A Magical Time!!

Junior surprised me and booked a weekend away at Disney World this past weekend for my Birthday! We had a magical time!! We stayed at Port Orleans a Disney Resort. It was beautiful with relaxing walking trails and canals. It had a boat that took us to downtown Disney. We saw lots of cute little squirrels and even the "Easter Bunny" =). It had a fun family pool that we all enjoyed too! We drove up Friday afternoon and got there around 3:00. Junior had reservations for us at the Rainforest Cafe a fun interactive rainforest themed restaurant at Downtown Disney. First we went to the World of Disney Store and bought some treats for Bella! It was so hard to resist all the cute Disney stuff for her! Dinner was at 6:00 but Bella was already tired by then. So dinner was a bit of a challenge. We had a monkey above our table that would turn on every 20 minutes. She did like seeing that!

On Saturday we were up early and ready to go to Magic Kingdom!! We got there at 9:00. It was so nice because the park wasn't to packed yet and it wasn't to hot either. We went down main street and through the castle to Fantasyland. We went on the carousel, its a small world, and saw Mickeys Philharmonic show. We took our time and enjoyed all the sights! I even got to go on all the rides! I was worried I wouldn't get to enjoy them because I am pregnant but I was allowed on all the rides we went on!! Then we headed down to Adventureland. Bella fell asleep in her stroller, so Jr and I had an Ice Cream and browsed the market area for a bit. When Bella woke up from her nap we headed to the Swiss Family Robinson Tree House and took a tour of that. Then we went on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride! After that we took the Jungle Cruise! We had a really funny tour guide JD. We headed back to mainstreet and saw the welcome parade and shopped around the Disney boutique. We got Bella some more fun gifts. It was starting to get hot and the park was getting busy so we decided to head back to our hotel at around 1:00. It was the perfect amount of time to spend at the park. We really enjoyed the experience and seeing Bella's face light up at all the fun!!

After her nap we enjoyed some family time around the pool and she even got to play at the playground! Then we headed back to Downtown Disney. We decided to eat dinner at Bongo's Gloria Estefans Cuban Restaurant. On the walk over Bella fell asleep. So Junior and I got to eat a romantic dinner together! It was Sooo nice and the food was great!! Right when we were leaving Bella woke up. Perfect timing! Thanks Bella for letting Mommy and Daddy have a nice dinner! We can't wait to go back in a few years with you and your brother Isaiah!!
