well, he knew there was gonna be this birthday party thing...but he does NOT know what it has grown into! i din't mention the bbq or shots either. "surprise, honey!" he would just roll his eyes up anyway. he thinks i'm looney hanging out on this board!
sh - my kids are 5 & 7. we experimented with orlando in january, and they were very good. i would not have previously wanted to take them to bz, it can be a tough trip. but hubby insists they come with us from now on. i stay home with them every day, but he totally pines for them when we travel.
so, we'll try this. my 5 yr old boy was happy playing games on daddy's palm pilot the whole flight, and assumes he will again. i bring stuff to occupy them. will let you know. i think we will bring a laptop too, so they can play games at the airports. (and i can download my 1,000 pics)
also, we have a pool, so both my kids are excellent swimmers. i plan to take my daughter to shark/ray alley this trip. she is a great snorkeler. steve can't quite get it to breathe thru the snorkel. he prefers just a mask, so he stay back on snorkel trips. he can't wait to play with the hermit crabs. and he LOVES to cannonball!
my kids are unique (like us). they are real nature enthusiasts. so it is very exciting to them. steve's favorite animal is a giant squid (go figure). aimee is partial to kitties, but snails & butterflies are a close second. (?!)
so, we are taking them into the jungle for 4 days as well.
i am sure you will hear way too much about it upon my return.
