Hi!
So this is going to be a different kind of food review report. We live about 30 minutes away from Disney (in a suburb of Orlando) and have annual passes (well I have an annual and my husband has a seasonal and the kiddo doesn't need one) and we pop over to Disney every other Friday during seasonal dates! And more frequently during food and wine!

Me - I'm a stay-at-home mommy most of the time who does software consulting to a big defense company for vacation (and savings boo!) money. I've always liked Disney and visited a lot as a kid growing up in SW Florida. My family either took day trips or stayed at Fort Wilderness. I'm fairly crafty and I think I'm super hilarious. I'm trying to shed my pregnancy weight but Disney calories don't count right! It just adds to the excitement of heading over to WDW property. My favorite park is Magic Kingdom because there's nothing I don't throughly enjoy in that park.
My eating habits include lots of sweets and a serious love of shellfish. I have been on a sushi kick ever since the birth of my daughter. I ate sushi for every meal but breakfast for a week (and breakfast was always a tall coffee!) for the 2 weeks we were in the hospital following her birth. My favorite restaurant at WDW is California Grill. My least favorite restaurant is the Sci-Fi dinner. I don't like a lot of fried foods. Also, watching small children eat grosses me out. and sometimes gives me the heaves. I'm working on it.
Mr. Incredible - my husband. He is my own personal Mr. Incredible without the hair. He works for the same defense company that I consult for (although we met through mutual friends) and is very brilliant. He's also very understanding, likes to have everything neat and organized (a touch OCD), and generally likes everything I suggest. He would probably say that I am his Mrs. Incredible. He didn't like Disney when we met (something about a bad experience at MVMCP with his sister in their teens) but wanted to go on a Disney cruise for his 25th birthday (he heard they were the cleanest). He then changed his mind about Disney (I think part of it was the food) and actually MISSED it when our passes lapsed.
When we met he would eat nothing but junk (chicken fingers, taco bell) but when we started dating I would offer him some of my plate and I think he ate it to be polite but really started liking food! I take credit for introducing him to all kinds of things but he still won't eat plain sour cream (has to be hidden), delicious smelly cheeses, or raw fish sushi. His favorite restaurant is Artist Point (he loves buffalo meat) and his least favorite is Raglan Road.
Roo - my baby. Roo is 5 months old at the beginning of our adventures (March 2011) and is very small for her age. She was born 3 lbs, 9 oz and even though she grows on the correct curve she's in the 5th percentile for weight and the 25th percentile for height so she's still itty bitty! She's very bright and interested in things. She's usually very smiley but at Disney that goes out the window because she is so intense about the different things we are seeing! I'm lucky because she very rarely cries at WDW, so far just at Basin (intense smells) and on the harder changing tables. You may see me slip up in my recaps and call her Buddha, which is the other nickname due to her fantastic belly. Her nickname of Roo came early on in the NICU because she looooved Kangaroo time.
Roo just started solids and her favorite foods are oatmeal and applesauce. She does not like peaches. I think in a couple of months she'll start eating off our plates? She's my first kid so I'm not really sure how that works any advice is appreciated!
Our eating adventures begin March 3, 2011 and will go until the end of the year so stay tuned all year long!
