I just got all caught up with your trip report. I the countdown facts! What a great idea, plus I'm learning stuff as we go along

[islandgirl]

Your countdown!!! Can't wait to read more!

I can't wait for the tea cups - it's been too long!

I can't believe we're less than 3 weeks away!!! I don't really have much done - although the Disney box is getting fuller and fuller and I have brought up one suitcase. I don't think I'll be packing clothes until I can see the 10-15 day forecast. Currently it appears it's in the upper 70s, even 80s, but gets to 40s or 50s at night. I'm assuming layers it will be. I did pick each of us some Christmas shirts from Old Navy last weekend ($5 each was a great price!). I've bought some breakfast items (poptarts, coffee) but I need to get more snacks. I'm going to Target today and think I may pick up some items to decorate our room while we're there - mini tree, lights, etc. I guess that's all I have for now.

Until next time.....

I would definitely have to have layers with temps like that. and for packing! It seems like the Teacup ride is longer than 1.5 minutes, but maybe that's because I'm always afraid it will make me sick!

Those are nice temperatures!

[debrabrown]

let me know how you plan to layer. I don't know why that is such a mystery to me considering where I live!!! The ride is that short??? Really?? (now I sound like SNL)

I really have no idea. During the day t-shirts and jeans will be fine. I might pack a long sleeve shirt for Dylan to wear under his t-shirt at night plus a jacket. And who knows maybe a blanket thrown in to cover him since he'll be in his stroller at times. Decisions, decisions!

I'm thinking we might bring some sweaters/sweatshirts to cover up with at night. Your temps sound awesome though!! The blanket sounds like a good idea. Just don't loose it!

That's what is so great about the lockers. We would put extra dry clothes and sweat shirts in the locker and get them out if we needed them. And, FYI, if you park hop, you only pay once for the locker and can get one at the next park. (y'all probably knew that already )

[OhToodles!]

So while I thought about it, I wanted to throw this out there:

If anyone want to recieve live updates, just PM me your cell# and I'll be glad to let you in on what we're doing. (Also feel free to post them here too.)

Also, if anyone would like some Fairy Godmother Mail I'd be happy to send you something. Just PM your address and what your favorites are at WDW. I'll post on here if I get too many than I think can handle.

Actually I don't think I knew about the locker and park hopping. Thanks Dawn! Right now I'm hoping we can go back to the resort at lunch/early afternoon every day so we can stock up for the evening.
I've also toyed with the idea of a new stroller with a bigger basket - hold more stuff that way!

[Colexis Mom]

Thanks for the fact! We definitely dressed in layers when we went that time of year!

[debrabrown]

I forgot all about the lockers! Are they fairly easy to snag and how much are they? Are they decent sized?

Last year when my DD was 1 we took our Evenflo full size stroller( I think you can see it in my signature pic) It was GREAT! Huge basket for blankets, shopping bags and also a stroller cover incase it rained. Also the best part of that stroller is that it can lay totally flat and the canopy will cover the WHOLE stroller when it's pulled all the way down. This was great when she would fall asleep, like let's say through Spectormagic. Which was really loud. She never woke. I thought about taking just an umbrella stoller this year but then I thought.............Why? Either way you are pushing a stoller, might as well get more use out of a full size while she is still little. And still needs a bit more "stuff" if ya know what I mean
