Dax was of corse the fastest crawler 6-9 months. It was so funny! All the babies (I think there were about 6 of them) lined up ready to crawl. They said ready, set, go and all the babies just sat there looking around.. like what am I doing here?!? After about 2 min. I got Dax's attention and he was off crawling, but half way across the stage he stopped. Some of the other babies started crawling toward him and then he hurried and finished all the way to mom!! Yea, good job buddy!! I knew he would win this one... he is a little speed demon at our house. I can't keep him in one spot, he is everywhere, and really fast!
They had some really cute prizes too! He got a little basketball hoop toy. I think Laynee and Tim are enjoying it more than he is!! The girl by me is Angie Neubuger. Her little boy won the "So you think you can dance" portion... he was really cute.
The Diaper Derby was hilarious!! I have it on video (I wish I could post it!!) So I had Landon do this one, so he could redeem himself from the last time! Well he definately did NOT get the job done!! He was 4th out of 4!! But I won't blame him, we are blaming the diapers for being so hard to get open!! The guy that won, his poor baby was traumatized!! She was screaming so hard!! But it was really fun to watch all the dad's try to be so fast!! I definately give Landon props for even going on stage to try!!!The rest of fair days was really fun too. We spent all day thursday at the Carnival, our kids were wiped out. I think they slept till 10 the next morning! My brother's showed their pigs, so we went over and watched for a little while! Can I just say I don't know how other mom's do it. It is so hard keeping track of 3 kids! Every time I decide to take my kids "out" by myself I feel so frazzled trying to keep my eyes on all of them!!
Saturday night we were in the parade with the Fit Stop Crew! I think by the time I got home that night we ended up walking/running about 5 miles!! After the parade we went to the rodeo, which was tons of fun. Tim did the stick horse race! He claims he won it!! But with 100 little kids it was really hard to tell who won! Laynee slept right through it all. She slept for most of the rodeo! Then they had fireworks... they were amazing! We had a really fun week. - Thanks to my family who helped me so much with my kiddo's!!

That looks like so much fun! I don't venture out much like you do! Brian did take all three boys to the rodeo by himself and he only left them alone for a bit!!!! He also entered them into the stick horse race, I wish I could have seen them, but I know they would not have done as well with me there. Daddy seems to bring out the "big" boys in them.
Dax is a fast crawler! Even if the other kids would have crawled I still think he would have won!
That sounds like such a fun baby contest. Here in Lehi they just do 1st,2nd,3rd place for the cutest babies. I like all of those other things they do. I love Heber Fair Days - I miss them! They were so fun growing up, I used to save my money all summer for the carnival and the booths. I remember buying dissapearing ink and silly string, and getting in fights with all the boys. I hear ya on keeping track of 3 kids, it's hard work, especially once your baby becomes mobile. It was much easier when Kendra just sat in a carseat.
I really need to get involved with fair days. Maybe next year my kids will be into it too. I always wanted to enter one of my kids in a speed contest-- like Dax they're always on the move and fast too!
Love that he won! Wish I would have been there to see it.
