I love that picture of the safari, so sweet!

Thanks, we love riding it.

Happy 12 days! Your trip is getting ever closer! We love the safari as well, and that is a very sweet photo of your DD watching the zebras!

Thanks! Can't wait to hear about your weekend trip to F&W. Think you'll have it done before we leave. I'll need your tips for our trip.

Did you have a favorite food stand?

how wonderful!!! I can't wait to begin packing for my trip! I have Orlando weather on my desktop and it makes me sick seeing 90 degrees in Oct like this!!

We are hoping for mid-80's, but hey, I'll take any kind of nice weather that I can get.

We are getting so excited! After we put a sticker on the chart today A. said, "look Mommy, only 12 little Mickey's and we'll be at Disney Wowld."

Yes, the ziploc tip takes all the thinking out of mornings. I am thinking about labeling them "Day 1" and so forth this trip too. I put everything in there, hair bows, undies, socks, clothes and then in the morning I can just throw it at Rob while I'm getting ready.

In 12 days? Judging by the last one, probably not. My biggest tip that I got from the Food and Wine thread is to share all your food -- that way you can cover more ground. We loved, loved, loved the Canada, Ireland, New Orleans, Mexico, and Puerto Rico kiosks. In fact all the food we tried was just delicious!

I am a sworn zip lock packer too. I think I will repack after washing clothes even next trip... so much easier.

Less than two weeks- hooray!

I didn't think so, but I thought I would ask.

I've heard such great things about Ireland on all the podcasts! YUMMY!

It is the easiest way to travel with little ones for sure! I hadn't thought about repacking in the bags after laundry day, but I think I will do the same. Great idea!

11 Days!!!

B. and I are going to Target today to get the rest of our things for the trip while A. is at Preschool this morning. YEAH!

I think I'm going to do online check-in tomorrow. We really just want to check-in quickly so we can get our KTTW cards and dining and head right to HS for TSM.

Today our picture is our traditional first ride at the MK, Dumbo! We always head there first so we don't have to stand in a long line.

If you like seafood, the Fisherman's Pie is to-die-for! We had to get it twice! The Bailey's cake was very good, also.

 

[Lady Lallie]

I'm intrigued about online check in but I am not quite sure if I will use it or now.

 

[Charleston Princess]

I have done the online check-in for both of our last two trips and have been very pleased. Both times everything was ready to go including our rooms.

I'm not really into seafood, but Bailey's cake sounds WONDERFUL!!!

Yeah, I'm not exactly sure how to do it but I thought i'd give it a try. I'll let you know how it goes.

Oh, that would be wonderful! I'm not sure we will have time to unpack but it would be nice to drive straight to the room and collapse after our SciFi lunch.

Hey all! I set up a twitter account if you would like to follow along:

I'm finally all caught up! I was already behind, and then away for the weekend and still recuperating.

Can you believe you are just 10 days out?!

I am really enjoying all the pictures of your adorable kids! That one of A looking onto the Castle.... so cute!

Did you find enough clothes for B? If I knew I could find Henry's clothing, and make it to the post office, and the clothes would get to you in time-I could send along a good assortment of shirts he wore at 14 months. I think most are 12 or 18 month size. But, chances are it wouldn't happen with my crazy work lately. 2 more weeks, 2 more weeks!

Most of his shirts were from Wal-Mart or Target-I couldn't find any baby clothes either at the Disney store. Zazzle.com lets you create your own and they have a HUGE assortment of Disney stuff.

Today is online check-in day. I'm still debating if I want to do it or not myself. I have a couple room requests so I'm going to think about them and then probably try it. Let me know how it goes as I'm sure you'll get to it before I do.

Thanks for the offer! That is really sweet. Yes, he has enough shirts. A very nice and generous Dis friend sent me two, I found one at Walmart, and the one A. wore on our first trip fits him! So, that seems good.

I'm so happy for you that you get to be a SAHM. It's the hardest and best job I've ever had!

10 More Days!!!

So, this morning I log on to do our online check-in and it says they can't find the reservation. So, I try again, and again, nothing. 1 Then I realize that it's 10 days until we get into ORLANDO and 11 days until we check into SSR. Sooooo, I'll be doing online check-in tomorrow.

Today our pictures are from the Teacups. As you can see, A. really likes them.

 

[Lady Lallie]

Toooooo funny about the online check in!! That is totally something I would do but I'd probably call Disney and ask them why it wasn't working before I realized.

You know, I almost had my hand on the phone. I did that recently with our health insurance. Rob's company changed carriers and I was doing the online register and it wouldn't let me register. So I called them to ask why and it seems I forgot to check the box "I agree" in big red letters at the bottom of the page.

 

[Charleston Princess]

Woo hoo for ten days!!!

A looks so happy on the teacups! I have to admit they are one of my favorites, too!

 

[marieNJkitty]

Yeah!!! 10 days to go!!!

I've haven't taken the kids on the tea cups yet. Do you think it is alright to take a newly turned 2 year old on them? Its been a long time since I have been on them and I can't remember how fast they went.

I started packing a little and am waiting on a couple more shirts to come in the mail before I put things in ziplock bags. This is the first time I've flown on a plane with both kids and I'm nervous about how I am going to limit my packing!
