We think he enjoyed the cat show, but he insisted on being carried the entire time. He would not cooperate when we tried to take his photo at the cat show, so we haven't a decent photo of him next to a cat (to prove he was there), but we did get a great artsy shot.
There were some beautiful cats at the show. Ever seen a toyger or a Norwegian forest cat?
Mark requested a business card from the Egyptian mau owner. Bentley immediately confiscated the card from Mark. (It was a very nice business card in color with a photo of an Egyptian mau on it.) His mom said he took the card to bed with him last night and sure enough I saw it in the crib when I put him down for his nap this afternoon. (No, I did not try to reclaim it. I know not to mess with a cranky toddler.)
The model train show was definitely a hit with him. He was riveted by the larger model trains and wanted to touch them, but that was not allowed.
Did you notice all the little boy heads in the photo above? There are five small male heads--and this was just a random shot. Unfortunately the train wasn't going by Bentley when Mark took the shot. I had to move Bentley along since he was standing on a small stool that he outraced a younger boy to claim. (I think maybe the younger boy was waiting his turn to use the stool, but I didn't notice him until after Bentley had climbed on the stool. What is the etiquette in a situation like this?)
When it was time to leave the train show Bentley had a short screaming fit. Hmm, that seems to be happening more often lately. Is it our lax grandparenting or just the trials of being two? After all, why are the adults always in charge of arrival and departure times?
