OK, I confess, I am a lurker
I have been around since before your wet and full report, I think and followed along with all the dug baby news.
Really enjoying your reports and I hope you have a great trip!
Yay, thank you for saying hi!
Nothing wrong with lurking...I've done a ton of that myself.
Awwww!!! I loved the flashback!! I was just looking at Caden's Christmas season pics from last year too. They've grown up SOO much in a year!!
Lol at the lollipop!! This summer at a wedding Andrew put Caden on his shoulders while going thru the buffet line. Next thing we know Caden is eating a roll up there. Hahahaha. He had leaned down, grabbed a roll off Andrews plate and just chowed down. Hahaha they're just so funny!!
I totally feel ya on all the crying and baby heartbreaking. Lol. Toddlers!
It's amazing what a difference one year can make! That's awesome about Caden eating the roll up there...I could see Dug Baby doing that too...she loves rolls!
So cute to see hte recap! you're so lucky she is great with santa AND fireworks!!
Yes, I think we've been pretty lucky with some things. Hope it keeps up at Disney!
As for stickers, we still have some Aria placed on her stroller tray from our first trip - stuck there for good. So no, not very removable. That being said, I don't think she got them at her haircut? They had some spinny toys and such that attempted to keep her distracted. Yes, they did give us a lock of hair with some mickey confetti along with a certificate.
I don't remember what else you asked LOL but heading back to my TR because apparently I stink at updating over the weekend! hehe
Thanks for the haircut/sticker info. I thought I'd seen some stuck to her stroller tray in your pictures! I'm glad to hear that they have other toys and distractions. Hope that will work well. It seems like every TR I've read with a first haircut features a kid just covered in stickers. Glad it doesn't have to be that way.
I'm still here. I lurk a lot but I am still reading. I have read your reports since before Dug Baby was here and I can't wait to read about her first trip.
Yay, you're still here! I actually wondered if you were.
Hope all is well with you.
Wow! I love the look of that mall Santa! He looks real and the background is so nice and charming
He hasn't been to meet a real santa yet. Unless you count DH dressing up for his mom's Christmas party last year
Anyway, he hasn't been to one, since our Santas around here look terrible and the background is awful. Hopefully one day!
At our local Halloween carnival, one of DS's prizes was a lollipop. We don't give him much sweet stuff either, but thought it would be cute to give him a few licks...he was not at all interested! I showed him what to do, but didn't want it at all. So strange, since I have the biggest sweet tooth around!
Hope you have a great Thanksgiving!
Yeah, this Santa was highly recommended by other moms I know. I guess he's been there for 17 years, so people have a lot of consistency in their pictures from year to year...hoping we can do that too. And he's pretty good with the kiddos, adjusting how he approaches different ages and such. I can't believe Calvin didn't want a lollipop. Also still can't believe that Dug Baby did!
Hope you had a great Thanksgiving too!
Happy Thanksgiving!
I hope you have a wonderful trip. We went in October, and it was wonderful! Our baby had her first haircut, and I don't remember stickers at all... They had all kinds of other stuff- fans, bubbles, glow toys, etc. It was really a great experience!
I'd been wondering how your trip went! Are you planning to do a TR? That is great to hear about the haircut toys!! I'm glad that it seems they've gotten away from stickers. Any other tips or advice you want to share from your trip with a little one, feel free!
Oh- another question. How does FastPass+ work with the Child Swap?! So you can schedule 2 rides at the same time, and "beat" the system? We didn't try that at all, as we had 4 adults. But that's a good idea...
Yes, as far as I understand the FP+ Child Swap works the same as the previous FP Child Swap. So, we just scheduled Dug for one ride and me for another and are planning to ask for Child Swap on each. Hopefully it works! Someone on the Theme Park boards said that several people have reported that it does.
Hello, I'm still here too, I don't post often but still loving your PTR and watching Dug Baby grow! Looking forward to the TR as well.
We finally decided on our next trip about a month ago....I can't wait. Funny how the closer you get to your own trip, the more time you spend on the Disboards!!!
Yay, you're still here too!
I'd wondered if you were. I'm sure your next trip will be great! I'd love to do a land and sea one day. Of course, I'd settle for even just a sea for the time being. Hope you have a wonderful time!
Just read the last few updates. Love your day to day plans and all the outfits you have picked out. There are so many adorable baby clothes!
It's crazy what one year can do....the difference is nuts. But she still looks super cute!
Thanks! It is totally amazing what a year can do. And it seems like it was just yesterday! I hope you're having a great time at WDW right now!
