Parade & Festival

Let me first say that Addison did great at MDO yesterday after I left.  From now on I'm just going to give her a kiss & tell her I love her then leave.  That will be easier on everyone!  I was asking her a million questions: Did you have a good day?  Did you play with your friends?  Did you play outside?  Did you color?  Did you take a nap?  Did you eat your lunch?  Do you tell the teacher when you have to potty or does she ask you?  Then I threw a random question in there - Is anyone mean to you at MDO?  She said 'yes mommy'.  Then I asked - Did you see a clown today?  She said 'yes mommy'!  LOL  SHE DID NOT SEE A CLOWN AT MDO!  My point is - I can't believe anything she says!

This morning we went to the parade.  One advantage to living right in the middle of town is that everything is within walking distance!  We just walked up the street & watched the parade go by.  Afterwards we went to the festival.  I was so excited not to be pregnant this time & be able to ride some things with Addison.  I just knew she would love to get on the BIG slide.  Well, as we approached the BIG slide I noticed how FAST you slide down.  Hmmmm, do I really want to do this?  Luckily for me, Addison didn't want any part of the slide!  She didn't want to ride anything.  Even though all kiddie rides require you to be at least 36 inches (she's 35 inches) I think some would have been fine as long as I was riding with her.  She wouldn't even ride the carousel.  What child doesn't like the CAROUSEL?  On the bright side, look at all the money we are saving!
