Florida Day 1

Sunday we decided to head on to the Magic Kingdom because Eli had been asking for 2 days when he was going to see Mickey. We got up fairly early and headed in before the heat became too miserable and the lines too long. We had a great day.. it was hot but not unbearable like I was fearing. We actually were able to hit a lot of rides and attractions.. we took turns hitting up the fast passes and stayed one attraction ahead the entire time. All of the kiddos did amazingly well. Camden and Olivia both took stroller naps and Eli and Carter were able to hang in there like champs. We left around 4 pm right as the afternoon thunderstorms began and had to run out of the park in monsoon rain. I covered both little kids in the stroller and Josh, Isaac and I donned the $1.00 ponchos I had previously picked up at Dicks before we left. Great investment. We went back to the room, took naps, had dinner and then went back for the light show and fireworks. By the time we got back to our room at 11:30 that night we were all tired!

On our way in the park! I was even excited :)

Quick picture of the babies. Isaac refused to get his picture made. I put Olivia's hearing aids on her ear strap because I knew we would never find them if she pulled them out here.

First view of the castle and we were right in time for the show

Eli and Daddy

We all said that we were thankful it wasn't us in those costumes!

Big boy

Riding the Tea Cups... right before Eli had tried to pee in the bushes

Watching the Mickey Magical show. I was worried Olivia would be too small to enjoy Disney but she loved it as much as the boys. She just sat so still and watched the shows.

We bought the $17.00 water fan...

Hydrating in the stroller. I LOVE this stroller. It folds super easy and doesn't take up space. It weathered and kept the kids try during torrential rain, and Olivia took a great nap reclined all the way down.
