Exactly the reason we stayed away from the Yacht Club for so long. When I was growing up, we used to have summer vacations on the Cape every year. It seemed like it was too much like home. Funny though, while we were at the resort, I didn't think it compared to Cape Cod at all. Well, the design is similar, but Disney has definitely put their stamp on it.
lovesdumbo, it's actually pretty typical for boys to develop their fine motor skills at such an early age. In my experience, it's usually the girls who are the talkers and boys are the explorers. They like to figure everything out. They have the larger size Legos, I think they are called Duplos, so less of a choking hazard for your younger ones. You might want to try puzzles too. Trust me, he will eventually be a whiz on the computer and video games, so there's nothing wrong with holding off on that for a while. What types of games does he use for Leapster? You might want to try something a little more challenging, either along the puzzle solving or just an age group higher.
We'll be contemplating a move when DS finishes high school. That gives me a little over 3 years. I'm raising my kids in the house that I grew up in, so it's going to be very hard to leave it. My DH really wants to move to Texas. My youngest DD will probably love the South because of high popularity of cheerleading. We'll see how it goes. I tend not to plan very far in advance.
