Caitlin had a pretty good day today.  She got a haircut (and a lollipop), got to ride the carousel at the mall, and then got to go shopping at the Disney store to use a gift card from her birthday.  She picked out a Minnie Mouse water bottle and Peter Pan, and Peter Pan got to go on our walk with us after dinner.


This was my view for the walk tonight.

We took a walk to the playground after dinner tonight.  Little sister slept through the whole thing. 


Big sister loved having the playground all to herself tonight though.

Sporting her University of Delaware onesie before it gets too small.  Yay Blue Hens!


Ryan walked outside to try to calm Natalie down and this is what he found.  So, we all quickly went outside and checked it out. 


Coming back from a little walk with Daddy and Natalie.  This is so Caitlin right now, boo-boos all over her legs (because she's a little bit clumsy these days) and always skipping or jumping or running.   I'm thinking maybe we should be stock in Band Aids because we've been going through them so quickly! 

June 27

I was cleaning out the closet in the nursery and found a glove and ball for Caitlin.  She was so excited and wanted to play "catch" with us all night. 


And, a cute picture of chubba wubba is for Aunt Alexis.  :)  Love those chubbs!

Sweet sleeping pic of Natalie because let's face it, other than eating and pooping, that's all this kid is up to these days. 


First time picking up Caitlin from school with Natalie in tow.  She was so excited to see Natalie and show her to her teacher.  She has since requested that Daddy pick her up with Natalie so she can show Ms. Jeanne (her teacher).  This is kind of crazy, but somehow, having both kids in the car at the same time made it more real that we have two kids. 

June 25

Hanging out at the O's game with Daddy, Aunt Maryann and Mom-Mom.  Seriously, she gets to do ALL the fun things these days! 


Meanwhile, I got to hang out with little sister

I don't think these newborn clothes are going to last much longer! #slowdownlittlegirl

Natalie got to meet Mom-Mom and Aunt Maryann last night!


Caitlin told us at dinner tonight that that morning Minnie had woken up and wanted food, so she fed her from her boobie.  So, after dinner, she realized that Cookie Monster was hungry and proceeded to show us how she feeds him.  Never a dull moment around here.   I'm proud momma though - she's so sweet.

My little cross-eyed girl. 


Still has a fever, but seems to be feeling a little better so we did bubbles on the deck after dinner tonight. 

June 22

Poor kid had a fever today.  She passed out on her beanbag chair for a while this evening. 


Thought it would be fun to show a comparison shot of the 2 girls.  Natalie is 11 days old in this picture. 


Caitlin is 14 days old in this one. 

June 21

Big sister (aka Hollywood) got to go to the pool with Daddy tonight.


While little sister and I hung out at home.

A sneak peek from our zero month photo shoot.  (a separate post coming shortly)

June 19

Love this kid and her expressions. 


A rare picture with sister's eyes open.  Don't worry, it didn't last very long. 

June 18

Thought this was the sweetest picture.  She loves her Barbies so much that she needs to cuddle with them in bed. 


And a sweet picture of little sister snoozing. 

June 17

First doctor's appointment today.  She weighs 7lbs, 13oz. 

June 16

Happy Father's Day to the best Daddy around!!  Love this picture of Ryan and his girls so much!

June 15

Littlest cousin (love the open eyes and double chin).


Middle cousin (with a messy face)


Big cousin (there is just something that I love about this one). 

June 14

Ready to head home from the hospital. 


She loves eating dinner out on the deck!

June 13

Our first picture as a family of 4 (with me looking a little crazy-eyed).  :)


Also, this one... when did she turn into a teenager??  She seems so grown up to me now that Natalie is here. 

June 12

Happy Birthday, Natalie Claire!! 





Meeting big sister for the first time.  Caitlin is THRILLED that she has a sister.



Big sister playing with the gift that Natalie got for her.  Definitely a big hit! 

June 11

No pictures from today because I went into labor!  We left for the hospital basically as soon as Ryan got home from work, and it didn't even occur to me to take any pictures with everything going on. 

June 10

Reading her princess books all by herself with the help of her Me Reader. 

Happy to be one week old today. #notarealsmilebutstillcute
