Morning EMH attract the crowds, so if you can hold off and go to AK that day instead--it will be quiet I bet. You know your family best--do what you think is going to be the best situation for your family.
dropping by to see if you have let the cat out of the bag yet
I think I agree with the poster ahead of me about AK..it will probably be really empty that day
But I continue to make them anyway. 
Ideas?
I'm happy to be a co-sleeper. DH is happy to be a co-sleeper, but he'll be even happier to be able to spread out on his own bed! 
) 
We were co-sleepers too, for MANY years. I think requesting the bed rails should be first priority b/c you can't move the beds at all at Pop to push them against a wall or anything. (I do remember something about being able to do this at one of the other value's). I can't think of anything else to ask for- seems like you've got it covered.
My kids love those pop jets too- they have them at a zoo near us (a yucky zoo that I won't ever go back to but I digress) and we were in near meltdown mode in the mid-afternoon heat and they saved us! It was all smiles after two minutes playing in them.
Ok, WHAT CAT do you have in a bag?!?!?! Curiosity is killing it!
Oh, I know. This weekend, I swear! There was too much warm weather this week for me to sit down and properly dis!for doing this alone most of the time.
Those pics are adorable!
Yeah, without bedrails we'll just have to wear them out at the parks and then recline the stroller seats.Yeah, that maybe would work for J.J., but Sydney opens her eyes every 5 minutes to make sure I'm still 2 inches away from her. If not, she will not be a happy girl. Don't want to make those other hotel guests angry!
Cute side note (and what kind of pre-trip-reporter would I be if I didn't take AMPLE time for side notes, really?) when J.J. gets tired he gets extra affectionate. You can tell he's tired when he tells you, "I just want you to hold me" or he starts saying, "I love you Mommy." out of nowhere Sometimes he pets the baby and says she's "the best baby sister in the whole world"! Don't ask him if he wants more babies though, because he is fiercely anti-more siblings. Strangest thing ever because he has completely and totally loved Sydney from day one. He's crazy about her! Once while he was being all affectionate to Sydney I asked him if he wanted two baby sisters and he sat up, looked me square in the eye and said, "NO. JUST ONE."
Your location looks great! We were in the 80s building and it was a bit of a trek to the food court, but we cut across the parking lot to the buses too, so at least we were close to those!
Close to the busses is first priority. Close to re-fillable pop is a close second.
I'm not sure about what is offered in refillables b/c I have soda drinkers when we are on vacation, so I didn't look! Juice maybe? Maybe someone can confirm this.
Yeah, from a health perspective I'm glad he doesn't like pop. From a "what is he going to drink" perspective, I'm not too sure. I think they make shelf-stable soymilk juice boxes. Maybe. I know they do rice milk, and he'll drink that just fine too, so we can always pack them or ship them to ourselves if need be.
I hope you get the area in Pop you would like! We put in couple requests which I really hope are honored because they are due to medical reasons.
Can he drink lemonade? I thought they had lemonade available too.
)
Do you think anyone will get it? Even if they don't, we'll just enjoy it ourselves...we're losers like that! And I need an Ellen wig! Maybe she sells some on her show website...I should jump over there and see what she has! DH thought that maybe she could be a giant bug, like a butterfly or something since they had giant bugs back in the dino age, but I thought that if people didn't get what we were already, that would make it impossible for them to get. I bet I could find a giant butterfly costume for cheaper, but that pink dino is pretty darn cute!
I love the dresses. I think I could do it! I'm going to give it a try! Thanks for sharing the instructions!
