About Me

My photo
I married my husband, Rob, in 2003. In 2007, we decided we were ready to start a family but God had other plans! After many years I finally became a mommy in 2012 when we adopted our beautiful girls Hazel Kate and Kellie Caroline. The adoption was final on August 1, 2013 and it's been nothing but love, fun and chaos since! This is my place to document what is going on in our lives as I MUDDLE my way through Mommyhood!

Day 3 Animal Kingdom and Downtown Disney

We started Day 3 at Animal Kingdom and headed straight to Kilimanjaro Safari.  If you are headed to Animal Kingdom, you should head to the safari first thing.  They feed the animals in the morning so all of the animals are out and about.  We got to the safari around 9:00 and walked straight on, with nobody waiting!


It was a little rainy but all of the animals were out!

This giraffe found a puddle to drink out of....in front our jeep.  Since the guides can't honk or do anything to make the animals move, she had to call in backup.  Another worker drove over and put some brush up in a tree and coaxed the giraffe from in front of our jeep.  It took about 10 minutes to get the giraffe to move.  It was really neat!




Termite mounds!!  GROSS!


 This was the closest we have ever been to the animals on the Kilimanjaro Safari.




The girls got their faces painted after the safari.  They were IN LOVE with themselves! :)


We had some time to kill before our breakfast reservation so Daddy did a little dancing with his girls!


 We had a character breakfast at Tusker House with Mickey, Donald, Daisy, and Goofy





A little silliness! 



The girls rode EXPEDITION EVEREST and LOVED IT!  Hazel and Rob got to ride Primevil Whirl (Kellie was too short).  We also saw the Finding Nemo show.  Unfortunately, the Lion King show was closed while we were there so I can't wait for the girls to see that during our next trip.

We were all so tired by the afternoon.  As we were walking through the park, somehow the girls ended up like this...wound up in their backpacks!  I.HAVE.NO.IDEA!  After a few meltdowns, we decided to cut our afternoon a little short and head back to our room for a little rest!


 After an afternoon nap, we rode the boat from our resort to Downtown Disney for the evening.  We ate at Ragland Road and it was YUMMY!

These were our scallop appetizers!  We all loved our food AND the Irish dancing!










We walked around and did a little shopping.
We stopped after dinner to sit and call my parents to check in with them.  While I was on the phone, the girls took Rob's hat off of his head and placed it on the sidewalk upside down.  They started dancing and putting on a show.  When Rob asked them what they were doing, they said they were trying to get money!  I have NO idea where that came from or where in the world they have seen that but it was SOOOO funny!
