If Alice or the Rabbit wanted to ride the tea cups with me, that may just actually get me on the ride for once! It sounds pathetic but I know Chris would spin me like crazy so I've never been on the tea cups with him!
The girls are so adorable getting their autographs. Bella is so cautious but it was so cute when she was talking to Alice
You can hold the wheel in the middle really tight and it won't spin.
Bella is very cautious. Getting braver, but still very cautious.
I really love the pictures of Bella with the characters, it's so cute that she keeps that distance after she hands them the book. I wonder how she will be on her next trip.
She talks a big talk right now, saying she
will see the characters.

She is more fond of some than others, so we'll see which ones she trusts enough to get near in just a few weeks.
Oh my goodness, MeMom..your last few updates have been so great! I love the rope drop pics of the MK. It's always an exciting time.
It must be so nice being a CM there! Okay, maybe not every day is so nice, but most of them!
I am so excited to see all of the construction finished! It will be crazy thinking of what was there.
Wow, that is a very empty Cosmic Rays! You don't see that too often!
I can hear the drumming as you enter into Adventureland now!
Just like with any job, I think we would all appreciate each other more if we spent some time in everyone else's jobs. We would probably be a more tolerant group seeing the reality that everyone else goes through daily.
Yeah, Ray's stays pretty busy throughout the day. I got in there to get water before anyone was hungry.
Beware as you enter Adventureland! You know there are pirates, hungry crocodiles, and spitting camels in there!
And birds.
Lots of birds.
Alice & the White Rabbit are two of my favorites!! Love them! My sister's name is Alice so we like to get a picture with the 2 Alices.
Abby, welcome!!!! You'll have a great time!! There's a company (I'll have to find the name) where you can rent a crib, toys, bath items, etc in Orlando & they'll deliver it to your resort, if you don't want to haul all that stuff down with you. We used it a few years ago for my cousin & it was great!!
Thanks for the advice for Abby.
I forgot that your sister's name is Alice. Cute picture to get.
Good morning! Yes, I had a great weekend with my boys. I am working today and then I am taking the day off tomorrow and it will be a "Mommy and Blake" day. He is so excited. I asked him what he wanted to do and he said that he wanted to play in the playroom. Oh well, I guess that will be a cheap and easy play day.
I love the pictures of the White Rabbit and Alice. I cannot ride the teacups. They make me so sick. Well, I finally have our December trip complete. We have flights booked, ADRs made, hotel at Universal booked and rental car reserved. We are staying one night at Universal to use unlimited express pass. I am taking Jason to Universal for some big boy rides. He has been really great with all my Disney trips. I have managed to talk him into December WDW, March
Disney cruise, June WDW trip, July Vero and WDW trip.
Enjoy this day with your special guy!
You have lots of Disney fun on your schedule. A trip for every season would be my perfect schedule!
Again, great pictures! I am a HUGE fan of everyone that lives in the Hundred Acre Wood, but somehow have never made it on Winnie the Pooh! I honestly don't even know how that's possible, but I'm making it a priority for next time! It looks too cute.
How fun that Alice and the White Rabbit were riding the Tea Cups! I bet Bella will love the characters eventually. Especially sine she's already warming up to them. I feel like since she's not crying when they're around, that's a good sign!
The new queue is very cute. If you are a fan of the story and the characters, you have to get yourself over there!
We are soon to see how much progress Bella has made in getting over her character fears. She sure did a great job at Epcot. I love seeing her face in those pictures and remembering the cheering Jill and I were doing in the background.
I love the teacups! Our goal on our last trip was to spin as fast as we could!!
Oooooo, not me!

That's Brooklynn, though. She loves to spin!
I forgot to post earlier, but "WELCOME ABBY"!! You will learn so much on the boards. It is great to take your little one to WDW. My youngest son was 22 months old his first trip. He loved it!!
And even if your little one doesn't remember it - YOU WILL.
Welcome Abby!!
Ok I will ride the biggest roller coaster but no spinning for me. No Teacups.
I love the way Bella kept her distance.

So cute!!
Ok I am supposed to be doing housework..
When you are finished with your housework, I still have some chores here leftover from the weekend. I mean, if you are interested.
I can take or leave the coasters now in my old age. I would like to do each one with Brooklynn, but usually I am the one who sits out with Bella, and I am fine with that, too.
Meg, if I go we can motivate each other I almost made it last year and the year before I missed the opening show by literally less than a minute. The train was leaving as I walked up
I almost gave myself a heart attack this morning because I forgot to turn back the clock in my car I turned the car on and thought I was gonna be an hour late for my psych test I had to laugh at myself after that
I babysat Caleb for a little while on Thursday and Friday. Jeremy didn't get home in time for Leslie to go to work so Caleb stayed at my house until Jeremy got home from work. On Friday he didn't want to leave when Jeremy came to pick him up We were having fun watching the Lion King and playing with toy dinosaurs and cars
Who would wanna leave Lion King, dinosaurs, and cars? Tell the 'rents to come back later. Too much fun happenin' here!
You've gotta see the opening show. It will make you smile really big.
I love the MK! My son talked me into riding the teacups with him last trip. I made it without getting too sick, and he loved it.
Brooklynn does look hot. We have never been in the summer, I don't know if I could take the heat. I'm glad they were able to get a yummy treat to help cool down.
In the summer, we do early mornings and get back to the room while the sun is at its highest point. We've stood in lines dripping with sweat before, so it is definitely better in the fall and winter.
MeMom do you have that Holidays Medley CD?? If you do not have it you can have one of mine. I bought the CD in May, & forgot I bought it & bought it again in Oct. Yup it must be the med's. That is my story & I'm sticking to it.
I do have it, but I think there is a scratch on a couple of songs. I don't want to take your good one, but if you wanted to make me a new copy, I would gladly pay for the CD and shipping.
I was planning to get more music in October, but I didn't see anything new out.
Welcome to Distown Abby! Mayor Memom runs a great little community.
I don't have advice for a trip with a little one (my girls were 6 for our first family trip.) Jill will be a great support for that (among others!) I am sure you will have a blast though!
You may need a more decisive person for a mayor.
With me as mayor, DIStown will need plenty of white picket fences for me to straddle all the time. I'll be standing up there making my
Pros and Cons lists all the time before jumping into any action.
More pictures soon, friends.
