Need help with planning days at WDW

[frannn]

You'd think after several trips, I'd have this down already, but it's first trip with DD, who'll be 1 yo. DH and I used to just park hop wherever and hop back for our PS. I am trying to find an "easy" approach to planning all I want to do without commando or overplanning. This is what I want to be sure to do so far:

CRT for breakfast on an EE day, rides, then breakfast;
Chef Mickey's dinner-probably on a Sat night;
Rainforest Cafe dinner on the day we go to AK;
Princess Storybook B'fast at Epcot;
Nine Dragons Lunch Sampler at Epcot;
Bring counter service dinner into theatre to eat during wait for Fantasmic;
Baskerville's buffett dinner;
Pepper Market;
Crystal Palace for Pooh or Grand Floridian (not sure which meal);
Trails End Buffett and Campfire;
Parades, but not sure which days have the late night ones
DTD, and offsite outlets
A few offsite meals

We will be going 10/10-10/20. We will probably get to WDW between 2-4 pm that Friday. On the 20th, we will leave too early to go to a park. We will have APs.

Where do I begin?

Well, this is the best I could come up with for a plan for your trip. I did this on the fly. Forgive me if I still run you guys around too much with this. I did try to incorporate all your desired events with the exception of not knowing the Spectromagic and FiTS fireworks schedules for October. I imagine that this might need a tweak or two as the info becomes available. There are no E-nites in October, but there is MNSSHP during your stay on October 10th, 14th, 16th, & 19th. I hope this is at least a little helpful. Mickey
