Mickey's House...

Kylie and Aiden are so excited to be in FL and going to Mickey's house. It is all they talked about for the last two weeks. Every morning Kylie would wake up and ask "Are we going to Mickey's house today?" This morning we could finally say "yes". Bella and Jaxson were so good. They were great on both car rides and every long day in each park. They never held anyone back from having a great time. The weather on the other hand gave us some problems. Grammy and Grampy were so awesome to keep Bella and Jaxson during some of the rainy weather. On Thursday we had a movie/game/wine day at the resort. Thursday not only rained, well poured all day but also had tornado warnings. Kylie and Aiden were inseparable and spent the whole trip together. They were so good most of the time. Last time we went to Disney I took over 1500 pictures. This trip I took 379. I guess this time I had my hands literally full since our family has doubled in size. Disney was also our first trips out of the house for any length of time, except three Dr's appts and one trip to target. I was a little apprehensive the first day out but by the end of trip we had it down. Here are some highlights from our First Family (of six) Vacation... We arrived on Sunday afternoon and it was a perfect time for a swim in the resort pool.


Here we met up with Aunt Michelle and Uncle Kevin ...
The next day rained but Kylie and Aiden needed to get out and we needed them to get out! Grammy watched Bella and Jaxson and we headed to down town Disney to try and get a glimpse of Mickey. Yes they were only statues but none of us cared.
We stopped to build our own Mr Potato Head with special Disney pieces. We are still not sure if Uncle Cory and I had more fun making them or Kylie and Aiden.

This was Kylie's many naps in the stroller. We were having so much fun that sometimes you just need a nap even if it's pouring rain and your sitting up in a stroller.
Mommy needed this after a long day in the rain! Yummy Chocolate Martini!
Finally the rain stopped and we made it to Hollywood Studios. Again off to try to find Mickey.
We saw Tiger and Eeyore, Pluto and Goofy but no Mickey except for statue's.
We waited on line for the Toy Story Ride. This was the only long line (90 mins). Every thing else we were able to get fast passes and sail right to the front of the line. Kylie and Aiden did awesome waiting on line and having patients. It did help that there was a lot to look at.




Kylie was a little tired waiting on line for the next show. We finally saw Mickey in the Disney Junior show. We also saw Kylie's favorite "Jake and the Neverland Pirates" and if I had to make and early prediction I think someone is going to be a pirate for Halloween this year "argh mates".





Yes our stroller looked like it was carrying luggage but you need a lot of crap for two babies and a toddler.
After we waited on a short line for Handy Manny, Kylie informed me that she really wished it was Jake.
For our next day out we were prepared for rain, just in case. It held out until about 5pm. Then what a sight all of us running to the car. We also had an extra guest with us. Sissy flew in last night to join our Family Vacation.

The last time we were here Oct. 2002 there were only three of us. It was only the beginning because that was when we got engaged..... and now we are six!
As usual the castle was magical...


Being silly in line for it's a small world ...
Both Kylie and Aiden loved the Flying Dumbo ride.

Jaxson and Bella just chilled in their fancy stroller.



Again Kylie felt she needed a nap.
Kylie picked out a new pirate hat and silly daddy tried it on. Notice the rain poncho. Grampy waited with the babies while Jimmy, Kylie and I went on the Pirate's of the Carabean ride. Good thing we left him in a covered area. While we were on the ride it downpoured!
Thursday we just hung out at the resort due to the bad weather.
Friday we were off to Animal Kingdom and we had a fantastic time. Here is the Tree of Life with tons of Animals carved into it.
We saw a ton of Animals. This is takeing a look at a "Croc" as Kylie put it. She also made the tic tock sound (for captain hooks croc).




At the petting zoo brushing the goats...

Jiminy Cricket
Rafiki's got your nose.

Do you Dare? Daddy does!
Nap time!
Finally ... Hi there Mickey! Kylie gave Mickey hugs and hi fives.

When we got to Minnie Kylie turned to Sissy and said "you stay here, I am a big girl now, I can do it by my self." And off she went.

Look Nana the "REAL" Minnie...
and Goofy...


And Donald...

Kylie was a little up set the Daisy left for the day but we got a stuffed daisy and a picture of Daisy.

We took the safari ride and saw every animal. It was a cool ride through the jungle.




For the last day while Destine' and Daddy went to Adventure Island we hung out at the pool.
and played "got cha nose" game.
Uncle Kevin's gotcha' nose.
Silly Grammy
Nap time
Rain Forest Cafe' for our last dinner in FL.
Hanging out in our cute Disney outfits.

We had so much fun in Disney that every morning since we've been home Kylie wakes up and askes "can we go to see Mickey today, please?" "Can we go back to Mickey's today?"
