Trip to the Farm!

Mary Beth was our awesome daycare provider when Jack was a baby (from 6 months-18 months). We still miss her (she only takes babies up to 18 months) and she got together a group of us at the farm on Saturday for a bit of a reunion. It turned out perfectly--Jack and Dylan were in the daycare together (Dylan is about 2 months older than Jack) and it was so fun to get them together again. We went on a hayride pulled by a tractor which Jack absolutely loved, then Dylan went on a pony ride. I was convinced that if Jack wouldn't even sit on the tractor seat, he wouldn't sit on a pony. But of course once he saw Dylan on his pony, Jack decided he wanted to ride also. So we gave it a try and sure enough, when we went to put him on the pony, he didn't want to. I finally realized that he had seen Dylan's mom and dad leading the reigns for Dylan and he thought that I wasn't going with him (since someone from the staff was still holding the reigns for him to sit on the pony.) I convinced him that I'd be leading the pony and then he did great! We took 3 loops around. Jack told me to slow down. ;) But it was so fun seeing my BIG boy riding a pony! It was such a beautiful day--including amazing weather.
