AW our birthday trip!

SJandVA

I'm going to AW our trip to Disney if anyone is interested. We were there last week and it was HOT. We knew it would be but they ended up having their hottest days of the year while we were there. We got to spend her actual birthday in the Magic Kingdom. We had breakfast with Winnie the Pooh and gang.

Oh its all so cute!! We want to take Jax to Disney sometime, but will wait now for #2 to be old enough to enjoy it too. A birthday with the best characters, she's a lucky little girl!

Did you find that there was a fair number of rides she could go on?

SJandVA

We were planning on waiting until she was older. But we love Disney and decided to take a trip down. She absolutely loved it.
Tons to ride. Infants and up can go on most things. The mountains have height restrictions and the other 2 coasters do too. There might be a couple others.

That's great to know! Such a great idea.

So many tips. Haha! Depends on what you want to do and see. Research and learn the fast pass+ system before you go. It's a great system if you know what you're doing. I saw a lot of people that didn't understand it, therefore didn't benefit from it. Let me know if you have a specific question. I'd be glad to help. It sounds like you'll be there for the mickeys not so scary Halloween party. That is a total blast, if you can swing it financially it's worth the extra price.

So fun! We're going in March. The kids are a little young, but DH has a conference in Orlando and we decided to go meet my East coast family there. We just booked a room at the Art of Animation resort.

Thanks for the tips! I've done lots of reading on Fastpass and I already chose our Fastpass. Let me know what you think. Day 1: Peter Pan, Dumbo, Winnie the Pooh, Day 2: Character Meet and Greet in Epcot, Maelstrom, and Soarin, Day 3: Toy Story Mania, Tower of Terror (need to change, just found out I am pregnant!), Disney jr live, Day 4: Jungle Cruise, Main Street Electrial Parade, Buzz Lightyear, Day 5: Fantasy Parade, Pirates of the Caribean, Seven Dwarfs Mine train (need to cancel), Day 6: Under the Sea, Tomorrowland Speedway, and Pirates. We aren't doing coasters because of DS. Also, do you think Kilimanjaro Safaris is ok when pregnant? Edited to add: I think we are going to skip the Halloween party because of how late it is. We plan on going back in a few years and will do it then.

Cute pics! Happy birthday to the little lady!

@twinkletoes3126‌ those look good to me. Just a couple things. Soarin has a height limit, so if you can't ride that I recommend getting one for spaceship earth. Seems like there is lines for that in the morning. Just remember the earlier your fast passes are the more you can get. One day at Magic Kingdom we ended up getting 7 total. Winnie the Pooh and Peter Pan are our favorites. We aren't huge fans of Animal Kingdom so I'm not sure about the safari and pregnancy.

@SJandVA‌ We were hoping to do the rider swap for Soarin, I'll check out Spaceship Earth too though! Thanks again for all your suggestions,

Sounds like you've got it:) Rider swap worked so great for us. DH and I each got to ride with our 6yo and she got to ride Splash, mine train, and big thunder twice.
