My Favorite Ride at Disney

Dumbo of course.

Could there be anything better than a flying elephant? Really.

Have you ever been on this ride? It’s great. You go flying up in the air…in an elephant no less, and you can even make it go up and down. (although mom wouldn’t let me do that part, she was hogging the control.)

It was just like in the movie (the movie Dumbo you know). Except that we were sitting in the elephant, and it was attached to a big spinny thing in the center, and there were like 15 different Dumbos....and I couldn't figure out who was the real one. But it was really cool anyway...

My only dissapointment was mom wouldn't let me go on it again since it had a 30 minute line. But the silver lining to the story is that at Animal Kingdom they had a ride with a flying dinosaur that was almost as neat as Dumbo and I got to go on that twice!

I love Disney World.

My Trip to Disney World

So I really did plan to post a lot more while I was hanging out with my new friends Mickey, and Minnie and the gang, but I couldn’t, because,…well… to put it bluntly, mom and dad were too cheap to pay the $10 each day to have internet access in our room.

That and they said I was too tired and miserable each day to sit up writing and posting photos, but what do they know, I was fine. A few little screaming fits each day at the parks and I get tagged as overtired and miserable….Huh!

But anyway, I want to apologize, and I‘ll make up for it the next few days telling you about some of my favorite stuff at the Land of the Mouse.

I’ll start with my favorite part, meeting Mickey and everyone.

Now you’ll notice in some of the photos I may look a little hesitant to meet some of the gang. First let me say, I was NOT scared like brother said I was, it’s just that Mickey and Minnie and Goofy are a lot bigger in person than they look on tv, so it took me a few minutes to adjust to that.

And yes, I admit, I did keep an eye on them and didn’t look at the camera in a lot of pictures, but that’s just because I was in awe of them….NOT because I was afraid.

Goofy was my favorite, and I actually got to meet him twice. And I got to meet Thumper and his girlfriend, and I have to tell you they were a whole lot bigger than the bunnies I have at home.

Then there was Chicken Dale, Chip and Dale as mom calls them, they were nice.

and I wasn’t getting near this guy….not sure who he was, but the twins said he was ok.

We also saw some princesses and Donald Duck but they were lots and lots of people getting their pictures with them, and mom and dad said we didn't have time to wait....but at least I got my picture with Minnie, Mickey and Goofy...I'm gonna hang them up in my room and get to see them every day!

I'm in Florida

I'll be the first to admit, I was not the best traveling companion on the second day of our trip to Florida.

Hey, I'm two, and when mom says we're going to Disney today, I expect to get there today.....not two days and eighteen hours of driving later.

So I did complain a little....

Ok, I complained quite a bit in the last 6 hours of the drive, and by complained, I mean whined and cried and said I wanted to go home, because that's what you do when you're two and unhappy....right?

But, we did eventually get to Florida, and I had mom take a picture by the sign to prove it. See.

And then we had lots of fun because we got to go on the playground at the hotel, and throw coins in a fountain,

and see birds and ducks and bunnies, and squirrels....

and, oh sure, we can see those things at home, but these are Florida animals.

Going to Disney World

Yeah!!!
We’re going to Disney World today!

Although mom said something about not actually getting to Disney today, but tomorrow. Something about an 18 hour car ride, and she kinda looked a little stressed then.

Huh. I wonder what that was all about.

Helping Mom Sew

I love helping mommy with everything, and she always says what a very big help I am….so I know that she appreciates it.

Like yesterday, I was helping her with her sewing.
You can see I was helping to choose the fabric and then spread it out for her to make sure it was all good and draped well.

So if you need any help at your house, I’m available. I also do sweeping, dishes, baking and painting, for a small fee of course….ice cream with cool whip is fine.

A Cold Day in Spring

I was not happy the other day when it was cold outside.
Cold, like freezing cold, in spring….yuck!

Oh, and I know what you’re thinking, that I’m even pretty cute when I’m mad, but it’s not funny, and I’m not real happy mom was laughing and took a picture of me either…..

But don’t worry, I’m happy since it’s warm again now… and it better stay that way.

I hope you’re having nice warm weather where you live too!

Happy Easter

Hello again.

I hope you had an Easter as fun as mine.

Being that I’m only almost three, the whole Easter thing was pretty new to me, even though Mom says I’ve done it before. Honestly, I can’t remember a thing about it.

The highlight of the whole day was the food. I ate a lot of ham….and pretty much only ham, all day. I love ham…..and because I’m big, I can cut my own you know….I even have the picture to prove it if you don’t believe me.

I love the whole egg hunting game too. Have you ever tried it? It’s great. You wander around a yard and find eggs that are filled with all kind of candy, and sometimes even some money…really.

And then after you find all the eggs you get a basket full of more candy and stuff. It’s so much fun, you really should try it, although I’m not quite sure how the eggs get in the yard, or why they’re only there on Easter. Sissy said something about a bunny, but our bunnies don’t lay eggs…our chickens do that, so I don’t know what the heck she was talking about.

Well I hear mom coming to drag me off to bed…gotta go...

I'm Alexandra

Hello,
I’m Alexandra, and this is my blog.

Now even though I’m not quite 3, I want you to know that I’m not totally new to this whole blogging thing. I’ve been filling in for mommy once in a while on her blog, Kidoozy, in a series I call ‘Thru My Eyes’.

Oh and speaking of mom, please, don’t tell her I’m doing this, she might feel hurt. It's just I thought it’s about time I do my own thing; I mean, I’ll still help her out once in a while, I guess, but I need my own space…know what I mean.

Besides, we’re going to see Mickey Mouse next weekend and I’m so excited ..... Mickey Mouse…in the flesh, I mean I watch him on tv sometimes on Playhouse Disney and everything, but to meet him in person….wow.

So anyway, I want to write about it, and I doubt mom would let me do a whole week of Disney posts and I bet there's plenty of other kids like me who want to know what Mickey is really like from our kid point of view....no offense to all you mom's out there, but you're kinda old.

Luvff,
Alexandra

And please leave me some comments sometime, I'd love to know what you think of my blog....thanks so much....

Oh, and one more thing, if you don't mind; I want to give a shout out to my Dabaw and Poppi. They always tell me how much they like my writing on mom's blog, so they really gave me the confidence to start this myself.
