The Princess Rides in the Car Cart

Yesterday evening, all four of us loaded up for a quick trip to the grocery store. Conall ran into the store, past the pumpkins (can you believe it?), looking for a car cart. There wasn't one with the other carts. He started to get upset and Stu went to the other door to look for one. There wasn't one and Conall proceeded to have a fit, so Stu left with him and took him to the car.

Caitlin and I used a regular cart and started our shopping. We were at the end of the aisle when I heard Caitlin say really loud "Hi Conall, Hi Conall, Hi Conall!" with all the exuberance of a little sister. Stu and Conall had come back into the store and Conall was riding in a car cart. We switched Caitlin to the car cart with Conall and finished our shopping.

As we were leaving, Conall was "driving" the cart. Caitlin started saying "Bye" to the checker and the store. She kept waving, without even looking back, like a little princess on a float at a parade. It was so cute! She is just the happiest little girl.
