We've booked the babies 1st trip and she's not even born yet! Dec 2010!

Yes!! Go to PARKS menu across the top and click on the theme park you want the hours for. Don't click on Park Hours! An overview of the park will load, scroll down to the menu on the left side of the screen and click on Calendar, choose the month you want to view and then click the day to see the schedule!

I feel privilege I get to hear about the details in person.

I have been thinking on and off about the Dance Party and I don't think we will be able to do it. The only night we have EEMH at DHS is Monday evening, the night before Lilian's birthday. We have a 8:00 a.m. BBB appointment, so it will be early morning so no late night for us. If Disney happens to throw in more EEMH I would definitely be willing to go do it, given we have PH.

I love the themed dinner ideas. I am so sorry your little one isn't feeling well, I hope she is better soon. I like your spreadsheet, mine is colorful like that too.

What is Playhouse Disney Dance party??

 

[wlwilliams9]

Good Morning Nickie!! During EMH at DHS, Playhouse Disney puts on a dance party. It's in the place where the Playhouse Disney show is. They play Radio Disney songs, have smoke machines & bubbles that fall from the ceiling, a balloon artist making balloon animals for the kids and Micky and Minnie make an appearance. The kids and parents just dance around the room. Emily really loved it year before last, it's just a fun place for the kiddos to boogie!!

No way!! I cant believe I didnt know about this. I kind of think I know "everything about Disney!!" Is it for just the AM EMH? hmmmm I am going to have to plan this in... my kids would LOVE it!

Love the spreadsheet! I saw yours last year and decided to make my own so I can officially attribute you to being the one who made my disney planning obsession 10 times greater. Although my Fiance now thinks I'm a freak but he reaps the benefits when were down there .

 

[ladybugmom]

Hi Wendy!! I'm not sure how I missed your PTR but I'm here now--will read everything tomorrow and catch up on things! You probably already know this but we're going to be in WDW Nov. 27/28-Dec. 4/5 (still working on dates) and we're staying at WL!! Can't wait to be there to see all of the Christmas decorations!!

 

[jngwright]

Just so you know, I have started saying Whoo Hooty, shake your booty!! to my boys, and they look at me like I just can't stop myself from saying it....

Are you still doing C25K? I am on week 4 and it really ramps up the running-but is definitely doable. (Maybe not with a 50lb stroller)

Hope you are having a good week!! We leave in 48 hours and I AM FREAKING OUT!! (with excitement!)

 

[leamom2princesses]

Just stopping by to say "Hi!". We are trying out the week of Oct. 2 this year so I will let you and Nickie know about crowds ecetera. We were going the end of September but Joe couldn't get one of the days off and the girls would miss school so he talked me into fall break. I hope it's quiet that week. Touring plans is showing 2-4. Should be pretty good! Now if I could just get a discount that would be awesome.

 

[BippityBoo]

HI! I could not help but come and read when I saw your PTR title!! You sound JUST like me! We have all of our trips planned out until 2012 It is fun that way, isn't it? We will be at the WL December 11-16th!! Join in my PTR if you would like. I could use your expert advice

Looking forward to more

 

[stephielela]

First of all let me say both of your girls are adorable!

I read through your TR and I LOVE the movie night ideas! It's a great way to get excited and express it, even when all the planning is done! We are going to start that in our house too!

I'll be looking forward to more!

 

[Charlefours]

Hey Wendy! Great seeing you, Emily and Eva yesterday. DD started to cry when we were walking back to the car saying "I miss Emmmilllyyyy."

Summer is almost here then we can have all sorts of fun!!

Hey Alison! I do love my spreadsheet! Mike thinks my spreadsheet is is crazy too, but you're right, he reeps the rewards from my planning!!

I can't believe you are getting married next month!! How exciting! I hope all of your plans are coming together without any stress!!

Hi Becky! Hopefully we'll see you at the WL before you leave. I think we are going to arrive on the 3rd now and we're skipping SW & US/IOA! More on that to come!!

I enjoyed your FB updates from your May trip!

I can't wait to see Disney all Christmas'd up!! I've planned some resort hopping time so we can see all of the deluxe resort's decorations too!

Just so you know, I have started saying Whoo Hooty, shake your booty!! to my boys, and they look at me like I just can't stop myself from saying it....

Hi Jill!! I'm so happy I could add to your list of crazy things to say!! I'm a nut and get looks all the time!!

I am still working on the C25K, but I think it's going to take me 18 weeks instead of 9 with the stroller!! I have to start week 1 over because I have been sick this week and haven't been out, but I enjoy the program and I have to be able to keep up with Nickie next Oct so that'll keep me going!

Woo Hooty, shake your booty for leaving tomorrow!! Have a great trip and YOU BETTER BE WRITING A TR!!!!!

Hey Leanne! You DVC owners thinking you can go to Disney whenever you want now!!

I can't wait to hear how the weather is that week. We had originally planned on going that week this year because my bday is the 9th, but as you know, we decided on Dec instead! Next year, for sure! I can't wait to experience MNSSHP and the F&W Festival. You'll have to let me know how those events are!!

Can't wait to read your TR!

Hi Stephanie! We had fun at the mall! Mike couldn't believe that we went to the mall and didn't buy anything!

Emily cried, "I miss Liliaaaaaaaaan!" half way home, until she finally just fell asleep! Uh, those crazy girls!! They wear each other out!!

We do need to get planning our summer activities....zoo, park, beach, Disney?

Hey Wendy!!! Hope all is well... Looks like we have the same plan a few days!!! We will be a MK on 12/6 and Epcot of 12/7 too!!! We are also going to MVMCP the same night too!!! What time are you planning on going over to the party on the 9th? We have dinner ressies at LeCellier at 4:50p and plan on hopping on the monorail right from dinner to the MK.

 

[Charlefours]

I was thinking the same thing when we both left without even going into one store! When I synced my pedometer--we walked more there, than any time at the park thus far. Now only if there was a hill to walk up (or in the case of the mall, a ramp )

Love the new itinerary! Looking forward to finding out if you get the ADRs you want. Sending pixie dust your way
