Hi guys
Just back and had a great time (just posted a blurb on WDW site). I had posted a question here about taking our 18 mt old baby's backpack if we would have trouble on the rides. No one really knew so I risked it. It worked great!! No problems taking it with us on any rides (any that you can take a baby on anyway). He was much happier being higher up (not the butts eye view from the stroller). Also- best meal for finicky kids for us was the Rose and Crown Pub. We didn't order the kids menus stuff, but instead the fruit and cheese plate. We ordered fish and chips for one of the adults as well as Salmon and then shared it all. The kids ate grapes, apples, bread, cheese some fish and only a few fries. This may have been the only meal except for breakfast in our hotel room where our baby ate something other than fries!
Thanks for all your tips.

Good to know!! We don't have a backpack, but will have to think about it now for whan we take our baby (to DL not WDW, but I'm sure it would work out the same).

mckat thanks so much for the info. My son is only going to be 5 months old when were in Disney the 1st week of Febuary but we're going to bring our BackPack/Stroller combo along with our standard stoller. My son loves looking around at people and normally hates being in his stroller so this might be the perfect thing for his inquisitive personality. Will let you know how it goes.
