I think your plans look great!! Its looks like you have lots of buffets, with a few special meals thrown in. I always suggest buffet dining with small children, that way if someone has to take the kiddo out of the restaurant and entertain them, no one has to eat cold food. I'm all about maximizing eating hot food, because, lets face it, it doesn't happen too often when you are a mom!
I also want to share our experiences with Fantasmic and Everett. We took him for the first time at 4 months and then at 6 months. We skipped it at 10 months because I wasn't sure he'd sit through it. Fantasmic is REALLY loud! I don't think I realized it before I had kids, but if Seth is sensitive to loud noises, you'd be better off sitting towards the back. Also be sure to cover his ears during the Pocahontas part right before they start digging for gold, because there is a SUPER loud cannon shot. I kinda forgot about that, but a college program CM was sitting next to me, and he gave me the heads up before it happened!
It looks like you are going in with lots of flexibility, which is great, because we all know how quickly things can change with babies. Their preferences, their schedule, what they will and will not eat can change pretty drastically month by month. I found that traveling with Everett made me tweak my itinerary even more than I usually did (and I'm usually pretty fond of tinkering with the plan!)

Some really good restaurants in there. A couple I love and a couple I want to try. So, looks good.
I see you're trying to work around Seth's schedule. I hope he's still on the same routine when you go, so that you can predict when he's going to want to eat/sleep. With our kids, just when they got into a routine....they'd change it up.

GREAT dining choices! I loved Cape May Cafe.. sadly we are not going there this time because my Dad wouldn't like it. He's too picky. But many of the ones you chose are my favorites! ....Crystal Palace, Boma!!
I am like you.. I like things to be PLANNED but my parents are going this time and I don't want to be to structure and crazy. Plus, I'm taking into account that they are older and not super in shape- so I have to leave time to be FREE. But it drives me nutso! The first day that we are in Disney- we aren't visiting the parks and we vowed it a "free day" but I've noticed I'm still trying to plan things like dining and where we will go.. instead of playing it by ear. hehe

Seth is absolutely adorable and I love that little laugh...I can't help but laugh too!
Your ADRs look awesome! I love Boma, and we have never done 1900 PF for breakfast (only dinner, once), but I really, really want to try the breakfast. I have always wanted to try Kona, too. So excited you get to make the ADRs tomorrow!

Busy, busy today, but I wanted to let you know what happened with the ADRs this morning.
First of all, I couldn't make them all. Because our VWL ressie is seperate from Pop, they are considered two separate reservations and I have to call back on Tuesday to make the ressies for October 2nd, forward. But I got what I wanted for the Pop portion of our trip:
9/30 - Boma @ 5:55pm
10/1 - Kouzzina @ 5:00pm
10/2 - Cape May Cafe @ 10:05am
10/2 - Fantasmic! Dining Package at Mama Melrose @ 3:55pm
I'm not crazy about the Mama Melrose time but the latest you can get a F! package reservation is 5:00, and 3:55 was the latest they had available, so I took it. It beats sitting in the amphitheater for (at least) an hour with a 1-year-old!
I'll call back Tuesday morning to get the rest, none of which I'm really concerned I won't get. The F! package was the only one I was the least bit worried about.
Yay.....we're officially 6 months out!!!!! 6 months from this very moment I'll probably be enjoying WL and getting ready to head to DHS for our dinner before seeing Fantasmic!

Hurray for being just six months away from your trip!!! 
The ADRs you were able to make look great -- you know how I feel about Boma, and I am looking forward to your review of Kouzzina!

Congratulations! You have some great choices.
I wish the Fantasmic packages were a little later in the evening as well. We got one this summer for a late lunch at 1:30.
Good luck on Tuesday with the rest of your choices.
