Just when you thought you've seen all the MAGIC! **See Page 95 for PTR!!!!**

Here is a picture I took of the baby tonight. He was passed out.

Oh my....I am in love. My kids have to give me a granddaughter soon so that she can hook up with Christopher and we can have a Disney wedding.

 

[mommy2mrb]

I know... too bad it isn't going to be for a while though.

Juliana loves kindergarten!!!! When she came home today she played school for close to an hour!

Here is a picture I took of the baby tonight. He was passed out.

Cute, Megan used to do that all the time!
the little man is getting chunky, love the cheeks!

 

[that's nice]

You are too funny!

So much for an update.. I guess I am going to have to write it in small parts. I can barely keep my eyes open again.

Cute, Megan used to do that all the time!
the little man is getting chunky, love the cheeks!

His face has filled out. He is growing like a weed!

 

[petals]

I love how most of the pictures of Christopher he has something disney on him.. YOU WILL LIKE DISNEY!

 

[jenb1023]

Look at that chubby little face! Can't believe how big he is getting!

 

[dekkerdisneydreamer]

Awww, man. I thought you were on my side!

I was just kidding!! Of course I'm on your side. I am the mother of a 15 month old (Lord I can't believe it) and I'm lucky I have time at work to be able to get on the DIS boards.

Here is a picture I took of the baby tonight. He was passed out.

Super cute!! I just want to pinch his cheeks!! Not too hard, I promise.

 

[Moira222]

He is just so sweet Tim!

I am glad that Ana is loving K-garden. I remember Katie ALWAYS wanted play time after school. If I arrived "early" to pick her up from after care she would hide because she didn't want to leave yet!

Enjoy those smiling faces and that snuggly baby.....we love hearing about your trip & your family, but they come first!

Juliana spends all day in school and comes home to play school? Too funny!

Christopher is growing fast!

Get some sleep Tim. Enjoy this time with your growing family.

It felt that I had just closed my eyes when Melody woke me up. It was Friday March, 11th, Juliana's birthday! It was almost 7am and we started getting ready to go when there was a knock at the door. The girls wanted to wish Juliana Happy Birthday before they left to catch their bus to the MK for their breakfast ADR at Crystal Palace.

Juliana opened a gift from them and a few gifts from us- with no birthday card- then got ready to go! Originally, MK was scheduled to open at 9am but the opening changed to 8am. We had to get a move on to beat the crowds. The bus was packed getting to the MK- I guess we weren't the only people who heard about the change of time. Luckily, there was room for Juliana to sit. I'm not too sure what she was looking at?

I don't know how we did it but we arrived at MK at:

We even saw rope drop.... kinda- if you call walking towards security being there for rope drop.

It was a beautiful morning without a cloud in the sky. I thought there would have been more people waiting to get into the Kingdom but it was pretty empty. We started our walk up Main St.

Just a short recap. We were staying at POP with our friends from CT Bill, Jamie, and their 2 girls, Hannah & Lizzie. Our friends from Indiana Dave, Branda and their 2 kids, Victoria & Alex were staying at a house offsite with Dave's parents. We were also going to be meeting Melody's cousin & her 2 kids in the MK. She was running a few minutes late so we decided to stop for a quick bite to eat at Main St. Bakery. Oh the choices...

All I know was I needed to have a cinnamon bun. We also ended up with some fruit, cereal, and yogurt.

We were done eating and still waiting for Mel's cousin so we just stepped outside of the bakery and heard Clang, clang, clang, went the trolley. Ding, ding, ding, went the bell.....

We watched them dance for a few minutes then continued on to Fantasyland. We would just meet them there.

Ok Juliana, use your muscles!

Oh well, not this time.

I know how to cheer you up. How about seeing Pinocchio with no line?

Mel's cousin arrived just in time. We were about to get in line for Dumbo. If you call a 5 minute wait a line.

I can't wait to visit this..

Where was I... oh yea Dumbo. I even got to ride with Juliana!

Few construction shots..

 

[that's nice]

We continued though Fantasyland and hit every ride with a 10 minute or less wait.

Checking out the cue..

Juliana talked us into waiting in this line...

Juliana's cousin...

And her other cousin... I'm not too sure he knew what he was getting into with Juliana spinning that PINK cup!

What about the best ride in all of Magic Kingdom! I know some of you don't care for It's a Small World but {flame away} I like it.

Love these guys..

We couldn't leave Fantasyland without riding Cinderella's Carousel. Although I think Juliana was a little disappointed she couldn't ride on Cinderella's horse.

We did all of this before 10:30! It sure does pay to get to the park early!!!





Up Next.. A Birthday Surprise for the future Capt'n

 

[tinacaplan]

Oh, the joy of hitting MK first thing in the morning! You can ride everything in Fantasyland (twice!) before 11 a.m. Love it. Juliana always looks so happy in all the pictures. And it looks like you had gorgeous weather that day.

 

[mommy2mrb]

what a fun birthday! Juliana looks so excited and cute in her Cinderella dress!
love her wake up call!
how great not having to wait in lines!

 

[petals]

Yay an update. Good boy Christopher sleeping so daddy can do an update

Luvin it as well. So cool when wait times are that short.

 

[Stringbean&Wingnut]

Yay an update!!!

It really does pay off to get to MK first thing in the morning! Love those wait times!

 

[onelilspark]

Wow! I can't get over the difference between construction in March and now! They've really come a long way!

 

[dekkerdisneydreamer]

Hooray!! An update with tons of pictures of Ana! Was it perhaps cold that morning? Jackets and gloves being worn?

For short wait times through Fantasyland! I agree with everyone, getting to MK early is an absolute must to get in all the FL rides. You, I believe, are not alone in your admiration of IASW. How could anyone not love a true Disney original?

Can't wait to see the birthday surprise!!

 

[afwdwfan]

Wow, I log on this morning to find TR updates from Tim and Don both!!!

It was Friday March, 11th, Juliana's birthday!

Happy belated Birthday Juliana!

with no birthday card

Did she even notice it missing?

We even saw rope drop.... kinda- if you call walking towards security being there for rope drop.

If you were close enough to see it, I'd say it counts.

All I know was I needed to have a cinnamon bun. We also ended up with some fruit, cereal, and yogurt.

I understand the need for the cinnamon bun, but what's up with the healthy stuff???

We continued though Fantasyland and hit every ride with a 10 minute or less wait.

Wow! Great job getting there early!

What about the best ride in all of Magic Kingdom! I know some of you don't care for It's a Small World but {flame away} I like it.

Eh... I appreciate it for the nostalgia factor... but that song...

We did all of this before 10:30! It sure does pay to get to the park early!!!

Yeah, that's a fun filled morning!

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Hey, welcome back Tim! How come you didn't use my suggested ending?

We even saw rope drop.... kinda- if you call walking towards security being there for rope drop.

Eh...close enough.

All I know was I needed to have a cinnamon bun. We also ended up with some fruit, cereal, and yogurt.

Why? The cinnamon bun should service all of your needs. Breakfast of champions.

Mel's cousin arrived just in time. We were about to get in line for Dumbo. If you call a 5 minute wait a line.

And that's STILL longer than the ride itself.

We continued though Fantasyland and hit every ride with a 10 minute or less wait.

Impressive.

And her other cousin... I'm not too sure he knew what he was getting into with Juliana spinning that PINK cup!

Hopefully the cinnamon bun didn't make another appearance.

What about the best ride in all of Magic Kingdom! I know some of you don't care for It's a Small World but {flame away} I like it.

In ALL of the Magic Kingdom? Did they demolish all of the other rides?

We did all of this before 10:30! It sure does pay to get to the park early!!!

Nice work!

Up Next.. A Birthday Surprise for the future Capt'n

Ooooh...what did you get me?

 

[lbuzz52]

I love MK first thing in the morning! When the fastpasses are like 15 minutes away! I'm so glad that the kids are doing well and that Juliana had no problems adjusting to KK!

 

[KatMark]

I love this picture of everyone waking up Ana.

I don't know how we did it but we arrived at MK at:

GOOD JOB.

We even saw rope drop.... kinda- if you call walking towards security being there for rope drop.

I'll take one of each please.

Ok Juliana, use your muscles!

Maybe next time, Ana.

I know how to cheer you up. How about seeing Pinocchio with no line?

I herdly ever see Pinocchio out.

Where was I... oh yea Dumbo. I even got to ride with Juliana!

Mr. Mark's favorite ride.

We continued though Fantasyland and hit every ride with a 10 minute or less wait.

This is why I love rope drop...you can get so much done in Fantasyland before everyone gets there.

The most BEAUTIFUL Princess in all of Disney World.

And her other cousin... I'm not too sure he knew what he was getting into with Juliana spinning that PINK cup!

He doesn't look worried.

What about the best ride in all of Magic Kingdom! I know some of you don't care for It's a Small World but {flame away} I like it.

I won't flame, I just wish it was closed again this year when I am there.

We couldn't leave Fantasyland without riding Cinderella's Carousel. Although I think Juliana was a little disappointed she couldn't ride on Cinderella's horse.

She does not look like a very happy Princess here.


Up Next.. A Birthday Surprise for the future Capt'n

Great update by the new daddy. Looking forward to more (think you can get in one more before I leave next Thursday? ).
