Disney October 2015, Part 2 (Magic Kingdom)

Breakfast at Crystal Palace with Pooh and friends.  Frankly, I am not really a fan of Winnie the Pooh, but the kids loved this.  Noah ate more than I have ever seen him eat in a single meal (thank you, breakfast pizza), and seemed to enjoy himself.  It’s been so very long since we’ve been to Crystal Palace for a meal, and it did not disappoint.

Getting some love from Tigger.  Or waiting to get it.

With Piglet.

Hugs from Pooh

And Eyeore.

It rained a bit in the afternoon, but a rainy day at Disney is way better than a sunny day at work!

Before long, it was time to head back to the hotel to get ready for the next part of our Disney fun!

Disney October 2015, Part 1 (Magic Kingdom)

I’m not sure we’ve ever eaten at the Plaza Restaurant in Magic Kingdom before, but the food was really quite good.  We also met an interesting character while we were there, the fire chief of Main Street.  He taught Maya some new jokes (thank goodness) and was very entertaining!

Riding the Carrousel with Mommy.

Meeting Elsa.

Onto Enchanted Tales with Belle, with Maya making her 2nd appearance as Beast!  That little girl can roar pretty darn loudly!

“Beast” also gets the chance to dance with Belle.

We tried to get Noah involved as a plate, but he was having absolutely none of it.

Later that night, I brought Maya back to the Magic Kingdom, just the two of us, for a little more fun.  I think I wore her out.

Also, when you leave late, by the time you get to the Grand Floridian stop on the monorail (the last one before returning to Magic Kingdom), this is what the monorail car looks like.  Just imagine if we had stayed for Extra Magic Hours!

Caroline Cart

After asking about it almost weekly for months, Central Market finally got a Caroline Cart.  This makes it so much easier to shop with Noah, since I don’t have to try to wrangle a shopping cart and his wheelchair at the same time.  He’s too big and too stiff to put into the seat of a regular cart, and the other type they make to hold two kids have other issues (he slides out).  I am so delighted Central Market has this now!

Pre-Labor Day Pool Party

It started out all in fun.

Then, the kids took control.

Still fun, though.

LSU v. McNeese

I got Maya and Noah all dressed up for Game Day (in spirit, I mean; we weren’t going to the game).  The game was called due to lightning, but we had great weather and fun in Houston!
