My DD is 3 and we leave in 2 days :cool1: Yeah I went through the same struggle a while back. She's SOOO short that she'd never even be asked if she's three. Most people assume she's 2. She's not even tall enough to ride Barnstormer, poor thing, and she's really stressed about it. We went...

You're in the same boat I am. Our DD6 is 48" and 54 lbs. All the sit-n-stands are rated for either 35 or 45 lbs on the rear platform - not enought for our DD (or your DS). I think a sit-n-stand is not an option so we're renting a double stroller.

Never one to turn down charity, please consider me in-line for a spreadhseet as well. Declansdad, you are uber-generous and I'm sure your karma account is overflowing by now. :thumbsup2 matt f's e-mail TIA!

I thought TGm was for one year or up to 90 days after your trip, something like that. It's definitely not unlimited.

TGM sponsors this board, :thumbsup2 which is the main reason I use his site. I've found it very helpful. :surfweb: :teacher:

Thanks disnut, I edited the original. The idea we're throwing around now is adding a day on the end. We could then do Epcot on Sunday, MGM, MK, MK, and AK on Friday. The reason AK is Friday is so that we can still get on the road at a reasonable hour. The advantage here is that the...

Our first trip - August this year. Staying at Shades of Green. First thing we do will be breakfast at Chef Mickey's. I can't wait for the girls' faces at Cinderella's Royal Table on our last day! I'm going to make up a personal invitation "from" Cinderella, inviting them to lunch at the...

Wow, thanks mickeystoontown! Yes, we will definitely be spending our last day at MK with CRT, Spectro, and Wishes. Just don't know if that will be our only day at MK. I just might have to hop, skip, or add a park or day to the front end. Don't worry, no stress here. I know that no...

That's a great idea that I hadn't thought of - thank you! We're not currently planning on buying hoppers, but hey, we might have to decide between hoppers and an extra day, who knows. :thumbsup2

OK, huddle up. :grouphug: Short history: Family of 4 making our first trip to WDW this August. Plan to spend 4 days in theme parks, Monday through Thursday. Original plan was to See Epcot, AK, MK, MK on the four days, and skip MGM. However, there are several things in MGM my DD3 and DD6...

I went through this with my daughter a few months ago. She stays awake for an hour in her room alone many nights anyway - in bed, in the dark, all alone! My best tactic was a very dim room with a lamp on next to me in a chair. I just sat and read a book. Do not look at the child and they'll...

Benefiber tablets are much better than the powder. The tablets are berry or orange flavored and they're really good. My kids love them. My DD5 is also on prescription laxative powder any day that she doesn't go before dinner time. She takes it really well, we put the powder in her milk at...

The "discount" for mid August is that everyone will go later for free dining, and the crowds will be gone! We're going Aug 12 - 17 and I'm (in a tiny, optimistc, silver lining sort of way) *glad* that free dining is not offered because it means fewer people in the parks. Would I rather have...

I think your second itinerary looks great. You might consider going back into MK on your last evening for fireworks and a ride or two. It would be a long day but it's your last and you could end with the fireworks and/or spectromagic if they're showing.

Last time I rented, I used carrentals.com - it's a price search web page, sort of like cnet. You just tell it where, when, and what size car you want and they find good rates for you. A bunch of carriers and prices will come up. Simple. I got a mid-size for $17 a day from Enterprise at the...

Looks like Thursday is an EMH morning too. Two worlds collide!

Two websites tell you EVERYTHING: www.steves-digicams.com http://dpreview.com I have a Panasonic Lumiz FZ-20. 12x optical zoom with image stabilization. 50 mm lens lets in lots of light for great pictures at high zoom.

I bet it's because of grad night. The parks close early for grad night, right? If grad night was Fri/Saturday and the park closes early for grad night, anyone who wants to see Spectro/Wishes will have to go on Thursday.

Good point re: location. Exactly my point. Our whole itinerary is based on Dumbo. Have to get there first, which puts us in Fantasyland first thing. Not that it matters, really, I just don't get it. BTW, I'm stubborn and thick headed about things that defy logic. So I might need...

OK, I've never been to WDW (well, OK, I went in 2nd grade, which was 1981 :geriatric ). My wife went about 10 years ago. So we're basically two clueless newbies :confused: :confused3 :confused2 (say that three times fast)... and I had the NERVE to suggest to my wife that our kids DD3 and DD6...
