hello again. luke here. :)
ben has a book that starts with that line. it's a pretty cheesy book mom picked up from the dollar section at target almost two years ago. ben loves it. we read it a lot. ben especially loved it last year when we went to the county fair in austin (which was really the austin rodeo, whoops) and he especially, especially loved it this year when we went to the real life county fair here in montgomery county, texas!! i liked it a lot too, and momma took a lot of pictures, so i thought i'd share. the pictures actually tell a great story about a day in the life of we matthys four, when we're out on adventure. it starts off with me upholding my title as cutest and most wonderful baby ever. looking happy and content in my stroller...
now that i'm getting older, i'm more aware of when i'm missing out on some fun that ben is having without me. and i'm starting to let on that i'm not exactly thrilled about it, but i usually don't throw a fit or anything (yet)...
i even missed out on momma and ben riding a neat airplane way up in the air...
we walked around the barns and saw the kids with their show animals. ben was mesmerized by someone shearing their sheep...
i happily watched on from my stroller...
and ben and momma got to go inside a petting zoo to see goats, chickens, a donkey, and a llama...
i'm not sure if you can tell from this picture or not, but i was not pleased (majorly started crying, in fact!)...
later on we tried some cotton candy, which ben and i had never had before. needless to say, if you know anything about ben, he enjoyed it quite a bit...
momma let him go to town, and he could tell this was a special occassion. he kept looking back at her to make sure she really knew what she was doing to let him eat all that!!
i couldn't believe it...
i got to try some too!
i was not so sure what to think at first...
and then even decided that i didn't like it at all! (i still have an aversion to some textures of foods, and this was one food that it didn't matter what the taste was like, i was not about to get over the texture of that stuff in my mouth - blegck!!)...
still later, he got to ride in the engine of a fun little train! he absolutely loved this...
by this time, my patience had worn out. i may still be the cutest and most wonderful baby ever, but there comes a time when enough is enough. and this was it...
overall, just like the books says, "we had a great time at the fair today." this was yet another great experience in our new hometown and we enjoyed our day together. and while it may look like i spend most of my life in a stroller (or momma's sling) watching on as ben checks out the world and has his fun, that really is hardly the case, in all honesty. i've really been getting into everything lately and love exploring and discovering whatever i can find.
