What a great first day! It sounds like you didn't push it too hard - there's always risk of that on the first day when you're just so excited to be there! Can't wait to read more
Izzy's about 30 pounds.He is still pretty little, about 24 pounds - not sure how big Izzy is.
I did the same thing one morning - passed up all the yummy items just to get a carton of milk. Takes some willpower! Glad you found some soy milk, though!It was hard to resist all of the delicious looking items in there, but somehow I managed to walk out with only two little (and expensive!)boxes of soy milk.
Way to go, Rory! Glad he did so well. Love that he was showing off his sticker too!He really loved meeting them, and would run up to each one, give them hugs, kisses, and high fives; he did really great with them!
sounds like things were working out with the EMH (park looks pretty empty in the pictures you posed) ... other than the general store not being open yet.
Love the pictures of Rory showing off his sticker - that is super cute!
Walking around World Showcase with a sleeping child in a stroller is one of the true joys for a parent
Yay...an update. And such a fun one too.
God they do rip you off for milk, etc., at those places.
I Loved those Cars toparies.
I'm glad Rory enjoyed Spaceship Earth and Nemo; adn I think all kids love Turtle Talk...it is so adorable. I bet Rory will be ready to ask a question when he gets a bit older.
And what simply adorable picturs of Rory with Mickey, Minnie and Goofy. He looks like he is really enjoying his character interaction this trip. I stll can't believe how big he has gotten.
And that you and Michael got to share the Cronut. I love those things (I'll probably put on 10 pounds next month because I definitely plan on more than one or two).

Sounds like a good start to an Epcot day. Great that he napped so well in the stroller. And yay for getting to snack around the world a bit!
So cute! A very nice morning, we found EMH at EPCOT to be totally useless, but that was when it was just Aria and me so no one was riding TT or anything. Glad you were able to enjoy Nemo and the character spot pics are so cute! And World Showcase eating with a napping toddler is just perfect! Mmm yes fruit is about the only thing that sounds good to me, too (and juice, I made Andrew go out and get the ingredients to make the Poly Lilikoi juice last week bc I was craving it LOL).
was very happy that Rory decided to take some stroller naps this trip - worked out well!
My doctor actually chastised me for eating too much fruit yesterday! I haven't gained that much weight this time around but he warned me against all the sugar. I'm not too concerned though, it is better than the doughnut sundaes I was eating when pregnant with Rory.
I texted Michael to let him know where we were, and he met us over there after Soarin’. We dragged Rory away from the playground by telling him we were going to see Mickey again
Michael asked the lifeguard if there was a height requirement for the slide and she told him that if we were comfortable with him going down, he could. Michael asked if they could go together, and she said no, it is only one at a time. Then she added, we didn’t hear it from her, but they could always do it one time and get told not to do it again from the lifeguard over by the slide, but at least they could do it one time.

Looks like fun! We did the Cars one, but didn't make it over to that one.so I took him over to the Monsters University playground that we had spotted earlier. He LOVED this!
Funny, we did the Visa meet twice this trip and it was Minnie & Pluto both times too.When we got in there, Rory said hello to Pluto and then to Minnie.
Smart kid! Reminds me of how Izzy yelled out, "Where's Pluto?" when we saw Disney Junior. They know if someone's missing!Then he started walking around looking for Mickey. It was so funny. Pluto and Minnie were just kind of looking at him, like what is he doing? So I explained to them that they thought Mickey was hiding behind the backdrop.
Sounds like fun! I wanted to do that slide, but we never ended up making it to the Boardwalk pools. Glad he got to do it a few times, but poor Rory having to leave the slide is no fun - I know what that's like.Well, no one said anything, so they ended up going down the slide 3 times.
Glad he took some great stroller naps. I'm surprised your doc said anything- there are so many worse foods to eat than fruit! Geez. And yes I had a doughnut yesterday I am planning on a banana cream pie to make this weekend, and made Andrew go out for Oreos last weekend. SO yes, don't feel bad about fruit! LMAO
I wish we'd had more time at the playground (and wish they were there year round!) they are so much fun.
Ugh I wish I had seen this before our BWV stay! Aria never got enough nerve to go down by herself She would have loved it with me though. Glad Rory did!
What a fun afternoon! We really need to make time to bring the kids swimming at the resorts- we always seem to be rushing from one thing to the next and it gets left out.
Can't wait to hear about the special dinner!
dangit! now I want a doughnut sundae! and not for nothing, but if the concern is "too much fruit" you are probably doing a good job! Reminds me of Judi's last pregnancy when she was going through peanut butter cups like they were going out of style and tried to convince me that it was a healthy option since it had protein (no mention of the chocolate surrounding said protein)
Glad they have that Monsters U playset. A big play area for kids to runaround in is one thing EPCOT doesn't really have ... actually, they could have just put a Frozen themed one in near Norway and called it a day rather than getting rid of Maestrom
Love that pictures ... "hey, I know you!"
Looks like a fun time at the pool - and love the advice from the life guard
It looks like you had so much fun!! I love the pictures of Rory meeting the characters! Way too cute The frushi looks delicious too! I've never had a chance to try it but it's definitely on my list, something that looks so pretty has to taste good too right?
I can just see him running to Minnie and that smile on his face, priceless.i think you have a thrill seeker in the making, big slide for on do little.
Rory's interactions with the characters are adorable. I love how he just ran right in there. The topiaries are amazing. Sounds like a fun time at the pool. What a great tip from the lifeguard!

Um, yeah, about that...so does just me for 5 minutes count? I got to go down the slide. Our BCV stay was a disaster from start to finish. At least we had a bit of pool/ocean time on the cruise.You made it to Stormalong Bay, right? If so, you didn't really miss much at the Boardwalk pool!
