Echoing the go with the flow sentiment.
Personally we take mid day breaks, it's what works for us. We like going to the parks late at night, so a typical day is Park 1 until 2PM or so, room from 2:30-5:30 for lunch and naps, Magic Kingdom from 6 to close. Usually get back to the room around 11/11:30PM and kids are bathed and asleep by midnight. The last WDW trip DS was 4 and 3 months, and DD turned 6 we didn't use the stroller. They were fine without it. We don't usually eat a formal dinner as my kids are grazers.
Everyone tours differently though, you have to figure out what works for you.
I will say though I might modify things if we went in January. We visit at busier times when MK is usually open until 11PM or later, and we stay at Bay Lake Tower which cuts down a lot on the travel time needed for mid day breaks. We felt we lost a lot of time during our 2015 trip (at AOA) due to travel. It felt like we spent 1/3 of the day either waiting for or riding the bus. With things closing earlier in Jan, we would probably forego the midday break take a couple rest and refuel breaks at the park somewhere.
