Yesterday Millie had her first airplane ride and she did an incredible job. Even thought it was right around her nap time, she stayed awake and for the most part entertained the entire flight. She played games on her phone, watched the Lorax, colored and played with her babies. She of course had some snacks too! I think I was more nervous for take off and landing than she was, she didn't even flinch. :) She is such a brave girl!

Once we arrived at the resort, we got all settled in and took a short nap because we had dinner reservations in Downtown Disney. Millie was really well behaved and even ate some noodles at dinner. Then we strolled around Downtown Disney. We came across one of the big Disney stores and her eye lit up! I can't imagine what she is going to be like when we got to Magic Kingdom later this week! :) Pa was just as excited in the store too! We even found a DJ blasting a dance version of Let It Go, Millie of course had to jump around and get her groove on. For such a long and overly stimulating day, she rocked it!

Today: Friday--Sea World
I don't have many memories of my early trips to Disney World, but I do remember one souvenir that I still have to this day, my stuffed Shamu. I have been told several stories about the voyage back to Sea World my own grandparents made in order to get me the gift I just had to have, "my Shamu!" Well today Millie got to experience the magic of Sea World.
This morning, after a brief walk around the resort, we quickly decided that Sea World just couldn't be passed up! So off we went! Millie was amazed at all of the action that was going on around her. She loved the Shamu and Dolphin shows and watched them with attention I rarely see from her. She didn't take her eyes off the show! We checked out some rides and then decided to head back for a nap. After a marathon, 3 hour nap, we grabbed some dinner and headed back. The park looked amazing all dressed up and ready for Christmas. Thousands of lights and trees were all over the place and Millie was so excited! We checked out Elmo's Christmas show and the Shamu night show (which was equally as awesome as the day show). Oh yeah and we went in a tunnel with sharks swimming all around us! YIKES!!! We didn't get back to the resort and settled in until after 10 and I can just say, Millie was a rock star!
Today, I just loved seeing the park through her eyes. Everything was so new and amazing for her. I'm so glad that she is having such a great time, we are making a lot of memories that she is sure to remember, and of course I had to buy her a stuffed Shamu of her very own! :)
