Disney World--Day 3

Our third day was spent at Epcot. This park is much slower paced, as there aren't many things Abbie can do. We enjoyed walking around the different countries. Abbie stopped at every fountain so she could get her hands and feet wet and throw coins. We have found that Abbie feels much better and isn't so cranky when she is cooled down. A really nice wind picked up in the afternoon/evening and felt so good...it was just what we all needed. It was funny to see locals (or people use to this awful heat) wearing sweaters and longs pants!!!

Disney World--Day 2

Our second day at Disney was spent at the Animal Kingdom. Abbie enjoyed seeing all the animals...we had a great view of the rhinos, lions, giraffes, monkeys, and zebras on the safari ride (plus lots of other animals). Abbie is still hesitant to ride on any rides...that Snow White ride really messed her up:( Hopefully it will get better throughout the week. In the evening, we had reservations for a dinner show at the Wilderness Lodge. It was called the Hoop-de-doo Musical Review. It was a lot of fun and Abbie loved being able to make as much noise as she wanted...screaming, clapping her hands and banging her fork on the plates!

Disney World---Day 1

Today was our first full day in Orlando...and it was a great day! We got in late Saturday night...about 11:00 pm. Needless to say, Abbie was exhausted! She did amazing on the plane though:) Today (Sunday), we decided to hit the Magic Kingdom. We got there about 12:00pm and stayed till 7:00! I can't begin to explain the joy I had watching Abbie's reaction to it all. She was sooo excited and was in awe of all the characters! We made one mistake...the first ride we went on was "Snow White". Abbie has books about Snow White and knows who she is, so we figured she would enjoy it. She didn't! It was way too scary for her and she cried most of the way through it. After exiting the ride, I realized it was really named "Snow White's Scary Adventures"! It took awhile, but she finally got over her fear of the rides and enjoyed some of the others. Her favorite was It's a Small World. She wanted to go on it over and over...we only did it twice. After a long day at the Magic Kingdom, Abbie enjoyed two hours in the pool at our condo! Mommy enjoyed it too:)

Abbie is counting!

This morning as I was getting Abbie dressed on her changing table, she clearly counted all of her fingers on one hand. "One, two, three, four, five", as she pointed to each one! I was sooo excited and filled with joy. We have been working on counting for so long, and it was like it just clicked...she can count objects! She then proceeded to count to six! She is getting so big:)

We leave for Disney World in a week! Can't wait to see Abigail's reaction! She is going to have the BEST time...I just know it. Hopefully I will get a camera this week so I will have lots of pictures:)
