Due to popular votes, I'm posting my trip plans-hope that's ok!!
A little background (more details in my PTR w/ link in my signature):
General info: we've already ordered our APs (before price increase!!!) and we'll be taking a "nap break" daily
Sept trip: DH, DS4, DS20months, me and DMIL going for free dining! We're staying at ASSp. This will be our first time staying on property and our second trip to Disney. We will be celebrating DH and DS4's birthday on this trip. They share a birthday in July and we just can't go right now...this is the first time we can go.
Dec trip: DH, DS4, DS2, me and our two friends. We will be staying at AKL-CL and our friends are staying at a value resort. It will be their first time on property but far from their first Disney trip. Looking for a good idea for something for them-they've been so amazing since we moved here, couldn't ask for better friends!
It's only fair that if we're going for DH and DS4's birthdays, that we should go for the other kid's and mine of course! My "baby" will be two a couple weeks before we go and my birthday's actually while we're there!! We've added the dining plan to help keep our (my) meal plans afordable.
The Sept Plans:
9/17 Leave work at noon and be on the road by 1. Convince the boys to sleep in the van on the way there. Planning on being to Disney by 7, either having dinner on the way there or once we get to Disney.
9/18 morning - MK, afternoon - DHS
B: Crystal Palace 10:10 (trying to get a better time for this or CM's...)
L: Chef Mickey's 1:00
D: ??
9/19 morning - AK, afternoon - MNSSHP
B: Tusker house 8:00
L: ??
Cool Dude appointment for DS4 at 3:40 (this is more for me than him since I don't have little girls!)
D: Tony's Town Square 4:30
9/20 morning - DHS (if the boys get up), afternoon - EPCOT
B: ??

Dec trip Plans
12/10 Leave work at noon, be on the road by 1, trying to convince the boys to nap in the car. Hopefully be to Disney by 7 to check in. Our friends are probably riding with us to save on gas.

D: Liberty Tree Tavern 4:30
12/12 morning - rest, afternoon - EPCOT

Am going to order a custom cake at lunch to celebrate DS2 and my birthday. DS2 loves Nemo and Dis (aka Mickey Mouse) so that will probably be his cake.
12/13 morning - MK, afternoon - DHS
B: Chef Mickey's 7:05
L: ??
D: Sci-Fi Dine In
12/14 morning - MK, afternoon - depature

Let me know what you think. We're really hooked on Disney now but we've got so much to learn!! I'm trying to fit a lot more in our Sept trip since DMIL is coming and it's her first time with our family. December is looking more like a laid back trip.
