This weekend we took John and the girls to a church picnic that had a bunch of carnival rides and games. Our first stop was the carosuel. First he wanted to ride an elephant, then it switched to a giraffe, then he setteled on a rabbit. Mike said during the middle of the ride John was wanting to ride in the middle where the workers stand! After the carosuel he rode the spinning teacups. He liked them pretty well as long as he wasn't spinning too fast. Then he wanted to get on the kiddie roller coaster. This one parents couldn't ride on, kids only. I was a little worried but John was set on riding this thing. I got him strapped in as tight as I could and off he went. He was ok with it for the first round or two, then he freaked out! He was holding on for dear life and screaming and crying. I felt terrible, but the worker wouldn't stop it to let him off. As soon as the ride was over he came ove for a big hug and told me "No That! pointing to the ride. That was our last ride of the day! :) He did play a bunch of games though, and we are now the proud owners of a ton of new, cheap, flourescent stuffed animals. Just what we need! He also got a "tattoo" of a dinosaur on his arm and a orange hair spray mowhawk.
The girls had their 2 month check up today. Everything looks wonderful. They are both 22.75 inches long. Natalie weighs 12 lbs (81%) and chunker Rebecca weighs in at 14 lbs 4 oz (>97%). Rebecca's head is also a full inch bigger in diameter than Natalie's. As my mom said, that probably why I can't get matching hats to fit both of them! :)
Here are some pictures from the carnival and of the girls.
