Can you imagine JUST standing there holding a banner? I would probably look bored and impatient.But they look so happy!
Oh my gosh, me too!

I do have a link to my January TR in my signature, but it doesn't work anymore for some reason. Even when I search for my title, nothing comes up. 
It's pretty upsetting.

In response to your "I just don't have certain females parts that move when most woman jump", don't feel bad! You probably don't have as little as you think. When I was preg with DS4, they got so big, I had to move them out of the way to lay on the couch! And I had never had very big ones before that, and I thought that I'd like it, but I really didn't. 
After I had DS4, the weight came off very quickly, as did everything else, meaning those female moving parts. I was very glad! Now, in the last two years, I've managed to gain about fifteen pounds with very little effort! Age, I guess. I turned 30 in June, so I figured my time of being thin without trying was coming to an end! And guess what? They're baa-ack! I hate them. So enjoy it and embrace it! 
Now, on to your TR. I loved the pictures of the parade. Hmmm, I haven't seen the daytime one yet. I may have to check it out! Love the picture of the CM with Landon. That's always so fun for them. Too funny about Jafar! I love the interaction between them and the guests.
Yay! Genie showed up to get the best pics ever! Landon. Yep, he's a boy all right! Checking out the "girls". Hee, hee.
The story about the boy being scared of Splash is hilarious. I couldn't help but laugh at his statement that they weren't coming out alive.
The picture of sleeping Landon is so precious. And you're right, I said "AWWWW" right before I scrolled down to see that we were all supposed to say it "together". Oh, well!
One more comment, your jumping pics are just too adorable. I hate that your hair got in your face b/c I loved the one where all your limbs are splayed out. But that darn braid got in the way! The last one was cute, too! You need to have one of those framed for your parents. I think you may have just started a tradition. Won't that be fun for you and Landon to do when he gets big enough to jump up? Now THOSE pics, I can't wait to see!

Landon is such a flirt. He even "pretends" to be shy because he knows it scores big! Like he'll stare at someone and then smile all big and look away like he's shy and then slowly look back while the helpless girls just fawn over him!
Must be the princess blood running through my veins that put the crazy idea of castle-dwelling in my veins!! I'll let Disney know we're moving in asap!!

Is this it?? I was just looking at your ptr for that trip and they're together. Maybe a mod just merged them together?
I'm going to go read it!In response to your "I just don't have certain females parts that move when most woman jump", don't feel bad! You probably don't have as little as you think. When I was preg with DS4, they got so big, I had to move them out of the way to lay on the couch!

I am mostly grateful that I don't have them to get in my way!! We'll see if they ever come. I got so sad when I was pregnant when I would see like 15 year old girls with bigger ****s than me!!
Now, on to your TR. I loved the pictures of the parade. Hmmm, I haven't seen the daytime one yet. I may have to check it out! Love the picture of the CM with Landon. That's always so fun for them. Too funny about Jafar!
Villains have some of the best interaction!
Yay! Genie showed up to get the best pics ever! Landon.
Little boys are the best though. (I'm a little biased...)
The story about the boy being scared of Splash is hilarious. I couldn't help but laugh at his statement that they weren't coming out alive.
That guy was a riot!! It would've been so much less funny if he were like 7...but he was just a few years younger than me!!
The picture of sleeping Landon is so precious. And you're right, I said "AWWWW" right before I scrolled down to see that we were all supposed to say it "together". Oh, well!
Oh darn!! Oh well, at least ya said it!

I know, my braids kept getting in my face. Note to self: Don't wear braids for jumping pics!! I think that sounds like a lovely tradition. I got a little teary-eyed thinking about Landon being big enough to jump! I always do when I think about him growing up!

Yep! Little boys are the best! And they REALLY love their mommas, which is even better. Enjoy your baby, and it sounds like you do. 
And treasure every moment, too, because they grow up really fast!

He sure does love me!! It just melts my heart how much you can tell. Its so humbling though, the way a child loves you so much and so unconditionally. I definitely don't feel like I deserve it all the time!! I treasure it all!!

Before I continue, I forgot to add that on our way out of Adventureland, we ran into this cute little place and took some pics.
Ok, I left off this morning with the accidentally on-purpose incident. (And I wish Flaunteroy had been on to guess!)
The reason it was accidentally on-purpose was because I had ever intention to do it and then I forgot but ran into it anyway.
You see, this day happened to be September 11th. Now Im a HUGELY patriotic person. All political parties and conversations aside, I do just love America. Thinking about 9/11 still makes me tear up and I remember exactly what I was doing and how I felt that day. So I wanted to attend the flag ceremony.
I had read on the Dis that last year, people had asked around their hotel if they were doing anything special for it and no one really knew but said to check the Magic Kingdom. I had checked during the parade (during all the waiting) and 3 different CMs didnt know but one said if they were doing anything, itd be at the flag ceremony. (Which Id figured anyway.)
But after Adventureland and jumping castle pics, I forgot. We were all hot and tired and headed out of the park. Well, the time we left was seriously like 5 minutes before the flag ceremony and we ran right into the crowd waiting for that. (See? Accidentally on purpose!)
Now, I have never seen a flag ceremony so I dont know if this one was *extra* big or patriotic. It seemed that way to me.
They had the Main Street Marching Band and the Dapper Dans and some girls leading the pledge. They played a bunch of songs and it did seem BIG and patriotic to me. But I have no idea how big or little the flag ceremony ever is.
My disappointment was that there was no mention of 9/11. They made a big deal of this one guy who was the veteran of the day. And please understand, I am so grateful for everyone who has been in the military, I have 5 friends deployed right now. But they didnt make any mention of the lives that were lost 8 years ago that day. That made me a little sad.
I hope none of you guys get mad at me for anything in this post!! And if anyone has ever seen another normal flag ceremony, can you please let me know how this one compared?
Anyway, after that, we went home and showered. It was nice. Then we headed over to the YACHT CLUB!!!!! Love this resort!! Its so beautiful!! I love the nautical classiness it has. We had dinner ressies at Captains Grill. (I kept confusing my parents and saying California Grill, where we had dinner the night before! All these C-grills! Lol!)
The wait for dinner wasnt bad but it was kind of weird. Like first our buzzer went off and it was just saying the battery was low or something? And she didnt even get us a new one but put it back in the holder thing and then gave it back. And then it went off again and our hostess sitting us just disappeared and we had to wait again like 2 minutes, just up at the podium. It wasnt a long wait, but 2 other families got seated and they didnt know where our hostess went. Oh well!!
Heres the gorgeous inside (no flash, so as to no disturb the other patrons!)
Landon had a blast during this meal. He was just in a good mood. He made friends with this nice, older fellow sitting behind us. He kept staring at him, relentlessly! I get so embarrassed. I mean its one thing when he just keeps looking A LOT but he was just full on staring and we couldnt get his attention even. He wouldnt budge! But then he found a straw. He LOVES straws. Silly boy.
I dont think any of us got an appetizer. None of them sounded too good. But for entrees, Grammy got the ribeye.
It was GROSS!! It was super chewy. I had one bite and couldnt even choke it down.
Pop Pop got the NY strip which was MUCH better.
It was super delicious. I enjoyed the part he was willing to share.
And my entrée was one I was very much looking forward to. It was the whole reason Id booked this place SNOW CRAB LEGS!!
This whole plate was SO good. The corn on the cob was just perfect, exactly what corn on the cob should taste like. It went perfectly with my crab legswhich were the BEST Ive ever had. They were so good. I loved them.
For dessert, I believe Pop Pop just got another after-dinner drink. Grammy got cheesecake.
She loved it, but then again, she loves all cheesecake.
I got the Chocolate Profiterole, which is their sweet ending to your celebration dessert.
I liked the mousse-y part but the pastry part was too dry.
After our lovely dinner, we go outside and wander the pier they have at the Yacht Club. I cannot even describe how relaxing this stroll was. There were just a few people out with us and it was the perfect temperature and so calm, with the Boardwalk across the water in the distance. We walked all the way down to the pier and on our way back to the resort, fireworks start going off!
Im guessing they were from IllumiNations? It was just a few but it really added a magical ambience!
We then head back to the Yacht Club, and after some gift shop browsing, head back to Pop for a peaceful night sleep after our first full day in the happiest place on earth.

Another great update! Landon looks so cute with his haircut chewing on that straw!
That steak looked so good, especially since it's so close to dinnertime. Yummy!

I just found your TR and was so excited to see your little guy! We're leaving on Sunday and I have an 11 month old that I'm really nervous about taking on the trip. Seeing how good your little guy is handling it makes me feel a little better. He reminds me of my Emelyn, too

That little couch thing is somewhere in Adventureland. We saw it on the way back to the castle. I saw them using it at MNSSHP as a meet and greet area. I'm not sure if its a "special events" character area or not.
And Landon will definitely be moving into the casatle with us!! And we'll just have so much fun with him all the time there!! You're so sweet!! I can't wait to be castle-mates.
Thanks!!
CRAB LEGS!
The flag ceremony always gives me goosebumps when we see it!
I love crab legs!! and me too!!
i love your picture in adventure land that is soo cute
Oh thats so crazy!! I was wondering where you were around then! I'm sad we didn't get to meet up either! We just always deviated from our plans so much...darn. There's always next time.
I have to go check and see if you started your tr yet!! I can't wait to see yours!

So we wake up bright and early for EPCOT day!! WOOOOHOOOOO, right?! Well see if that happens lol.
And today is the day I learn that Florida humidity kicks my hairs butt. Hardcore. Now, heres some background about my hair for anyone who cares. It was straight, or wavy at the most, until I was about 11 years old. Then one day, I get a haircut and it just curls right up. People claim that its because its not weighed down anymore. But even when my hair grows back out, its still super curly. Like whoa curly. All of my previous trips to Florida happened before this strange hair event, so I didnt know it would be so bad! Oh well.
I left and my hair was stick straight and sleek. Here you can see it starting to poof, but its super long and you can see that at the bottom, it was actually curly again.
Also, please make note of the weather. It was pretty nice but the humidity level was insane.
We got in the park super early for breakfast at Akershus!! Yay!! Now my parents feet were still sore from yesterday. So they complained the entire way from the front of Epcot to Norway about how long the walk was and that it was too early for that. So annoying. I was walking way in front of them because they were walking so slow and people were still passing me. Oh well. We FINALLY make it there. (Im not really just complaining about my parents, honest! This is a very important piece of information to make note of, youll understand by the end of the posts about this day!)
We get seated immediately. (I would post the picture with Belle, but I am going to have to take a pic of the Photo Pass one. The one we took, my dad didnt have the flash on and the quality is just super bad.)
This breakfast was mostly uneventful. I think only my dad went up to the cold offerings buffet. My mom and I were content with all the hot stuff they brought out. It was super yum. I loved it all but didnt take pictures. The princesses came super fast and Landon was already ready for a nap and hence, getting kinda fussy. Without further adieu, the princesses!!
(Now, I wont say anything about a certain princess with a really crooked smile, but I will say we met another one of the same princesses who was just a much better one! I read in someone elses tr about Norway princesses being b-team and I understand. LOL! Cinderella was the prettiest.)
Honestly, the best character at this breakfast was Belle. This breakfast was mostly for me. I just LOVE the princesses. But they hardly interacted with us at all. They pretty much signed the book and took a picture and left. Im pretty sure all they said was hello, except for Cinderella, who talked about what a handsome prince Landon would grow into. (Belle on the other hand, talked about Landon and how cute he was and talked about the princess sparkles on my shirt and stuff like that.)
However, there was a table right behind ours with a little 5 or so year old girl and it was just so cute. She was absolutely mesmerized by them. It was magical to see! It made me tear up. The AMAZING Belle had to walk by us to take her break and she saw the little girl and Belle was like oh, can I please get one last hug in case you arent still here when I get back? That little girl was in HEAVEN!!
After our breakfast, we go outside and it is POURING!! We hurry and put the stroller cover on and then give Landon a bottle and he is out. Poor little guy was super tired.
So we walk in the rain and we dont even bother with our ponchos. We have to make a quick stop to the first aid station because my mom wants band-aids for her feet. (I think that this first aid AND baby station is the most out of the way here. It seemed like such a long walk!)
Then my mom went shopping with Landon and Pop Pop and I went on Test Track. We walked right on. It was fantastic. There was NO ONE there. It was still pretty early, but I think the rain was keeping everyone away! YAY!! The guy even let us go again without getting off. It was great. I loved that ride. It was one of my dads favorites.
(Notice my huge cheesy smile. HA!)
After that, we head over to the Land to ride Soarin. I checked the time and we were about 2 hours AFTER the park opened. And we saw this:
We walked right on!! After my dad loved it and didnt believe it would actually not be fun for someone who was afraid of heights so he dragged my mom on. (She didnt like it for the record.)
While we waited for them, Landon walked around and played.
These kind of moments were Landons favorite! He loved not being confined to his stroller.
After my parents ride, my dad and I grab some Fast Passes.
What will we do next?! Is it lunch time or is there STILL time for more stuff? How are my moms feet doing? Will the rain let up at all? Find out soon!

So they complained the entire way from the front of Epcot to Norway about how long the walk was and that it was too early for that. So annoying. I was walking way in front of them because they were walking so slow and people were still passing me. Oh well. We FINALLY make it there. (Im not really just complaining about my parents, honest! This is a very important piece of information to make note of, youll understand by the end of the posts about this day!)
We get seated immediately. (I would post the picture with Belle, but I am going to have to take a pic of the Photo Pass one. The one we took, my dad didnt have the flash on and the quality is just super bad.)
This breakfast was mostly uneventful. I think only my dad went up to the cold offerings buffet. My mom and I were content with all the hot stuff they brought out. It was super yum. I loved it all but didnt take pictures. The princesses came super fast and Landon was already ready for a nap and hence, getting kinda fussy. Without further adieu, the princesses!!
(Now, I wont say anything about a certain princess with a really crooked smile, but I will say we met another one of the same princesses who was just a much better one! I read in someone elses tr about Norway princesses being b-team and I understand. LOL! Cinderella was the prettiest.)
Honestly, the best character at this breakfast was Belle. This breakfast was mostly for me. I just LOVE the princesses. But they hardly interacted with us at all. They pretty much signed the book and took a picture and left. Im pretty sure all they said was hello, except for Cinderella, who talked about what a handsome prince Landon would grow into. (Belle on the other hand, talked about Landon and how cute he was and talked about the princess sparkles on my shirt and stuff like that.)
However, there was a table right behind ours with a little 5 or so year old girl and it was just so cute. She was absolutely mesmerized by them. It was magical to see! It made me tear up. The AMAZING Belle had to walk by us to take her break and she saw the little girl and Belle was like oh, can I please get one last hug in case you arent still here when I get back? That little girl was in HEAVEN!!
After our breakfast, we go outside and it is POURING!! We hurry and put the stroller cover on and then give Landon a bottle and he is out. Poor little guy was super tired.
So we walk in the rain and we dont even bother with our ponchos. We have to make a quick stop to the first aid station because my mom wants band-aids for her feet. (I think that this first aid AND baby station is the most out of the way here. It seemed like such a long walk!)
Then my mom went shopping with Landon and Pop Pop and I went on Test Track. We walked right on. It was fantastic. There was NO ONE there. It was still pretty early, but I think the rain was keeping everyone away! YAY!! The guy even let us go again without getting off. It was great. I loved that ride. It was one of my dads favorites.
(Notice my huge cheesy smile. HA!)
After that, we head over to the Land to ride Soarin. I checked the time and we were about 2 hours AFTER the park opened. And we saw this:
We walked right on!! After my dad loved it and didnt believe it would actually not be fun for someone who was afraid of heights so he dragged my mom on. (She didnt like it for the record.)
While we waited for them, Landon walked around and played.
These kind of moments were Landons favorite! He loved not being confined to his stroller.
After my parents ride, my dad and I grab some Fast Passes.
What will we do next?! Is it lunch time or is there STILL time for more stuff? How are my moms feet doing? Will the rain let up at all? Find out soon!
