Let's celebrate this "babymoon" GRAND style!! COMPLETED

[scottny]

Love T-Rex. Great food.

Seems like it was a great night.

 

[tinkgurl]

I have to try T-Rex sometime. It looks like a lot of fun. And I STILL haven't set foot in the GF. It's on my list though.

Shame that bride was having such a seemingly miserable day. It's tough to judge without knowing the circumstances, but seeing her complaining on two separate occasions makes me think it may be a regular thing.

You haven't been in the GF yet?! You better get over there! It's so beautiful!

I agree, we don't know why she was upset, so we can't judge her. But, it just seemed to me that she was not happy all day.

We've always had fabulous weather in October. Hot but not sweltering summer hot. Not a lot of rain like spring time. I love the Magic Kingdom decked out in orange and yellow. I also love the Halloween party. And the Food and Wine Festival is perfect for moms and dads who have a baby taking an afternoon nap in a stroller. Have I convinced you yet?

You don't have to say a lot to convince me to go to WDW! Ha!

And I always think of that episode at the Indiana Jones show too.

Looks like a great evening all around. I'm glad you enjoyed your dinner at T-Rex. Too bad the bus service was a little lacking at DTD, but at least it all worked out for you.

Yes!! She stands up and yells, "STEVE!" because she's seeing him everywhere. Hilarious!

You are the cutest pregnant lady! I love your baby bump

Going back to read all of your updates!

Aw, thanks girl!

All caught up!

DH and Little Guy are so cute! When I saw them on the Walkway to the MK holding hands I just melted! How cute! He's going to be such an amazing dad!

I also LOVED your maternity shirt with the tiny Mickey ears, hands, and feet. SO CUTE!

I ate at T-Rex in Kansas City for my bachelorette party and it is such a cool atmosphere. I think I like it even better than Rainforest Cafe because of the meteor shower lights that you see! I'm all for a good thunderstorm but if you find yourself sitting next to a money or gorilla expect a loud meal! LOL!

I love your baby stuff you bought! How precious! You're so close to your 3D/4D ultrasound! Are you going to get the pictures printed?

One question I have to ask you... How was Disney while pregnant? I mean, did you find yourself sad or depressed at all because you couldn't ride any of the big rides?

Can't wait to read more!

I didn't know that T-Rex was anywhere besides WDW! How fun!

I think I did alright at WDW while pregnant. It was definitely a slower trip for me. I had to sit down a lot and walk slower than everyone else. But, I didn't get sad at all about missing out on any of the rides. Honestly, it was nice to just sit and relax while they did most of the stuff. I think what also helped is that I know I'm going to be back at WDW again. I can always ride those rides next time!

We did get pictures printed from the ultrasound! I need to get them onto my computer!

Everytime I go to the GF I look to see if Uncle Jessie Is playing the piano.

I love the onesies, they are so cute. I need to check on Disneyshopping and see what they have for my new little nephew.

I always say, "There's where Uncle Jesse sat!" Ha!

My question is how can a bride be so crabby all day?! I mean first, you are getting married, and secondly you are getting married in DISNEY! It must suck to spend all your money on a disney wedding and hate it every second. I have never been to TREX from pictures I've seen it looks good. Maybe one day I will eat there.

Exactly! Getting married in Disney was always my dream!

Yikes, what could anyone find to yell about on at least two separate occasions on their wedding day at Disney?!?!?

Wow, T-Rex looks awesome - haven't been there and have heard mixed reviews, BUT I think it'd be worth it for the atmosphere alone! It's on my list!

I hope you get in to T-Rex sometime! It's better than RFC, in my opinion!

Made it over! I'm loving your TR! That Grand Villa is beautiful!

How cool that you got to dine at Be Our Guest! We couldn't get in in May, but hopefully next time we go we'll be able to!

Loving all your pictures!

Hi! I hope we see each other in each of our pictures! That would be funny!

Love T-Rex. Great food.

Seems like it was a great night.

Glad you like T-Rex too!

~May 24, 2013 – The girls and guys split up!~

*Life update: We had our 4 week check up with the baby doctor yesterday! We also had a 4D ultrasound! It was so amazing. We have decided he looks like DH from the nose up and from the nose down he looks like me. Everything is going well; his heartbeat sounds good and all of that! So now, I go back in 3 weeks, and then after that is every 2 weeks! I’m starting to get backaches and am tired a lot more often now. He is moving around a lot! We are in the 3rd trimester now and counting down! Here’s my June and July baby bumps:





Back to the trip…We woke up about 8 this morning. After we ate breakfast together in the room, the guys headed to the bus stop to AK while Mom and I went to the monorail to the MK. I think AK is the hottest park with the most walking, so I decided to skip out on going there for the day. And because of that, I have to apologize for having no pictures of their time at AK! But, they did get Little Guy on Dinosaur, which he didn’t really care for. Dad played games with him in Dinoland while Uncle and DH rode EE. Little Guy, however, LOVED the Safari! I knew he would because he loves animals and learning about them.

Meanwhile, Mom and I enjoyed some time together just the two of us. We decided to browse through the Emporium first.



Where I pretended to be MeMom for a slight second…







Those three shirts made me laugh!

Back outside, it was a beautiful morning:





There weren’t a lot of people in the park yet, so we just took our time enjoying wherever we walked to. We wanted to look in the Christmas shop in Liberty Square, but nothing in Liberty Square was open yet!



So, we walked through to Fantasyland and got these bad boys:



Another stop I wanted to make that day was in the New Fantasyland area, so we headed that way. It still amazes us how much different everything looks over there. It was weird not seeing Dumbo, that’s for sure!

I had some shopping to do! This CM greeted us with a cute little Beast:





This shop is so cute! And be sure to look at all of the details! Look what I found on one of the paintings hanging up:





It’s a map of the MK in that book! And there are a few other things on his desk representing some of our favorite characters.

After browsing through everything, I ended up buying this plate and coffee cup! I wanted the plate to go up next to my other Disney plates in my hutch. And I always have to buy a coffee cup at WDW and this one reminded me of Chip, so it was a keeper! Thanks to MeMom for letting me borrow this picture from her!!



We still had a few days left, so we just had that sent back to BLT. Happy with my purchase, we headed next door to ride “Ariel” as we decided to call the ride. It was just a 5 minute wait, so a walk on really!



We both just love that ride. It’s so cute! As we walked back past the Beauty and the Beast area, Gaston was out meeting people!



I had to take a picture of this Gaston because he was the one we saw on America’s Funniest Home Videos the night before we went to WDW! They were doing a special WDW episode in the new Fantasyland area! Talk about getting us excited for our trip!

We still had a few minutes before we could use our PP FP, so we decided to look in Sir Mickey’s and Castle Couture.





And they had these cookies in Castle Couture:



Okay, Ariel looks all cute, but Belle?!? I’m not liking her eyes!

We walked to PP laughing at those cookies. And soon we were here:



FP is seriously the only way I’ll ride PP these days. The stand-by line is ALWAYS long! And I have to admit, every time we rode this ride on the trip, I thought of Fantasyland Mom and her adorable kids!

Once we finally got going again and made it off the ride, we decided that we had worked up an appetite for lunch. Of course, I suggested we check out the wait for BoG. The line was just on the bridge, so we decided to go for it! I was so excited to be eating here again!







Once inside, you go to the right and stand by these guys:



You’re given a rose pager and then continue in the line to the next room, where you wait to be directed by a CM to a touch screen to place our order. After you place your order, you place the rose up to get scanned and away you go to your table! We both ended up ordering the Croque Monsieur Sandwich, which was basically a hot ham and cheese sandwich. It was the BEST hot ham and cheese sandwich I ever had!! I am definitely going to have that again!

**Continued in next post**​

 

[tinkgurl]

**Continued from previous**

The neat thing about these rose pagers is that you can sit anywhere you want. Since we hadn’t seen this room yet, we found a table right next to the music box:



This room is filled with beautiful paintings:





And soon, a CM wheeled out our food in one of the carts! After she set our food down and left, I told Mom, “I’ve decided I’m never leaving here. I’m going to live here in the Castle with Belle and the Beast!” Ha! Seriously, it is so beautiful in there! And there’s Beauty and the Beast music playing in the background. It was heaven for me! It was a really good meal and by far our favorite MK CS!

After taking our time enjoying our meal, we headed over to Storybook Circus to browse in the Big Tent!







Mom ended up buying some new antenna toppers for her car, and we got magnetic picture frames for her fridge, my fridge, and Uncle’s fridge! That is something we always buy every trip!

When we came out of the tent, we saw this guy performing:



It was too hot to stand and watch him, so we headed to our next destination: Fantasyland train station!







Take a ride with us to Frontierland…













Once in Frontierland, we decided to head back to Liberty Square and check out the Christmas shop!

~Up next: And at last, I see the light~​

What a great start in the MK! I love all the shopping pictures. I can't to someday see the new Fantasyland land for myself. Beauty and the Beast is our family's all time favorite. Since we're all brunettes we love Belle. Fingers crossed we get to have at least 1 meal in BOG even if it's lunch

I know I've said it before but you look so cute pregnant. Good luck making it through the rest of the summer.

 

[Miss Potts]

Love these updates! Sometimes it's nice to leisurely walk/shop/ride in the park!

I love the room in BOG! So cute! How long do you think your wait was on the bridge?
That sandwich sounds delish!

 

[Leshaface]

Sorry just got caught up!

Wow, can't believe how that bride was acting. You know she/her parents spent GOOD money on having a wedding there, and she acts up like that Unbelievable!

I think it's so cute that I have some of the things that you bought for your DS! We have that Mickey Mouse tshirt and the Lion King toy I'm sooooo excited to 'meet' your littlest guy (since little guy is taken )

And you look AMAZING! I love how much bigger he has gotten in one month. It's so crazy how they grow. Yup I remember the back pain all too well. It went away pretty much as soon as he was out.

 

[princess_momma]

You are absolutely adorable! I'm loving your belly pics!!

 

[klacey1]

Love the belly pics!! And of course Lady photobombing them all!

That's so nice that you and your mom were able to enjoy one on one time in the MK! I absolutely love that Beauty and the Beast gift shop. That plate is gorgeous!

 

[FancyNancy]

I love BOG for lunch. Last April I had the Braised Pork. Oh my god it was so good!

 

[wiigirl]

Awesome pics!

 

[MeMom]

I'd love to be riding a Magic Kingdom train right now.
Probably heading back to the front
to get to the bus stop
to go back to the room
to swim
and eat
and relax
and refresh
and be ready
to hit another park for the evening.

Great catch on that picture at Village Gifts with the park map and other goodies. I didn't notice that.

Our food at Be Our Guest was mediocre. The fries were cold, for one thing. We still enjoyed the building itself and having the castle experience. We sat at the first table over by the drink station in your picture, so I can very easily picture myself being there in your pictures.

 

[MagicShell]

I don't blame you for skipping out on AK, I would rather spend time in MK than anywhere! It sounds like you and your mom had a nice time shopping through the park.

 

[CtinaDitty]

I have been trying and trying to make a ADR at BOG but I think I'll just have to have lunch there and wait in line. Just hope my sister's baby sleeps through it all and that my parents don't get... well... as impatient as they seem to when things don't go their way!

Loving your TR! I'm so excited about your ultrasound! I bet it was so neat to see a 4D image of your little prince!

Can't wait to read more!

 

[afwdwfan]

I have to say that it seems like you made a wise decision to go to MK instead of AK, especially after just getting a wheelchair due to some discomfort. AK would have been brutal. I remember DW hated that park when we went there and she was pregnant. And weren't even there past about noon.

I have to agree with you about the Belle cookie. She actually looks kind of cross eyed.

The new Fantasyland area is amazing! I hope you eat at BOG, even it's lunch. Just be sure to get in line early!

Thanks! The A/C is my best friend!

Hi! I hope you're doing better!

That's so funny we have some of the same things! Guess we have similar likes!

Thanks. You're right, he has gotten bigger in the month!

You are absolutely adorable! I'm loving your belly pics!!

Haha, sounds like you know exactly what you'd be doing if you were there!

Thanks for letting me use that picture again!

Aw, that's too bad about your food.

I don't blame you for skipping out on AK, I would rather spend time in MK than anywhere! It sounds like you and your mom had a nice time shopping through the park.

It was fun! The MK is my favorite, so I took any chance I could to go there!

Yeah, it was nice to have a day to relax in the MK.

Yes she does!

Good call on PP FPs, I too will never ride standby in that never-ending line! I'm so excited for BoG - the pictures I've seen on everyone's TRs are amazing!

Your belly pics are great - can't believe you're already in your 3rd trimester!

 

[scottny]

I want that plate setting. I just find it so pretty.
I cannot remember the last time I rode Peter Pan but I agree about the FP.
I want to try that sandwich when I eat at BOG.
Thanks for the train ride. Wish I was doing that now.

 

[AGPrincess]

Subbing! I love hearing about the Grand Villa and all the Contemporary pics! I didn't even know that the pool bars had frozen lemonade...sounds so good, now I want to try that next time. And that picture of Little Guy in front of T-Rex is too perfect!

That line really does seem never-ending!

I can't believe I'm in 3rd trimester already either!

I found a gold easel to prop the plate up, and it looks perfect!

I hope you try that sandwich. It was so good!

Yay girl! So glad you're here!
