For my trip to Disney World . This is my 11th trip there, and Im so darn excited...Im one of those people who "feels the magic".
We are leaving here(driving)April 30th, stop some where overnight(depending on how long myhusband wants to drive), then the next day continue on down to the Ft Lauderdale area. That is where my parents live now. We plan on spending 2 nights with them. Then on that Monday (May 3rd)head up to the Disney area for 5 whole days,YIPPEE! Ive heard the drive is around 3 1/2 -4 hrs from Ft Lauderdale.
My parents have never seen me pregnant, even with my first 2 kids. We have never lived in the same state as them. Although they come out to see us at least once a year, its always been after my babies have been born. By the time we get there, I will be about 24 weeks pregnant, just at 6 months.
I planned this Disney Trip back in Mid January, while I was maybe 9 weeks pregnant. I remember thinking, one way or another I will need a vacation. I kept thinking if the pregnancy didnt last, then I would surely need something to look forward too. And then though, if my pregnancy progresses, then it will be our last vacation before baby arrives.
I think Im more excited about this trip then the kids.

Have a wonderful time. We went during this time last year. It was great. The weather was beautiful - mid 80's and the crowds weren't bad at all, especially during the week.

Thanks everybody for your nice thoughts. I have been to Disney while pregnant with my son and daughter... Although I wont be able to go on alot of the rides, I wont mind a bit. I just love the feeling of being at Disney...Since we have been there so many times, we wont have to rush around to see everything.

We are going to be at Disney the same week that you are! We are leaving on the 29th and going to my sil just over the border from Georgia. I think its Lee Florida. We have never been to her house before so we are excited. Then we will be at Disney May 4-7. I am very excited because this will be my dk's first trip. I have never been to animal Kingdom so that will be nice. I hope you and your family have a great time and take it easy!
