We took Noah to the fair this year by himself. Jakob is still a little small to make the trip. Plus, we had a big surprise for Noah...we took him to see Toy Story on Ice! More on that later. We had a great time at the fair before the show though. Noah especially loved all of the farm equipment and the horses. We made the mistake of walking in by the livestock barns and we couldn't get Noah away from them! He also spotting a trash truck picking up some garbage behind the barns and that was pretty much the highlight of the day for him. The kid loves his trash trucks!
I have a lot of pictures on this one so I'll try to be brief...
We hung out by the water while Matt got us some food and it was all I could do to keep Noah from jumping into it. He's mad at me in this picture because I made him stop splashing long enough to snap one.
Next, we visited the Ag barn where they have all of the animals set up for the kids to look at. We did the little farm exhibit they have where kids can plant stuff, pick fruit and veggies, and gather eggs, but all Noah wanted to do was yell at the fake snake sitting on the hay...
Then we found these cute little tractors they could ride (for free!) so Matt and Noah tried it out. Noah loved the tractor but wasn't so fond of pedaling it. Matt had to push him around the entire thing but he still had fun! We had to find a ride for him because he was really into all of the big kid rides but he wasn't tall enough to go on any of them yet. He kept calling the roller coaster a "choo-choo" and probably could have watched it all day.
And we finally made it to the big show! Noah was super excited to go because they had Buzz and Woody stuff EVERYWHERE! Of course he wanted it all and kept running from booth to booth and ended up with a big box of popcorn which he was very happy with. However, once we got into the arena he was ready to go. I should mention here that he had just attempted to go to the movies to see The Lion King with Grandma and it didn't go so well. He couldn't handle the loud movie theatre and had a total melt down so they had to leave right when it started. Fast forward a few days to the fair...once he saw the big room and noticed that it was a little loud he wanted no part of it. I pretty much bribed him with popcorn and pop to just stay for a little while. Thank goodness for Buzz and Woody though! Once they came out he was happy and ended up staying for most of the show. He got a little restless at the end so we left but I was proud of him for sticking it out and we ended up having a great time!
Jakob hanging out with the firetrucks! He wasn't too interested in it yet but that won't last long. He is doing great and is now lifting his head completely up while he is on his stomach and is trying to roll over but hasn't quite got that down yet. He is talking up a storm and coos constantly. His very favorite thing to do though is smile and laugh at mommy, daddy, and Noah. He is still the sweetest baby in the world! We love our little Jakey-poo!
