G just did the Bibbity Bobbity Boutique (BBB) at WDW in Orlando a few weeks ago. Normally we wouldn't do something like this again so soon. But our friends, Sophie and Paula, are going to be moving in a few weeks and Sophie had never done BBB. She'd also never been to the princess meal at Calif Adventure so, what the heck!! we joined them for the fun.
The park opened at 8am and G and I were inside by 8:05. Off to ride Peter Pan and Dumbo and then meet P and S at the BBB soon after.
The girls prior to being BBB'd
We brought our outfit with us this time, Jasmine from Alladin. We added shoes (they were so cute! and looked much more comfortable than most princess shoes). After changing into the costume, G's transformation began. I was surprised to see that we got Virginia who was our FGIT when G first did BBB on her 3rd birthday.
G's hair is long so it took awhile to get it all up in a bun. G chose the "Diva" look because it results in long hair. Sophie chose the same!
Virginia took a long time fixing, fluffing and teasing G's "hair"
The brochure picture of the "diva" look showed two rhinestone clippies instead of a tiara. I'm not sure if they were out of clippies or what but both the girls were able to choose a tiara. I think G was happy with the outcome! Besides every princess needs a tiara, right?
After the hair came make up, nail polish and choice of ring.
Finally "bibbity bobbity boo" and a significant sprinkling of pixie dust and it was time for the big reveal...
Ta duh!!! Introducing Princesses Sophie and Georgiana!!!
There are some things that are better at wdw than at disneyland but BBB, overall, is not one of them. The wdw room is fancier for sure but DL's reveal is so much better! Its super cute when the spin the girls around in the seat, pull back the curtains and finally let the girls see their princess self. The mirror has little lights that sparkle. Adorable!
The other thing that's better at DL is the photo opportunity afterward. At wdw they do take pix and the area is nice --pretty background, small upholstered bench-- but nothing special. DL has a Cinderella's coach which is the cutest thing ever. G actually didn't remember it from last time which was not surprising because she had only just turned three so when she saw it this time she was really excited.

See? Cute. I would have eaten this up when I was four.
We had enough time to take advantage of lots of photo opportunties
Ride the carousel
And make a team effort at pulling the sword from the stone. The tried really,
really,
really,
really,
really,
really, really hard!!! Unfortunately, they couldn't get it to budge. I've heard that the CMs have a button they can push to release the sword... wouldn't that be awesome!
On our way to make our regular visit to Snow White's pond or fountain or whatever it is, we found Peter Pan just chilling with hardly anyone around.
G loves this little area next to castle. She always asks me to take her picture here. As always, I love her poses
I just stand there and watch her go
G saw this swan topiary and said "mama, mama, look!! take my picture" then she hopped up on the bench and got herself set up with her chosen legs-to-the-side pose. I was just about to snap the shot when she stopped me, asked for her glasses and explained she needed them so "I don't look all squinty from the sun" HAHA!!! I almost died laughing. That little girl cracks me up.
Fun day!
