Saturday we had a family day out! We took Aspen to see Sesame Street Live: Elmo Makes Music! She LOVES Mel-mo (Elmo) so we knew she would absolutely love it.
They have a "play-zone" set up an hour before the show with all the character stoops from Sesame Street and they come and sing a few songs with some of the characters. We got lucky and were standing close by when they came out one time and we got to be right up front. This was after Aspen high-fived Cookie Monster! I was so surprised she did it b/c normally she is scared of any characters in costume up close. She enjoyed that but I think if we ever go back we will avoid the Play-Zone b/c it was just too many people!
Getting ready to go find our seats!
Aspen did amazing at sitting still (a few graham crackers may have helped that too) and she was so excited to see Elmo!
No joke, this is how she was during the whole show, minus when she was saying "yay" and clapping after every song or pointing out Elmo to me. Could not take her eyes off of it! We had to buy her own ticket for her so we basically had an extra seat since she sat on my lap the whole time. She didn't weigh enough to hold the seat down and it kept folding up on her before the show started. We got really lucky and had great seats along with no one sitting right in front of her!
Intermission!
Poor girl fought her sleep so hard and ended up falling asleep during the last song of the show. Little stinker!
Here's one of the videos I caught of one of the cute songs they did.
After the show Joe took us out to lunch at one of his favorite spots to go to lunch with co-workers (He works downtown). It was A-MAZING and now I know why he's always talking about it!
