I have not been able to update for several reasons. Some of them are, 5 bags to unpack (we left with two) groceries, back to work, and the gorgeous weather that followed us back has been keeping us outside in the sun. 80s in April around here in not a regular temperature!
I don't know where to begin to start telling stories from our amazing trip. First of all we are so grateful to everyone who made this trip possible from Child Life that told us about it and helped fill out the paper work to the "Wish People" from Make A Wish who did all the arrangements. Dottie and a bunch of great friends and family members who contributed to the full princess makeovers. The most amazing place Give Kids the World, they truly did give our kids the world and added a cherry on top!
This week I realized how much our family had suffered the past couple of months, we were able to reconnect and have carefree fun at the Give Kids the World Village and all the fun places they had to offer. We came home refreshed, although Dan might still be recovering from the Disney crowds. We are back in Massachusetts, as Magi told everyone that would listen, and our batteries have been recharged to keep on going!
Without further delay here is our story in pictures of course. Get your popcorn and enjoy!

Disney Here We Come!!!
What a BIG day. Fist off since we were going just for counts I conveniently forgot to put the Emla Cream (numbing cream) on Mimi. When we got to the clinic she was asked if she would like to do a finger prick, flat out NO. She would rather the large needle in her chest... She thought about it remembered when Auntie Stacey showed her how she does finger pricks (to check her blood sugar) and right when the Emla cream was coming Mimi decided "Let's do the finger prick!" She cried for about 10 seconds more because of the popping noise I think than anything and told me later it didn't really hurt.
We went in the playroom for some play dough fun, massage and the best news! Mimi's counts were awesome which makes me feel so much better about going to Disney, a wish Mimi made back in November. We are all SO excited to go! We will be leaving this Sunday until ext Saturday. I am sure we will have about a million pictures from both cameras to share!
Today's Super Counts:
WBC - 4.90
Hgb - 12.0
