Keeping busy til Daddy comes...

Ok, I said the next post would be of Daddy getting home...but he's not home yet so we have been keeping ourselves very busy to pass the time. On Saturday the kids and I went to the Lucas County Fair here in Maumee. We don't have a lot of pictures because basically it was not such a great fair. I knew it wouldn't be because city people don't know how to throw a fair. It's much better to go to the one out in the sticks where Mommy grew up...country people know how to do it right so we'll go to the Fulton County one at the end of August. But, oh well...it got us out of the house for a few hours and the kids got to see a few animals and ride around in the wagon which is always a good time. Ian's favorite thing was the lawn mower races which were pretty funny to watch so we got a picture of that.




On Sunday, the Toledo Zoo had a special event for kids sponsored by Fisher Price so we went with Grandma Sheila and Grandpa Tom. All the animals in the Children's Zoo were around and Ian got to pet lots of goats.

They also had a huge tent set up with every Fisher Price toy you could imagine out for the kids to play with. All those toys and what does Ian play with? Only the cars. He went around from table to table and gathered anything with four wheels then sat and played with those. At least he wasn't interested in the doll houses or makeup sets I guess.




Today we spent all day at home playing inside to keep cool. Tomorrow we are going to try the Wood County fair down in Bowling Green which I've never been to before so we'll see how good they are about fairs down there. Then hopefully our next bit of excitement will be Daddy's return. Til then....

Ok, I'm not even exaggerating, when I clicked on the video and Drew heard it he ran in from the living room and said very excitedly "Is that my Ian?" So cute. Great pictures, and I concur, nothing look a good county fair in the middle of nowhere. Very excited for you for your reunion!
