The Crazy Fun, Which One of You Splashed Me Trip Report: Luvinmy2 June 2012

[luvmy2babies]

We were seated and before long, Eeyore was at our table. I barely had time to get the autograph cards out. I love how he does his signature with the one backwards letter E, very cute.

As you can see ds is a bit distracted here. I was glad I had mostly buffets on this trip. He was not much on waiting for food.

Thankfully I could see the next character (Piglet) was a ways off, so we made our way to the buffet. If anyone’s curious how I do this, ds is a runner at times (used to be constantly) so I do hold him when we go up to get food. I grab two plates and hold them stacked. I pile a bunch onto one plate and move food over to his plate once we are back at the table. He is getting better and I suspect by next trip, he’ll be able to walk it. I do try to get enough food to avoid a return trip. I am not always successful, depending on ds’ appetite. On this day I was, although I had to give him my grapes. He was literally obsessed with grapes on this trip.

He was happily eating when Piglet came. He loves Piglet and would not take his eyes off him to look at me.

He was a little shy around Tigger, but said, later “he’s so funny”. He bounces with a lot of the children in the restaurant. He’s one of dd’s favorites.

As you can probably tell Pooh is a favorite for both children. I love this picture.

We had scrambled eggs, Mickey Waffles, pancakes, grits, biscuits, grapes, honey do melons, cantelope, bacon, sausage links, water and apple juice between the three of us. We all enjoyed the meal. Everything was fresh and plenty warm and there was plenty of everything. I wasn’t keeping up with the time, but I know the park opened while we were in there (I knew it would). A dad at the next table went out to get fast passes for Splash Mountain while we were sitting there. We weren't really in a rush. First on our agenda was a Tiana meet and greet and I felt confident we’d get in on at least the 2nd set.

We settled up and stopped at a bathroom so dd could change. We had to wait for a while. We arrived when she had gone in for her first break. We were about the 6th family in line. It wasn’t a long wait. Every meeting with Tiana (this is the 3rd) dd becomes more and more star struck. It’s cute.

The photo pass photographer got a close up of her “dreamy” face that I’ll post later. I still love this one from last year. We were there one day and this was the only character we took the time to see. I wasn’t going to take the card, but did anyway. I ended up buying this photo digital download. I also got a print, I loved it so much. It's the wallpaper on my laptop. Every time ds sees it, he says, “happy”.

We didn’t get that shot with Tiana this time, but got some great “hug” shots with some other princesses. But I don’t want to get ahead of myself.

Next it was over to Fantasy Land to do some things we had not done on the first day. First up was the carousel, but not before an attempt to remove the Sword in the Stone.

Um…yeah, it’s still there.

We got on the carousel after waiting through one ride. I love how I can see my son’s growth. First trip he was 10 months old and I held him on the back of dd’s horse. He’s a pro now.

Next, I’m sure we did Philharmagic. It’s just what we do. Then we got on It’s a Small World. You’d think we’d get tired of it, but we rode it just as many times as we saw Philharmagic. I love the ride and I think it was dd’s way of making up for us not riding Pooh and Peter Pan.

Then we went over to Dumbo. I had to take this picture just because I’ve never seen it with no line. They had the circus tent open, plus they had both rides flying.

We walked right through to get on.

A view of the other Dumbo from the one we were riding.

Most of our view from up high where dd had us the entire time with her driving was of the construction area, but that was okay.

Here’s my attempt at a family shot during the ride.

Next we returned to another (and nearby now) favorite.

I snapped a couple of pictures before it started.

Next we were back over in Tomorrow Land. To avoid that message about having too many pictures, I’m going to cut this post off here though.

Got an email that my photo pass CD is on the way.

I'm in! Your children are just adorable! I'm very jealous that you got to eat at Crystal Palace, that was on my "To Do" list and we never got around to it.

Thank you for the kind words about my children. You should keep it on your "to do" list. That was our 2nd time eating there and we have enjoyed it both times. We had dinner there the first time but getting into Magic Kingdom and getting those pictures in a practically empty park was awesome and has me ranking breakfast a bit higher than dinner.

Ok many many comments now that I'm all caught up

I have to applaud you for making the best of the rain. I'm sure lots of people would have let it ruin their vaca, props to you and your family for being positive and making it a fun situation.

Lol on the lost cards. So something I would have done. Your children seem to get along wonderfully. It is so cute to see DD interacting with DS in your pictures. I am wondering how my DS will react with characters. I'm hoping he will be the type that runs up hugging, but I think it will be more of a "I'm not so sure about this Mom".

I haven't seen the splash pad at Epcot. That is something I will have to look for if it is warm enough during our trip. Your dinner at Garden Grill sounds fantastic. I'm so glad we ended up getting reservations there.

I'm also very jealous of your early entry for Crystal Palace. Right now we are booked for a dinner there, but hope that something opens up for us as the date gets closer.

DS loved Tiana. I think he was mostly into all of her "pretties" He ended up with he lipstick on his cheek. It was too cute. And finally your family picture on Dumbo is really good. You can tell you all are having a great time

Thank you. I won’t say it was always easy to keep a good attitude. I did eventually get tired of that poncho. I concluded they are called emergency rain gear for a reason. They are not meant to be worn for days on end. Fortunately both of my children had rain jackets. I needed the poncho though to keep my bag dry. Only frustrating thing was having my arms get wet. I started carrying some paper towels to dry them whenever we were under cover. We also supplemented with umbrellas. I’ve read it wasn’t good theme park etiquette, but we were far from the only ones. Truthfully the wind was more bothersome than the rain was. Of course I have to admit, I might not have been able to keep the attitude going if I knew ahead of time it was going to rain the way it did. Like I didn’t say to myself “it is going to rain for 4 days”. We just took it one day at a time and took advantage of the effects of it. I just kept reminding myself what I was thankful for during that time.

It did help that there was no thunder and lightning while we were out and they weren’t closing attractions. I also have to be grateful that it wasn’t cold. I was also very grateful that no one was sick. At least we could keep going. On our first trip to Disney, my son shared a stomach virus with us and we lost 2 days of a 5.5 day trip, had to cancel 2 ADRs (this was before the CC penalty) and I had to push my dd (then 7) in the stroller and wear my ds (then 10 months) while she got her strength back or we would have lost more time.

It was something. When the sun came out, it actually hurt my eyes. I was thankful for the sunny days we had at the end, but I also became even more grateful for the cooler temperatures we had with the rain. When we got back home, it was 104 degrees.

Yeah, I couldn’t believe the card thing. I’m so glad you can just walk right up and get them replaced. Not sure how that works with regular paper tickets though. I think some people say to write down the information the back or take a picture of the back of them so they can easily be replaced if lost. I actually did that with our photo pass card after we used it at the character spot so I would have the ID number to use on the website after we got home.

For the most part they do get along great. There is a strong bond there already and a lot of love. My daughter asked for a little brother for a long time and I’m sure having him has helped us deal with losing my husband. With the characters children seem to fall into three groups. 1) the run up and hug category. My daughter has always been this way. 2) I want to go but come with me. My son is in this category now. 3) What the heck is that, I’m not going near that thing. My stepson was in this category. My husband said he would leave marks on his legs digging his nails in. I was glad we had the photo pass card and I was glad dd could take a few pictures for me at our character meals. Not sure if you scanned my PTR, but we had quite a few. In this report, we are just getting started.

We had dinner at Crystal Palace on our first trip and the food was good as was the interaction. I am though really glad I got to do the early entry at least once. There were photo pass photographers out too so I have more pictures. Those are coveted reservations. I think ours were easier because I wanted 8:30 and not 8:05. I wasn’t concerned about being done in time for rope drop. Keep trying though. With the CC thing now more people will cancel.

My son got a lipstick print during our first trip. We were at Akershus and Ariel got him. Even at 10 months he looks very proud of himself.

He’ll get some princess action later in this report, but all I’ll say is no lipstick marks this time.

 

[luvmy2babies]

They spotted some children playing with this and had to stop. I let ds out of the stroller to join in the fun.

He liked playing in the water. Dd wanted to move it. I had to help. We grabbed fast passes for Buzz, then looked around to decide what to do while we waited.

The People Mover was up today. We walked right on.

I like to get at least one shot of our view from the train. As you can see the clouds are rolling in at that point.

After that we still had some time so we went to another attraction that was a “first” for us.

We really enjoyed this. And yes, we were walking around for a while singing about a “Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow.”

Then our time had rolled around. We were actually 15 minutes into it so I said, “It’s time for Buzz.” Dd said she wanted to do the Laughing Floor first, but when we went over there it was a 20 minute wait. 10 minute waits are generally 15 for this attraction from what we have seen, so I figured 20 might mean 30, then adding in the time you are in there, I told dd it was better if we do Buzz first so our fast passes would not expire while we were doing something else. It took a bit of convincing for some reason. I think she thought I would change my mind after Buzz and she would not get to the Laughing Floor again. I just wanted to be sure they didn’t expire. Our fast passes actually had different times on them so we had more time on one than the other.

Side Story: I gave dd the KTTW cards to get the fast passes out and the first one came out fine. The 2nd one had the message “This ticket has not been used to gain admission into Magic Kingdom today. This is not a valid fast pass.” Then I took another look at the KTTW card. It was ds’ card. He’s 2, so I am still not sure why he even had a card. It had his name and the word “INFANT” next to it same as dd’s had CHILD and mine had ADULT. He did not have one on our first trip when he was 10 months. I never thought to ask, but I was carrying it around the entire trip in case I needed it. So during the confusion the fast pass return time changed. I separated them after that.

So, after another ride through space, we saved the Monster City again with our laughter. Then it was back to Fantasy Land. We got lunch at Casey’s. Dd had been asking for a hot dog and we got there the one time during the trip when the lines were not out the door. I guess because it was almost 1:00 and not peak lunch time. Ds was starting to look sleepy and I wanted to get lunch in him before he nodded off. We finished up a little after 1:30 and went do our two favorite attractions again. By now I probably don’t have to say what those are.

We got back to the hub about 10 minutes before the next “Dream Along with Mickey” show. I told dd she could go sit up front, but I stayed back on the curb with ds because I knew after the show was over, people would be claiming spots for the Celebrate a Dream Come True Parade. It’s my favorite Parade. I hoped ds would make it but he fell asleep and missed the show again and the parade.

Okay, that is enough of that. Believe me I took a lot more.

A steady rain was falling by the time the parade ended. We left, but we had actually planned to end our touring at that time. Once we were on the bus, I asked dd if she was tired. She said no.

Once back I was reminded of the reason I wasn’t a real big fan of the “go back for a nap and return later” strategy for us. We got off the bus and ds was wide awake. The rain had stopped, so we went to the resort playground for a while. I had to wipe it off a bit, but then let them go for it.

Once we were back in the room, we just lounged around the rest of the evening. Baths were first on the list and dd and ds played with various toys I’d brought along while I prepared for the next day. I almost wished we had gone back because it didn’t really rain more that evening, but I knew we had a big day coming so we just relaxed in our room, even had pizza and breadsticks delivered and went to bed early.

Coming up: day 4 and some “Wet Magic”

 

[Bmousey]

Got an email that my photo pass CD is on the way.

Photo Pass! Hooray! I love it...can't wait! I had photo pass from my trip in March. Still debating on doing a photo pass TR ....it would probably be photo pass only because I just don't have the time to do a full TR like this. However, I'm enjoying yours!

I'm so glad I prepaid for it. Having my daughter's BBB pictures on it alone made it worth it. The photographers got a lot of shot though we would not have gotten.

It came today.

 

[luvmy2babies]

Since I got my CD, I thought I would post some of the pictures we had taken for the days I have covered in my TR already. I apologize in advance for the size. They are all 400x400 in photobucket, but for some reason they are still ginormous on here. I'll suggest maybe bringing the screen in a bit so it is not over powering.

We didn't have any pictures taken on day 1. I guess we kind of looked like we'd been up a long time and coming into the park at 4 in the afternoon, I really didn't think about it.

But we hit the Epcot Character Spot on day 2

And we saw one of our favorites from the first trip, Mexico Donald. I was glad he had a photographer. My camera took a horrible picture because it was so dark in there.

Ds isn't angry or being shy here, he's sleeping.

Up next, the photos from day 3

 

[luvmy2babies]

On day 3, we had our breakfast at Crystal Palace. I read on another report that the Photo pass photographers are out when you enter. I was so glad. I love these.

Then there was dd’s meet and greet with Princess Tiana.

I love the look on her face, like she’s living a dream. Even though she knows the deal about characters, she still manages to get this starry-eyed look. I take any opportunity to keep the “little” in my little girl.

the photos are no longer crazy large.

Up next: Day 4, Wet Magic

 

[luvmy2babies]

Okay, so I refer to day 4 as “Wet Magic”. I can’t take all of the credit for that name. Here’s what happened.

We were up early because I wanted to make rope drop. When we got up it was already raining. It wasn’t raining very hard when we left the room. I packed our breakfast this morning to eat while we were waiting for the park to open. I had an individual package of dd’s favorite cereal and an individual carton of milk. I had bagels and jelly for ds and me. He had a cup of milk and I had apple juice.

When we got on the bus, it was about 8:15. It was about 8:30 when we arrived. As he opened the doors for us, the driver said, “Hope you’re ready for some wet magic.” I told him we were.

It was raining harder as we walked up to the park entrance. We stood under a tree to eat breakfast so we weren’t getting pounded. No where else would we stand out in the rain to eat.

This wasn’t easy, just standing around, but eventually the park opened and we got inside. We headed to Adventure Land. We would soon find out what people mean on here when they say the rain his it’s advantages. We didn’t have much company.

By the time we got to into the place, there was a CM opening up the Disney Fairy Nook. We were the 4th family in to see the Fairies. Score! I have never seen this line below 30 minutes, usually it’s 45.

First was Vidia. Now I have seen enough Disney Fairy movies to know her personality. She was in character. Dd had a shirt on with her name on it. Vidia asked her why the grown up in her life felt the need to tag her. dd got the joke. Then she talked about putting Tinkerbelle’s wings in water.

The photo pass picture

Next was Tinkerbelle herself. Tinkerbelle talked about flying in the rain and how hard it was. Dd promptly ratted Vidia out.

And a photo pass shot

After that the rain had slacked up a bit. As we walked further into Adventure Land and found the Magic Carpet ride a “walk-on”.

Dd was driving and managed to get us up by the spitting camel. We laughed at ourselves dodging the camel spray when it was raining.

When we got off, I saw that Jasmine and Aladdin were out. I told dd to get in line while I got ds back into the stroller. Thankfully we could wait under a shelter. Dd gave me this while we were waiting.

I like how she still meets with Aladdin. They worked well together interacting with the children.

Jasmine noticed dd’s outfit while she was asking about her plans for the day. She told her she had to go and visit Ariel in that outfit. Dd told her we would see her. She talked about how Ariel would probably love all this rain, but it hardly rained in Agrabar and she really hoped it would stop soon.

Some photo pass shots

I noticed it was about 9:45, so we headed back to where Ariel and Eric meet. It was about 9:50 or so when we got there and there was a line of about 8 families/groups ahead of us. That was great for Ariel and Eric’s line. I also noticed Peter Pan was there signing autographs and taking pictures.

Dd looked at me with the “What in the world?!?!” face. She put her hands on her hips and everything. “Mom, I do not want to see Peter Pan. Where’s Ariel?” I told her that Ariel didn’t come out until 10 o’clock and he was probably just filling in until then. From what I’ve seen he doesn’t have his own spot and just kind of moves around. He showed up at Tiana’s meet and greet when we were there in October 2011.

Dd was not convinced and she wasn’t the only one. There were several little girls in the line who were let’s say, not there to see Peter and were letting their parents know it. Don’t get me wrong, we like him, but he wasn’t on the schedule. The CM came by and assured us this was Ariel’s spot. The people up front just got a bonus. Peter soon said his good-byes and the CM told us to make sure to cheer when Ariel and Eric came out.

Dd was still not convinced. I could tell she was going to have to see Ariel before all was well. She was wearing her special outfit for her. Thankfully at 10 o’clock on the dot, the couple arrived and we cheered as we were told. The two of them were very sweet. There was a family ahead of us with two girls who had been there when we met Jasmine and Aladdin. They had told the girls to ask Ariel and Eric to tap dance for them and they had not forgotten. It was funny to watch them do it. When it was her turn, dd didn’t waste any time showing Ariel her outfit.

She asked me if it was specially made. I confirmed it was indeed.

Then they talked about the shirt she had on with it. Dd was in heaven. Most little girls change their favorite princess from time to time and dd is no different. Ariel was the first one to win her heart though and if asked her favorite, she will still mention her with whoever the other one is at the time.

With a huge amount of satisfaction to what we’d accomplished so far we headed towards Jungle Cruise to see if it was running. We’d met 3 sets of characters in just over an hour. Dd said “That was great. How come we never did that before?” I told her that usually each of those usually has a 40 minute to an hour long wait.

 

[luvmy2babies]

Jungle Cruise had a 5 minute wait. I had to look 3 times to make sure it wasn’t 25, 35, 45, you get it. On our first trip, I had seen the standby sign and thought it said 5 minutes. Instead of getting a fast pass before going on the Magic Carpet ride, we just got in line for the Carpet ride only to get off and find the sign really said 55 minutes. It really was a 5 minute wait, no doubt due to the weather. I ended up being seated in the one spot in the boat that wasn’t covered by the shelter. I made sure the children were under it though.

This is one of my favorite spots in the ride. The children think this rhino is funny. Another of my favorite spots: the back side of water

The elephants.

After that we walked out of Adventure Land. We went through Frontier Land. I was hoping to find Frontier Land Donald Duck, but I didn’t see him. I’m sure they moved him somewhere under cover, but I never found him. Dd spotted Splash Mountain running and wanted to watch. I was surprised to hear her say it didn’t look that scary.

Maybe one day she said. I kind of hope so. I’d like to ride it. I also have a feeling ds will want to ride everything he can when he reaches height and I’m trying to prepare myself. We probably have at least 2 years before ds hits 40 inches. If she still doesn’t want to ride it, at least she’ll probably be old enough to wait for us at the exit.

Next it was back to our favorite things. Any guesses?

After Philharmagic, we went to Columbia Harbor House for lunch. It was yummy as usual. Then we headed back to the resort to rest, get cleaned up, and gather dd’s things for BBB. They played in puddles and splashed me all the way to the bus stop. I’m walking and get splashed. I say “Which one of you splashed me?” Dd would just laugh and ds would say, “Mommy, you’re so funny.” I’d give them both the “I’m watching you sign” and we’d all laugh. I could tell they'd had a good day so far.

The orginal plan was to leave and have lunch at the resort, but we hadn’t eaten at CHH on the first day like I planned and I didn’t want to miss eating there. It’s our favorite QS. Plus, I wanted to make sure and get lunch in ds in case he fell asleep. Guess that was a good decision. Here they are on the bus back to the resort.

Coming up it gets wetter, but also more magical.

 

[tippANDbb]

Aw, I loved reading your TR & seeing the pictures of your kids - they looked like they were having the time of the lives! I can't wait until you post more!

Yay! Another reader! They did have a wonderful time and I did too. Thanks for reading along.

 

[luvmy2babies]

Once we got back to the resort, I stopped at the resort gift shop and bought two umbrellas. I had seen quite a few in the parks and the wind had picked up making me feel we needed more than the poncho and jackets, especially with what we had coming up that evening.

When we got back to the room, we all undressed and got dry. Ds kept sleeping. That’s how tired he was. He slept for about an hour and some change. I gave him a cup and blow dried dd’s hair. It had gotten wet in the rain when she took off her jacket hood declaring “It’s not that bad.”

Her dress was in plastic, but I had a feeling I should do more. So, I switched park bags to the smaller of the two backpacks I had on the plane. I put her dress, shoes and accessories in there with all of our normal stuff. As it got closer to time to go, dd asked if we really had to go.

When I asked what the problem was, she mentioned the rain. I told her we would be alright. She could wear her flip flops so her feet would dry faster and I had gotten us umbrellas now to keep us drier and we’d be spending most of the evening inside.

Then the truth came out. “Will the lady be gentle with my hair?” “Yes, my child.” So, I got her dressed with a camisole and shorts and put a t-shirt. Then we got our rain gear on and headed out. It wasn’t raining that hard, so we put our umbrellas up and waited at the bus stop. Other people were standing back under the shelter waiting. Dd kept taking off her hood and dropping her umbrella saying “It’s not that bad.” I reminded her that her hair would be easier to comb if it was not wet.” Finally the bus came after about 10 minutes and we were on our way.

Once we got to MK, the rain and wind had picked up a lot. Dd relieved to be without socks, found every puddle she could on the way. Ds was in the stroller under the cover. One puddle got the best of her. It was huge and deep. It came up past her ankles. There were quite a few people walking through it and dd wanted a turn. She lost her flip flop 3 times and it got harder to retrieve it each time because she kept laughing harder. Ds said, “sister shoe is a boat”. She finally caught it and we made our way to bag check and into the park.

It was raining harder, but according to the clock on the railroad station, we had some time so we sought shelter at our favorite show. You’d think we’d get tired of it, but we had not managed to. Then we hung out in the gift shop at the exit and looked around for a while. I picked up a couple of pins. I looked at the receipt and saw we still had some time. Oh, I should say here I forgot to include my cell phone when I was changing bags. We were using it to keep up with the time. I knew we had time for another ride, so we got on Small World.

Still unaware of the exact time but wanting to get out of the rain, we went to BBB to see if we could check in yet. I was glad to be able to park ds’ stroller under there in the hallway. I told the boutique hostess I wasn’t sure what time it was, but we didn’t want to be late. She checked us in and asked if we had a dress to put on. I said we did and she showed us where dd could change.

Thankfully the dressing room, which was adorable, had room for all of us. Once she had her dress on, I pulled out some jewelry for her to choose from. I had some bracelet/necklace sets I’d gotten on ebay. Her mouth dropped. “I didn’t know you had that.” I told her I couldn’t tell her everything. I could pull some magic too. We all laughed. Then I pulled out the sticker earrings for her to choose a pair. There were 36 pair on the sheet. She chose the shells because of Ariel. I put them on her.

Here’s the “before” picture I took after she was dressed and had her accessories on.

She got all settled in the chair and they gave her the pamphlet to choose a hair style. She looked as if she was pondering her decision. My eyes got big because we had already talked about this and she had decided she would get the bun, which is why I bought the dress I bought. I’d be open to something else were she dressed differently, but I just gently reminded her that we had already looked at the hairstyles and made the decision. I think she sat there scratching her chin longer to tease me. She eventually said, “Yes, we talked about it already and I want this one.” I could finally sit back. I gave the Fairy Godmother In Training the comb and brush we’d brought with us. She didn’t use the comb though. She pulled out a brand new one and used that. We got it to take home afterwards.

We finally got started.

I will say here that if you have a regular point and shoot digital camera like I do, you don’t need the flash for this part. Those lights on the mirror behind dd and her FGIT were plenty. When the flash was one, the picture wasn’t good.

She eventually got the crown and bun in and said it was time for pixie dust in her hair. I really liked her strategy of talking to dd pretty constantly while doing her hair. She talked about what it was like to be a FGIT and all of the characters dd had met. Dd hardly thought about getting her hair combed.

Thankfully the photo pass photographer appeared. He got a better shot than I did. This part excited ds a bit.

Next it was time for some makeup. She picked out her eye shadow. She chose pink to match her dress.

Picking out and getting lip gloss.

Face jewels

Getting her nails done. She chose pink again. We got both bottles to take home.

She got the sash on and the FGIT started talking to her about the magic of being a princess getting her ready for the “big reveal”.

Would our trek through the wind and rain be worth it? I mean I could tell dd had thoroughly enjoyed the treatment. But I admit my heart was beating a bit faster waiting for her reaction when she was turned to the mirror.

 

[myasma]

Hi, I just read your TR and am really enjoying it. Can't wait to read more and find out how the big reveal went.

 

[tippANDbb]

Aw, your DD's visit to the boutique was absolutely magical! I can't wait for the big reveal! I bet she loved it! What an awesome experience that must have been for your little girl

BTW, I'm also reading your PTR & I'm loving that as well!

 

[luvmy2babies]

Hi, I just read your TR and am really enjoying it. Can't wait to read more and find out how the big reveal went.

I am glad you have been enjoying the report.

It took me a while to respond because I just read your entire Caringbridge journal. Your courage has touched me deeply. Such a brave and beautiful baby your MyaRose. I pray God continually keep you at peace in your journey with an angel on your shoulder.

Aw, your DD's visit to the boutique was absolutely magical! I can't wait for the big reveal! I bet she loved it! What an awesome experience that must have been for your little girl

BTW, I'm also reading your PTR & I'm loving that as well!

Thanks, she did especially enjoy the attention. Next update coming up.
