Ok, that is funny... Maybe not to your mom though.It was around 9pm and my mom started getting antsy (especially since we had an 8th floor view of the airplanes coming in) so she knocked back some of the Brandy that we had packed for her in a flask. She also brought along some Portuguese Anise in an empty water bottle since she had no available flasks . She took a swig of that too. Poor mom! For those of you that don't know, my mom ABSOLUTELY HATES flying. So she needs all the help she can get, and that help happens to be in the form of a little alcohol
Subscribing! Great start :

Subbing.
Congratulations on your new addition. Your baby is adorable.
And congratulations on your DVC purchase and stay. What a nice long trip. Looking forward to hearing all about it.
I'm here!!
Following along! Your son is adorable by the way
Yay!! Great start. My mom is the same way about flying. Nothing helps her.
I'm here! And I even made the first page!
Staying near the airport sounds much better than getting up at 2:30am. Ewwww. Definitely worth it!
Can't wait to hear all about your trip!
I'm here and so excited to hear all about Calvin's first trip to WDW!
Hi, I'm going to sub. Your family is beautiful. Can't wait to hear more.
I'm here for the newest adventure! Can't wait to hear all about it
Subbing! What a cute baby boy you have!
I'm in! Love the pics of the baby and his daddy.

Yay yay yay!!! First update!!
I can't wait to hear about the trip.
Yay I am so excited to follow along on your trip! Got some updates on Facebook but looking forward to more
Can't wait to read all about your trip!
Hi, I'm following along with your report. I loved your cruise report (I'm taking a Wonder cruise in January) and I've been lurking on your pre-trip report for this trip to get ideas for a future trip to Disney with my two daughters. I love Christmas decorations so I'm excited to see your photos of this trip. Hopefully I can go see them in person too one day!
Ok, I'm interested. We did our first trip as parents last year (and second this year) so I'm interested in seeing how your experience went. We've never attempted anything near the scale of flying cross country to visit WDW with a 2 month old though!
Ok, that is funny... Maybe not to your mom though.
Whatever it takes to relax the nerves and get on the plane!
joining in
Welcome home! I"m all subbed and ready to see what's next for you! I usually drink before I fly, too, but not because I'm nervous, it's just how I like to start my vacation I hope your mom did ok.
So you had some pixie dust even before getting to WDW! An easy trip to the airport, no lines at security, and a smooth flight. Did your mom calm down once you were leveled off, or not until you landed in FL? That was really nice that they comped all those drinks for you guys
Joining.
Great view! Nothing like paying for standard and getting preferred Can't wait to read all about your first day - hope Grandma enjoys spending a little time with your DS and enjoys WDW with you both! What a beautiful family!
Yay, you've started
Too funny your mom knocking back the drinks to calm her nerves!
Your baby boy is such a cutie
Wow, great view from your room, looks like you really got some pixie dust
Hi! I was a lurker on your other trip reports, and I guess it's time to say hello!
Your son is so cute! Can't wait for more!
Your room looks awesome!
We stayed in Jambo during our time at AKL two years ago and liked the resort a lot. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it!
Yay you made it!
I bet you're glad you had a washer and dryer by the end of that trip with all the onesie changing! He's so adorable!!
That is some nice views! I bet it was relaxing out there.
Your mom is so funny with the drinks! My BIL is the same way, scared to death to fly!
Your room looks great! It's getting me excited for my trip in a little over a month. You probably got one of the "reclassified" rooms. The savanna view was not enough to satisfy guests so it was changed to a standard. I've seen a number of TRs where people lucked out on these standard view rooms!
Such cute pictures with Calvin!
Awesome view! The one-bedrooms at AKL are so beautiful.
Calvin is so cute with his little mittens. I miss the mitten stage.
