Hi there. We’re here from the 14th through the 27th (we left the 12 to drive from Maryland). I was crazy though and we brought 5 preteens and teens, my 3 kids and two friends. It looks like we will overlap parks some days. I really look forward to your report. Have a great trip.

We are starting our drive down on Thursday for our trip from the 14th through the 27th. I am thrilled with this change, it is so nice since both my husband and I were wincing at the parking prices. Last time we stayed on property parking was free so it’s an awesome bonus.

I’ve got reservations either for close times, or I was able to make one for 7 for everything now but Skippers Canteen. I’ll keep an eye out for either a reservation for 2 at the same time, oh no my husband and I will have to eat at one table while the 5 teens and preteens eat at a different...

I already tried looking for 8. I’ll keep looking since we just added the 7th 2 hours ago. I was able to go to 7 with 3 reservation so hopefully more will pop.

So we are going to Disney from mid January to the end of January. We just added a 7th member to our party. I have gone through and adjusted as many of our dining reservations as I can. However, there are a couple of restaurants that do not have availability for 7 at the time or days we...

I just got DAS for my 13 year old on Saturday. You need too do it 30 days or less out from your first park day. Once we got the DAS I dealt with the advanced reservations. They were willing to do my first 7 park days. I have to do my 8th after we use our first day of DAS advanced reservations...

1 Day! Just one day left. I woke up early this morning and checked in for our flight. We got A boarding. I'm happy since minion 3 is now to old for us to use family boarding. I finished up my planning book to bring. Printed out the info, laminated it, and put fun stickers on the pages. We...

2 days till Disney! Wow that went fast. I made autograph books yesterday. I haven't taken pictures yet though. They are done, which is good. We are going to do some errands today so I can get the last minute things I need for the trip. I plan to pack today so we are ready. I have made up...

10 days till Disney! Only 10 days to go! I still have a couple things I want to grab before we go, some easter candy for the kids, a few ponchos just in case, and a couple of other small things. I need to put together the autograph books. I am thinking I'll do that this weekend. I have...

I have done it with both a 5 month old and a 7 month old (different kids). The biggest thing to remember is breaks. You will need breaks to feed the baby and care for baby. Honestly we did a bunch of rides with both babies, they would fall asleep in the carrier and we'd just ride with them...

12 days! I haven't updated in over a week, oops. We celebrated minion 2's birthday. We went to the National Zoo a couple of days before, had a party to see A Wrinkle in Time the day before, and hung out with her best friend the day of. She had a great day. We're currently prepping for a...

It is $15 per ticket for early bird check in. It adds up, but honestly for that $60 in this case I will get peace of mind that we are checked in. I just attempted to sign up for it now and the website was throwing an error so I'll try again later today or tomorrow. Thanks for the comments...

Thank you very much :).

23 days! On Wednesday I got our last set of Fastpasses for our last day. Animal Kingdom. Shocking no one the cool Avatar ride had no FP left. We have FP for Everest before our lunch at Tusker House. The Safari after our lunch and then Kali after the Safari. The first FP are not till 10:15...

The plan is on Tuesday I am hoping to make it to closing with the older 2 at least. I am pretty sure my niece and nephew won't make it and not sure about minion 3. I am not sure about Thursday since we have a park day Friday, but I'll have to see how we are doing that evening. On the plus...

26 days! After waking ridiculously early, 7am is super early for me, I got online to get our FP+ for our 3rd Disney day. When I logged on there were no FP+ available at all for Magic Kingdom on April 5th. Waiting a couple of minutes until 7:10 or so made it so there were now FP+ options. Not...

We have also never done a dessert party. With kids you never know how they will react and honestly it just doesn't seem worth the cost. That being said I also agree with an earlier poster that I would probably drop Hollywood Studios for a second Magic Kingdom day. There is a ton to see in...

28 days! So it was time for day 2 FP+. I set my alarm this morning for 6:45, 6:55 and 7:05 because I really didn't want to be up that early, but it is our first Magic Kingdom day, and the busier one too. I got up on time, go me and was at the computer at 7. I got the fast passes I wanted...

Thanks. To be fair I had about 54 days to plan, but yes the character meals were tough. Both CRT and trying to find one for 9 people! I love adding the pictures of our older trips. I figure it sort of makes up for completely failing to complete my last trip report.

My will be 9 year old requested it this trip. We have never done it, but I got an appointment on our arrival day at Disney Springs for her and her younger cousin. We are bringing our own costume. I figure she'll have fun, she'll be able to say she's done it and it is likely the last time...
