Downtown Disney

We went to Downtown Disney, which was a pretty nice place. It was a long strip with different restaurants, with different kinds of music playing, they had shows like Cirque de Soleil, and all kinds of shops to do shopping. It was a real nice atmosphere. We went to the movie theater, which was huge, to see Monsters vs. Aliens in 3-D. It was a nice night.

The Blue Wall

Once we got downtown, I spotted this cool blue wall. But just look at the pictures I managed to get. Cailin is about to run off in this one.

And Ariel started doing push-ups on the wall to get Cailin to stay put.

She Strikes Again.....

She can't help herself. You put a camera in her face and look what she does!

Just Hanging out around the house

Are you sleepy Cailin?

Look at that belly button! Isn't it so cute?! It hasn't gone in yet but it has gotten smaller since she was a baby. She is sooo sleepy here. It's nap time and with us being away from home, they don't happen as scheduled. She just falls apart without a nap!

If I asked her right now with that sleepy look on her face and the fact that she is sitting still for more than two seconds, "Cailin are you sleepy?" She would yell, "No Way!" That's her favorite saying right now. For every question you ask her the response is always the same "no way!"


If I asked her, "Cailin would you like to take a nap?"
She would answer, "No-I-don't-want-no-nap!" This is her second favorite saying. She just changes it to whatever the subject is your asking.
One day we were in the grocery store and Cailin was whining to get out of the basket. Ariel was trying to distract her by asking her if she seen the baby that was coming our way. She screams to Ariel and says, "No I don't want no baby!" Hilarious!

Our Favorite Ride

We found a mini-amusement park on International Drive in Orlando. It had a gameroom, rides, and go-carts. This was probably our favorite ride or at least the ride that we rode the most. You don't know exactly when it would happen, but all of a sudden you would be zipped up the tower.

To the very top.

Then dropped straight back down.

Even Cailin thought it was high.

I think Ariel rode the most times, because she rode with each adult 2-3 times.

Poor Cailin was so sick of riding in her stroller. Look at that face!

Go Carts

We rode the Go Carts and it was fun! The line was extremely long for this particular one because it was a long trail that had steep hills to go up and down on. In fact it was a little scary going down. My Mom and Ariel waited like an hour to get in this car.

Meanwhile, I was able to get on this cart and trail like twice in just that amount of time. I felt so old out there driving. All the teeny boppers were passing me by!

Bumper Cars

We rode the bumper cars.

Mini-Bungee Jump

There weren't many things for toddlers there. So, when we seen this ride Cailin ran right over to it. She let these girls strap the harness on without any problems. I thought she would have fun.

As she was being lifted in the air, she assumed this position- she held on as she was told and kept her legs bent like a frog.


Those poor girls worked hard to trying to get her to smile and jump. This was about as close as they got to a smile!


They got a little smile, but mostly just looks like she was thinking "what in the world are you doing to me?!"



So I thought that maybe if I got out there and jumped with her, she would jump and start to have fun. Nope! I think I had more fun jumping on the trampoline than she did!
sidenote: Before Jerry arrived, I was taking pictures of Cailin jumping. I took maybe 20 pictures. I handed Jerry the camera, while I went out there to jump with her and he took about 100 pictures! So I had to look at all 100 before picking out 2 or 3 to blog. Phew!
