The Harper on the bus...

Giggles a lot, apparently busses are the funniest. You see, I have been trying to get to Pikes for about 2 months to get Beckett a piggy bank for his bday, and since its tomorrow, we decided we should go this weekend. Since Sawyer and I were sick yesterday, Ryan and I thought it would be fun if I took Harper on a date today, Ryan stayed home with Sawyer and watched all the pre-game football stuff, he is watching the game now, you can cut the tension with a knife in this house. Any who, Harper, Mickey and I grabbed a bus and headed downtown.  She seemed a little overwhelmed, I think her favorite part was the escalators going into the bus tunnel.  Harper did learn some good city lessons...

1.  Don't listen to the crazies... they don't make any sense, also don't give them any money, also don't stop and wave when they try to tell Harper how cute she is.
2.  Those birds everywhere are called pigeons, they go ccccrrrrruuuuu (you try typing the sound a pigeon makes)
3.  Sometimes you have to wait a long time for the right bus, also probably 6 buses will come and go in that time.
4.  Mommy can't go to Pikes without stopping at MeeSum for Pineapple bread  (usually also Mr. Ds for a gyro, but those are messy and we were in a hurry)
5.  Walk around tourists, they take too long
6.  The best fruit stand is inside Pikes, not the ones on the outside, they are still good, but the one down the middle on the left is the best.

She was pretty excited while we were waiting for the bus, Mickey was a little nervous about his first bus ride.


We sang "The Wheels on the Bus" I think the dude behind us enjoyed it. 


Pretty much she was done with getting her picture taken already







Enjoying some Chicken Humbow


There was a pigeon stalking Harper while she was eating (pretty much the bird form of Griz), this is not that pigeon, I didn't take its picture because I was trying to be ready to defend my child in case the pigeon decided to attack, they scare me a bit.

Obviously you can't go downtown without giving some money to one of the many street musicians


We found the pigs!!!

We considered getting some dried flowers to bring home, but then figured Sawyer would just eat them.


She wasn't so sure about the crabs I made her stand by, at least it wasn't fish.


She really liked the pig, you can't tell in this picture, but I'm pretty sure she wanted to bring it home, but it wouldn't fit on the bus.


And doing some more eating while we waited for the bus home.
