I have used your site and the wonderful discussions contained here for our last two WDW family vacations, but decided it was finally time to join up and jump in. 
My wife and I have three children -- a 5yo son and twin 2yo girls.
My parents took me to WDW for the first time in August of 1972 (for my 6th birthday) and again in August of 1978 (for my 12th).
I didn't go again until the last days of 1988, when my father was refereeing the Citrus Bowl. My fiance' at the time (now my wife) was with me, and we were together in the MK for the fireworks on New Year's Eve (it was her very first WDW visit ever).
Fast-forward to parenthood (after many years of trying!) and we went to WDW twice last year with the kids -- in July with my parents along as well, and in November with just us (we were there for that record cold-snap!). We did the MVMCP in November.
We just made reservations for one more trip before the twins turn 3 and our cost goes up dramatically (and we likely start visiting less often) -- unless something happens to prevent it, we will be down there in September to celebrate both my son's and my wife's birthdays (his 6th and her... nah, I wouldn't do that!). Oh, we also plan to hit the MNSSHP this time.
I hope to make even better/more use of this site this time 'round, as a registered member.
