School Carnival

Despite the chilly, rainy weather (and a half sick husband) we decided to take the kids to the school carnival tonight. Steven was really excited to see his friends and teachers - he was such a different kid. I think the difference was that he was comfortable in this atmosphere whereas in other crowds he doesn't quite open up so quickly. He had a fun time playing the kiddie games (lollipop tree, bowling, cake wheel) but his favorite was the inflatable bouncer. Immediately when he saw it, he sat right down and threw off his shoes - he couldn't get in fast enough.

He was even so bold as to talk to the clowns - who, by the way, gave us enough tootsie rolls to be stocked up for Halloween. I really hate tootsie rolls.
