We arrived at Animal Kingdom around 9:30 and again didn't hit any traffic and were able to park there. It was definitely more crowded though. We waited about 45 minutes for the Safari Ride but it was totally worth it! We saw tons of animals and the giraffes super close!
Later after naps the kids went swimming and Christopher got in the pool for the first time ever!!! He loved it!!!

Disney World Fun
In an effort to keep up with the blog here are some pics from our time at Disney so far. I need to update with other fun events too!
On Sunday we left the house at 6:45am and didn't hit any traffic and were actually able to park super close at the the transportation/monorail ticket center. We waited at the gates from 7:15-7:40 until they opened up the monorail! We were expecting it to take 1.5hrs so we were pleasantly surprised when we didn't hit traffic or crazy crowds! We were in the Magic Kingdom by 8:00 and were to able to hit Peter Pan, it's a small world, barnyard dash, Dumbo and a few other rides before the crowds got packed and lines were 30minutes +. We ate lunch and let the kids sleep in the stroller and moved over to Epcot. We explored Epcot and then ate dinner at an Italian place in Italy and watched the 6:45 candlelight processional! The show was great and then we hurried home to get the kids to bed! Tuesday we let the kids sleep in and then went to Animal Kingdom which was neat. We took the kids home for naps and then swam in the pool. Mikael and I stayed back to watch the kids for the evening so everyone else could go back to the parks and ride the adult rides. We had a great time with the kids and they were awesome! We celebrated Masons 1/2 birthday with cupcakes and played/read and then they all went to bed!

Crawling?!?! 5.5 months
As of this week Christopher is trying to army crawl!! He brings his knees up under him and then schooches forward! We are in trouble! He is very good at turning on his tummy too! And he finally likes sleeping on his side/tummy! And rolls all over the place!

22 weeks (5 months) we have a rolly Pollie!
Just a quick development update. Christopher has been able to roll from his tummy to back for awhile now and has rolled from his back to tummy (2-3 times); but as of this week he rolls all over frequently!
He also eats 2-3 baby foods/day (2.5-3.5oz packages). He sleeps from 7ish- 7ish but still wakes up at least 1x per night to nurse. We are going to try a new sleep technique now that mikaels busy season is over.
He naps 3x a day usually in his crib; however if he falls asleep in his car seat he loves sleeping in that.
