Kid Day at the Farmer's Market

The farmer's market had their annual kid day! Here we are attempting a family portrait.


You took a liking to the hula hoops. You would swing the hula hoop back and forth. We're pretty sure that you thought you were the best hula hooper ever. Other parents tried to get their kid to hula hoop only to have them lose interest after a few minutes. You remained focused until we told you it was time to move on to something different.





We went inside a tent filled with butterflies. We watched this butterfly eat nectar off a pompom with it's proboscis. Since we read the "Very Hungry Caterpillar" everyday you really enjoyed seeing real butterflies.

You were very attentive and listened to the butterfly lady talk all about butterflies. We even got to wake up some butterflies that were sleeping in paper!

We wish the farmer's market was this much fun every week!

Dancing with Daddy

Dear Lily,
Last Thursday night we decided to throw you a curve ball and go out past your bed time. We went to a free outdoor concert in our very own Lansdowne. There was a wonderful singer/songwriter playing guitar. You are so tuned in to anything musical. You sat on my lap eating grapes and watching her sing. It was a nice relaxing evening. After about 45 minutes you started to get a little antsy so Daddy took you to the back and danced with you. You were really into it. I sneaked a little video.



Love,
Mommy
