Disney Day 2

This was our most happening day at Disney. We. Did. Not. Stop. And just to brag a little bit... I did most of it without the husband! (picture me taking a bow). We started the day off with a 7 am reservation at Chef Mickey's. Felix was able to join us for breakfast, so it was nice to have the extra set of hands. This was Carter's 1st character experience and she did great. She was not upset nor did she get overly excited at this point. She just kind of stared and pointed. Big sister decided as we sat down at the table that she doesn't like characters that are dressed as dogs. This was a new one she threw at me, so we had to stay clear of Goofy and Pluto. I love everything about this breakfast, and it's a must-do for every trip to Disney!









After breakfast, the girls and I took the monorail to the Magic Kingdom. We got there just in time for rope drop. We watched the little show in front of the gates, and then headed straight to ride Winnie the Pooh. We rode Winnie, Ariel's Grotto, and It's a Small World. Carter loved every second of it and was on her best behavior. Blair's favorite thing to do is fill up her autograph book, so we made stops along the way for the Fairy Godmother, Peter Pan, and Wendy. Before I knew it, the morning had passed and it was time for lunch! We caught a show in front of the castle, made the street party, and then headed back to the resort for an afternoon rest.










During Carter's nap time, I took Blair to the main pool at the Art of Animation. They have 3 pools at this resort, and all of them are very cute. The Big Blue Pool has a snack bar, a spash pad area, and a lot of fun games. Blair and I treated ourself to a refreshment before swimming. We just can't get enough Mickey treats when we go to Disney. Blair's swimming has improved so much since our trip in January. This time she was much more into the games and races that were put on by the cast members. It was nice to sit back and relax and watch her have a great time!




We went back to the Magic Kingdom that night for our dinner reservation at Cinderella's Royal Table. I snagged this reservation 24 hours before our departure from Atlanta. Don't ask me how, but we got a 5:45 reservation , and had a wonderful table. I told Felix that the "Disney Magic" was working in our favor ;) Carter was a riot during this meal. Every time they would introduce a princess she would raise her hands in the air and start clapping. She was having a blast! We had a wonderful dinner and enjoyed a few more hours at the MK before heading back to the resort. We had another early breakfast to make, so we had to get our beauty sleep!
