Beach Hoppin' With the Wigdout Gang! A super speedy trip report.

[__disneygirl]

OMG... BCV. Drooling over here! I'm hoping to rent points from someone (never did it before) for our Oct-Nov trip. Not the whole trip, b/c I know they won't have two weeks of availability during F&W, but we're resort hoppers anyway! We've never stayed at an Epcot resort and just thinking of being able to walk to Epcot makes me bounce in my chair with excitement!! I also reeeally wanna try BWV, I NEED that water view!! But most people seem to like BWV better. Maybe we'll do both. Enough of my rambling though LOL

BLT....LOVE the location. LOVE the views. But it left me a bit cold...it'll be interesting to hear what you think. My cousins LOVED it.

BCV forever.(insert a BCV gang sign here)

Right now we are at BLT for 2 nights and at OKW for 5. We are wait listed for Beach Club with a back up at Boardwalk.
So far nothing.
Can you say pout?
We were at BLT the whole time in a studio but HAD to switch to a 1br and they had none available. So OKW it was....
How's that for a story?

We've decided on a short trip at Christmas, the 19th through the 24th.

Ok, this bums me out...I'm missing you by 1 day I think in July and now by 2 days at Christmas.

That villa looks really nice. Great view!
Can't wait to hear baby news.

Good DVC waitlist roulette story. My cousins are DVC owners and often gift me with 3-4 nights in a DVC resort..We've played the waitlist game before....

Make sure to try the Top of the World Bar to view Wishes.

That view is gorgeous! What a perfect room location. You are making me drool. I really want to stay there now!

Congrats to Keeley!

I agree, just love Beach Club! It's so beautiful! The whole setup! The lobby, the pool, it's got it all!!
Keeley was quite excited today!

I'll take 801 if it is still free! So exciting about finding out about the new baby!!

I'm guessing you are getting a prince to go with your princess! Can't wait to here! I'll be back later to see the news!!

Hmmmm, Stephanie, that's another great guess! We have plenty of girl toys here for Harper and I have saved Baylor's stuff too, so we are set either way!

What are your Oct./Nov. dates? We'll be at BWV the end of Oct. beginning of Nov.! I know the Epcot resorts are really full then. We tried for Beach Club but they were full so we took BWV and that was months ago, waitlisted for part of it and it came through in just a couple of days.
Now if we could get a miracle for our July trip...

 

[wsushocker]

It was off to Epcot.....

A new stock pot for Wigd?

I think Rocky defected to Disney......this guy was hiding out in Morocco!


Baylor "helping" Jennifer pick a pearl......

​

We left Japan, went walking around World Showcase and came upon these characters who were just waiting to have their pictures taken with us!

And then we spotted Donald and Daisy looking for a shady, quiet place to relax....

We're not 100% sure yet cause my job is so unpredictable, but we're hoping for Oct 28-Nov 11. Even if we could get like ONE random night somewhere in there at BWV or BCV we'd be happy! It's hard to rent points b/c we usually have to book pretty close to when we leave and then there's nothing available If we can't get that we're hoping for some Swan/Dolphin availability just to be close to Epcot but of course we'd rather stay DVC. Hopefully some pixie dust will float our way!

I think she may be flashing gang signs![/CENTER]

The top sign is a "J" I was texting Jackie or Jen....

Next is a "M" for MeMom....

Last but not least is a "L" for Laura....


Baby news!

First and foremost we are thrilled that the baby appears to be healthy from what the sonogram can tell!

Also the baby was cooperative and happy to show us it's body parts!






































We have a boy!

I believe I told you this when you first found out.
I'm psychic like that.

No, not psycho...si-kick!

Glad to hear that he is healthy.
Has she chosen a name yet?

This will add even more to your shopping experience when you are there in July.

We need to pick up another Mine, Mine, Mine bib now, don't we?
Keeley will let him be a Disney baby, won't she?

Wishing her all the best.

 

[MeMom]

Next is a "M" for MeMom....

P.S. I am so happy this is not a gang symbol.
We were going to have to re-evaluate our Fourth of July plans if we had to dress 'gangsta'!

Replies in a minute but asking for help, with names....

She wants something different!
I've suggested "Tucker", isn't that cute?

 

[IluvXU]

Congrats on the grandson. Boys are different honestly Luke is a true blessing... and a momma's boy. Of all three kids getting him out of bed in the morning is the best.... smiles all the way. He and I are watching Toy Story... that is in your future!

I like Tucker, Austin, Luke, Bryce

I am totally honored to make the trip report via texting... I hope we have a view like that. Perhaps I can convince the girls that is the only pool-

 

[michellem1118]

Since baby names haven't been far from my thoughts lately...

here are some more unique boy names that I've come across... (some former students, some names I like... not telling which ones are which! )

Corbin
Harley
Layne
Forrest
Carter
Parker
Hunter
Camden
Luca (this one is VERY Italian, though... )

Also, many older, classic names are very uncommon right now... like Henry and Owen...

I'm kinda partial to Tucker.
