Hollywood Studios with the Shillig 5 Family

 We started off the day bright and early, but surprisingly not stressful.  All the kids seemed to sleep til almost 7 versus their normal almost 6.  We got ready and headed to Disney's Hollywood Studios.  We had made a game plan, but when Jake's pass was his pass from LAST year and I left Brody's correct pass in the car I started thinking I was ruining everyone's day.  Jake went to the front and had his pass reprinted.  Luke and Kaylene took all the kids (b/c all their passes worked) to ride the Toy Story ride.  Brody and I waited and took a tram back to the parking lot for his correct Disney pass.  I thought everyone would be super annoyed but everyone was fine.  Brody and I got back and I realized it was still early and the park seemed very empty.  I told him since we didn't have kids we were going to run over and ride the "Rockin' Roller Coaster."  It was a 15 minute wait!  Before we went on we grabbed fast passes with our tickets for the other adults to use later.  To make a long story short it all worked out perfectly that we all traded on and off and rode Tower of Terror, Rockin Roller Coaster, Toy Story Mid-Way Mania, met Jake from the Neverland Pirates, and watched the Ariel Show all without waiting more than 15 minutes per ride/show.  This was our most efficient day at Hollywood Studios EVER.
Malachi was EXACTLY 40 inches to ride Tower of Terror with me and Brody when it was our turn to go (everyone tall enough rode it), he was so brave!  He didn't even cry.

In and out in under 4 hours, lunch at Chick fil-a, and now the kids are napping, PERFECT!

20 Weeks

Today we had the opportunity to go in for our 20 week ultrasound. We are excited to announce that baby #3 is a healthy BOY! We are excited but have to admit we are a bit nervous. Change is hard and after two girls this is definitely a change. It will be a fun and wonderful experience. I have already thought about little boy ACUs and PT clothes (little army clothes) and what I will decorate the "boy" room in etc. I have always heard boys are "easier" but more rambunctious so I guess we will just have to see. I was excited that during the ultrasound our little boy was crossing his legs at the ankle like both his sisters do! So funny! We will keep y'all posted on names and other developments.

Halloween 2023

 We pulled off our best Halloween!  Possibly ever!  Jake had a vision and it came true beautifully.  He even had the cutest song he sang.  I loved our last Halloween in our Hurst home.  

sometimes life may get you down

but then you remember how wonderful you husband is and it makes it all ok. Jake surprised me by ordering these gorgeous handmade pearl earrings from TINY STORM for me for Christmas and they were waiting for us with all our mail when we arrived back home after vacation. He got down on one knee and presented me with these earrings and it brought tears to my eyes. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful, hardworking, and loving husband who is always there to take care of me and love me when I am having a rough time. Thank you Jacob!
