We got back to the room and cleaned up Adam and got him ready for the parks, we also made sure I didn't pull a repeat performance with our door
I wrote up my note for the other Dis board member (which I only could find Adam's crayons!) and grabbed some fall leaves to stick on their door too (I used masking tape that was old so it stuck enough but not enough to case any damage).
As I was walking to their room I saw some people standing outside the door and I almost chickened out and kept walking
but I'm glad I didn't! I met emt_pinky and her family and we talked briefly as we were trying to make RD and they had ADR's. They ended up in line behind us for the bus to MK so we got a little more of a chance to chat.
We missed RD by about 10 mins, I was really hoping we'd make it but no luck. Once we got into MK we took some pictures in front of the train station
(photopass) and found a shady spot to stop and put on sunscreen. I didn't realize where I sat our bags was wet and I mean wet! So the bottoms of our bags and some of the stuff inside got wet. Thankfully nothing important (diapers!) got wet.
As we were putting on sunscreen (which Adam hates!) the train pulled into the station so Adam starting chanting choo choo and pumping his arm, so we knew what our first ride would be. I have a feeling this will now be our new tradition (used to be a stop at Main Street Bakery and Wed Way). We rode one complete circle and then started heading up Main Street. Once again had some photopass pictures taken.
I wanted to get a silhouette done of Adam, this was very high on my to do list. My parents used to get them done of us as kids and I wanted to carry on that tradition. There was no one waiting so it seemed like a great time. Adam sat pretty good considering but I'm not really happy with it. I didn't have the nerve to tell the girl I didn't like it but I probably should have. I'll have to post a picture and see if you guys think I'm being picky or I have a valid reason.
We headed over to Tomorrowland and got FP's for Buzz, the wait time was only 15 mins but if we can avoid a wait, I'm all for it. The return time was an hour later so it gave us enough time to get some other stuff done. We rode Wed Way which is a family favorite and Adam enjoyed it. He was excited to see the sights especially the cars on the Tomorrowland Speedway.
We didn't think Adam would sit for COP and DH hates it, so we decided DH would take Adam to ride the speedway, my dad would take pictures and myself, mom and aunt would go to COP. The man in front of us must have been a first timer, he was laughing so hard at certain points. It was great to watch him. I think that's one thing that keeps rides from getting "old" to me is the other people who are on them and seeing their reactions (as long as they aren't flash takers!) We had perfect timing and finished up around the same time. Adam LOVED the Speedway, his favorite thing was making the car bang into the rails the whole time, he would just laugh and laugh and laugh. My DH said that ride alone made the trip worth every penny.
It was time to go on Buzz and I couldn't find our FP anywhere, I was starting to panic, thinking I lost them, then we thought DH had them so after looking in everything we had I found them in the stroller, whoops! Adam was kind of scared of Buzz and didn't really enjoy it, he didn't cry but he wanted to be held most of the time.
We gave Adam a snack and headed over to Toontown so Adam could run around. The little playground there was great for him! He was having so much fun just being around other kids and running around, not to mention how he could see the train from there. He would run around until the train pulled in the station then he would stop and watch it until it left then go back to playing.
I really wanted him to meet Mickey Mouse and we got in line to meet him they said the line was 20 mins which I thought was doable but it was getting close to lunch time and Adam didn't like just standing there so we ditched the line.
It was about 12:15 and we had ADR's for 1 at the Plaza Restaurant. We headed over in hopes of being taken early. Adam was getting to be tired and I knew food would hold him over until we got back to the hotel for his nap. They couldn't find our reservations when we checked in so I started to panic thinking the whole system mess with ADR's caused it to go bye bye. Thankfully I had my ADR #'s with my and they found it. Somehow it's under my mom's name. I have no idea how because I made the reservation under mine, but who cares! They were able to seat us pretty quickly.
The chef came out really quick to talk about Adam's meal. I have to admit after yesterday's pizza I was scared! Thankfully she was able to make him a grilled cheese out of good old Wonder bread! My DH is a picky eater and wasn't to thrilled with the menu, it looked like his only option was a burger. Thankfully our waitress started talking about the specials and one was meatloaf and mashed potatoes, his favorite! I had the club, parents had the strawberry chicken salad and Auntie had the tuna. Every one's food was great and Adam's sandwiches came out looking like Mickey! He ate so much, I think the poor kid was really hungry from his not so tasty waffle this morning!
DH and I are on the dining plan so our meal included dessert, I had the brownie sundae and he had a regular sundae. Adam's meal came with a sundae also (which they had allergy friendly cookies he could eat) but he didn't want it. The brownie sundae was really good and the pieces of brownies were huge!!
We were pretty tired so we changed Adam at baby care and headed back to the hotel to rest up for our Wishes cruise!
It was really no biggie, just had to be more careful, especially if Adam was sleeping in his stroller!
He was just in awe of it. So needless to say first order of business was a ride on the train!
Not only did I think we were not going to find anywhere to eat, I didn't want my parents to see Wishes considering we had a Wishes cruise booked for the following night and it was a surprise!
