    camcorder or not?

    Yes Yes Yes I would certainly take my camcorder (whatever the size) you cannot get back the times that you go to WDW (your kids will always get older) and if you miss it this time they will be 1 year, 2 years older (depending how often you go) and you will regret not getting them this time...

    I am about to cry!

    I agree with Mouser Any Disney is better than no disney at all!! Go for a few days! We always stay at ALMo or even off site But if you want to go, go cheaper - convince your DH that it is better to go cheap (does he love Disney as much as you? if he does it will be much easier to...

    Can a 1 year old nap in the WDW strollers?

    I wouldnt think that a 1 yr old could sleep in a WDW stroller - they are hard, upright and look really uncomfortable We come from the UK every year and have a dd 8 1/2 and DS 5 1/4 and we have always brought our own with us - we tend to bring an old one and then leave it either in the hotel...

    Anyone do anything special while counting down?

    What I think is a good idea is at the beginning of the month you are going to WDW is make something like an "advent" calander so that you have something disney in every pocket of every day leading up to the vacation - then every day the child puts her/his hand into the pocket and pulls out the...
