Fair and Pumpkins

With all the goings on, the fair kept getting pushed back. I finally took peanut and baby p on Saturday. I was pretty hesitant to take them both by myself. I even called in for reinforcements. It was great though. Peanut was a champ at petting and seeing the animals. I love to walk through the barns. This year it was even more fun because the owners loved how enthusiastic my little girl was. We ate some yummy fair food and rode some rides. I think we were there for about 3 hours total. I think that is pretty good for a mommy and two kids who were up past their bedtime.

I wish I could have caught peanut's face on the rides. All the ones I took of her came out blurry. She LOVED the airplane. it started out running them backwards. She loved it. You can see her at the fourth window back.

Here is where I stuck my kid on a ride with some random stranger. I couldn't ride because I had Baby P and a stroller and, well, she was mom. I warned her that nothing she could do would scare my peanut.

When she saw this ride, she said, "I want to ride that". UH, not on your life little girl. It just isn't going to happen. 2 -year olds can be so insensitive. (I say all that poking fun at myself)


And the pumpkin patch...

Mom and dad went with us to the pumpkin patch. Like everyone else, the one we usually went to was closed so we went out to the one in Mayflower. I wish we had more time to stay and maybe do a pony ride or something. It was really neat. We took a hayride out to the pumpkin field. The owners had the road to the patch lined with all sorts of scary goblins. We would point them out and say "oooohhh scary".

Like she is ever scared of anything.

You are a brave woman! Noah is terrible out and about. He will not ride in a stroller and I could no way picture carrying him all around. But, you did it with 2 babies all by yourself. I am way impressed.
