Disney World from Owen's Perspective

Little Owen did his best to keep up on vacation. He was a good little guy for being 2 and away from home for a week!! We wore him down pretty good.
He had so much fun yelling 'hey' for the camera. We were waiting for everyone else to finish a ride. That was the story of Owen's trip, he had to do a lot of waiting with Mom or Dad to finish rides with Ellie. However, there was a TON he could go on and he enjoyed what he did ride.


One of his favorite rides was Spaceship Earth. He loved it for a few reasons. One, he was in awe of the 'big ball' at Epcot. He would pretend to try and lift it and grunt like it was just to heavy. On this ride, you get to go in the big ball and ride around. The other reason he liked the ride was it took a picture of you at the beginning and then pasted your face on these people at the end. He cracked up when he saw my head and his head on these little people dancing around!!


He enjoyed the Disney Dining plan as much as we did. This was our German meal, he loved the mac and cheese!!


We did endure a few '2' moments!! He would pout, cry and throw some tantrums - but they just made the trip memorable and he acted just as I expected!!





He and Ellie both get a kick out of the 3-D movies. Here he is trying to be mr. big stuff walking into the theater.




One of his favorite rides was the car the sister drove around the track.






A highlight for him was being able to eat chocolate chip muffins in bed watching playhouse disney every morning!!









Our sweet little guy taking a break.







He LOVED the characters!!









Thank goodness he is still little enough to crash wherever. A sleeping child in a stroller is an often seen site at Disney!!










Sporting his custom made earplugs for the first time. He did great wearing them the second time swimming!! I learned the plugs will float:)











Something that entertained Owen at many meals was putting small pieces of food down his straw. This was done in particular with rice and corn!! He is for sure our engineer in the making!!












Hanging out in Norway.













Again, he crashed in the stroller. This was even during the fireworks!!













Happy guy in the stroller. He did a great job of riding - but he did figure out how to disengage himself!! He would still sit, and just do and undo the buckle.

















He was particularly fond of Mickey Mouse. He just giggled and giggled when he came over!! You can tell by the look on his face how excited he is!!















He LOVED Isabelle. He would hold her hand and sit with her whenever he could. She was a great help!!

















I don't know, is it a good idea to let a 2 year-old drink red bull before boarding a plane for a 3 hour flight??? Thank heavens it was empty!! I wouldn't want to find out!!!
