    Hi, Heather! We will be taking my son for the 1st time to Disney for his 2nd b-day the 1st weekend in April. I'll also be bringing my 6 month old infant.  Any suggestions on where to stay, what to bring, etc.?

    Hi!! Jennifer!! How exciting!!  I would suggest staying at either Pop Century if you are looking for a Value Resort, or Port Orleans French Quarter for a moderate Resort.  If you have more flexibility staying at one of the Deluxe Resorts on the Monorail line, is definitely a benefit.  I would recommend the Polynesian, The Grand Floridian, and then The Contemporary.  Donald Duck has a great Safari Breakfast at the Tusker House, located in the Animal Kingdom.  It's a must see..for boys.  You may want to hold off on purchasing the tickets that include the water parks, at 2 there isn't as much of a drawl.  I found when my kids were that little, they were just as happy to swim in the hotel pool, and it saved a chunk of change.  The resorts have cribs, and towels.  When we stayed at the Pop Century, we had to use our room towels for the pool, so, pack some beach towels.  If you don't have the space just call housekeeping before you head to the pool and they will bring more towels. The Baby Centers in each of the parks have bottled water to help with bottles and food.  There are diapers, baby food, and I've purchased a binky, a pacifier.  You can also ship a package for baby before you arrive.  This helps immensely, and ship stuff home.  Have a great time!!!  Heather M.
