When you do a repeat activity like this it is easy to see how your children have changed. My oldest didn't want to get pictures with any characters this year and when Drizzella (Cinderella's evil step-sister) kissed him on the cheek and left lipstick behind he had his hoody up to hide his face and was looking for the nearest bathroom to wash it off! Last year my middle son barely made the 48in height requirement for the biggest rides and was always getting measured. This year they didn't even glance at him as he walked by. He also pushed the stroller for most of the trip (such a sweetheart!). My five year old daughter was so excited to see the characters and talk to everybody. But then she noticed that during the fireworks Tinkerbell is on a zip line and not actually flying. And then she noticed feet under the snowman's costume. She felt so tricked and betrayed! This is all such a difference from not just our first visit but our trip just last year as well.
But enough about them and on to me! (hehe). We had the dining plan in Disney which means TONS of delicious food. I really waned to eat it all but there was just no way I could. For one thing it hurt my stomach to even look at all that food but also I knew all too well that the pounds would be more than happy to attach themselves. I drank sugar free ice tea or water, avoided the fries and fried food and always left food on my plate. Hubby on the other hand was eating all his food plus some of mine and the kids while drinking milkshakes and eating dessert.
Yesterday morning was the moment of truth. I stepped on the scale. Even with all that walking and never finishing my meals I still gained 2 1/2 lbs. Hubby, well, he lost four. Aaaaaaarrrrrrgggggg!!!!!! I could have killed him dead right there! How is that fair at all?!?!?!? Why oh why does he get to LOOSE FOUR POUNDS and I gain two and a half???????. I ate less, I took more steps with my shorter legs, I carried the backpack. It doesn't add up! Men suck. That's all there is to it.
