Canfield Fair 2010
We took the kids to the Canfield Fair over the weekend. They had a great time. Payton and Kiera rode a lot of rides together and had a ball. The only ride Payton did not like was the dragon rollercoaster. I think she would have liked it has she not hit her face on the bar when it went around the first bend. They had to stop the ride so that she could get off since she was crying. Oh well, maybe next year. Caleb was great all afternoon. He napped a little in the stroller and was pleasant all day. We saw lots of animals and ate lots of greasy food. Overall, it was a great day. Here are some pictures.
First Haircut
I had Payton's hair trimmed last weekend because it was out of control. It is not long by any means but it was all different lengths so it needed to be trimmed up. My sister-in-law cuts hair for a living so we did it at her house. Here are some pictures of this adventure.
Catch up
Okay, so I have been a slacker lately. I have been busy getting back into the routine of a "working mom." I have been teaching for three weeks now and am just now starting to feel like we are back into our daily grind. Here is what has been happening at our house.
Caleb: He will be 7 months old in four days. He is the happiest baby on the planet. There is very few times that he cries and it usually means that he is tired or hungry. At his 6 month appointment he was 16.1 pounds and was 27.5 inches tall. He is a great eater. He takes 4-5 six ounce bottles a day and is eating two meals a day. He loves veggies and some fruit. He has started to get up on his hands and knees already and rock back and forth. He has also figured out that rolling gets him places. We often find him in the toy shelf trying to get at anything. Many times he has pulled one of the buckets off the shelf. He is not ready to sit up yet but we are working on it. Caleb absolutely LOVES Payton. Whenever she is around, he constantly has his eyes on her and is often laughing at her. He is an amazing sleeper. Two naps a day and sleeping 12+ hours at night. He is a WONDERFUL baby!!
Payton: So much to say, so little space. She is a riot these days. Most everything that comes out of her mouth leaves me in stitches. She loves watching Strawberry Shortcake and Care Bears. She has just recently gotten into the movie "Follow that Bird." For those of you who don't know what that it, it is a 1983Sesame Street movie about Big Bird. She is very bossy, so we are working on using our manners when asking for something. It is getting better but we still have some work to do. The potty isn't as interesting as it was a few weeks ago. She will suggest when she wants to sit on the potty and other than that, it is off limits. Her imagination has begun to take off. She often asks me to play pretend with her. She can sing Twinkle, Twinkle, and knows her abc's. She is good at knock-knock jokes. Payton has also taken more of an interest in Caleb. She has tried to pick him up and loves to make him laugh! She is the light of my life!
