Question for Michele (or Scott):

From listener Hannah Prokop “I have another question for Michele. I am having a baby this month, and my son turns 3 in February. Is it unrealistic to plan a Disney day or Disney trip with a 3-year-old and 4/5 month old in June?”

Have a question you want me to ask Michele on the show? Email me at Scott@TheMainStreetMouse.com and I will ask it.
