Okay, guys, this is really weird. I had all your responses written out, thought they posted, and see now that they haven't. Huh.
I just read your last two updates....YAY for Squirt nursing well! I exclusively pumped with Henry for 8 months as well. Not fun. Moooooooooooo! And then having to deal with the intolerance on top of it??!
I think your plans of doing a sit-down once a day is a good one with the intolerance, like you said, at least one meal a day you won't have to stress/worry about it and can eat more normally.
Someone gave me a onesie for Squirt that says "M is for Milk" and it has the cutest cow on it. I just had to laugh, even though this is a person who has no idea that I am nursing, or that it would be so funny to me. We have a lot of nicknames in my household. I'm the milk factory, the ****ie lady. MJS is the diaper changer, among other things. You have to laugh, you know?
I have truly grown to enjoy winging it. We always have a loose schedule, and I always have tons of ideas on what we could do, but we always let the day roll and just go with it. Part of me wants to run around and hit everything, but with hubby and child, its more enjoyable with them to relax and do whatever we are feeling. Someday though, I'm ditching them for a while and going craZy in the park solo!
This is how we always did vacations before I found the DIS. We would plan dining, and nothing else. I'm really looking forward to getting back to that. Those unexpected moments are always the best memories.
But, I'm definitely with you. Some day I'm taking a solo trip and doing whatever I want.
We also arrive on the 26th and will probably hit up MK that day at some point. MSEP is running that night, so we'll most likely swing in for that - maybe we'll see ya there!
How did I not realize that we're going to be there at the same time?
I'm definitely hoping to see MSEP! I haven't seen it in years. I'd love a mini meet with you if you're interested (providing the kiddos are amenable LOL).
I like your plans! I don't know if I will ever be able to just 'go with the flow' at Disney ever again. Maybe I over plan... i donno...
I don't think you're an overplanner, because you've always been willing to chuck plans and go with the flow when needed.
I've been wanting to try out Kona for dinner. I think you will really enjoy it there. Just be prepared for it to be loud. We have walked past Kona during dinner hours and it is always loud.
Good to know. Our ressie is pretty early, so hopefully it won't be too bad.
I think Nemo would love to eat at CMs. I know it is up in the air now... but maybe, just maybe, your mom, in a way, will be there with you and the family. I think that eating there, along with saving POTC and HM for last is a nice way to keep the tradition going.
Nemo's actually gotten shy of characters lately. So it'll really depend on how Squirt reacts to them. If he's in love with characters on this trip, then I'll seriously considering going to Chef Mickey's, but if he cries the first time he sees Mickey, then why go through a meal like that?
So glad you want to try Kona. I think Crystal Palace would be a great place if you chose not to do Chef Mickey's.
I didn't even think of it as an option. I'm going to run it by MJS and see what he thinks.
I know this will be a bittersweet trip, but I also know that celebrating for Tink will ake it more sweet than bitter.
True, very true.
I admit, I can't imagine life without hoppers. I need that freedom, that flexibility as you just never know what a trip might throw at you.
Exactly!
I think your plans look great and you know, the world will not end if you make an ADR and don't keep it. Ssshhhh don't tell anyone. Sometimes having options, and choosing not to use them, are what keeps us sane.
Do you mean you won't revoke my DIS status?
Oh, congratulations! I am so happy for you. These years are priceless, I know you will enjoy them.
