Mom/Daughter Disney Fanatics : 2016 Year of Trips, Events, and Very Exciting News!

After our character breakfast, we went to Typhoon Lagoon for the first time. We loved it there! Spent most of the time in the lazy river, lounging around, etc. since we couldn't ride the water slides. But we did ride the family raft ride and it was pretty fun.







We were excited to see Lilo there!









Coming up: Dinner at Whispering Canyon and our last partial day before heading home.

Yummy breakfast and the characters are so cute in their beach outfits!!! You got some fabulous pictures this trip!

Love Typhoon Lagoon. I prefer that theming over BB, even though I like that park too. The lazy river is so nice.

Cape May is one of my favorites!

I liked the theming of Typhoon Lagoon the best, but there's more slides (and family raft) that I like better at BB. And I like the more laid back wave pool at BB, over Typhoon Lagoon's wave pool.
 
We had a late dinner reservation for Whispering Canyon and it was our first time visiting Wilderness Lodge:

The food was really good, but I was kinda disappointed in the overall experience. We looked up info about this restaurant and found some ways to have fun there. But our waitress didn't even try to make it fun. It was just like going to any other restaurant, nothing special about the experience. There were a few tables having fun, but our section was totally boring! LOL


So we went back to our resort and packed some, and got ready for bed. The next morning after we gathered all of our luggage, etc. WE headed to Disney Springs since we had a later flight.

Of course, we had to have lunch here one more time! Love it!

So we just hung out and shopped around for some goodies too.

And we could have actually stayed even longer, because after we left Disney Springs, I got a text saying our flight was delayed by 3 hours!

But we were already on the road by now.

So our flight back home was uneventful, but sad to be leaving.

We had a great Disney trip, and even though we were sad to be leaving, we were looking forward to another weekend getaway soon, that would include getting to see Mickey again!
And doing some shopping for baby!!
 
Great updates!

We've only eaten at Whispering Canyon once and didn't experience the fun either. Very similar to 50s Prime Time, some servers have it, some don't. But I'm not sure why they would work there if they didn't want to join in the fun... Really yummy food though.

Bummer about your flight being delayed 3 hours. That always seems to happen when people have already left, and then have to sit at the airport longer.

Too cool that Mickey and Minnie were at the grand re-opening. Awesome to make a fun weekend of it! Adorable pictures with Halloween Mickey!!!

That looks like a successful shopping trip to me! :teeth:
 


Just started reading your trip report!
Congratulations on the new baby and your new title as GrandMa!!!

I agree with you about the Whispering Canyon.

That was a fun weekend trip!

Thank you so much! And thanks for joining in!
 
So it's been a really crazy, exciting journey with my daughter throughout her pregnancy.
Even though she had him 10 days early, she had a really good delivery and he came out as healthy as could be!
I was in the labor & delivery room with her, and THAT was such an experience, and of course I cried like a baby!!!


I was hoping to keep up with this TR a little better, so I could keep my Dis-er friends updated!

I can not believe he is almost 8 weeks old!! Time really does fly by.


Introducing my sweet baby Grandson!







Even though you can see the exhaustion in my daughter's face, this is one of my favorite pics! Makes me so proud, how hard she worked, and how well she done!!







I will be posting some more pics of his first photo shoot (you know I had to include a few Disney shots!), his Disney themed "growth" pics (1 week, 2 week, 1 month, etc),
First Easter pic (you know he got a Disney gift, LOL). And just a few fun pics that you might enjoy, especially my Dis-friends that have followed us, really through the past years!

Thank you all for continuing to follow my TR, and having patience as I got the Disney portion done (It's really been busy with a new baby in the house! LOL)
 
I'm back with a little update. Life has been super busy lately with my sweet grandson. He's growing way too fast! He's now 10 months old and he started walking at 9 months old! We're already planning his 1st birthday party! Which of course is going to be Mickey Mouse themed! I have a few of his "months" pics, but I'm having a hard time finding some of them in my computer. But I wanted to share the ones I found easily and update my Dis friends! We were planning to go to Disney for his 1st birthday, but it just didn't work out. So we're hopefully looking to plan a September trip this year!

I'm finally getting around to do a quick update! I'm trying to get back into my Disboards and find info and TR's with info on taking a toddler to WDW..........
We're taking another trip to WDW in September!! A Mom/Daughter/Grandson trip!

We're planning our first time ever in the Fall, and we'll be going to the Halloween Party. Also in the plans are, a day at MK, AK, Blizzard Beach, Volcano Bay, and a few character meals, and some rest time. This will definitely be a different trip, as it's always just been me and my daughter taking our trips together. So we'll be taking along an 18 month old!!


We celebrated his 1st birthday back in March. Here's a few pics from his Disney themed photo shoot!!
