We have been soooo looking forward to our trip to Mickey's House!! Maddie was so excited to go...she had been telling anyone and everyone where she was about to go!
Day One
Are we there...is this Mickey's House?? No Maddie, this is The Parking Spot. But she sure loved riding that Yellow Spotted Bus!
Our next vacation may just be a trip to the airport - she seemed pretty satisfied with it!
Our hotel was beautiful and everything was so nice!!
From our room we could see Cinderella's Castle!
We had dinner at Chef Mickey's on our first night! Maddie had an autograph book that all the characters signed. She loved meeting the characters and getting her pictures taken with them. Cooper wasn't quite sure what to think of everything - but Big Sis loved every minute of it!
Day Two
The second day started with this cute little man in my big bed!
Animal Kingdom here we come...
We had an early breakfast at the Tusker House.
And then we went on Kilimanjaro Safari Ride. Maddie was excited to see all the animals...
Cooper took his morning nap!
We saw tons of animals!
Hippos, elephant, rhinos, and giraffes!!
We ended the night with a Luau. The kids were definitely tired - but Maddie was still able to get on stage and dance with the other kids! I swear - this child doesn't stop!
Day Three
This was the day that mommy was most excited and nervous for!! Maddie isn't real into princesses so I wasn't sure how she would do...but she loved it!! And grandma and mommy loved watching her turn into a princess!!
We had a bit of dress drama - but what princess doesn't?? I had ordered her a dress and it was being shipped to our hotel - the night before our princess day it still hadn't arrived so we let Maddie go pick a new dress (which was a lot of fun). She was originally going to be Snow White but when we went to the store she decided to be Cinderella.
We went to the Bibbity Bobbity Boutique (in the Castle) for our Princess Makeover. When we walked in all the 'fairy god mother in-trainings' were so excited that "Princess Madelyn is here, Princess Madelyn is here"!!
This is Maddie before...she got to choose her hair style...
becoming a princess...
a little hairsprary,
some eyeshadow,
a touch of lip gloss,
and a sprinkle of fairy dust...
and now...Princess Madelyn
And check out Prince Charming Cooper...he definitely got a lot of attention from all the princesses - he is such a little stud!!
After our makeover we walked next door to Cinderella's Royal Table and we were ready to have breakfast with the princesses in the Castle.

After breakfast we changed our clothes and we were ready to have fun at the Magic Kingdom. It was amazing to watch her - she absolutely loved every minute of it!!
Pure Excitement!
Maddie & Mommy & Daddy
Cinderella's Castle
We had dinner at The Crystal Palace with Eeyore, Pooh, Tigger, & Piglet
When we got back to our room that day the dress I had ordered first finally had arrived...
I had to get one picture of her in it...Beautiful!!!
Day Four
HollyWood Studios here we come!
We got to meet more characters...
Disney radio was performing and Maddie got to go up on stage and dance with them!! Afterwards one of the dancers came over and gave her some streamers and a high five. She thought that was pretty cool!
On our way to meet Buzz & Woody
Buzz & Woody...this might of been her favorite!
That night we went to a fancy dinner at Narcooses at the Grand Floridian. Grandma & Papa surprised Maddie with a special Mickey cake to celebrate her first trip to Disney.
Ummmm...the cake was to D.I.E for!!!!!!! A-MA-ZING!
After dinner we headed over for our last night at the Magic Kingdom.
We got to meet Princess Tiana & Tinkerbell!
This was an amazing trip!
I came home with 515 pictures on my camera and still feel like there was so much more that we did that we didn't get photos of!!
It was so cool to watch Maddie experience this - I can't wait until we can go again!!
