This is going to be a quick post, b/c I've got A LOT to do on my list today! We have family coming in tomorrow whose staying with us for a bit- so trying to make the house pretty and not look SO lived in, with a toddler! ha I don't I'm accomplishing that look when Miss Priss is creating a new mess every 5 to 10 minutes! *Note to Santa- Mommy would like a maid for Christmas this year! :) Hope it's a wonderful Monday for everyone!

it's a CHARMED life

One of my favorite girly songs for Prissy Pants is
"Charmed Life"
It's just a fun, girly, & whimsical song- & a MUST listen if you've never heard it before!
(Charmed Life- Leigh Nash)
*From the movie "Uptown Girls"


This morning I took a few pictures of Miss Priss enjoying "Lucky Charms" (for the first time)
while watching one of her favorite shows, Strawberry Shortcake, and it reminded me of this song!
Everything is charming when you are two, well except for NAP TIME!








It's a charmed life
Innocence wild
Crayola skies for a thousand miles
It's a good life in the happily ever after
Last page of a very last chapter
It's the story of a charmed life

It's a charmed life
Unexplainable grace
Stumbling, you fall right into place
It's a childlike world and you can feel the magic
Far from the typically tragic
That's the beauty of a charmed life

Who needs to know
When it all comes and where it all goes
Who needs to know just where
Fate will take you there

It's a charmed life
Innocence wild
Crayola skies for a thousand miles
It's a good life in the happily ever after
Last page of a very last chapter
It's the story of a charmed life

Na na na...
Na na na...

Who needs to know
When it all comes and where it all goes
Who needs to know just where
I know you'll be there (I know you'll be there)

It's a charmed life
Innoncence wild
Crayola Skies for a thousand miles
It's a good life in the happily ever after
Last page of a very last chapter
It's the story of a charmed life

Na na na...

(It's the story of a charmed life)

Na na na...

(It's the beauty of a charmed life)

Na na na...

(It's the story of a charmed life)

Na na na...

(It's the beauty of a charmed life)

Na na na...
Na na na...

trip to DISNEY {{part V day two}}


waiting to get in to watch "Mickey's PhilarMagic"...

putting the FABULOUS dark yellow 3-D glasses on Miss Priss...

or trying to...


ON! & ready to watch MICKEY!

NOT pictured, but just wanted to add a little story, beacuse I don't want to forget it...
it was a "3-D" short film, and during one scene with Ariel, there were all these jewels that came at us and were floating, and my little Prissy Pants was reaching out for them! :)
it was the cutest little thing, and I knew for sure the fab lil glasses were indeed working for her!
And I was a bit proud too, because she for sure is a girly girl, reaching out for the jewels!



Back to the RIDES...
waiting in line for the Carrousel!
(Prince Charming Regal Carrousel)

this time around, we did NOT love the horsie's!

I think this picture captures that...



SO off we got!

Right across from the horsie's was a little shop- which was the perfect little break we needed!

 



Something apparently really caught my eye- although I don't remember what,
because I didn't purchase any clothing for her from there that day! ha

"Smile&Pose for Nonna"
but she was too busy checking out all the Princess things!

 "Mirror, Mirror..."


as we walked out, we had a perfect view of the castle...
(because it's right there)


"La Fontaine de Cendrillon"
{{Cinderella Fountain}}

We, of course, HAD to get a picture in front of it...
(however, getting a good one, not so much!)

(attempt #1- Nonna cut part of me out, and I was getting Prissy Pants jacket situated)


(attempt #2- someone's not looking at Nonna)


(attempt #3- again, Nonna cut part of me out and someone, again, isn't looking at Nonna!)
haha



Next, was off to ride the TEA CUPS!

Miss Alice!

{{Mad Tea Party}}

***sidenote- SO can NOT wait to throw Prissy Pants a "Mad Tea Party"!
I just hope she continues to LOVE Alice in Wonderland until then!

waiting in line...

&
getting excited...


Asking her which color teacup she wanted...
pointing out to the one she wanted to spin in!


getting even MORE excited...



Nonna noticed that on the giant kettle, it looked like it had a "2" on it...
so she tried to get a picture of us and it in the background...
I use the word "tried" on purpose! :)





patiently waiting...



getting ready...

posing for Nonna...


LOVIN' it!


she LOVED the spinning and twirling around & around!


showing her how to turn the wheel...

*ONE of my FAVORITE pictures! (of many)

turning it, round and round!

giving Mommy a hug... priceless! :)



Caught the "Dream Along With Mickey" show...
(as we were planning on leaving for the day)



making sure I kept my little bundle of love all bundled up!

(it began getting cooler around this time of the day)



  posing with Minnie Mouse, & Prissy Pants is saying "Cheeeeeeeese"

posing with Mickey Mouse!




trip to DISNEY {{part IV day two}}


{{parade pictures}}



After the Bear's "concert"- ha! :)
It was time for the afternoon parade- so we found a spot and waited...


and Gaga took pictures...

I put down some padded mats...
(diaper changing pads- I found/made a new use for them!)





and she had snack time (goldfish & milk) in ROCKSTAR style...



{{my little ROCKSTAR, with a BIG flower headband and mouse ears!}}


She then thought it was HILARIOUS to play with the rope, they had in place for the parade,
roping off where you need to be behind....


Being the MOMMY, I asked her to come back and sit down, and I got this face...

with her arms crossed and all!
she's SO my mini me! :)

I couldn't help but laugh... this is her newest face she makes (& pose)
when I ask her to either do something or not do something!



the parade...
{{Celebrate A Dream Come True Parade}}


{{Chip or Dale... not sure which one... ha ... I'm a bad Disney Fan}}

{{"Jessie" from "Toy Story"}}

{{Minnie Mouse & Mickey Mouse}}


{{float with: "Jiminy Cricket", "Pinocchio", & "Snow White" and "The Prince" or "Snow Prince"}}



{{float with: the stork & "Dumbo", "Aladdin", & the "Genie" and on the back: Marry Poppins & Bert}}


{{Marry Poppins & Bert}}
{{float with: "Peter Pan" & "Wendy", "Alice" & "The Mad Hatter"}}
{{the mice: Suzy & Perla from CINDERELLA}}

{{Anastasia}}
Of course, we would attract the attention (because of her Birthday Pin)
 of one of the wicked stepsisters of Cinderella! haha
 But at least it was the nicer of the two and the one in HOT PINK! :)
Kenley refused to give her a "high five"... I was a bit embarassed, but told Anastasia-
Sorry, but we are huge Cinderella fans!

{{the Fairy Godmother}}

{{Cinderella & Prince Charming}}

{{float with: "Belle" and the "Beast", "Ariel" and "Prince Eric"}}


                                                                 {{the Beast}}
                                            Kenley waved to him and even blew him kisses!


{{Ariel}}



Now pictures of Gaga's attempts to get a picture of me and Prissy Pants
(which was an epic FAIL X's 3!)


 
ALMOST,
 if her eyes weren't closed and if I would've been looking at Gaga instead of Miss Priss!

ohh, SO close!
if only she was looking at Gaga, ohh well, I'll take it! :)
