we are at Disney MGM Studios with some of the different characters. Nana had fallen asleep in the stroller, she woke just in time for June to blow her some kisses!

Nana the pretty girl






I know it seems like this is a Naomi extravaganza...but that is only because she is the one that gets into everything. If we can't hear we already know we will be finding a BIG mess where ever it is she disappeared to. So, here as I was getting Jojo dressed to go out Naomi disappeared on me. Another thing we need to do around here is make sure all the doors to bedrooms and bathrooms are shut! So I eventually found her. In my bathroom...in my sink to be more exact...putting on makeup. Isn't she a cutie?!? I must have really worn her out that day because than she fell asleep waiting for her dinner!! :)
