First trip planning

[halemommy10]

Need some advice on planning our first family disney vacation!
Our daughter will be 3 1/2 when when we are planning to do Disney.
We are trying to plan for November 2013.
So any help on the following will be appreciated! Thanks!

1. Where to stay? (liking the royal rooms)
2. Parades, special shows not to miss
3. Dining reservations not to miss

Where to stay depends on a lot of factors: budget, transportation preferences, theming, etc. My 2 cents- with a little one, try to stay as close to MK as possible to have easy access for breaks and naps.
You'll want to watch Wishes at least once during your visit. My girls love the Beauty and the Beast show at DHS and the FOTLK at AK.
Restaurants choices are so subjective, but for your DDs age I would make ADRs for CRT, BOG and CP.
Good luck and have a great time!
