Big Day

Boy, was yesterday was a very long day. We got up at 4am, flew to Spokane, met our awesome birthmother Jennifer, and flew home at 8pm last night. Lainey handled the chaos extremely well-making lots of new friends on the flight home, enjoying some not so good for you but boy do they taste good snacks, and coloring in her books. Boy did we get a nice tour of Spokane via the rental car while Lainey napped in the backseat! Anyone see the theme here yet? If not, check out the picture below. (For those that can't tell what we're looking at, this is a shot from below with his little legs on each side)

We went our for Chinese food for dinner and at the end the server brought 5 fortune cookies. We didn't realize there was an extra one until there was just one sitting on the plate. We realized it was the baby's (otherwise known as Beaux for now) and I melted when I read the fortune:

"You will bring sunshine into someone's life."

You already have little guy!

Animals!

On a recent visit with Grandma and Grandpa Reid we went to the Puyallup Fair. Lainey loved looking at all the animals and mooing when she saw cows, and saying bah bah when she saw sheep. She learned some new words that day: Goat, Sheep and Pig!



Checking out the sheep with Grandma





Playing with some sort of musical art with Grandpa.


Banging on stuff is a favorite activity for these two and they could do it all day but we heard there were two litters of baby pigs to be found!




Petting the bunnies was a big hit

Found the piglets! If only they stayed this small....
Just when I thought I'd seen it all, a goat walks right by me!
