Day 5-Magic Kingdom!

This was the day we had all been waiting for!!  MAGIC KINGDOM!!!  It started out pretty early.  We got there around 745 because we wanted to be there in time for a front row seat at the rope drop ceremony that they do.  It was a long wait but totally worth it!  The little musical thing they do was so cool and the boys loved seeing it and helping to open up the park.

Then we got in and was a little overwhelmed haha.  The park is just huge and we didnt know which way to go.  There was so many things to do so we looked at the map and just started on the left and wanted to work our way around the park.  We started at the stitch ride and that was a fun first ride to go on.  We went on the Buzz lightyear ride after that and rode it twice because it was so fun.  You get to shoot a gun at targets and you try to get a high score.  I lost both times and Tom won both times, of course.  Tom was really serious about winning the game.  He is not competitive at all hahaha.  We have a great picture of him playing but I will post it when I get the copy to use.  We walked around and rode some rides and got a smoothie and muffins.  Then it was time for the first parade to start.  We had NO idea where it ran through so we found some shade and just sat down and waited.  We sat there for about 10 min until we realized that the parade would not be coming that way.  So of course when we went, all the shade spots were taken.  So we just sat at a table just right up until it came to us.  When we got there the parade chars were so nice to us.  They kept coming over and giving Jake and Tyler 5's.  It was the Move it and Shake it parade.  So its a street party and they are dancing in the street.  Well we went over to where they were dancing and Tyler and I started dancing and they loved it!  So they grabbed Tyler and started dancing with him.  Mr Incredible was over on our side and him and Tyler were really dancing good.  And then I walked over to Jake to try to get him out of his chair to get to dance.  He was not feeling great and so he didnt want to do anything.  He just wanted to sit there and watch.  I tried hard to get him up and then Mr Incredible came over and tried to get him up too and he still wouldnt.  So I told Jacob that I would give him $5 if he got up and danced, and that worked!  He got up and danced like crazy!  All the chars were dancing with them and having a great time.  They got to walk all around with the chars and they were the stars of the parade.  It made them feel so special and they just loved it.  I got some great pictures, and so did the disney people.  So we will be posting pictures soon.  Tyler and Donald were dancing a lot and that was Tylers favorite part of the whole thing. After that we just went to some other rides and met a few chars.  We went to have lunch at this italian place and it was so good!  I love all the food we have had here.  It has all been just great.  There was another parade starting soon and we wanted to watch it, but there was no shade spaces, so we decided to go on some more rides while that was going on.  We passed the place where the fairies were at and when we got in there, this lady said...why wait here?  Wouldnt you rather go through the back?  Of course we said YES because the wait was an hour long!!  So we got taken right to them and they cleared out the whole room so that Jacob and Tyler were the only ones there so that they could have their time with the fairies.  And it was amazing.  They were so great with the boys.  Even though they were boys and not too into fairies.  Tyler loved it, of course, and Jacob blushed most of the time haha.  I just loved it and again, got some great pictures.

After that we were kinda ready to go home.  Tom and I both got sooo sun burnt and just felt yucky.  It was hot and humid and just not great weather.  So we took the ferry back to the parking lot and left with all intentions of going back on Friday, if we could.

We get home and its about 645 or so and we get the kids ready for bed.  About 730 I go to give Jacob his meds and I can not find them anywhere!!  I took them to Magic Kingdom with us because we were there so early and I knew that I would have to give him his meds while we were there.  Plus I would need to give ti to him while we were there at night since we were going to stay for the Wishes fireworks show.  Well it was not in his pack where it should be.  I remember that he  fixed his machine while he was in the bathroom and I am pretty sure he left it in there, or something.  Well thank goodness for time difference, we made a quick call to the neuro office and talked to the nurse and she sent a prescription to CVS for us so that we could get another refill quickly.  $55 later...we had our meds again and all was good.  These seizure meds are so important that he does not miss a dose or else he can get really sick.  So everyone was scrambling to make sure he had his meds!  So because of that, we were not able to get to the wishes show.  I was pretty disappointed but thats alright.  All 4 of us were feeling sick with sore throats and so we were not feeling good anyways.  We all just wanted to come home and go to bed.  And thats just what we did!
