Florida: Day 7: Magic Kingdom: Monstrous Summer All-Nighter

Day 7 of our Florida trip was spent at Magic Kingdom where they were having their Monstrous All-Nighter! The park opened up at 6am and was open until 6am the following morning. We weren't sure exactly what time we wanted to get there and if we would we go back for a nap and come back, but I think we ended up getting there around 8am. We had initially thought we would go back to the house to take naps but we just ended up staying at the park all day..until about 2 or 3 am! We were just non-stop doing things and didn't want to leave!


 We happened to be walking into the park and a parade was just starting so we stopped to watch!









Our Monstrous buttons!



 In line to meet Merida from Brave


Kempton meeting Merida :)



After we met Merida Cohen got a chance to shoot her bow. He loved it!


 Off to meet Woody and Jessie from Toy Story!


 Taking a break! It was hot!




 Taking a ride on the train. I remember that there was some delay on the train and we sat there on the train in the station for 15 minutes. It was so hot and Kemp was getting so crabby!

 Kemp was better once the train started moving and we got some breeze!

 We got off the train and ran into another parade!



 Love this picture!





 So cute that Dweedle Dee and Dweedle Dum came over to us, but too bad Cohen had no idea who they were!




Cohen was so excited to see the Beast coming around the corner!




Taking a break in the air-conditioned arcade!

Playing basketball with Tyson

And driving with Jeff!
Ran into Mike and Sulley driving around :)


Cohen was playing with his Beauty and the Beast toys while waiting to meet Gaston

Gaston!

One of Cohen's favorite rides was driving the cars! He was hilarious!


I had just as much fun as he did!




Not the best video, but I had to stop holding the camera and hold onto him because he was too crazy!



And back to the arcade to cool off!

Kempton was excited to meet Princes Tiana


Meeting Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen from Princess and the Frog

Mr. Kemp got a big ole kiss from Tiana


Cohen just loves the castle :)

He had to touch it
The Beast's castle from Beauty and the Beast

Enchanted Tales with Belle was one of my favorite things! Hopefully next time Cohen will want to participate in the little show.

But for now they both just seemed to enjoy watching it!





The kid's couldn't quite handle the "all-nighter"

We met back up with Tyson, Hannah, Jeff and Mandy for some late night fun on the teacups!

Hannah, Tyson, Dan and I  barely fit in the teacup!



Apparently, Kemp woke back up for a little bit of shopping!




Meeting Sleeping through meeting Chip and Dale in their PJs :)

Oh my goodness...one more day of Disneyworld coming up!

Love,

Kempton- 10.25 months :)

Kempton is just over 10 months old! He has changed so much since the last update. Here's a little about Mr. Kempton!

Kempton is the sweetest, happiest baby. We received a call from daycare the other day...he didn't have a fever or anything, but he didn't really smile much during the day so they were concerned that something was wrong. :)

Kemp wears 9-12 month clothes and some 18 month shirts.

He gets the biggest smile on his face when he sees mom, dad and Cohen

Kemp still wakes up happy every morning and from naps!

He has 4 teeth. 2 on the bottom and 2 on top

He loves playing with cars and throwing balls, but will basically play with anything. He does also enjoy tearing apart paper towels and ripping apart any kind of paper....


 Kempton absolutely loves bath time. He would play in the bath for hours if we would let him. If Cohen is taking a bath Kemp will crawl into the bathroom and stand right at the tub
 He just discovered how to fill the cup up with water and dump it on himself, which he finds quite funny.



 There's a picture of his two top teeth!





 Kemp's favorite foods to eat are pancakes and toast

 He also loves putting things in buckets or tubs and then taking them all out. He loves taking  the clothes out of the laundry basket and his teachers at daycare says he likes taking out all the toys in the toybox :)


Kempton has discovered the stairs! Ahhh! He only climbed up a few and we were right there, but we'll have to block them off soon!


 Kempton loves playing with toys, especially anything that his big brother is playing with.

 Love this adorable picture of them playing trains together. :)



Kempton is also very good at stacking blocks! 

Some videos...Kempton was taking a couple steps the other night. This was the only video I got, but he did do better at other times. We're getting there! We love that he always smiles and claps whenever we get excited. He is such a happy baby!


Kempton absolutely LOVES his brother and I don't really think anyone can make him laugh like Cohen. And Cohen just loves Kemp too, which is so sweet! I am so grateful for them.



Here's a video of Kemp and Cohen playing basketball...Kemp with the assist! (and he's pretty excited about it!)


Love,
Katie
