Our Life: Epcot

Monday was a jam-packed day too! We headed to Epcot early with our crew. It took longer than we expected because I didn't realize that there was a monorail transfer we had to do. I thought we could just ride the monorail straight from our hotel to Epcot. This was not the case...Even with that little glitch in my plan, we still arrived when I wanted to. With kids tall enough to ride the rides but not old enough to handle waiting very well, timing is key to a Disney World adventure.

Uncle Kendall and Kayden. I am not sure Kendall was expecting to carry 40+ pounds around most of the trip like he did!

Killian and Mom with some shades. Killian, too, wanted to be carried most of the trip.

Keeley relaxing in the stroller. She didn't want to be carried but did frequently want to ride in the stroller.

Upon entering, we headed straight over to Soarin'. I loved it! I didn't get to ride last year and it was tons of fun to ride with the girls. We then went to the Little Nemo ride and to explore the aquarium a little bit.

Killian loved all the sharks.

Kendall and Angie had gotten us fast passes to Test Track so we headed out after a few minutes and attempted to get some pictures. ...

Killian was way too busy to pose. Epcot was a tough park for him because there wasn't really much for him to do. While the rest of our crew headed to Test Track, Killian and I made our way, slowly, over to the Baby Care center (these really are amazing in each park) to rest. We made sure to look at every duck and bird along the way.

This little girl shared her crayons with Killian while her mom fed her baby sister. They have coloring sheets and crayons at the baby care center but she had her own. Great planning, I thought! Will have to add to my packing list.

More nature. A lizard here. He has a love/hate relationship with lizards ...

Our crew met up with us at the baby care center and we headed over to check in early for our lunch. Killian was already getting fidgety and I wasn't sure lunch would go very well. I really love the Akershus meal with Belle.

Grandad had to learn about all the princesses. Raising two boys, I'm not sure he knew what he was getting into on this Disney trip!!

Killian checking out the menu with Angie. They were hesitant buddies. He watched her very intently most of the time.

Killian was not afraid of the princesses, he does like pretty girls, but he was very confused by their dresses. You'll notice him staring at them... He also quickly decided he didn't care about getting in the pictures..

He did care about some chocolate cake for dessert! Loved it.

We headed out after that in the hopes of a nap. Didn't happen with anyone. First day we had a no-nap day with Killian. After some resting, we headed down to the pool.
