Nana, Aunt Megan, Daddy and Mommy took Landon to Disney for the first time! We tried to make it to the opening of the Magic Kingdom, but that didn't happen! Between all of us there was a lot going on, when we stopped at the Shell for Nana to get gas Landon spit up and needed a new outfit. That was his 2nd of the day. The first outfit he peed through and on to Aunt Megan. So, Landon in his 3rd outfit, Aunt Megan in her 2nd, and the rest of us managed to get to the park around 9:30 AM! Landon was squealing with excitement. It was really funny, he kept swinging his legs in the stroller and shrieking.

Big boy and his 1st visit button!
The button didn't last long on his shirt, he kept trying to eat it. |
When we got into the park we saw Snow White had a line to get pictures taken with her. While in the line Landon decided he needed to be changed. I took him over to the bathrooms and while we were finishing up Aunt Megan came running in to grab Landon. She said they were holding up the line and Snow White was waiting for him. So she took off when Landon while I grabbed all the stuff and met them out there. Right after Snow White we saw Mary Poppins was just standing around in the corner so we took some pictures with her too! After people saw us with Mary Poppins a line began to form for her.
We had fast passes to get our pictures with Rapunzel, Cinderella, and Bell in one room and Mickey and Minnie in another. Landon fell asleep while after meeting Mickey and Minnie and was in and out of sleep while meeting the princesses.
We had a fast pass for Dumbo so we headed over there. They are remodeling Magic Kingdom again and even though we were there about 6 months ago, things are already different! The dumbo ride has completely changed, there is now 2 of them. There is a huge tent for you to wait in until it your turn to ride too. Landon did really well the whole day! He slept on and off, he is such a good sleeper! He really doesn't get affected by noise. He loved all the characters too. He was a huge fan of their noses!
I'm not sure what he would say were his favorite rides, he visited a lot of attractions: Dumbo, Peter Pan, Haunted Mansion, People Mover, Mickey's PhilharMagic, Country Bear Jamboree, and slept through It's a Small World and most of Pirates of the Caribbean.
We had really nice, but super hot weather. It did rain for a little while, Daddy and Aunt Megan were on Space Mountain, so while it started to rain Nana and Mommy had ice cream under cover and Landon ate some fruit and rice cereal. It was a nice little break!
The night ended with us watching the Disney's Main Street Electrical Parade and then the Magic Kingdom fireworks. Landon LOVED the parade and then fell asleep during the fireworks. He sat on Aunt Megan's lap and watched all the light up floats and characters go by. Snow White came over to him and touched his nose. She told him he was the cutest thing! We had actually heard several times that day how cute Landon was and what a happy baby. He was quite the hit at the park!

We had such a fun day at Disney! Landon's first trip was a success! He can't wait to go back!
Landon went to his first professional soccer game last night. Betsy gave me free ticket vouchers so Meghan DeWitt, Stephen Theodore, Amanda Pettograsso, Brandon Hixson, Jessica, and Michael Werthman all went to the game against the Atlanta Silverbacks for free. My co-worker Stu Oleson was there with his brother, brother's girlfriend, and another friend. We sat with them in the "mob" section and learned a few Rowdie cheers. Landon was wide awake and loved the game! It was a really good game and ended in a 1 - 1 tie. I wanted a shoot out but apparently that only happens in the playoffs.
