Wow! Hats off to you for being able to accomplish so much with a toddler! My son was not so cooperative when he was that age in the parks. So we missed alot on some of those early trips.
Love the pics in the Tower of Terror and the photo session with Lightening McQueen! DS is so cute! Also love the Muppet photos. My parents and I are huge Muppets 3D fans!
I hope you all got to catch Fantasmic (fingers crossed). I'll have to wait and find out!
It's hard because all kids are SO different! And so different from trip to trip, even, so we never really know what to expect. We have been so blessed with how cooperative DS is most of the time, that I am fully preparing myself for eventual baby #2 to be the complete opposite!!
Hopefully I won't have to leave everyone in suspense for too long, I'm really trying to get this TR done or mostly done before we leave for Italy.
Fantastic update and great pics...especially those on ToT! I could never take those pics...I'm using both hands to hold on!!
offtopic: Not a bad start for the Who Dat boys!

Thanks, Bill! I have to say, I was pretty surprised DH went for the pics because in the past he has been nervous about keeping the camera out on thrill rides. He has gotten a little more adventurous lately!
I know! Hopefully it's a sure sign of things to come this season. We were really bummed that we weren't able to watch because they didn't air it here (we get totally shunned during pre-season since we have satellite), but it was nice to see that final score online later.
How the heck did he get those pictures in the Muppets. Please share the secret of getting a good 3D movie picture. Did he put glasses on the camera? Seriously? I must know.
Love the ToT pictures and the excellent RnR pic!
Paxton is just TOO cute during his Cars photoshoot. He is really hamming it up for the camera. Love it!
Sounds like a great days sans the apple meltdown.
OMG - I can only imagine how packed that communion mass was.
Great updates!
YES! That's exactly what he did!!
He was definitely getting as many on-ride photos as he could, probably to make up for the lack of outdoor pics thanks to the torrential rain most of the day.
He is SUCH a little ham, isn't he?! He loves an audience! I was surprised the meltdown was as late in the day as it ended up being, considering our long travel days and less than stellar night of sleep.
It was NUTS!!! We were parked SO far, and it was absolutely packed when we got there but at least we were able to get a seat. That's the risk you take going to a local church, though, instead of the Basilica.
What a fun time at DHS! Maybe I'll finally give the Muppets another shot - good to hear that Paxton kept his glasses on the whole time! Yes, hotel room naps are tough. We usually have to go out to the patio or something like that until Aria falls asleep - it's partly why I've moved to mainly stroller naps.
I'm thinking about doing Pizza Planet on our upcoming trip, I like the theme and we both love pizza, even awful pizza LOL. What's it like upstairs?
Glad you got to ride RnRC! That was a great use of the 4th FP, since it is in Tier 1 and with TSMM I feel like I'll never get another RnRC FP again! but that is good to know. Maybe Dugette and I can try for that when we meet up at the end of the month. SR line is very hit or miss there.
That is cute about the kid on his first ride of RnRC! It's so neat thinking ahead to our kid's first rides on various things. I seem to always get newbies on EE, single people who just stood in the whole line while I got on in 3 minutes from the SR line. I always feel awful!
Anyway - I need to find a thin rain jacket for Aria. That is a good idea.
We probably should have gone out onto the patio, but we both wanted to try to catch a little sleep to. He was a beast! Took forever for him to get his sillies out and settle down, so it was definitely not the restful afternoon we had been counting on.
It's great upstairs, because there is plenty of seating, and you are separated from the chaos of the games and arcade environment. Usually we don't have any problems with the pizza there, but it was just not on point that day for some reason.
Our backup plan was SR, but I hate to depend on that because I have been burned before and ended up waiting SO long! So it was really great that we were able to get that 4th FP+ and get to experience both Tier 1 attractions we enjoy without a lot of wait.
I think we got the rain jacket from Wal Mart? It's a kid's size, so while it was super long in the sleeves and had to be rolled, it was nice and long in length too so it covered most of him like a poncho would.
DH's pics of MuppetVision came out so great!
DS with Lightning McQueen and Mater is so cute!!!
Oh no, I hope you still got to see Fantasmic!
Thanks! He was pretty excited with how they came out too.
He's a ham, that's for sure.
Hopefully I won't have to drag on the suspense for too much longer!
I've never taken pics on ToT so I appreciate yours! So clear, feel like I'm on the ride.
AND YAY FANTASMIC. I'm loving the reports, keep em coming!
Thanks! DH had never attempted it before either, I don't think, and I was so excited when I saw them. It does feel like you're on the ride!
Thanks so much, I'm glad you're enjoying it! Hopefully I can get another update up soon!!
I am enjoying your TR. We live in Pascagoula, MS so you passed us along I-10 on your way to P'Cola. We were also in the world May 2-9. So our first two days were rain, too. We were at Jambo. I love WL and would love to stay there. We also drive two hours west to fly SW out of New Orleans. 
I hope it lets up for Fantasmic! 
Had no idea if it would work or not, but it did!
I always feel kind of cheated if I walk in there and the pre-show is already half over or something. 
Oh, I hope not! The only thing worse than fighting the masses into and out of that theater would be to do so for a show that is rained out.
