Paxton's 1st Circus

Paxton's first trip to the circus was amazing!  At first, we weren't sure if he'd sit still long enough to enjoy such a thing (at 27 months old, we're not sure how long something will keep his attention), but now that it's all said and done, we are thrilled that we decided to go. 

Before we went, we kept telling him that he was going to see elephants, horses, and lions.  He seemed excited and would say, "Lion, RAAWWWRR!!!"  Once we got there, we found our seats and the show started.  Once the first elephant came onto the stage, Paxton was sooo amazed.  He kept saying, "Elefunt, elefunt!!!"  Then, when the elephant left the stage, he was legitimately concerned, "Where elefunt go?"  We told him it'd be back, and he agreed, "Okay".  Sure enough, the elephant came back along with about 5 other ones.  He was just mesmerized.  Pax loved the lions too.  He kept saying, "Lion rooooaarrr!" while they were on stage.  And after each segment of the show, he would throw both arms up in the air and yell, "Yayyyyyy!!!!"  Such an awesome kid!

Seeing Paxton's enjoyment at the circus is just one of a million amazing moments of what being a parent is all about.  We couldn't take our eyes off of him the whole time, just waiting to see what his next reaction would be.  Cannot wait until the next time the circus is in town...we'll be up front and center!!!
