Joe took Wednesday off and we took Ben to his first
Circus Flora. It was awesome. Ben got a little squirmy at times, but overall he seemed to really enjoy himself. We had great seats in the third row and it was so fun to see everything so well. Ben loved the puppies the most and hated the loud cracking whip during the horse act (not ON the horses - no worries). My hands were sweating during the high-wire act -- GULP!!
We had lunch at the Boathouse and saw lots of ducks and a turtle swimming in the water. L & J we saw the most amazing bird - black with dark orange & yellow wings - so pretty! THEN we had ice cream near the train station (pic above from after the ice cream - hard to see but he was covered in vanilla goodness).
Joe and I were exhausted after our day... but Ben's classic question (as usual) was "What are we doing next?" I mean, seriously, what MORE could we have done in one day?!
Ben felt very proud holding baby Maggie for the first time last night. Auntie and I kept asking him if he was done or if he wanted to keep holding her... he kept saying "I'm not done." He was very sweet and gentle with her and she seemed perfectly content. What sweet cousins!!
