This is Jack and Chris waiting in line to meet Mickey. (more on this to follow)
This is Cole yesterday after his first taste of rice cereal. He was quite delighted with it.

Orlando!:
Jack feeding dolphins at Sea World: He was slightly more interested in the fish than the dolphins, but I think he liked it pretty well.
Cole even got to go on some rides. This is the Dr. Suess merry-go-round at universal.
Back at Sea World....the walrus was huge!
And back to Universal...Jack was thrilled to meet the Grinch; Cole didn't much care.
Cole got to meet Things One and Two...again, I don't think he much cared.
Jack loved meeting the Cat in the Hat. The Cat's ride was probably his favorite. He went on it at least 5 times and kept asking to go see "the fish in the toilet". Oh my, the potty humor is starting already!
He also loved One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish.

At Disney's animal kingdom we wasted most of the morning at Rafiki's Planet Watch (if you go, don't bother). But the afternoon redeemed the park... the Everest roller coaster was awesome. Jack loved the drums in "Africa", the Nemo show (not what I expected...an actual Nemo broadway style musical), and joining the conga line at the park exit.

Back at Universal (we really were only there one day), waiting in the baby swap room with PoPo.
Cole was easily the coolest baby in Orlando. I can't believe how well he kept these glasses on!
At the end of the day at Magic Kingdom...both kids asleep in the stroller at the same time?!? It really is a magical place!
Waiting in line to see Mickey...this is the most ridiculous change to Disney I've noticed since I was a kid. We stood in line for about an hour...for 30 seconds to take a picture with Mickey and Minnie. None of ours turned out (I hope my mom or Chris has a good one). It would have been just as long or longer to meet any of the other characters. What happened to the days when they just wandered around and interacted with the kids? If your kid insisted on getting one of those little autograph books filled, this is all you would have time to do!
And now we're to Easter. The day before, the weather was beautiful and a family in our ward hosted an Easter egg hunt. It was a great time, I'm glad they make it a yearly tradition!
And now we're back to Sea World to look at the sharks!
And now we're back to Sea World to look at the sharks!And back to the Easter Egg hunt, where the best eggs were apparently in the window wells.
The crazy Easter bunny hung a basket on the curtain rod!

Cole is now rolling over...this was the first time (just funny that this was the picture...love the little #1 finger, I couldn't have posed it better)

WE'LL GO WITH YOU ANYTIME, BUT I THINK IT WILL BE MORE THAN A FEW YEARS BEFORE THE KIDS CAN RIDE THE ROLLER COASTERS. I CAN'T WAIT TO RIDE WITH THE GRANDSONS. I WAS PRETTY OLD WHEN I FINALLY REACHED THAT MAGIC HEIGHT TO RIDE, HOPEFULLY YOUR BOYS WILL GROW FASTER.
LOVE THE PICTURES.
I love it! My fav is the one of Matt and Jack in front of the eggs, their right eyebrows both raised a little. SO cute! Cole is getting his own adorable little look. Give them a squeeze from the other Taylors:)
I read that the most dangerous job is being a character at Disney. Apparently they get lots of heat stroke and sprain their ankles frequently. Maybe Disney is trying to keep the injuries to a minimum by making you stand in long lines. I can't wait until we can come with you!
We can't wait till June. They both have grown so much. How cute they are. I love the cool glasses on Cole. Jack has the most expressive face.Glad you had a good time.
Hugs and Aloha,
Grandma and Grandpa Taylor
What a fun trip! I love the pictures and those cute little guys!
My kids loved the Nemo musical - we had to buy the soundtrack on itunes. You think waiting in line for Mickey was bad, try waiting in line for the princesses - so much worse. Such a fun trip. Jack is at a great age to start the whole Disney thing. I can't believe that Cole is old enough to start eating food. Loved all the pics.
Looks like you guys had a ton of fun on your trip! Can't wait to here more about how it all went! Glad you guys are back :)
the one of matt and jack on that ride is priceless. to catch a look like that on his face on camera...
My fav is of Jack's face on one fish two fish ride. I LOVE the excitement little kids get on simple rides. :)
How fun. It seems like you get to see your family lots which is great. I love Disney, no matter how much work it is, it always seems to be worth it just to see your kids faces.
We'll see you guys before we know it!!!
