I'm the exact same way! I'm so excited I can't stand it. We watch the planning DVD at least 1 or 2 times a week, I just got DD's layaway out yesterday with her Disney clothes (she woud ruin them if I didn't buy her special vlothes) and I have my touring plans done! I have a ritual for every vacation, Disney or otherwise. I always buy a new tube of toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, body was, scrubbies etc to use on out trip. I pack them up along with everything I possibly can in advance like towels, extra film batteries everything you need on vacation except clothes. This is only our 2nd trip to Disney and I also buy Disney clothes that match and put them up also. So Disney I'm packing 3 months before, anywhere else about 2 weeks! It's just nice seeing those packed and ready to go that makes it real for me. And it also make it really easy when I actually have to pack because I only need to pack clothes, stuffed animals to sleep with, just the last minute things! That's my little ritual other than checking the DIS eveery day, TGM every day and the WDW website every day.
