Disney World 2009

The Rodgers traveled to Disney World for our first vacation with Taylor! We had a splendid time and I'm certain you'll enjoy looking at the pictures.

As you can see we visited a water park with Taylor. We could have visited a water park or hotel pool every day and she would have been pleased as peaches! She is a little water baby and loves going underwater or her version of swimming in shallow water.

Taylor enjoyed the rides at Disney. Going fast or high in the air was not a problem for her and she always wanted to "do it again." Dumbo was her favorite ride but she was riding the carousel horse without anyone holding on by the end of the week.

Waiting in lines was the hardest part of the trip for Taylor. The chains and the people kept her somewhat in line. However, it was not long before she discovered how to climb the fences, swing on the chains, or escape underneath them. Mom carried her alot (the biceps are looking good) and we did have our share of meltdowns.

What did we do when the meltdown happened? Taylor loves brooms and took care of sweeping Main Street Disney. If that didn't work, a big sucker from the confectionary did the trick.

All in all it was a good trip. However, the bet is that Taylor won't remember it in a year or two!














































Taylor & Disney Characters



































































Taylor's fun with the Disney characters deserves an entire blog. We did not know how she would react to the characters as she isn't too familiar with them. Little did we know we did not need to worry. She was full of hugs, kisses, pulled their whiskers, and even danced in circles with Goofy. She definitely put on a show for everyone waiting in line behind us! You won't see her with any princesses or fairies in this blog as she didn't find them exciting or cuddly!

Easter 2009



Taylor enjoyed Easter this year. She especially liked hunting for eggs and finding surprises such as jelly beans & hair bows inside!
