What a great time we had at the fair this morning! And, yes, we did get to see some goats, so we fit that into our G Day theme. I'm sure Mia will say her favorite part was getting to ride a Pony for the VERY FIRST TIME, and Laney will probably say that seeing the baby ducks was her favorite. Laney also kept telling us "I a Moo!" meaning that she was pretending to be a cow. :) How darling. I, of course, was nostalgic for my 'tween years when I participated in our local county fair with 4H in the cooking, crafts, and rabbit showmanship areas. I was really tempted to purchase one of the pet rabbits they had for sale this morning. Wouldn't Patrick be enchanted if he came home to a new pet he had no idea about?!?
Anyway, after the kids wake up from their naps/"quiet time" we will attempt to Grow some seeds. Well, we will plant them at the very least. The corn that Grandaddy got the girls for planting a few months ago is doing quite well, though so far no corn to eat. But the plants are tall and great fun to see!
Happy G Day! If you are following along, some interesting G things include: giraffes, goats, granola, growing, golf, gold, growl, grizzly bear, garlic, go, giggle, ganache, gyroscope, grasshopper, goldfish, gingerbread, grandparents, Germany, and gelato* (YUMMY!).

Mia Quote of the Day -
"Mommy! HELP! I dropped my tiara in the potty and I already pooped!" (Some days you just LOVE being a mom...)
Books we read today:
Grandma and Me, Goodnight Moon, Guess How Much I Love You
Her teacher is one of the "good ones", I've been assured by veteran parents we know, and she reported that she had a good time! Aside from that, we didn't get a lot of feedback from her in regards to what she did today, other than that she went to the "Sports Room" (aka Gym) for some games, and learned the word Peacock in Spanish. I'll be looking forward to Folder Wednesdays, where we get info and homework from the teacher.
