"Stop drinking out of that puddle!"-our first family trip with 2 and 4 year olds!

[2shortpeopleruleme]

I'm here I found it!! I love it keep it coming! I can't wait to hear more!!

 

[jana616]

So excited! Keep posting!

And I will definitely use your tip on doing Goofy's Barnstormer ride first. I showed it to him on YouTube and he seemed interested to go on it. Fingers crossed!

I think doing the Barnstormer first will be a really good way to gauge his roller coaster readiness. It seemed like it lasted less than a minute too, so it's short if he hates it! BTMRR was much longer. I hope he loves it though!

Your thread caught my eye - first of all because I love the title - and secondly because we're also from the midwest (Cincinnati), and have two little boys. We just had our first trip in August with our 4-year old and 21-month old. We did end up driving, but how nice to be there in just two hours!
Great report so far!


"Will it hurt when you staple the mouse ears to my head? - First Family Trip!"

Oh, wow, we have lots of similarities! I'm off to read your TR tonight! How was the drive? I know if I can convince my DH to go back we'll drive. He's too cheap to keep getting him to fly!

WOW....your post really gives me hope lol.

I'm bringing my family of 5 down this Sunday (the 20th) for my children's first trip. There will be me(Rhett the disney freak), my wife Shealaun, my 3 yo twins Brady and Gracie, and last but not least my 18 mo Blake. We are going to be leaving Friday night on the red eye from Utah, going to JFK and then to MCO.

My wife works for an airline and that was the quickest way to get there for free lol. I just couldn't stomach paying the same for airline tickets for a direct flight as my entire package with WDW. Like you we aren't bringing Car Seats just for the plane trips so this will be interesting with my 18 mo since this will be his first trip w/o it.

We are also leaving our strollers at home and just going to rent some there as I don't want to chance getting my nice one all busted up over such a long trip.

We go to Disneyland all the time, but this will be pretty interesting going across country with my children. I just hope we arrive with all 5 members in tact lol.

Thanks again for you trip and I'll post mine when we get back or maybe even at the end of each day as we get back to our resort.

Thanks,

Rhett

I hope you have a wonderful trip!! You guys will definitely have your hands full, but I bet your twins will be old enough to be fairly independent. The only times we found difficult were getting on and off the bus with kids, stuff, and strollers. If you can make it through those times, you'll be fine! We saw one family with 5 kids and the oldest couldn't have been more than 8. They were having a great time, so if they can do it, so can you! Have a great trip!

dont rush to get the report done on my account. You have helped me with all my last minute questions so far. If I think of anything else I will just ask you.

I was telling mike last night about the postcards. I was saying how when you were originally going to send it from disney I was going to act like mickey must of really sent them. He was giving me that look again, you know the one, where your husband thinks you have really lost your mind. I bet they will get here by sat. Thanks again. I will let you know as soon as they come.

Maybe our next trip we should plan at the same time and we can meet up in disney. Its sad to say but thats the only place I have ever taken a plane too. I hate flying so I guess it has to be somewhere really good to get me on. I should put that on my bucket list...."fly on a plane to somewhere other than disney".

I LOL about the bucket list! What a good goal, ha ha! And I know very well the look your DH probably gave you. I got it on a daily basis as the trip got closer. I am sorry you couldn't attempt to convince him they were really from Mickey though!

Signing on! I often say that trip reports and pictures are what keep me sane until my next Disney vacation. Thanks for your contribution to my sanity.

You have such a cute family and the grandmothers look like they are having a great time too.

Looking forward to more....especially this whole drinking out of the puddle episode.

Lisa

Thanks for the compliment! Looking at all the pictures, I can tell I was just as sweaty and gross as I felt. We were so hot. I'm glad the grandmas look like they had fun. I hope they did. They were so much help, but I wanted them to really enjoy themselves too. I know my mom had fun (she wants to go back right now!), but my MIL hasn't really said anything about it. She and I had a kind of stressful departure from there (she just did not want to check her bag at the hotel through to the airport, which would have saved time and allowed her to help more with the kids, plus then Chad kept trying to help her with her stupid bag, and I was thinking if she'd just checked it none of that would have been an issue), and then she thought I was mad at her, which I was, but I didn't want her to KNOW that, you know? Argh...it was not a good way to leave there, so hopefully it didn't sour the whole trip for her.

I'm working on the puddle drinking day right now!

 

[jana616]

I'm here I found it!! I love it keep it coming! I can't wait to hear more!!

Yay, glad you made it! It's been so fun reading your blog and seeing your pictures, knowing we were there the same time. I just saw your ticker! I am SOOOOOO jealous you guys are going back! I showed Chad the bounceback offer, but we really hope that I will be either very pregnant or dealing with a newborn in September next year, so we ruled it out. I wish we could go back so soon!!! Now I'm trying to convince Chad that we will need an adult-only babymoon to somewhere tropical next spring or summer. We'll see what kind of luck I have there!

 

[onejellyshelly]

Love your tr. I will be bringing DD4 on a surprise trip in just a few days. What building would you recommend at the POP?

 

[jana616]

We did not sleep well the night before. We put Cooper in the pack n play next to the TV stand, Griffin in the bed by the door, and Chad and I in the bed closer to the bathroom. Well, Cooper woke up freezing a couple of times because that spot, while a perfect fit for the PnP, is right where the airconditioning bounces down. Poor little guy! We moved the PnP to in between the bed and bathroom, and trying to put Griffin in that bed since he didn't need much space. The problem was that Cooper figured out quickly that he could climb out onto the bed, so he wasn't contained. Eventually we settled on Chad sleeping in that bed to help contain him, and Griffin (who I learned yells things in his sleep, as well as kicks and punches-awesome) and I sharing the other bed. Let's just say sleep wasn't ideal for the week!

Anyway, we did not sleep really well, but none of us cared when the wake up call came at 7:20. Our hope was to feed the kids a quick breakfast while we got ready, then head to the bus by 8 am. Chad dressed the kids while I got ready. This only worked because I had labeled ziplocs for each day and each kid. Heaven help us if he'd had to pick out their outfits himself! We did pretty well, actually getting to the bus stop at 8:15 after stopping to fill our mugs at the Food Court. I considered this a victory! We got on a bus quickly and were on our way...

We pulled up and got through the turnstiles just as they were doing the Morning Show (what is the official title?). So we happily stood and watched this:

All ready to go!

Soon the gates were opened and we walked down Main Street, seeing this

as we walked. I had broken from Ridemax's recommendation and decided to do Tomorrowland Speedway first, then go to Dumbo. It seemed like either would have a wait later in the day, so I hoped doing them first would make that shorter.

We waited at the rope into Tomorrowland with a very small crowd. I guess no Space Mountain really lessens that! As soon as the countdown was complete, we raced off to the Speedway, and were in the second and third cars. Griffin loved driving!

Chad didn't know that Cooper was allowed to steer, so he just sat in the passenger seat. When we figured it out later he liked it a lot more!

As soon as the ride was over, we headed to Dumbo. It was probably 9:20, and there was already a 10 minute wait. I realize this is nothing compared to busy times, but this was one of the longest lines we waited in all week. That's how awesome the crowds were!
Cooper entertained himself by going under all the chains, looking like he was about to dart off at any moment. Stinker.

Griffin liked the mirrors in the queue area, and made Dumbo ears for himself.

After 10 minutes or so we were told that if we wanted to ride 3 and 3, we could get on the next ride. We did that, but I think it would have been more fun to do 2, 2, and 2. We were a little smushed.

Honestly, we did it because it's a classic, but neither kid thought it was anything to write home about. I was secretly happy, since I knew it would always have a line and didn't want to wait! (Of course I would have if they had loved it, I'm not that mean!). One last Dumbo photo op

, and a stop at Winnie the Pooh to get fast passes for later (where we also got bonus Philharmagic passes too) and we were off to Toontown.

One of the best things I learned from Ridemax was that Toontown opens at 9:45, even though the map says 10 am. We got there about 9:46, and walked right onto Goofy's Barnstormer. Griffin loved it, which I expected. Cooper (who made the 35" by a thread!), did not. He didn't scream or cry, just cling to me like he was terrified he was going to die. When we came back around to the loading area, they asked if we wanted to stay on and go again. Uh, yeah! But my mom and Cooper went off to do something that didn't terrify him quite so much!

We rode one more time, and got off to go to Mickey's House. That's when I realized my Ridemax plan (you know, the day's Bible) was missing. I went through the exit to see if it was still in our car, and luckily it was! Whew, crisis averted! The funny thing is that we didn't really follow the plan too much anyway!

Chad ran to Frontierland to get fast passes for BTMRR while the grandmas and I took the boys through Mickey's house. It was cute, but they were bummed they couldn't touch or play with anything.

They liked Minnie's house much better. Her kitchen is so fun! Make sure your kids play with the stove and microwave.

And the only pink I think you'll see in this entire trip report! I convinced them to go in Minnie's gazebo!

We ended up in the Judge's Tent at some point and thought about waiting to meet the characters, but there was a good line already and we knew we'd see them later. The good thing about not having girls is that we definitely did not need to wait in line for princesses or fairies!

(Oops, out of picture space...continued in next post!)

 

[jana616]

We met back up with Chad in Fantasyland and hopped on the Mad Tea Party with no wait at all. Sue, Chad, and Griffin all love spinning fast, so they took one cup while my mom, Cooper, and I took another.

The ride right after ours had a special guest. Alice herself came to ride with these girls! Can you imagine how excited they must have been?

After the Tea Party, we headed over to Pooh's Playful Spot so the boys could run around a little. It was probably about 10:45. They played in there for awhile, and it was nice for them to have some unstructured time to play. We tried to give them that everyday at the parks, for at least a little while, and I'm glad we did. My mom and I went to get Peter Pan fast passes while they played too. The short fast pass return times were so nice; they were usually just 45 minutes ahead. So it was 10:45, but we had fast passes still to use for Pooh, the Philharmagic, BTMRR, and Peter Pan. Awesome!

Griffin and daddy playing dinosaurs, of course!

Taking pictures with Grandma Sue

I love this one for some reason!

After the kids had a while to play, we went across the street to Pooh's ride. We stopped first to get a picture of us all in our matching shirts. One of my big regrets is that we did not get one of all of us in front of the castle this day. Oh well! Everyone loved the shirts. We had people actually run up to us in the streets to find out where we got them. Only in Disney would this be cool!

We went on the ride (which is kind of weird, honestly! I didn't remember that from before).

and then saw Mickey's Philharmagic. This was so cute! Cooper was kind of restless, but the rest of us really liked it!

After that we headed to Cosmic Ray's for lunch. I wasn't overly impressed here by the food, but it was air conditioned, and the kids liked the alien piano player. Good enough. Of course 10 minutes after we got inside, I realized I left my camera bag with my wallet and DSLR camera sitting on top of the stroller! Chad ran out and thank goodness it was still there! Another crisis averted!
Griffin entertained himself by stuffing apple slices in his mouth, and we all relaxed and cooled off.

OK, since I know you are all DYING to know the origin of the trip report's title, here you go! So we finish lunch and head out to the strollers. We had sticky hands from eating, so Chad was using some old ice water we had to rinse his and the kids' hands off. I turn around and see that Cooper has taken a straw (which he must have found on the ground-YUCK!) and stuck it into a puddle of something (it hadn't rained, so who knows what it was-double YUCK!), and was slurping it up! Even now, I get queasy just remembering this story. It was seriously the grossest thing either of my kids has ever done. Of course, it made for a great week-long joke. "Cooper, do you want some juice? Oh wait, here's a puddle instead!" So there you go!

After that excitement we headed over to Frontierland.

Wearing his sunglasses on his head like mommy!

Cooper fell asleep, so my mom (who has a heart condition and can't ride thrill rides) took him to walk around while we rode BTMRR. We got a Rider Swap for it, even though she wasn't going to go on. Awesome! Between that and the fast passes we had, we had enough for the 4 of us to do it twice. Griffin absolutely loved it. Hands down it was his favorite ride of the week. After that we met up with my mom, and she, Chad, and Sue went to do Splash Mountain (only a 10 minute wait at 1:30!). Griffin decided he didn't want to do it after watching the drop, and I hate drops like that so I bowed out. Instead, I took Griffin and a still sleeping Cooper to a playarea under the bridge there so he could play.

Here was our drama for the day. I was sitting there when a little girl, about 8 years old, sat down next to me and started to cry. She looked very scared. I asked her what was wrong, and she started speaking panicked, very fast Spanish. I took French! I figured she lost her family, so I kept trying to ask "Mama?" thinking that was universal enough to get some kind of acknowledgement. Nope! Finally a cast member walked by and I asked him to help us. He didn't speak Spanish either, so he called someone who did. Carlos was the only cast member of the entire week that I was unimpressed with. He was very irritated to have to help this poor, scared girl, who had indeed lost her mom and grandma. And honestly, neither of them did anything to make her feel better or less scared. I kept rubbing her back telling her everything would be fine, but they weren't very nice. I was really shocked. Eventually her group came back and found her-another crisis averted!

Of course all the tears and crying had woken up Cooper, so he played a little too while we waited for Chad and the grandmas. They came back and then Griffin decided that he did want to ride Splash Mountain after all. Of course! So my mom and I took Cooper to Ariel's Grotto to splash in the fountains. He loved it there!

After they got done, Griffin, Chad and the grandmas met us there and he played a little too.

Can you guess what happened next?

After some water fun, we did It's A Small World and Peter Pan. Around 4 pm, we headed over to the Toontown Railroad Station. It was time to head out for our dinner at 'Ohana, and we thought that would be a fun way to get back to the front of the park. All day Cooper had yelled, "Choo Choo" every time he heard it, but he was unimpressed once we got on!

We rode it to Main Street Station and hopped off. This is what we saw when we headed to the exit!

Next up: 'Ohana dinner, yum!

Love your tr. I will be bringing DD4 on a surprise trip in just a few days. What building would you recommend at the POP?

Thanks! I think a little bit depends on what's most important to you. For us, it was quiet. We were in the 90s section, which definitely was quiet, but it was also really far from the kiddie pool and Classic Hall (though not bad to the busses at all if you cut through the parking lot). I've heard the 70's section is nice, and it seemed to be right in the middle of everything. The 50's section would be close to everything too, and quiet if you ask for the side facing the lake. Overall though, I think all of the sections seemed fine!

 

[Gabrielsbigtrip]

OH gosh, that's gross!!!!! I hope there weren't any special side effects to that drink!

Great report. We don't get to do alot of things when we go to the parks so it's great to see the pictures. It gives me something to look forward to next time.

I am glad your stuff was still on the stroller. We had a incident like that as well.

Isn't Ohana's awesome? YUM! We were there on 9/6. It was too much food for two adults and a child who eats nothing But oh so good!

 

[mommyof2Pirates]

You guys got so much done in a 1/2 day. Thats awesome. I hope we have the same luck with crowds. I cant believe all the crisis aversions on your trip so far. I was laughing about your MIL and the luggage. That would be something my MIL would do to. and let me tell ya mark my word I will never take her to disney with us. Hopefully god forgives me for this but I cant stand my MIL for more than 2 hours. She only thinks of herself and could care less that we actually have kids that need to be taken care of and its not all about her. Well I just went on a crazy tangent sorry!

I cant believe the puddle . Its amazing he didnt get sick. Boys!!!!!

Cant wait to hear about ohana. I have that as a definite on our list for next time around. I am interested to see what you thought.

 

[momtoBrandon&Jacob]

Awesome report so far! Your family is adorable! I'm really enjoying it because I have two boys too. They were 4 and 5 on our first trip and it was great! Can't wait to read more.

 

[Howellsy]

Ooh, I'm subscribing! I was at Pop too from September 2nd-16th, I'll look out for you in my pictures! I'm loving the TR so far

 

[DawnAK]

Can't wait to read all about your trip. We are planning a January trip to WDW. Our little boy will be 2 in November. He is a "wild child" and has a hard time sitting still. I wonder/worry about how he will do in certain shows (like FOTLK in AK), rides, and the 3-D type attractions. also, he is not one to hold hands and walk side by side. He does ok in his stroller but when he wants to walk and tends to run the opposite direction. Hopefully he will outgrow that by the time he turns two in a couple months. Thanks for sharing your trip and experiences with us all.

Oh, your little boy sounds just like Cooper! I was so worried about how that would go, since he hates to sit, and mostly refused to ride in the stroller. Well, the stroller vs. walking thing was never an issue. He was too pooped most of the time to put up a fight. I brought a monkey harness just in case, but we didn't need it once. And he was even willing to hold hands, which he refuses to do around home. So hopefully you'll have the same kind of luck!

Cooper did okay in the shows, etc. I thought he'd love FOTLK, since he loves anything musical. He liked it, but the downtime before it really started was rough. 3-D shows, he refused to wear the glasses and watched them without. Really, for the most part I was surprised by how well he did. I bet you will be too!

Ooh, I'm subscribing! I was at Pop too from September 2nd-16th, I'll look out for you in my pictures! I'm loving the TR so far

Oh, let me know if you find us! That's so cool you were there the same time. What section were you in?

OH gosh, that's gross!!!!! I hope there weren't any special side effects to that drink!

We were very fortunate that there were no side effects to the puddle drinking. Still skeeves me out though!

We loved 'Ohana (not to give anything away). I had planned it mostly for my DH, who can eat a tremendous amount of food. But he was still stuffed from lunch (he ate his, plus the ribs from my MIL, plus half of a cheeseburger, plus most of my fries!), so he didn't get to eat that much. So much food!

You guys got so much done in a 1/2 day. Thats awesome. I hope we have the same luck with crowds. I cant believe all the crisis aversions on your trip so far.

Yeah, by the time the luggage thing happened, I was pretty cranky. We'd missed the DME to the airport for a variety of reasons, and I was trying to get us on the next one and hope we got there in time. The luggage lady was doing me a favor taking our bags since we were past the 3 hour minimum to check in. And all I wanted was for her to give me her stupid bag so we didn't have to hassle it. I must have asked her 5 times to do it, and she kept saying she'd just do it at the airport. So then when we're trying to move our 4 carry-ons, 4 personal items, 2 kids and 2 strollers over, Chad starts helping her with her one bag. I about lost it!! OK, calming down now. I love her, and we get along great 99% of the time. She's not selfish at all, just ditzy. This was one of those times! I definitely wouldn't do Disney with a MIL like yours! That would make me crazy.

Awesome report so far! Your family is adorable! I'm really enjoying it because I have two boys too. They were 4 and 5 on our first trip and it was great! Can't wait to read more.

Thanks! I'm hoping to work on some more this weekend, but we have 3 birthday parties to go to, so we'll see how it goes!

 

[Dylan_&_Blake's_mom]

Fantastic update. I am taking tips from it as I go I agree with the all boys thing you said, at least you don't have to wait on any princess lines and such

 

[dahall]

It is so nice to see what you all look like. I have been following you for months you are such a cute family.
I love the picture of your little one driving. The look on his face is priceless, he looks so happy. The one of ll of you at pooh is wonderful.

Your shirts are so great, I have had a few made (THANKS TO YOUR SUGGESTIONS) and will be putting them together tomorrow, I cant wait for my Paw Paw and Nana to see them. Any suggestion on the ironing?

I could so see my Asher (turning 4 on the 29th)doing the puddle thing. He can find gum under where, so we have to make sure what he is chewing on.

I am loving the trip report and can't wait to learn more. I am taking notes. A few questions please

Is there anything that you didn't bring that you had to buy or wish you would have brought?
If you could do one thing your didn't what would that be?
What would you NOT do that you did and why?

I don't want you to rush ahead of you report or ruin you report but with only a week to go I am looking for any tips.

Yeah, I have to be honest, with all the cute little girls dressed up in their gowns and stuff, I was kind of missing having a daughter to do princess-y things with. But the only things we saw with any kinds of lines that day were Ariel and the Fairies, and I looked at the silver lining there that at least we didn't have to wait for those!

Oh good, I'm glad we don't have the only kid who finds disgusting things on the ground and eats them! His other new thing this trip was licking things-like doors, my shoe. Honestly, he is not that weird of a kid at home. Vacation must make him crazy!

On the ironing, my best tip is to let the transfer cool a bit before pulling the parchment paper off. Also, if you are putting a white background transfer on a colored shirt, be really careful on how long you keep heat on (witness the "Prince in Training" shirt in my PTR!). I have to say, I thought I did awesome on ours, but I've washed them all since we've been home, and on a couple of them, the corners are peeling up and coming off the shirts. I don't know if I should have ironed them longer or what... So maybe I'm not the one to ask!

Here's your questions!
Is there anything that you didn't bring that you had to buy or wish you would have brought? The only thing I can think of is the big misting fans. The kind that have a big spray bottle attached to a fan? I was going to get one at Walmart for less than $5 and my mom said it would be too awkward to carry around, so I didn't. Well, by day 3 we were HOT! So I used some of my birthday fun card $$ to buy a $17 WDW one just like the one I could have paid way less for at home. Now, you may have no interest in those, and they may be hard to find now that summer's pretty much over. But I was mad I didn't just listen to myself (one of a few times that happened!). Mostly, though, we brought too much stuff, especially snacks and diapers.
If you could do one thing your didn't what would that be? Hmmm...I wish we'd taken more Photopass pictures. I preordered the CD, but the kids were not really wanting pictures taken very much, so we only got like 80 pictures taken. I wish we'd just walked leisurely around the MK for an hour or so at some point. We were always moving fast, and there are so many neat details you miss that way.
What would you NOT do that you did and why? Rush quite so much. The crowds were so light, we really could have gone slower and taken our time more than we did.

 

[thegreggersmom]

Loving your report! And I have a 19 month old son who decided to drink straight from a puddle on our street (not even classy enough to use a straw ) not too long ago. Boys! You gotta love 'em! I am anxious to read more about how Cooper did since we are headed to WDW in December.

 

[dahall]

I think it is a boy thing. I can't image a girl (in her pretty princess dress) drinking from a puddle. Boy are just boys. But on the plus side I will never have to pray for getting into princess dinning.

Thanks for the info, I was wondering about the cooling fans. We have only gone in Jan and Nov so it was cool, we even needed sweatshirts. I am making one of many Walmart and Target runs this weekend for supply's. I will look for them there and hope to find them in a discount bin.

I too have seen that "honey you are Disney crazy" look from my DH as I plan for this trip and bring the laptop to bed so I can read more info and ideas.

Can't wait to read more, if you think of anything else I might miss in the last week frenzy I would be so appreciate it.

 

[mickeystoontown]

I love the lastest installments. The pictures of the railroad station all done up in orange are gorgeous. It seems like you guys really lucked out on the wait times. 10 minutes for Dumbo? That's short compared to the 90 minutes we often see when we're there.

I'm glad to see that the grandmothers are still having a good time.

What the heck was up with the castmembers who didn't give a hoot whether or not they helped that little girl find her parents? That's just plain mean. I think I'd have to write to Disney about that one.

And, of course, the puddle sipping......pretty darn gross. But, he's a boy.....those are things that boys do. Mine is now 12 and he still does gross things.

 

[DisneyTiger]

Ok, I just threw up a little after reading the puddle story. That is pretty hilariously disgusting Gotta love boys! Hey, at least he kept himself hydrated

I realized that I hadn't subscribed to this thread so I've been missing all the updates. Duh!!! Now, I'm all signed up and ready for more. It's great so far
