We went to the fair with Joe, Shannon and Matthew last Thursday. Jehan seems to be a thrill seeker. Firdosh and Joe took the babies on the magic carpet ride and it didn't faze Jehan one bit. Poor Matthew wasn't as lucky. He screamed on the way down and cried once they got to the bottom and tried to run away (see third picture). Jehan loved the horses, sheep, goats, pigeons and rabbits but the pigs and cows didn't really do anything for him. I love seeing him think. He was totally putting the animals and their noises with our animal pictures at home. Since Thursday he's started to get animal noises right when we ask him what animals say. Everything used to say "nay" but now kitties say "ow" and cows say "moo" and he looks at you like you're crazy if he doesn't know.

What is it with boys and dirt? (or anything resembling dirt)

Not quite as thrilling as the magic carpet but still pretty good. He goes down all by himself now.

I love these pictures. Pretty soon we'll have to get him one too.

And I am so impressed with myself for posting today. We're all sick and my head hurts!
