Fair Day!

Saturday we went to the fair. We had a blast! The first time we took Maddie to the fair it was two years ago and Maddie was only about 6 months old, so she slept most of the time. This year, she wanted to walk everywhere, which was fine, because, we had the monkey leash. I was freaked about by the enormous crowds, but it turned out fine. I couldn't expect her to want to be in her stroller the whole time.

We had a real blast! This year we went a little later in the afternoon and stayed to see all the fair lights. Maddie was absolutely exhausted, since she refused to take a nap before we left the house, and we didn't leave the fair till after 10. It took her all about 10 seconds to fall asleep when we got in the car.

Maddie rode her first roller coaster! It was so cute! she gripped the handles tightly the whole time. I asked her if she wanted to throw her hands in the air, but she ignored me and kept her fingers tightly on the handle bar. She immediately wanted to go again when it was over. Unfortunately, the it took several tickets to be able to ride the rides, and come-on, we are not made of money. I didn't eat anything at the fair this year, Brian had a couple of corny dogs (EW!), but I just couldn't make myself eat any of that fried fair food.

We had a great time, and will definitely be making plans to go again next year!










At first she was scared to feed the animals, but once she started, she didn't want to stop!

She got really crazy with the ice cream. It went everywhere, but what she was concerned about was were it had gotten on her hands.

We rested for a little bit. It was hot.
