Soaking it all in: Hmm....I think the cruise made my clothes shrink

Hi(This is going to be a BIG post)! We have made it back home safely. Today I am bleaching everything because Squirt is either teething or caught a bug(the rotavirus). We are not sure. The flight home yesterday was terrible. I should say I hate to fly. It was turbulence all the way home and it didn't help here in good ole' CO there were terrible wind gusts. Fishtail landings are not fun. Squirt slept the whole way home and I thought he felt so warm gave him some Tylenol. There was a wonderful RN in the seat in front and felt him (after the Tylenol) and her thoughts were he was warm but not feverish at the moment. We got home and he was running a 103 temp. We let it go for an hour and the Tylenol was not cutting it so we headed to St. Anthony's North to have him checked out. He threw up twice while we were there so they gave him some Zofran(I think they made him puke). Their best guess was he has a mild case of the rotavirus or he is teething........we will go see what Dr. Meyer thinks tomorrow. So now I am bleaching EVERYTHING I can get my hands on :)
How was the trip other than that? AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are definitely going to do it again.....when we save a lot more money. Everyone was so kind and courteous and there was so much to do. We defiantly ate, ate and ate. It more than shows. My favorite part was definitely Castaway Cay, Disney's private Island. It is beautiful, just beautiful. I have to say that some may argue but I really think little girls between the ages of 3-???? have the most fun. Why would I say that? The princesses. Watching these little girls interact with their favorite characters was so sweet. I honestly wished I could have done that as a little girl.
The Pirate's Party night was so much fun and it was great to see how many people young and old dress up as pirates. Again, awesome. Here are some things we learned(there is a ton). Most things are specific to the Disney Cruise.

Flying with an infant/toddler- We found Delta to be more friendly and helpful than Ted was. Ted was OK but Delta I think went out of their way. All around flying was a lot easier than I thought. If you have a crying kiddo, don't worry about what people are thinking around you. They have headphones and the flight isn't going to last forever. A lot of people are even willing to help you feel comfortable enough to ask. Squirt did great. Better than we ever expected.

Cruise- 3 and over is a lot easier than with 3 and under. More programs but that also means more chances of the kiddo getting sick. The other thing that seemed to help was traveling in a group. We have 10 hours in the nursery the rest of the time we either did things all together or we would switch off.
Nursery/ Play time- Nursery staff was fantastic. Every time we would check on him he was happy or asleep. The nursery was only for those children under 3 and they had a few times called family time so the children could get comfortable with staff with you being there. The rest of the time was reserved for those signed up for babysitting. If the children wanted to play outside those times, we could take them where the bigger children played. We had to be with him but it let crawl and play. We now know we are going to have to buy a slide. They also had a little pool only for the toddlers. Squirt liked it but would have rather been swimming with the big kids.
Adults- Since our honeymoon, they have added a lot to accommodate adults. I was a little sad we didn't get to explore more of this because they really had a lot of cool things. They still don't have gambling but bingo did get up to 3,500 bucks. I sadly was 3 numbers away :( The adults have their own pool, place at Castaway Cay and loads of entertainment at night.
All in all, it is an expensive but fantastic vacation. I hope we can all take one together someday.
If you want to know more, please feel free to ask :)
