How to Eat with Your Eyes Closed: Lessons in Sleeping Through Life

So, this is what happens when you wake up at 4:45 am and have a very busy morning at the park and then the lake. Classic.

Down on the Farm

Last weekend, we visited Springfest at the beautiful Wolfe's Neck Farm down near Freeport. It was a gorgeous, sunny summer day and the event was perfectly designed for an animal-loving, tractor obsessed toddler. We took a hayride around the adjoining campground (Micah was sincerely disappointed when we told him that someone other than himself would be driving the tractor that was pulling us). We listened to silly kid tunes under the tent and drank delicious berry and kale smoothies. We petted every farm animal imaginable and even fed a few. And we finished off the adventure with wood-fired pizzas and a peaceful, air-conditioned ride back up to Hallowell.

Peter Rabbit is in frequent rotation right now so Micah was very excited to visit Mr. McGregor's garden.

These sheep were well-fed after Micah's visit. 

The chickens were definitely the highlight.
I have scarcely seen Micah so excited: "Chicken up there!! Chicken over there!!! Chicken way up high!!"

Yeah, yeah, Mom...just give me the keys already.

Beat the heat!

Who says you can't enjoy a humid 90 degree day or two? Oh, the joys of summer!
