Kelly's pov: it's been about a month since we started Greyson on solids and he loves it. He will eat anything you give him so that's good. He is now almost six months old are you so close to crawling, I bet the guys at the firehouse or taking bets on when he will start crawling since I did that with the other three kids . But I think if Greyson doesn't want to crawl that's one less thing we have to keep up with. The kids have about a month left until they go back to school. Right now the older kids are at their friends house hanging out well me and Stella are at home hanging out with Greyson
S= so when do you think this look I will start crawling
K= I think super soon maybe his birthday present to you as he start crawling all the sudden
S= maybe that would be a cool birthday present but I kind of don't want him to crawl just yet
K= I totally get it
S= matte because he is my baby and I don't want him to grow up so fast
K= I am here so I have been thinking lately we haven't took on a family vacation
S= what do you mean we take one every few months when we go up to the cabin
K= yeah we do but we never took in a real vacation before to me the cabin is more of a getaway then a vacation. And besides we haven't been anywhere since you got pregnant with this little guy
S= that's a good point
K= so what do you say we go on a vacation right before school starts up again
S= I say let's do it do you have any ideas where we should go
K= well maybe we should go to Florida and go to Disney world
S= The kids will love that
K= all right I guess we should go and look for plane tickets to Florida
S= I guess so ( they start looking) now we got to figure out a way to tell the kids
K= yeah who know
S= how about this we get shirts made it say "I'm going to Disney World" with Mickey Mouse ears on the shirts and give it to them as a present
K= that will work so how long are we going to stay in Florida
S= I say about two weeks
K= oh yeah so how would you feel if a vacation falls on you and the girls his birthday.
S= I think that would be fun
K= hi I think I found the tickets for a good price
S= that's good I found us in Airbnb to stay at while we are in Florida
K= well that's good now we just need to tell the kids
S= yes we do
The next few days we get things in order for our trip, The guys offered to take turns watching Oreo all the two weeks that we're gonna be gone which works out we don't have to worry about the dog. We get the time off approved from headquarters. Today when the kids were at a friends house we went to go get the shirts made so he can tell them tonight. A couple hours later we all are almost done eating dinner

Stella's POV: it's been a crazy few weeks since we started Greyson on solid foods luckily for us he isn't pick it either like some of the other kids. A couple days ago Kelly came up with an idea where we take a family vacation, at first I wasn't sure but after a few minutes I think it was a good idea and I loved where we were going to go which is Disneyworld. Since I was little I've always wanted to go on a great vacation in specially want to Disney World so it's nice that we're going to give the kids what something that I didn't get to do as a child. When we told the kids the other day they were going to Disney World they were so excited to go and see all the favorite Disney characters. Yesterday we got the whole house clean and got all our stuff ready for the trip. Right now It's the morning we leave I wake up a little bit before everyone else so I can make sure everything is ready for the trip. Once I get everything checked over I'm going to jump in the shower real fast and I get myself what are you where are go and make everyone a quick breakfast before we leave. About five minutes later Kelly wakes up and comes out to the kitchen
K= good morning sunshine
S= well good morning babe
K= how long have you been up
S= for about a half an hour to 45 minutes I was double checking everything and got myself together, no I am making a quick breakfast for everyone before we leave
K= wow you got things done this morning
S= oh yeah the food will be done here in a few
K= well I guess while the food is still cooking I would jump in the shower and get dressed myself
S= all right then
Kelly goes in charge when I finish up the breakfast about 10 minutes later he comes out to the kitchen again
K= do you need me to get the kids up
S= yes since the food is done and we need to leave here in the next hour and a half
K= all right I will go get them then
S= all right
( 5 minutes later)
SM= good morning mommy
S= good morning shay did you sleep well
SM= yes I did
SG= mommy when can we see the princesses
S= we will see them here in a few hours don't you worry
K= so who is excited to go
LM= I am so excited to go
SM= I can't wait to go on the airplane
K= so kids there is a couple things we need to go over before we go to the airport
S= oh yeah
LM= what's up mommy
S= well first off you have to listen to us in the airport
K= Second off when we go you guys have to stay by mommy or me. No running off to many different directions
S= third when we get seated on the airplane you don't get up and one up and down the isle
K= now the only time you can get up out of your seat is when you have to use the restroom
S= does everyone understand the rules
SM= I understand mommy
SG= I understand daddy
LM= understand
K= are you guys all done eating now
SM= I am
SG= I am daddy
LM= same here
K= all right go get dressed in the clothes that mommy set out for you guys
SM= all right let's go ( they leave)
S= so before we go we should figure out how we all will be sitting on the plane
K= oh yeah well there's only three seats in each section so each take two kids and sit in the middle of them
S= oh yeah how about on the way to Disney World I take both boys and you sit with the girls
K= are you sure you're fine with having Greyson on the plane with you
S= yeah I'm fine besides I already figured that shay would want to sit with me and Sailor would want to sit by you. So I figure to keep girls together same with the boys
K= all right that works for me
SG= daddy i'm ready to meet some princesses
SM= i'm ready to meet some bad guys
LM= i'm ready to read on the plane
S= of course you are Lulu you are my bookworm
K= so who wants to help load the car up

SG= I will help mommy
SM= I will help you dad
K= I come on buddy let's go get the car loaded up
Me and Sailor clean up the kitchen and breakfast while Kelly and shay get everything in the car for the trip. While Luna plays with Greyson to keep him entertained for a minute. About half half an hour later everything was cleaned up and put into the car
S= so are we ready to go to Disney World

S= Babe you get to drive us to the airport
K= all right let's go and have a fun family vacation in Disney World

S= right Florida is a great place to start crawling then
We enjoy the rest of the day in the pool and realizing that when we get home we have to start baby proofing the house again
Kelly's pov: ever since we told the kids that we are going to Disney World they have been super excited. The other day we landed in Florida the kids loved it. ever since we got here The kids have been living in the pool, we s have been here for five days. We spent three days so far at Disney World The first day we were here Greyson decided to start crawling so now we have to baby proof The house when we get back home. Right now it's the morning of our third day at Disney World and also it's a girls birthday. They kids are all still asleep and I am the only one up so I decided to make some breakfast for everyone, about five minutes later I hear Stella coming into the kitchen

Stella's POV; it's been a couple days since we got here in Florida for our vacation to Disney World. Since we've been here the kids have been a lot happier which makes me so happy. Greyson stared to crawl on our first day here. So now when we get back home we have to baby proof the house . The last few days I've been feeling a little sick to my stomach but today I woke up feeling great which is good because it's mine and the girls his birthday. And I have something planned for them

We eat our dinner while the kids tell us their favorite parts of the day. About 30 minutes later everyone is done eating we had the kids play for a few. About half an hour later it was time for cake and presents

The girls open all their presents and they loved everything they got. The kids got me a gift since it was also my birthday which was a gift certificate to get my toes and nails done.
