Did you know Triplets Qualify for Handicap Parking?

They do at the County Fair.

Yesterday evening we drove the kids to the Fair. After we had already parked, a man came up to us while we were getting out of the vehicle and said since we had triplets we could park closer to the gate near the handicap area. He had seen our stroller on the back of my vehicle and assumed we had lots of kids or someone who couldn't walk well. So, we took advantage of this and pulled out of our space and headed to the gate. How cool was that?

Tony and I decided we should have been paid as an attraction at the fair. We couldn't even get the kids loaded onto our triple stroller without all sorts of comments. People stopped and stared at our virtual triplets being hauled around in our Runabout stroller. I even had a newspaper photographer come up and take our picture.

I have to say taking them out in a crowded area was torturous at first but then the crowds died down and a ride operator gave us some free ride tickets and the babies stopped whining and we could actually enjoy a litle of the end of the fair. Strollers were not allowed around the animals. We did take it in to see the horses but a young teenager stopped us when we tried to get in to see the sheep. He told us we could take the kids out and bring them in. Yeah, right! I wasn't dare taking three one-year olds out to run around the animal shed.

All three babies tasted cotton candy for the first time. They LOVED it! Once they saw a man holding a bag and they went nuts trying to get to his bag. He had to walk off and apologized for standing so close with his cotton candy. I bought popcorn to shut them up.

This trip to the fair has us rethinking our Disney Trip. We need a Nanny for the Trip.
