I said I wasn't going to do this but.. I want to make some plans.. HELP PLEASE!

Did you say your doing CL? I would cancel DDP at $150 a day, I personally don't think it's worth it. Especially when you have CL and the Swan/Dolphin doesn't honour anyway.

I like your choices I'm in

I agree with this- if you're doing CL. However if you do DDP I would choose all restaurants that take it.
Is tomorrow 180 days? I haven't done the calculations yet? I guess I should have figured that out by now but I knew you were going the same week as me.
I do however like your choices

YES, totally is 180.. I tried online and there was a glitch.. I ended up calling and the automated system was telling me that I couldn't book yet.. Thank God I waited for the CM. It told her the same thing but all her information showed that i could book today.. She put me on hold came back and told me there was a new button they had to press or something.. I didn't care what she did as long as I could book today.. PHEWWWWW..
Also, I booked my first ressie online for Ohana.. and then when I went to have her check it for me.. It wasn't there.. Again, so glad that asked..
I got everything that I wanted..
I booked only 6 restaurants.. But, 2 are signature.. So, I fgured the others we would just pay OOP..
Here is what I have..
Ohana
La Hacienda
Via Napoli
Flying Fish
Citricos
Chef Mickey's..
Also, I did not have to put down a credit card to secure the 2 signatures.. I booked Ohana the first night because there are EMH at MK and we always like to do MK our first night.. I figured with a 7:00pm ressie we could still have a full night at MK with it closing at 1:00am

Also, I was thinking of only doing CL if I got a discount on my room.. In that case I would more than likely cancel the signature dining and just keep the few staples that we love and then NOT do the dining plan..

Whop whop

We've never done any of those except Ohana. That for us one year was AWESOME and one year lukewarm on our experience. Hope it's ALL good for you. At the very least... Your in Disney and your not doing the dishes

Wow that's awesome!
My DSs could never go until 1:00 I don't think they'd even make it til 11:00. By the time Wishes is over they are beat. And we don't even do commando touring.
Be aware though the MK is packed for night EMH. DH and I did night EMH at MK for our anniversary trip (no kids), and we swore we would never do it again we ended up leaving early. So that extra time sometimes is not always worth it. You'll have to let me know what you think when you get back.
We weren't sure if we were gonna tell DS10 that we were going in April and surprise him but I ended up telling him last night. I was getting a little nervous that my DSs were getting sick of going since we go every year, but he was excited- his face lit up!! Phew!!

MY DS is like a 22 year old man.. LOL.. He rather sleep in late and stay up late.. So, we will see how it goes.. LOL I am an early bird and a late bird.. So, I told hubby I plan on getting up early getting our place at SAB on the days we aren't touring, taking my coffee (and maybe my IPAD now that there is free wi-fi) and get my place at the pool and wait for the boys to get up.. Thats why NO breakfasts this time..
