State Fair

Steve and I decided to take London to the State Fair on Sunday. We hadn’t been in probably six years so we met up with Russ, and Heidi & Josh and had a great time. Well, we did so hopefully everyone else did as well. The weather wasn’t ideal to walking around outside all day…it was sooooo cold! But, we kept London warm with a jacket and lots of blankets. She got fussy a few times because she wanted to get out and walk around so we had to take a few breaks here and there.

She rode her first ride on the carousel. She seemed to like it. I think she was more fascinated with the lights at the top than she was anything else. The horse we picked out when really high so I was getting nervous I wouldn’t be able to hold on to her. After a few goes around she wanted off so we sat in one of the little sled seats and waited till it was over.

Her favorite part of the day was probably when her daddy fed her some funnel cake covered in powdered sugar and chocolate syrup. She couldn’t get enough of it! She actually got a little tude with him when he stopped feeding her.

After the fair we hung out at Heidi’s and ate some pizza...London included...she LOVES pizza crust. It was 7 by the time we left Raleigh and London was soooooo pooped that she passed out after a few ounces of her bottle in the car. The poor thing was trying to hold her bottle the whole time and it just kept slipping out of her hands when she would nod off. She woke up after about an hour, finished her bottle, then was out for the rest of the night!

This is what happens when daddy feeds her funnel cake.

Trying to take a picture, but London didn't want to cooperate.
