4-H Fair

The St. Clair County 4-H and Youth Fair has been a tradition in my family since I was 9 years old. This year was Breck's first out what we hope is many fairs. He was a very good boy and seemed to really enjoy the animals. He is not afraid of them at all (good or bad? I'm not sure).

Meeting a friendly pig. Breck stuck his finger right up the pig's snout.


Even though he has been in the convertible car seat since May, it was easier to put him back in this one to put him in his Grampy's truck and even to ride on the golf cart late in the day. This photo is when we got home after an afternoon at the fair. Tired baby boy!

Lindsey's family has several bounce houses and a climbing wall that they take to the fair. We were excited to hang with Lindsey (since we are 1.5 hours away we just don't see her enough!!). Breck loved crawling on the mats that the bounce house sits on. I can't wait to see if he plays on them next year!!

Sewing Projects

I made Breck's bedding for his crib, since I was not able to find anything both Nate and I loved. My sister-in-law asked me to make her youngest, Caleb's bedding as well. She and her boys, Andrew and Ethan, picked out the fabric long before Caleb was born. I was much slower with the sewing...but with the impending move on the horizon, I pushed through and was able to finish it. She was very happy with it, and I was glad to be able to do it for her.
