Walt Disney World 2010!!

Day 1
 We flew out on Thursday, May 13, 2010 at 10am. Not only was this Daniel's first trip but it was his first time flying as well. I did not realize how helpful the airport employees are when you have a baby in a stroller. We were directed to go through the handicap lane and bypass the entire line to security. I think we set a record! It probably took us 15 minutes from the time my dad dropped us off until we arrived at the gate and we had to check bags. It was awesome.

Anyways, Daniel did great on the flight. He fell asleep about 10 minutes before take-off and woke up about 30 minutes after we got in the air. He did not seem to have any problems with his ears. He loved looking out the window and at all the people on the plane. He is definitely a people watcher like his daddy! We landed at around 11:35am, Daniel was awake and did not seem to mind.

We took the Disney Magical Express to our resort so Daniel was on a bus for the first time! He did great on it as well. Daddy held him while I fed him some baby food. In about 30 minutes we were at our resort and ready for a nap!

After napping we made plans to meet some friends for dinner in Downtown Disney. We went to the pool and then went a little early and did some shopping. We ate at Cap'n Jack's with Nic, Suzette, Nikki and Laney. We had a great time and were ready to get some sleep.

Day 2
We got up, ate breakfast and started our day at Magic Kingdom! We went to the Monster's Inc. Laugh Floor first. He had a good time. We were chosen to be on the big screen as the "2-headed human". After that we went to Mickey's Toontown Fair and rode the Walt Disney World Railroad. We then rode the Tea Cups. By then it was about lunch time and Daniel was Sound asleep in his stroller.

It was time to go back to the resort. Mimi and Pops would be arriving soon! We took a nap and got up a little while after Mimi and Pops came in. Brian and I went back to Magic Kingdom to ride Splash Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain, Buzz Light Year and Space Mountain. Daniel went to the Pool with Mimi and Pops. We met them for dinner at the T-Rex Cafe in Downtown Disney. Brian and I then went to Epcot for the Magic Hours. About 10pm we were exhausted and went back to the hotel.

Day 3
We took the day off from the parks and went to the Pool, relaxed, went to Whispering Canyon for lunch and did some shopping in Downtown Disney. Daniel had to get used to the pool but he eventually liked it. I think the water was too cold at first. He met a little girl that was 10 days younger than him and I think she took his mind off the cold water : ) It was a pretty relaxing day.

Day 4
We got up, went to breakfast and then to Animal Kingdom. Daniel was ready to go! Every morning he was excited to get out the door.We rode Expedition Everest first. This was a great ride for Daddy, Mimi and Mommy. Pops and Daniel stayed behind in the shade. Next we rode the TriceraTop Spin. Daniel loved it, as did the rest of us. Then we made our way to Dinasour. Daniel could not ride this, but we did the parent trade off and it worked quite nicely. We really wanted to go see Mickey but when we got to where he was supposed to be he was gone. We did however, see Lilo and Stitch! Daniel and Daddy were so excited! Daniel fell asleep with excitement, lol.  The last thing was the Kilimanjaro Safaris. This was what mommy really wanted to do. Daniel was more interested in the lady in front of us than the animals!

For lunch we ate at the Rainforest Cafe in Animal Kingdom. Now it was 3:00pm and we needed a nap! We went back to the resort and layed down. Daniel decided he would only sleep for 30 minutes. We went to the pool for a little while and then it started getting cloudy. It looked like it was going to storm. The pool closed and we went in to try to take a nap again! This time Mommy and Daniel napped for at least an hour and a half! About 8:30pm or so we headed to Hollywood Studios. First we went to The Magic of Disney Animation, then we headed to the Great Movie Ride. The big one I wanted to do was the Toy Story ride. The line is always long, but we only waited about 30 minutes. Mimi and Pops took Daniel back to the resort at around 10:00pm and Mommy and Daddy stayed for the Magic Hours. We rode Star Tours and did a little shopping then went back to the resort. It was a very long day so we all slept great!

Day 5
This was the last day of vacation. We got up, packed, ate breakfast and headed to Downtown Disney for our last shopping trip. We checked our luggage and checked in for our flight at the resort. Around noon we headed back to catch the Disney Magical Express and head to the airport. We ate lunch at the Outback at the airport and boarded the plane. Daniel fell asleep again before take off and woke up about 30 minutes later. He was great on the plane.We made it home and back to reality!
