Well, my ticker said it was to be our "We love Mickey" trip, but it quickly turned into our "We love Donald Duck" trip. It became even more evident to DH and I that "duck" (or "dut" said with some serious toddler intensity) is our little man's favorite word, giving Donald a definite head start in the race for "Henry's Favorite Character." Two months ago, Mickey was his man, but as many people know, toddler's opinions can change as quickly as their moods...
This trip is not without it's adventures. I am beginning to think our family cannot have a vacation without at least one dramatic event occurring. If you read my last TR you will recall the Chef Mickey's Incident, along with the Great 'Ohana Debacle and DH and I learning where every single bathroom is in the AK. While the events in this report are not nearly as embarrassing - I promise the drama is still here....right up until the trip home!
So for those of you who might not know me yet, I'm Brook. Wife of Joe, Mommy to Henry. Henry is our little man, 16 months old at the time of the trip - his second trip to WDW.
Here is a pic of our crew from our trip in November:
We have different haircuts, and unfortunately have gained a few pounds due to binge eating during the holidays...
This trip was our first trip "Home", staying at SSR on Developer Points in a 1 bedroom for 7 nights and a Studio for 1. It was loosely planned and we were going to be purposeful in taking things slower and as they came, less ADRs, more things up in the air. This adventure will bring us to each of the parks, Kennedy Space Center, a DIS meet, experiencing Disney through the eyes of a toddler and to many firsts for our family.
Over 2,000 pictures were taken so prepare yourself to be flooded with pictures again (I'm sure you are so upset over that...).
