I would say you definately need 2 days for Magic Kingdom. One day for Animal Kingdom unless you go to the early hours then you might be able to finish it by 3pm.

Epcot I would give a day and a half. Take your time in the countries, don't rush through them, there is a lot of neat things to do there.

And if you time and plan your shows right you could do MGM in a day.

Keep in mind:
1) It may be too cold for water park.
2) That's a WHOLE lot of theme parks to squeeze in. Make sure you take time to ENJOY the trip not just run from park to park. Better to be more selective, take your time, and breathe in the magic than feel rushed to "see it all"!

that being said, here's what I'd do:
1) arriving mid-day, eat a nice lunch (character meal maybe to get you in the mood) and do MK, stay for fireworks
2) AK
3) Epcot (be there in evening for Illuminations)
4) MGM
5) Universal (if you feel you need to get it in)
6) MK again (always my favorite way to start and end a trip!)
Above all, be flexible. When you're tired relax. Remember...its a VACATION!

The only thing that concerns me is your plan to arrive at the parks at 11 am. You should seriously consider taking advantage of the early extra magic hours, or at least getting to the parks at opening time. I'm not a morning person, but when at WDW we ALWAYS get up early and hit the parks when they open. It's amazing how much you can get done in those two short hours before the majority of crowds arrive. It's WELL worth it!
