Sherrod loved seeing the animals. We walked around all of the cows and he said "moo" probably a million times. We also fed some goats, which he called dogs. That was probably the highlight of the fair for him.
Sherrod's cousin, Drake, was running around like a wild child wanting to ride all of the rides multiple times. Drake's little sister, Landry, was a little bit sketchy about all of it so she did the rides that Sherrod did.
First, Sherrod and I went down the big yellow slide. I hiked all the way up the steps with all 26 pounds of him in one arm and the rug for the slide in the other. He rode down the slide in my lap, and Russell said his expression never changed. Lots of stairs...very little excitement!!!
After all of the excitement on the big yellow slide, Landry wanted me to take her on the "ponies." Sherrod, Landry and I rode the carousel together. Still, no change in expression for Sherrod. Landry, however, loved it!
Sherrod's blank face again...
Sherrod rode the last ride, the elephants, with his daddy. Drake and Landry wanted to ride too, so they hopped in one of the elephants and Russell and Sherrod got in another one. By this time, it was dark and Sherrod was exhausted! He didn't know whether to go to sleep while riding or cry. So, his head bobbed and every now and then when they came around you would catch him fussing. Poor little guy!
After the elephant ride, we came straight home. Sherrod got a quick, but much needed bath and then he went right to bed. We were all so sleepy!

He is so cute! Looks like you all had a great time! Look forward to seeing you again soon and hopefully getting the little ones together!
OMG Allison!! He is your twin!! He looks just like you in the carousel pic. He is so cute!! Will will be 14 months tomorrow...we should get the boys together sometime. You've got a big boy on your hands too! Will weighed 27 lbs at 13 months (4wks ago) It gets exhausting at times lugging him around!! Take care!
