This will be the last year that we attend the State Fair on our usual Columbus Day holiday. When it was just Chuck and I, it wasn't all that bad as most of what we wanted to see, hear and do was not occupied by 1000 of kids that were out of school for their fair day. But now that we have Holden, we'll have to rethink our Fair day. The lines for everything were awful, but we made the most of it non the less and had a really good day at the fair.
Holden had his first train ride experience, we decided to avoid the traffic and took the DCTA train this year. Holden LOVED the train, especially as we would arrive at each stop and the engineer would blow the train horn. This might be something we add to our annual Fair day.
Not only did Holden get to have his first train ride, but he also got his first pair of CowBoY bOoTs! I always thought it was cute when little boys would wear boots with anything and everything. Now of course, I'm the mom with the son that wants to wear his boots with everything. But he is just too cute NOT to let him do it.
Just FYI- he does have on his diaper |
And finally, Holden went to the dentist this past week and man, they didn't have dentist offices like this when I was a kid. They had a waiting room for kids, one especially for adults. Tons of games, books and toys to play with. Holden got to tour the office, see all the many tropical fish tanks and after his exam he got to pick a prize from the huge toy box! And above all, the staff was amazing and Holden has beautiful, healthy teeth.
I know this picture does not really support my post, this was taken after all the fun stuff when Mommy was trying to make him sit in the chair when he wanted to stand and slide down it. |
