Whoa, what's that?

Did you catch that? It's Nolan's first sentence! At first I didn't think he knew what it meant, but he seems to say it when he sees something new and exciting, so I guess he does understand.

It's been a busy week. We've been to the Children's Museum (forgot the camera) with friends, hung out with cousins riding their little Jeep and getting sprayed with the hose, and we just got home from the Tooele County fair. Now, I'm no fair connoisseur (that might be an oxymoron), but who's the smartie that decided fairs should be held in the dead of summer? Not a thinker, that guy. All of us little mommies pushed our kids around until we thought we'd melt. Funny how the kids don't seem to care. There was a horse that kept trying to nibble Nolan's ear. It's the first I've seen him look nervous. And they had free hats to craft (Nolan climbed on the table and chewed on buttons while I busily glued the ribbon). I'm pretty sure Nolan was aware of the foul smell coming from the pig pens because he had an odd look on his face while watching them. What a day!

Lastly, Nolan's cousin Rocky came for a visit last night. It's too bad they live so far away; they'd be great buddies. And it was good to meet the newest cousin, Jack. As a sidenote, Nolan had fallen asleep mid-spaghetti slurp before they arrived. Rocky kept saying, "Nolan, wake up." They had a good jump on the neighbor's trampoline. ***As a side note, I don't like tramps (either kind). I don't want Nolan busting bones or teeth.
