We love the fair!
Our first visit of Fair Season began tonight to the Trumbull County fair. Dinner was steak hoagies, italian sausage and french fries, followed by italian ice for dessert. We spent time walking around to see the animals - sheep, cows and horses. Hailey always cracks me up. She has been raised around Papa Tom's farm (cows) since she was 4 days old. She still doesn't want to get within 5 feet of them (or the sheep or the horses). What a weirdo. :) Kaelin on the other hand, LOVES to pet everything that moves! Kaelin also wants to ride every ride. The problem with that is - she is to short for the adult/big kid rides, and most of the kiddie rides completely bore her. About the only ride for her age group that she likes is the mini roller coaster
(go figure!) She does also like to go down the big slide. Hailey is perfectly content to watch Sissy, and look at all the rides. She does not care for the big slide at all! We will see how the summer continues, because she was showing much more interest in the rides this evening. Hopefully we will get her on more rides (other than the Merry Go Round) in a month or two!
Sorry - I haven't posted in a while. Life is busy as usual. Here is a quick update:
Hailey and Kaelin are growing so quickly. I can't beleive that Hailey will be 2 at the end of the month and then just a week later, Kalein will be 4!
The Hermit Crabs are still alive and flourishing. Actually, Kalein's crab should be called Houdini. It managed to get out of the cage twice (both during the night). The next day I found it behind the fridge once, and in the play room behind Hailey's alphabet train. They now go into lockdown at night.
Justin is still doing well at work and is home from Germany safely.
I am doing ok. I have to get a spinal tap on Friday. They are hoping it will give the herniated/compressed disc in my neck some relief as the physical therapy they assigned me too only irritated the problem instead of correcting it. I am so grateful for Amy, Barb and Jecca - they have all been helping take turns watching the girls for me as I had to go to therapy three times a week! I don't know what I would do without them!
Up and coming for our family:
- more trips to the fairs in the area!
- Family Reunions for the Magee's and Trezona's in August.
- The girls' big summer birthday party will be August 14th.
- While the girls' don't know yet, I am getting very excited for my parent's visit in August!
- September brings us Justin's 30th birthday - which he is celebrating by going to Las Vegas for a weekend with my brother (for his 21st) and his brother. Should be interesting :) yes, I am a bit worried!! j/k
Hailey caught her first fish! She did NOT want to touch it though. She would get close and giggle. She also wanted nothing to do with the worms.
I loved this pic of Hailey - she looks so big!
