Fair

Ever since seeing a fair in an episode of Max and Ruby, Abby has been asking to go to a real fair.  So we finally got to the Marshfield Fair last week with Jencie, Gary and Juliet.

A week later, I asked Abby and Lily what we saw:
Abby: We went on the cars! (a kiddie ride)
Lily: cars, too. ummm... cows, cow pee, I peed too, and....  (It was actually horse pee.)
Abby: Did she tell you rabbits?
Lily: Rabbits
Abby: Train things.  (Model train set)
Lily: And we jumped (bouncey house) and I fell down.
Abby: Juliet. We saw a ferris wheel. We saw ice cream. I saw an ice cream truck. Oh. We saw a wiggly ride for teenagers.
Lily: That's it.
Abby: I think that's it.

Help from Big Sister

Abby tries to teach Lily everything she knows.  Here she is being very helpful and reading to Lily while Lily sits on the potty chair.








2 year old's thoughts

Lily seems to be exceptionally verbal for her age.  As a result we get insights into her thoughts at an age we didn't know what Abby was thinking.   Today before nap time she told me (or maybe just mused out loud) "When I get a little bigger, I'll fly into the sky."
