15 Days till Disney! First Trip for Daughter!

[MaryMichelotti]

Taking my 11 month old for her first trip. My husband and I went for our first time for our honeymoon and have been there a short four day trip since. I'm excited to take it easy and enjoy a nice long trip in Disney.

We arrive April 9th. Here is our plan which can be scrapped at anytime depending on DD's scedule:

Saturday April 9- Get rental car, go grocery shopping (diapers, cereal, milk), arrival at CBR, No Park today, pool time. Dinner at Shutters.

Sunday April 10 – Magic Kingdom
This will be our Fantasy Land day. Have am fast passes for Mine Train (for parents), Winnie the Pooh, & Peter Pan

Other priority rides: Small World, Dumbo, Carousel

Lunch at 10:55 at Be Our Guest

After lunch go back to resort for nap and possibly return in evening for Electric Parade and Wishes (have headphones for baby)

Not sure what I'm doing for dinner that day, I didn't realize at first that BOG was quick service for lunch.

Monday April 11 - Rest Day
Breakfast at Ohana's. Rest of day is free to enjoy CBR's amenities.

Tuesday April 12- Magic Kingdom
Have AM fastpasses for: Buzz Lightyear, Pirates, and Jungle Cruise.


Plan to leave park early for nap because we have to be back at 4:00 for haircut

4:00 - First Haircut at Harmony Barbershop

5:30 - Dinner at Crystal Palace

Wednesday April 13 - Epcot

I wasn't even sure what to Fastpass here, but did Finding Nemo, Turtle Talk, & Illuminations

San Angel Inn for a late dinner (I want to enjoy a margarita by the volcano), hopefully will make it to Illuminations (otherwise I hear we can view from our resort)

I hope to meet Jasmine in Morroco (I got a cute Jasmine costume for DD) and also Donald in Mexico this day.

Thursday April 14 - Rest Day

Breakfast at Cape May Cafe

Visiting with relatives possibly in Disney Springs, any recommendations for where to meet?

Friday April 15th - Animal Kingdom

Fastpasses for Safari, Expedition Everest & Lion King

Lunch at Rainforest Cafe

Saturday April 16th - Undecided

We were given a fifth day as a bonus and I am unsure what park I want to go to that day.

Sunday April 17th - Departure
Boo!


Getting really excited!

Sounds great! We ended up doing an extra day at MK with our bonus day. Our kids prefer it over the other parks. Plus it's a nice way to end a trip.

Disney Springs House of Blues and Raglan Road are fun. Our little ones prefer RainforestCafe or Trex.

I second MK for the last day. It always feels nicer to end the trip there. Be prepared for the possible let down of your DD not liking characters too, I know my daughter would be ok up until they got close for a hug or picture, then it was freak-out central. She wasn't as frightened by face characters though. Looks like you are taking plenty of breaks so that should help tons to keep you stress-free. Have a good trip!
