One of the best parts of attending the Social Media Moms Celebration was getting to stay in Walt Disney World at one of their deluxe accommodations. Our room at the Polynesian Resort was quite spacious with two queen beds, a sofa that converted into a daybed, and a nice lounging chair. It also had two nice lighted closets and refrigerator, great saving money by for stashing fruit and yogurt for breakfast and extra drinks. 
I enjoyed the overall look of the Polynesian, the repeated tropical theme and feel to the room and grounds. Traditional bamboo and rattan are used throughout; a nice touch was how the headboards had lights attached set on dimmers, so great for a just a little light when little ones are sleeping.
Across from the beds was a nice desk and chair where I could plug our lap top in. It was also a handy place to sit and get ready in the morning, freeing up the bathroom. Next to that was a chest of drawers that quickly got covered up with a mountain of souvenirs and park maps. I am so glad I took pictures of the room before we got settled in and spread out all our stuff. 
The bathrooms had a real luxe feel to them and lots of details that Disney is really known for and that make your stay special.
Like the light fixtures with their carved bases, echoing the theme of the resort and the cute towel and wash cloth duck. 
I've never been on a cruise, although I know exactly what kind I want to go on, so I've never seen a towel animal before. I was probably way too excited about that. But hey it's good to appreciate the little things, right? 
Signs of Mickey were even on the complimentary toiletries, I brought these cute bottles home with us. Mouse ears were also stamped into the hand soaps. 
The one other time we stayed in the parks, over ten years ago and in accommodations that no longer exist, I remember being most impressed by how Mickey was incorporated throughout. This time did not disappoint. We even got a tribute to Mickey on our bed when we entered.
We did not have a balcony but still got to enjoy a lovely view of the grounds next to the Rarotonga building we stayed in and the pool near our window. It's just too bad it wasn't warm enough to go swimming.
Judging by how soundly ER is sleeping, I'd say the room was hit. We only had a few minor quibbles about our stay; overall we were happy with our stay the Polynesian. It was great having access to the monorail for easy access to the Magic Kingdom the park best geared toward our 3.5 year old. I'll have more on the grounds of the Polynesian in tomorrow's post. You've got to see how gorgeous the Great Ceremonial house is.Disclaimer: Accommadations at the Polynesian were included in my conference fee to the Social Media Moms Celebration, at a greatly reduced price.
Amy sent me four lovely hair accessories for ER, clipped all together, it was like gettiing a little ribbon bouquet. Everything looked so pretty and was wrapped in a clear bag to protect them during shipping. We also got a ribbon covered headband that we can clip any of the hair bows onto and wear together. 
I was impressed with the workmanship, the ribbon ends were clipped nice and smooth and there were no signs of glue or adhesive residue anywhere. Non-slip grip had been added to each of the alligator clips so I don't have to worry about it slidding off ER's baby fine hair. 
I really like the combinations of colors, ribbon widths, and patterns. I know from making clippies for ER, I couldn't recreate one of Amy's bows for the same price. Not that I could anyway, because I don't know how to make most of the elaborate
