Circus

A few weeks ago someone stopped by the church and gave Ryan free tickets to the circus that was coming. We were super excited to take Hailey. I thought she would love it! We asked another family from church to go with us. They have a little boy who is just a few months older than Hailey.

At first Hailey was super excited. She wanted to run around and take everything in outside. There were clowns, elephant rides, balloons and lots of food. She kept asking to go inside the tent and see the tigers so finally we went in. As soon as the show started this is what Hailey did

Like her many necklaces and bracelets she insisted on wearing?!

 She sat like that the.whole.time! It was crazy. Several times, she covered up her eyes and watched through her fingers. Silly girl! She took it all in because she hasn't stopped talking about it since. She kept saying "too scary".
At intermission she got to ride a pony and see the elephants again.

Then when the show started back, she assumed the above position once again. Until the last circus person left the floor that is how she sat.
She was super tired when we left, but still managed to eat dinner at Chick-Fil-A and play in the play area with Landon. She actually followed him up and slid down the slide for the first time too!

Today Hailey saw a moped on our street and asked what it was. I told her it was like a motorcycle and she immediately said "like at circus. Drive around and around." (in the big ball). Then she kept saying "People at circus say bye bye" and waved her hand like a beauty queen. She was demonstrating how they all waved when they ended.

Even though my silly girl didn't look like she was watching, she knew everything that happened. She amazes me everyday.
