Fun Stuff with Harper

A few weeks ago we went to my (new) company's annual picnic. It was blazing hot unfortunately, but we managed to stick around for a while before calling it a day. The best part of the day, according to Harper, was the petting zoo. She was a little timid around some of the animals, and didn't want any of them eating out of her hand, though Daddy was trying to show her how it was done:


She loved how soft the bunnies were:


There were tons of animals, as you can see. Harper mostly liked looking at the little goats and pigs. In fact, she got so involved in only looking at the smaller animals that she was caught totally off-guard when a donkey walked right up to her. She looked up, and it startled her so much, she fell backwards and didn't want to go near it again.

One of the little goats tried to eat her dress! Thank goodness Daddy was right there to save it.





I was folding laundry, and as Harper loves to do, she was helping me "fluff" each item of clothing. For some reason, she took one of Daddy's pair of athletic shorts and put it around her shoulders. It gave me a good giggle, and I had to snap a picture of her "cape".



Last weekend we were all healthy enough to get out and about. Saturday we went to KellerFest and had a good time seeing friends and going on rides. It was absolutely boiling out there though, and Mommy forgot the camera. boo! She went on her first Ferris Wheel ride and seemed to enjoy it more as the ride went on and she could wave at Mommy.
Sunday we blew up an inflatable pool for her to play in. She jumped right in even though the water was fairly chilly since it was straight from the hose. She absolutely loved every moment of it, and we'll be keeping the pool ready to go all summer long for what I'm sure will be hours of entertainment.
