I couldn't agree with you more!!I know this is not a popular opinion.... but I LOVE the new layout of World of Disney. The old layout was confusing and jumbled and disorganized. The new layout was far less whimsical, but easy to navigate and well laid out.
I am beyond grateful for the people in my life.
So my final grade just posted..... against all odds, I PULLED AN A!! I sure hope whomever finds that book in the seat back pocket can use it or sell it for money and doesn't just trash it. I thought for sure I'd be lucky to get a B, but I squeezed in right at 90%. Barely an A, but an A nonetheless
A: I like your bewbs
Me:
Cinderella: uuhhhhhh.... Thank you?!
Tell A, all us ladies want pretty bewbs.
Earl of Sandwich is one of my favorite places to get food. It is inexpensive as far as Disney goes, and everyone in my family eats there without complaint. Those cake pops are adorable! Too adorable to eat. Sorry you didn't get yours.Day Two - Disney Springs and Epcot
With an open morning, we decided to take the kids shopping at Disney Springs. And let's face it, I would have been disappointed to come home without a suitcase full of Basin. So thinking we were smart about things we checked the bus schedule and made sure we were on the first bus out. We didn't bring the stroller, because A) only one stroller between two kids causes a lot of whining, and 2) when we went to DS in December the bus stop was really close to World of Disney so it wasn't a big deal, right?....... right?
WRONG!! The SOG bus parked all the way down past Cirque du Soleil, which may have well been 8 miles away. Each step was accompanied by whining and complaining, and every block or so one of the tiny humans would crumple into a ball on the ground crying about wanting to be picked up and carried. I'm sure their legs did hurt because it was a lot of walking for their small bodies, but we certainly could not have carried them the whole way after having carried them from the TTC to SOG the afternoon prior. We welcomed the reprieve from the whining and crying every time they found something interesting, like this sparkly sidewalk filled with "jewels and stars" that we looked at for well over five minutes.

It took us an hour to get to World of Disney from the bus stop. An HOUR. Like... an entire hour of our lives was spent walking painfully slowly from shadow to shadow with overheated whiny children but they found their second wind as soon as they entered the store.

A ended up getting these ears, but I did not, LOL. I don't know how people wear ears all day as these were uncomfortable pretty quickly, imo.

She also picked out a toy, then paid for it herself. It was adorable

Afterwards, M took the tiny people with grabby hands to the Lego Store while I stocked up on Basin, and then we all headed over to Earl of Sandwich together. We got the girls a fruit cup and two kids meals (chicken nuggets and grilled cheese sandwich) and split them up. M got a summer salad with strawberries and almonds, and I got a chicken salad with cranberries.

We also split a Philly cheesesteak sandwich

It was all delicious. And not too terribly expensive. We always joke about my kid being a raccoon, and for years when she was little we called her a trash panda baby. When we went to mom group meetups she'd crawl from diaper bag to diaper bag and eat all the other kids snacks. We never had an issue getting her to eat food. So at Earl of Sandwich, she ate all her food, plus all of P's fruit. P, however, wasn't having it and things devolved into a standoff between her an M on just eating something before we go back into the heat. A, with all her free time since she already ate all her food, went insane.... I'm sure they were happy when we left the restaurant

We began the long trek back to the bus stop amid even more vehement complaining and whining about hurt legs and bleeding feet. We stopped into a sweets shop and each picked out a cake pop to eat at the bus stop, hoping it would motivate the kids to keep putting one foot in front of the other. By the time we got to the bus stop, however, the bus was pulling up, so we hopped right on and all breathed a sigh of relief when the AC hit us.
The kids and M enjoyed their cake pops, but even though we double checked with the guy that he had put all FOUR cake pops into the bag, mine was not in there

We settled into the room for a little bit for quiet time before heading out for an ill fated ADR.
Poop talk doesn't end after they turn 4 either.Poop was a big theme of the week. Whenever I said to the kids "say cheese" they'd reply "POOPY CHEESE!!!!". Which earned us some interesting looks from the princesses This age is poop obsessed... Like yesterday A wanted to see Lulu's poop when we were out on our walk and we had to spend the rest of the way home discussing the amount of water Lulu drank based on the appearance of her poop
A: We were dancing in a puddle!! It was a really wet ball! This is my wet ball gown!!
Snow White: Oh! Wet balls sound like lots of fun!!
12-year-old me: :hilarious.
Oh my goodness, A's interactions with characters is priceless! I bet they are used to weird things coming out of kids' mouths.On our way around the castle ran into Cinderella's stepsisters... They did some extra special casting with these two
A: I have Minnie on my dress!!
Sisters: what a drab little dress!! You need a dress with jewels and sparkles!! Did your mommy buy you this dress??
A: the mailman brought it for me!!
Sisters: listen honey, you gotta learn how to give your mom more compliments. Flattery will get you everything!! Is that your mom?
A: yes that's my mommy!!
Sisters: okay look at your mom and say Mommy are SO pretty!!
*Mumbles something similar*
Sisters: okay now hold out your hands and say give me money!!
A: View attachment 317607
Sisters: oh honey... You're gonna need a LOT of work.....
A: running over me while casting stepsisters a very skeptical look "Mommy, she signed my book but she spelled my name wrong!!!"
We're clearly still getting the hang of the autograph books, lol.
We finally made it to the backside of the castle for our date with Cinderella and Elena!! I think A was over excited for most of the princess meet and greets because i got a lot of very strange poses and faces

You know, they say this is a magical age to take kids to Disney, but it's also a very embarrassing age....
A: I like your dress!!
Cinderella: oh thank you!! My fairy godmother made it for me with some magical words!! Do you know the magical words she used??
A: I like your bewbs
Me:
Cinderella: uuhhhhhh.... Thank you?!
A: when I'm all grown up my fairy godmother is going to give me pretty bewbs too!! And glass slippers!!
Bless her heart, Cinderella only looked mildly uncomfortable...
