This past weekend, I visited Walt Disney World as part of a group of Florida moms that were invited to visit and tour the facilities. We had a blast and our families got to enjoy the parks while we “worked.” I’ll go into more details of our trip and my baby girl’s first visit to Disney soon (maybe next post?). Right now, though, I wanted to share with you the moms I met and hung out with.
We are a tech-heavy household. That’s not to say that we don’t do any hands-on activities, such as crafts, coloring, and puzzles. It’s just that both my husband and I love technology and use it daily. So, it’s only natural that our baby girl will grow up in a technology-filled house and will learn to use it early on.
She already knows how to navigate our iPod touch, knows how to work a computer mouse, and knows many techy words. How many three year olds do you know that have words such as blog and email in their vocabulary?
Mine does.
The latest activity that she likes to do is play on the computer. Since she learned how to use the mouse, she likes to go on “the real computer” (our laptop) and play games online.
Of course, we limit how long she plays at any given time and we’re sitting right next to her when she plays. This way, she can still interact with us as she plays and we can guide and help her if she needs us to.
Where does she go to play online games? Here are some of her favorite places to visit:
Michael Jackson is dead. Dead!
And while my three year old will not understand the relevance of that, my husband and I sat at home last night repeatedly saying to ourselves, “Wow!”
I’m not sure why it hit harder than when any other celebrity dies. These things don’t usually phase me. I mean, I don’t know these [...]
Have you played Guitar Hero? I didn’t get into it at first; it was mostly my husband who played. But, then we bought Guitar Hero World Tour, which has not just guitars, but also a microphone and drums. Now we all get to play along.
It’s like our own little band. Me on vocals and baby [...]
After much time spent on attempting to potty train and many ups and downs, we have been having regular success this past week. Baby girl has actually used the potty at least once each day. She even went and sat down by herself without me or her dad having to make her sit. Major improvements, [...]
Wow! The next month is going to be so super busy, yet super fun too! Actually, the next couple of months…but when is it NOT busy?
I’m gearing up for BlogHer 09 and getting ready to meet many wonderful bloggers. It’s my first time at BlogHer and I’m looking forward to it, even if a bit [...]
Before I left for our vacation, I shared with you which foods from Puerto Rico I was most looking forward to eating while on our trip.
I didn’t get to eat all of them, but did eat many and some that weren’t even on my list.

Our week in Puerto Rico consisted of sightseeing, some family time, and a lot of driving back and forth from one spot to another. But, we had a great time and the kids were wonderful. Considering we were dragging them around with no regard for their normal routines and schedules, they behaved really well.
And my [...]
So about that post where I tell you all about the lovely places we visited in Puerto Rico. The one I should have published about 12 hours ago or so.
Yea, my computer decided to act a fool and work at the speed of a snail. So, I haven’t been able to finish gathering up all [...]
