*Official* May 2010 Thread - CONGRATULATIONS!!!! It's May!

[momto3plus1angel]

Just did my online check in today!!

Everything is new to us as my mom hasn't been in almost 30 years, dh and I it's been almost 20 for both of us and the rest it's their first visit.

Our ADR's are for

Wed-Sanaa
Thurs-Akershurs
Fri-Marrakesh
Sat-1900 Park Fare
Sun-Hoop De Doo Revue
Mon-Garden Grill
Tues-T-Rex

We tried to alternate something the adults/big kids wanted to do with something the kids wanted to do. But it was hard as the adults are all big kids lol, we all got to choose a rest, garden grill is my choice.

Is it wrong that while I was doing our regular laundry yesterday, I had to fight the urge to start throwing stuff in the suitcase?



26 days, 26 days!!

Could you please remove me from the May list? We've had to postpone our trip as I've been put on bedrest.

Thanks!

I hope everyone has a great time next month!!

I am sorry that you have to be on bed-rest, but maybe you can use this as an opportunity to do even MORE extensive planning for the postponed trip, with a cute little addition to the fun

I'm so sorry to hear that you have been put on bedrest and had to postpone your trip. I will be praying that everything goes well and that, in the end, it will be worth it to see your wonderful bundle of joy!! My daughter-in-law is expecting her 2nd in Mid-July. It is always so exciting!! Keep your spirits up and keep your faith.

Heck no!! I've already started putting the beach towels and Disney throws for the car out in our sitting room. Our bags are also out and ready to pack. DH just called from work (working on a Sunday) and said that we should head down a day early and to see what I could do to make that happen! You don't have to ask me twice! Now to see if I can change our Rainforest Cafe ressies from Thursday afternoon to Wednesday night. If not ....oh well....we will still be there for a whole extra day!!

I pulled out the suitcases and started packing stuff we won't need this week - clothes we bought just for the trip, packed my park bag, toiletries we bought in sample sizes, etc.

So far I've got my park bag, two big suitcases we're checking, one small suitcase for "Things we'll need right away but not access to on the plane" like our big water bottles for taking to the park, my sweatshirt (which I assume I'll need wherever we eat dinner, I'm always freezing in air conditioned restaurants.) and stuff like that to carry-on to the plane. My DH is taking his laptop (he's a photo nerd and will fill up his memory card daily, more than likely) and my DD15 will have a backpack with her "keep busy at the airport/on the plane" bag. We CAN take another carryon suitcase or two, but I'm hoping to avoid having too much to carry. The ME will be so nice for our bigger suitcases.

Hoping to get most of our clothes packed by late this week - we have a local event going on Friday and Saturday, then Sunday we are leaving for the airport around noon, so my plan is to be totally packed by Thursday night.

I'm 34 and I've never been to Disney before so I'm SO excited!

My dh and I went to WDW for our honeymoon in 1996, but we didn't stay on site. We are staying at the Pop Resort with our 2 kids who are 6 and 10. They are so excited and I'm starting to get that way as well. This site is great for information.

 

[momto3plus1angel]

I'm about 1/2 packed now. We'll have 5 suitcases (the kids all wanted to take their own), 2 carryons, 1 being our park bag and 1 having plane stuff and warm weather clothes for when we get there, and a laptop. I'm starting to get nervous that it will be too much to carry since we're leaving at an insanely early hour. Hopefully my kids will be so excited that they will be awake enough to carry their own suitcases like they have promised to.

 

[PolynesianLily]

I need to start packing when I get home tomorrow. Well I go home tonight, so tomorrow being my full day home, I will spend getting ready and organizing things. We arn't getting the suitcases out until I clean the house though.

 

[MissLiz]

I have the bags all out and ready to be packed. I should be focusing on the fact that my MIL is coming to visit next week for DD's first birthday, but I'm more focused on WDW in 25 days!!!

I went out and did the dreaded swimsuit shopping yesterday. But it's done now, so I don't have to worry about it.

All we have left to get are little things that we don't want to buy yet anyway, like food.

 

[abitagirl916]

We have 27 days left, but my DD has packed beach towels, sunscreen, etc. I have pulled out the hanging garment bag, but can't pack it yet because we still need some of our clothes. I guess I can start packing things we know we won't wear to school/work. Starting buying snacks, etc. we will take along for our drive. Getting really excited!

 

[PolynesianLily]

it always becomes so exciting when you begin to say "this time next week...". Congratulations to you all on your upcoming trips. There are only 5 more days until May!! Where on earth did April go, I have no clue. Once I began to realize that we were getting closer and closer to the trip, I began to realize the amount of days left, such as 14 days. Now there are only 6 days left. I spent the majority of my day yesterday watching the flight I will be taking on Sunday fly from Toronto to Orlando. This airlines always has planes departing at the exact same time on the exact same days (such as Sunday).

 

[bellebookworm9]

21 days! Which is actually not a lot of time at all, but it feels like it's going to take forever.

 

[BluEyezNSC]

We finally hit the 30 day mark, so our household countdown can now begin! WooHoo!

 

[HdnMickeyGrl]

3 days left and we're hardly packed! Gotta do some packing tonight!

 

[Kristinluvsdisney]

6 more days!!! Cant believe its almost here. Sunday at this time we should already be at the resort!!

I am looking to cancel our FDP for Saturday (May 1). If anyone is interested in this ADR shoot me a PM and we can try to arrange a time for me to cancel.

Thanks!

PS - If anyone has a 2 person ressie for the Wishes Dessert Party for May 2, I will be happy to take it off of your hands
