1. Stay on site, not matter what.

2. Look into attending the Very Merry Mickey Christmas Party. Your baby may be too young to appreciate it, but it sounds like fun.

3. Avoid MK on Christmas day--Epcot would probably be the best park.

Check out all the Holiday storytellers at Epcot. Each country has it's own Santa or holiday story teller to talk about their regional holiday traditions. It would be cute to have pictures of your little one with Santas from around the world.

We were not big fans of CP. I can't imagine doing it if it's cold like it was last year with a toddler. I saw people out there with babies that were too cold and too tired last year.

We loved MVMCP, but it is also a night event that will keep you out with a little later than what your little one may be able to tolerate.

We enjoyed the Christmas trees at AK. They are inventively decorated over at Camp Minnie Mickey for various characters. It's kind of neat trying to figure out which tree is for which character. I would have loved to have had some of the ornaments from the Stitch tree.

Anyway, I know that you folks will have lots to celebrate. Enjoy. Maggie
