What sane person goes to Disneyland at 30 weeks pregnant? Especially when you have to travel to get there? Well definitely no sane person would but Elizabeth Hanson, a clearly insane person, thought that it was going to be a fun way to bond with their friends before she and Andrew became parents in ten or so weeks though she'd uttered 'I'm too pregnant for this' several times during the day as a lot of the rides wouldn't allow someone so obviously pregnant on which really really sucked. Serena was pregnant! Why did she get to ride on everything? Okay so she was a little bitter but hey Andrew had bought her an ice cream cone so things were looking up! "Oh my god, I'm too pregnant for this." Or not... She was leaning against him for support while they were walking. Oh pregnancy problems. There were so many children there that it was making her anxious to finally hold her little man in her arms and probably dress him up in humiliating things like the little boy that they saw earlier who was dressed up as a taco. She felt a little odd since she wasn't dressed up at all but it was uncomfortable trying to squeeze into a little costume.

Oh pregnancy. Serena was quite obviously pregnant now; she looked huge! Yet she wasn't very far along and she knew that she was only going to get bigger as her pregnancy progressed especially if she kept eating like she was but the chicken and fries was just so tempting! She couldn't not eat it which was why she had her lovely husband get her some to eat with a little cup of ranch dressing. Oh sweet heavens. She was just glad that she was able to walk and eat because there was no way in hell that she was going to sit down and hold up the group so she could eat. "Drake, these are amazing! You have got to try one of these fries! You won't regret it, I promise." She was sharing with Carver as well who also seemed to enjoy the food. James was in a black baby sling carrier though they had the stroller as well just in case carrying him like that started to get irritated and hurt her back or if he just seemed like he was abusing the 'mommy's tit is literally right there' privilege. Comfort nursing could only be done on a pacifier! Damn her boobs were tender just ask Drake who got a little handsie during sex and accidentally brought tears to her eyes.

( www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=57116389 ) Disneyland? How old were they? Andrew was mostly here because Beth had been pestering him to go since Serena and Drake invited them to tag along. At 30 weeks pregnant, flying was usually frowned upon, but Elizabeth had convinced her doctor to write a note allowing her to board the plane. She always got what she wanted, considering they had made a stop at Wingstop on the way from that same appointment. Today, Andrew was dressed differently than usual. Vacation was one of those "special occasions" where he wore real pants and a t shirt that wasn't sweated out from work. He was wearing dark jeans with a black Mickey t shirt and of course his black Nike Free runs. His hair was styled as usual in a sort of fauxhawk, and his hand was laced with Beth's as they walked through the park. What a sight -- The adults, (Elizabeth, Andrew, Serena, Drake, Mark, and Indiana) two of the who were currently obviously pregnant, two toddlers, and a baby, all walking together. To an outsider, it looked like the start of a bad reality show. "You're fine, Beth. Just enjoy Disneyland! You wanted to come so bad, and we're here. Let's have a good time!" Andrew was doing his best to enjoy the trip himself, even though it wasn't what he felt they should spend their money on, given that Elizabeth was intent on going on a cruise once Little Andy was born.

Drake: Drake wasn't sure he even wanted to be at Disney. He thought it was a sort of waste of money, as neither Carver or James would ever be able to remember being there until they were older - and then they would want to go again. A whole family at Disney cost well over $200, and then you add in food and transportation to the park itself? It was ridiculous but Carver and Serena wanted it. So at nine in the morning when they got to the park, they dressed up their daughter as Bell from Beauty and the Beast, and James had a fuzzy little bear hat on just for something to be dressed as. Carvs (well, mainly Drake, when she was tired) carried a little pumpkin bag for candy distributed around the park, and it was all rather cute - but Drake felt like he shouldn't have taken a few days off of work for it.
Following behind Serena, he held Carver on his hip and put his arm around his wife's waist, watching her eat and share with their daughter. He didn't really like what she was having, so he refused to try it, but it was still a comfy little family moment. He smiled at his wife's growing belly and her willingness to tough out the day at Disney on Halloween for god's sake. "So, what are we gonna do?" he asked.
Indi: Indiana was just as unenthusiastic about going to Disney as her brother was. She had never been there, and it was always so surreal. She could see the little kids laughing and having fun, running around and screaming. She could feel the roller coasters race past, rushing by with a path of wind. She could smell the food coming from all kinds of restaurants. But no matter what happened, she could never hear it. It made her sort of unhappy, to know that both she and her god child/niece could not hear anything that was going on. Carver was dressed up like Bell but.. she never knew what the Beast sounded like or how fun the songs were to sing, because she just couldn't hear them. It wasn't fair.
Pulling out of her emotions, she had to pay attention. Unlike Drake, she wasn't off duty - Mark and Amelie were walking with them, and Amelie was still her duty, even though Mark was there. It hadn't been specified that she was being paid or anything, and she didn't really mind if she wasn't, but she was never going to take her eye off of her 'target.' Amelie was just bouncing around, all cute and adorable with her father, so Indiana felt like a body guard. She just trailed behind, making sure no one was falling. Her bag was full of band aids and safety things, water bottles and snack bars, and there was even a hidden flare inside. She wanted to make sure everyone was having fun, even if she wasn't.

This was Amelie's dream come true; being at Disneyland. How awesome was that? She loved it already and it was easy to tell because of the large smile on her face and how she skipped instead of walked. "Don't go too far off... Remember what happened the last time." Mark said, he had gotten a mini heart attack after not being to find her at the Mets game. Amelie wore her hair in a french braid, she was supposed to be Belle except she wasn't wearing a dress but a yellow shirt and lacy skirt that was yellow as well. "I know. This place is just awesome. I love it." she exclaimed with joy before taking a few gummies from her bag and then offering some to Mark. Mark shook his head then looked around the theme park, "This place is so big... Amelie could get lost here very easily..." he said to Indiana. "I must sound paranoid, sorry." he apologized for sounding like a overly concerned guardian.

Elizabeth glanced over to Andrew and glared at him, you're fine?!? What kind of a sympathetic fiance said that? He was such a man! "Well I'm sorry that my pregnancy is such an inconvenience to you!" She knew that it was her own hormones that made her so snappy towards him but he should know better than to basically tell her to suck it the fuck up.
She was thirty weeks pregnant! What part of that was he not understanding? She let go of her hand and adjusted her dress before taking a lick of her ice cream cone. She was not happy with her fiance right now even though going was her idea to come in the first place.
She was swollen! And just in general uncomfortable, "Let's all play the fun sit down and do nothing game." She was just cranky.
She didn't get her nap today.

Serena was actually feeling pretty okay with her pregnancy, the morning sickness was for the most part gone and she could fully enjoy food again which was always a good thing. She was just.. happy. She was happy to enjoy her family and to be able to spend time at Disneyland like this. How could life could any better than this?
She didn't honestly know. "I don't know... What sounds fun? Let's um... It's getting kind of late and dark so I bet that the lights are going to turn on soon and it'll be gorgeous." They'd been walking around all day and she felt fabulous though her feet were a tad a lot swollen and she was a little uncomfortable.
She didn't care!
She didn't want to ruin everyone's fun just because she was slightly uncomfortable besides she had her chicken and fries! "Babe, are you okay though? Do you need to sit down?" She was always worried about him when he was carrying Carver because she didn't want him to be uncomfortable even though she was carrying baby weight along with their over nine pound child at all times and her boobs hurt!

Indiana: Indiana had to pay attention now, especially since Mark was talking. She couldn't hear him even if he shouted, really, not even a little bit. She had to look at his lips closely before replying with a small smile. "Yes, I know, it's not paranoid." She waved her hand a little to brush it off. She'd been in many cases with parents who were very over protective, helicopter parents, if you will, who would freak out over every detail of their child's life. "I'm keeping an eye on her - oh!"
Reacting quickly, Indiana reached out to grab Amelie's hand before she raced off. The girl had been pulling on Indi's jacket while she was talking, but she hadn't expected her to just run off like that. The girl had spotted a Disney Princess near by - the girl she was dressed as, to be exact. Indiana looked at Mark, then pointed to Belle, as Amelie yanked on her hand impatiently. "Do you want to take her? I can get a few pictures or something." She laughed.
Drake: Drake could tell his wife was tired, and James had been sleeping for hours, but Carver was awake and going insane. She could see a few of the princesses down the road and had been trying to leap out of his arms at the first sight of Belle. "I think she wants to see Belle!" He laughed, pointing the the tired looking brunette girl in a buttercup yellow costume. Putting Carver down, he walked her over to Belle, then knelt beside her and signed for her to say hello.
The worker looked confused at first but she was soon over joyed to be talking to a sweet little deaf girl. She was finger spelling things out and gushing with smiles, making little Carver squeal with excitement. Drake let her take some candy, a little extra than normal, from Belle, and then Carver lead him off to the next princess. Looking at Serena, he grinned, glad to be spending time with his family. "I think this'll be a long night!" He exclaimed, before turning around to introduce Carver to Snow White.

"Babyyy," Andrew groaned, reaching out to his fiancee, pulling her into a sort of hug as they were walking. "I just want you to have a good time, I know how much you wanted to be here," He kissed her temple, hoping his words were soothing her, at least a little. "I'll rub your feet when we get back, if you like," He tried, hoping that looking forward to something would change her attitude.
The park was decorated beautifully for the holiday, and seeing Carver and Amelie rushing towards the princess was giving him baby envy. The couple was growing impatient waiting for their little one -- thirty weeks, and still quite a few left? It felt like so much longer than it really had been.

Elizabeth knew that he was trying so she offered him a weak smile in response; she wanted to make him happy so she forced her smile to stay on her face and gave him a gentle kiss on his lips. "I'm sorry... I don't mean to bitch at you but I'm just tired of being so pregnant! Do you know how much pregnancy sucks? My boobs are sore, my feet are swollen, this kid kicks my ribs.... it's just not fun. I don't know how she makes it look so glamorous."
She stopped them and held him back so she could take a mini break. "I need a second.... We've been walking a lot today and he is not happy about this." She had to catch her breath; damn baby was making everything harder!
