Disney: Days 2 & 3

Tuesday was one long day!! We started out the day at Hollywood Studios. The rides were limited since we know Maddyn doesn't have the tolerence for the 3D glasses. We did Toy Story which was ok and then Playhouse Disney which she LOVED. Pooh, Mickey and Tigger- she was in heaven :)

Our mishap for the day happened when Maddyn decided to unbuckle her stroller straps and get out while we were still moving and she fell and skinned her knee. She got a Mickey band-aid from 1st aid, but that's all we've been hearing about for 2 days now. Boo Boo on my knee, mommy. I have a Mickey band-aid. Other than that, MGM was lots of fun.

We came back in the afternoon, napped and headed to Mickey's very Merry Christmas Party. It was SO much fun!! We first saw the parade. It was great b/c it was better than the electric lights parade, and all Christmas themed. Maddyn was in awe. We had front-row curb seats and sat with friends. She was all smiles! After the parade, we went back and rode some rides. Most of the audience left after the first parade or went to line up for the 2nd parade, so the rides were EMPTY. We walked right on to everything. Maddyn took a great nap and had a second wind so it was perfect! We also got to meet Minnie. We were a little weary b/c Maddyn doesn't really care for characters. She was scared of Minnie at first. I got out the camera and got a photo, but then as we were walking away, she gave Minnie a High 5!! I was so bummed I missed it, but she was all smiles!!! We might have had a breakthrough :) We caught the fireworks and then left. A very late night- with Maddyn asleep in the stroller the way back to the car.

Today we slept in b/c of our late night last night. Then because it was so warm out (high 80s) we swam in the pool this morning. It was sooo nice. Maddyn is such a fish, she loves that water!!! We napped and then headed back into Magic Kingdom. Today we did a few of the 'lesser known rides' that we usually don't do. Dave got a chance to do Space Mountain, and it was just a very relaxed and low key evening.

Tomorrow the plan is to hit Animal Kingdom in the morning. We were going to skip that one, but doing MK tomorrow and Friday (and pretty much every day this week) gets a little old, so we wanted to mix it up. So the morning AK, swim in the afternoon and then we have a fun dinner tomorrow at Hoop De Doo Revue. It's an interactive dinner that will be lots of fun. We might (if we have time) hit the MGM Lights festival, we'll just see.

That's it for now!! I'll check in tomorrow or Friday :)
