Today we are hanging out at Animal
0:01
Kingdom Lodge. It's my son Noah's sixth
0:04
birthday. Naa also turned 9 months 2
0:06
days ago and my niece was born
0:08
yesterday, so we're celebrating lots of
0:10
fun things. But I'm just going to take
0:11
you guys along as we hang out today. We
0:12
are getting ready to board the train so
0:15
that we can head on over to Rafiki's
0:17
planning lot. This is actually something
0:18
we've never done before. So I'm excited
0:20
to do that. So we opted out of the Lion
0:22
King show and the Nemo show so that we
0:24
can try this one. We'll probably do
0:25
Kilimanjari Safari later on. Um, next up
0:28
is Expedition Everest. And we just
0:31
finished the Avatar Na River Journey,
0:34
which I was
0:35
Yeah,
0:37
which I was extremely really upset to
0:40
see that they took down the animatronic.
0:42
So, there's that. But still a pretty
0:45
cool, relaxing ride. Definitely not the
0:47
same experience. But we're going to see
0:48
what we can get into over at Rafiki's
0:50
Planet Watch. And if you're new to the
0:52
channel, then I make sure to go ahead
0:53
and subscribe. Join our Disney loving
0:55
family. It's me, my husband CJ, my
0:56
six-year-old son, Noah, as well as my
0:58
9month old baby girl in the van, and
1:00
we'll take you guys along for our Disney
1:02
family vacation, sharing all the helpful
1:04
tips and tricks along the way. So, let's
1:05
pour the drink.
1:10
[Music]
1:13
We got Noah's birthday shirt from the
1:14
Etsy website. It's pretty cute. Says
1:17
it's my birthday on the back and it has
1:19
his name and his age on the front of it.
1:21
Happy birthday.
1:23
Thank you. How was your birthday going
1:25
so far?
1:25
Good.
1:26
Yeah. You having fun?
1:28
How old are you?
1:34
Six years old.
1:35
Cool. High five.
1:37
Spread out. Spread out.
1:39
Yeah. Give Yeah, Emma. Good.
1:43
because I've been on so many times.
1:46
[Music]
1:49
I only
1:52
I This is my very first train, Mom.
1:56
It's probably not,
1:58
but like like
2:00
Welcome aboard the Wild Express with
2:02
service to Rafiki's Planet Watch. Here
2:06
you'll discover a wide range of animal
2:08
adventures from the affection section
2:10
where you can get up close and personal
2:12
with domesticated animals like ghost
2:15
sheep and more to sneak peeks at animal
2:18
care in action at our veterinary
2:20
nutrition and science centers. Also, be
2:23
sure to check out the animation
2:25
experience at Conservation Station,
2:28
where you can learn to draw your
2:29
favorite Disney characters. Inspired by
2:32
live animals, the species we care for
2:34
here at Disney's Animal Kingdom are some
2:37
of the very same animals that inspired
2:39
animated classics like The Lion King,
2:42
The Jungle Book, and more.
2:52
animals.
3:09
Look, there's one. Let's go see it.
3:13
Wash your hands after.
3:16
Do you want to pet it?
3:17
Mhm. You do?
3:19
Yeah.
3:19
Okay, let's wait.
3:23
[Music]
3:30
So, we are going to now do the animation
3:32
experience. I think we're going to be
3:33
drawing today. So, I'm going to go to
3:35
baby girl and I'm help Noah a little
3:37
bit.
3:38
Thrives and
3:40
again they're going to be ovals. Now,
3:42
they might dip below that bottom line a
3:44
little bit. That's okay. Look at this.
3:46
See the ovals
3:49
and light
3:50
[Music]
3:54
for
3:55
that. Write the date. So that was pretty
3:57
cool. We did the little petting zoo. We
4:00
only petted like a goat. We saw a pig.
4:02
We looked at some of the little reptiles
4:04
inside the conservation center. And we
4:07
actually did the animation experience.
4:09
That was new. I wasn't expecting us to
4:11
even do that, but my husband wanted to.
4:12
So they drew a picture of Dumbo. That
4:14
was pretty cool. Um, baby girl, she was
4:17
like okay. She did like make a little
4:19
bit of noise and she wasn't mad or
4:21
fussy, but she was a little bit sleepy
4:22
and a little bit bored. So, luckily once
4:25
she started to finally like get bored
4:27
and ready to go, like they were
4:28
finishing up. So, it didn't really take
4:30
that long. I want to say it took maybe
4:31
like 15 minutes. Like the whole like
4:33
drawing experience and then overall like
4:36
the entire experience probably took us
4:39
maybe I don't know an hour like taking a
4:41
train to get over there and then seeing
4:44
the animals, petting the animals,
4:46
washing our hands, doing the whole
4:48
animation experience. So yeah, that was
4:49
pretty cool. So right now it's 5:00. So
4:52
we got here kind of late. I want to say
4:54
we got here around 1:30, 2:00 and um
4:57
they closed at 7:00. So, I am now going
5:00
to walk the boys over to Expedition
5:03
Everest and they're going to do the
5:05
roller coaster. Baby girl obviously
5:07
cannot ride that one. Um, I'm I'm not
5:10
riding it. I just I'm a wimp. If I ever
5:13
ride it is not going to be until like
5:15
the entire family can do it together. By
5:17
the time Noah was finally old enough to
5:19
do Expedition Everest, I think I was
5:21
pregnant. Otherwise, I would have done
5:23
it with him for his first time. It would
5:25
have been like our first time together
5:27
trying something brave. But I was
5:29
pregnant. So he did it with CJ the time
5:31
after that. Na was only 3 months. She
5:33
couldn't do it. She can't do it now. 9
5:36
months. So the next time I ever like
5:38
when I do it with my first time probably
5:39
be Na's first time and we'll all do it
5:41
together. But I'm going to take them
5:43
walk with them over there and then I'm
5:45
going to take baby girls to the baby
5:46
care center, feed her, change her, and
5:48
then we probably will like find a show
5:50
to do or kill them in dry safari or grab
5:52
a bite to eat or something. I don't
5:54
know. We'll see.
5:56
All right. So, we ditched Animal
5:57
Kingdom. Noah wrote Expedition Evers
6:00
like three times and now we are at Chef
6:03
Mickey's because this is where he
6:04
requested us to have dinner for his
6:06
birthday. So, we're at Chef Mickey and
6:08
we're waiting for the characters before
6:10
we grab our plate. I think Pluto is
6:12
coming.
6:14
Look, Noah. It's Pluto.
6:17
[Music]
6:20
I got it. Thank you so much.
6:22
Thanks, Pluto. A
6:34
A
6:36
thanks.
6:39
Oh, cool.
6:43
I think he did.
6:46
He did say it.
6:48
Okay. Well, you got to take pictures
6:49
when the characters come.
6:53
[Laughter]
6:56
Keep your feet in there. I see you.
7:09
[Music]
7:20
want to take a picture with us
7:23
over.
7:24
I see you. Put your foot down.
7:28
No, you can't escape. You got to stay in
7:30
there.
7:44
Yeah, look at
7:48
look.
7:56
I'm going to let Nia take a picture,
7:58
too.
8:00
Oh,
8:03
wow.
8:06
A
8:13
Yeah,
8:15
you got your Mickey ears on.
8:16
Yeah, you like your Mickey ears.
8:21
Awesome.
8:24
Thank you so much.
8:24
Thanks, Mickey.
8:26
Thanks, Mickey.
8:29
[Music]
8:32
He said happy birthday.
8:34
[Music]
8:42
[Music]
8:48
Awesome. Thank you so much.
8:49
Thanks, Goofy.
8:54
[Laughter]
9:01
Thanks, Goofy.
9:03
[Music]
9:13
Hey there, friends. Into our house,
9:15
we're powered up and ready to save the
9:18
day. Celebrating a birthday, first
9:20
visit, anniversary, or simply having the
9:23
best day ever? It's time to get up, get
9:25
loud, and celebrate.
9:28
Uh-oh. It's dance time.
9:32
It's dance time.
9:45
Good.
9:48
[Applause]
9:58
All right, let's get a birthday song
10:00
going. Happy birthday to you.
10:04
Happy birthday to you.
10:08
Happy birthday, dear No.
10:13
Happy birthday to you.
10:16
Thank you.
10:20
Too much.
10:23
Well done. Blow it out.
10:28
I need to see what I I need to get I
10:32
wish I wanted. Yeah,
10:34
I think we're ready.
10:35
I already s the car. It was so with all
10:40
the food.
10:41
That's your wish. Hi, friends. Okay, so
10:43
Noah requested
10:45
Expedition Everest three times in a row.
10:48
So, that is what he did the remainder of
10:50
our Animal Kingdom park day. We let him
10:53
have the option of choosing what we had
10:54
for dinner. He specifically requested
10:56
mac and cheese at Chef Mickey. And
10:58
honestly, it did not disappoint. That
10:59
mac and cheese at Chef Mickey was so
11:02
amazing. So, the kids had a ball at Chef
11:04
Mickey. Um, and it was just an overall
11:07
just a great experience for us all. I
11:09
think that Noah had a good time. He said
11:11
it was the best birthday ever. He said
11:12
that the last time we were here, though,
11:13
so hopefully he means it every time. It
11:16
gets better and better. I don't know.
11:17
But I'm just happy he had a great time.
11:19
We all had a great time. Animal Kingdom,
11:22
the weather was perfect. The crowds was
11:24
perfect. Friday, Friday is the day for
11:27
Animal Kingdom. They closed at 700
11:29
instead of 6:00, but not 8. I feel like
11:31
the when they close at 8:00 either a lot
11:35
of people are going to go that day
11:36
trying to get the most out of the day,
11:38
the most hour and things like that and
11:41
um people would do the 6:00 if they're
11:42
planning on park hopping. Expedition
11:44
Everest literally had a 10-minute
11:46
standby lane which is pretty much a
11:48
walk-on. So our first one was Lightning
11:50
Lane and then after that they the boys
11:53
just kept getting back on it. So he rode
11:56
it as much as he can. Um, and then we
11:59
just headed out, went to the baby care
12:01
center for baby girl and then headed out
12:02
to Chef Mickey. But it had we had a
12:04
pretty good time. So, I don't know. I
12:06
hope that you guys enjoyed our Animal
12:07
Kingdom vlog and just hanging out with
12:09
us in the park and what that looks like
12:11
with, you know, the little ones. Na is 9
12:13
month. Noah is six years old now. So, I
12:16
really hope that you guys just enjoyed
12:18
that with us. Trying to bring a little
12:20
bit more mom life content here. We can
12:22
use a bit more, you know. So, if you're
12:24
a mom to a Disney mama,
12:28
I feel like Disney adults
12:32
I feel like Disney adults and Disney
12:33
moms are different. What do you think?
12:35
Like let me know. I feel like it's just
12:37
this is not the same. So, I don't know.
12:40
But full on Disney mama here. And if
12:42
you're a Disney mama, too, go ahead and
