We spent the day at home today because of Superstorm Sandy, and Caitlin got to watch a couple new movies while Ryan and I tried to get some work done (parents of the year, right here).  One of the movies she watched was The Lion King.  We also spent the night down in the basement to be safe even though the storm ended up not being that bad for us.  In this picture, she was telling us how they held the baby lion up to show him to all the animals in The Lion King.

Caitlin's school had Family Fun Night tonight (basically Parent's Night Out), so she got to have dinner at school and then have a movie night complete with popcorn.  Ryan and I showed up to pick her up about 20 minutes before it was officially over, and Caitlin completely lost it.  She was so mad that she had to go home before the other kids.  So much so that she worked herself up, and she threw up her popcorn all over herself on the way home.  Not exactly how we wanted to end the night... Happy 29-month birthday, little girl!  We love you even when you're throwing up!

Caitlin and I walked to the playground in our neighborhood while Ryan was making dinner.  I put my sunglasses on my head, so she decided to do the same.  She found a fuzzy plant and was trying to tickle me with it.

A few weeks ago, she came home from school with a SpongeBob boo-boo pack that she used every day until we finally returned it to school.  Realizing how much she "needed" to have a boo-boo pack at home, I ordered her Woody and Buzz Lightyear boo-boo packs from Amazon.  She uses those things at least once a day when she "hurts" herself.  Most of the time, she won't even let me kiss her boo-boos anymore.  Instead, she just tells me that she needs a boo-boo pack.  :(

Conversations with Caitlin 10.15.12

This morning when I woke her up for school: 
Caitlin: Mommy, my belly hurts.
Me:  Oh no, do you have to go poopy?
Caitlin:  No, my belly is just talking.  It's saying "Feed me, Mommy!".

Another hayride with my girl who looks slightly confused about why she can she both of us on the screen of my phone.

They worked on the letter P at school today, so it was Pajama day, and she got to take something to school for Show and Tell that started with a letter P.  She took her pink purse that Grandmom and Granddad brought her back from Italy.

I'm not actually sure what's going on this picture... Silly girl would not put her shirt back on tonight!

Caitlin had a fieldtrip to Triadelphia Farm today, and I was fortunate enough to be able to go as a chaperone. .   We rode there on a school bus, went on a hayride, picked corn for popping popcorn, went through a corn maze, saw some animals, and also got a pumpkin.  She was very apprehensive about getting on the bus (clinging to me and crying), but as soon as it started moving, she loved it! It was a great day!!

Ryan told her to make her "Roar" face.  Yes, those are her socks on her hands.  Never a dull moment in this house.

That Eagles shirt is always her first pick.  I think she knows it drives me crazy.  Oh well, at least she likes the new hat that I made for her.

Our new addition to the playroom - a homemade chalkboard!  So far, Caitlin loves it!  Caitlin would also like to welcome her new friend Logan Fletcher Clawson into the world.  We can't wait to meet you!!

I cheated and let Caitlin watch Sesame Street on the iPad while Daddy was away for work because I had to straighten up the messy house.  She randomly put that hat on her head while she was watching.
