Purdue's Bug Bowl

 Purdue has Spring Fest and a Bug Bowl every year. We missed it last year, but heard from everyone how awesome it is. We went this year and the kids had a great time. They have chocolate covered bug and other foods with bugs in it. We wanted to try some, but never found the tent with them in it. We were too busy checking everything else out.

Everest petting a calf.
 Holding a duckling. You could choose a duckling, chick or turkey, he picked the duckling each time.
Leaf got to hold the duckling too.
 Leaf wanted to milk a cow...we waited in line, paid a dollar and when push came to shove, Leaf wanted nothing to do with milking a cow. Everest, who had refused to do it, when we got up there, he got brave and decided to try it.
We have been having ALL kinds of trouble with Leaf going to bed. He usually cries/screams, plays, talks to us or himself for 2-3 hours after we put him to bed. We have tried skipping nap and it only makes things worse. On the nights we skip naps, he is slap happy and too tired to fall asleep. This night he was mad so he threw every book off the bookshelf into the hallway.
Then fell asleep in Everest's bed.

  1. Oh Fay, I love that you share the trials of motherhood, because they are reality. I'm sorry but the books in the hall made me laugh. This phase will pass. :)
