So "IF" we get DS to sleep in his stroller what can DH and I do while he naps? Are there any attractions/shows that we can bring the stroller into? We'll be going to all the parks.

Not really. We usually just walked around, went into the shops, or took turns riding the "big" rides using babyswap. We found it was kind of hard to find a quiet spot anywhere but as long as we kept moving ds didn't really have any issues sleeping. One thing that did help was a cover we bought to put over the stroller hood which blocked out most of the light - it was made by Kiddopotamus like this one: click here (http://www.kiddopotamus.com/p_bshade.php). (This (http://www.kiddopotamus.com/p_ray.php) is another option.) Of course you can always just clip on a small sheet or blanket too. :) We also took four trips to WDW between the time ds was 13mos and 24 months and he napped much better in his stroller when he was younger. By the time he was almost 2 his stroller naps were noticably shorter.

Also, some people like to just ride the Monorail around while their dc naps in the stroller. Just thought I would mention it...

Sorry, none of the attractions (except some of the international pavillions like Mexico) would let us bring in our stroller with the sleeping baby. Even though you can't bring the stroller onto attractions, this can be a great time to just relax in the park, people watch, and baby swap for the bigger rides. In all of the parks there is strolling entertainment in different areas, which you can enjoy with a napping child. Stores are nice as well. They're a little less crowded in the middle of the day.

I agree, there isn't much to do with a sleeping baby in a stroller! But like the other posters have said, I would take advantage of that time by just going with the flow. Maybe you could go to a sit down restaurant, where they will let you bring the stroller in. Maybe you can take a ride on the monorail and go check out each resort on the monorail line. You and DH can also take turns to go on the rides that baby can't go on! (Space, Splash, etc)
