Fair Time

This week was the fair in Shelby. I think the best part may have been walking in to the fair grounds. Penelope saw the buildings, the colorful flags and everything and started jumping up and down and squealing and yelling "look, flags." She was so excited and we hadn't even done anything yet. We decided it was a good time to introduce rides to Penelope and she had a great time. She loved the kid rides and she even held her arms ups when we went on the roller coaster and kept saying "wooooo." We only lasted about 2 hours at the fair because it was hot and both girls got tired rather quickly, but we had a great time.
We also got to go to the parade and I so wish I had had the camera with me to get a video of Penelope. She was jumping up and down, laughing hysterically and yelling "here they come" as she saw the different floats and cars coming down the road. It was so funny. I am so sad that I don't have a video of it.




Penelope won this little unicorn on a "fishing" game.

Eleanor was so patient and enjoyed watching everything.

Rain

We had a great rain storm yesterday and I couldn't resist letting Penelope go out and play in it. She had such a great time. Eleanor didn't like the rain at all, so we had to stand and watch from the doorway. Otherwise, I would have been out there playing with her.


Lying in a puddle. I wonder what the neighbors were thinking. :)Shivering!

She had so much fun but she was ready to come in because she was tired of the 5 lb pull-up! So we went inside and she took a nice warm bath.

Unique

So, both of our girls love their pacifiers and both have unique ways of putting them in their mouths. I thought Penelope's way of putting her bottom lip over her paci was strange, but then we had Eleanor. . .
