Belmo!
We went to see Elmo and a Sesame Street Live show on Friday night. It was what Ethan wanted for his birthday. Amelia just loved it and Daphne liked it a lot. Elmo and friends sing a lot about healthy snacks, unlike the snow cones and cotton candy they sell at the show.
Daphne had a few pulls of cotton candy and was done. Amelia finished her whole snow cone, dancing and snow
coning through the second half. Here is one of her great moves:
She really went to town dancing. I suppose it was sugar-fueled.
Daphne got 2 character (maybe Prairie Dawn? and a non-Elmo monster) high 5′s and Amelia got one (Bert). Turns out Amelia’s favorite character is The Count. She announced that on the way home. After the first half, and an intermission, Daphne waved and said “Bye bye Belmo” for most of the second half. A very pleasant way to say “I’m tired, take me home to bed.” She was hyper in her car seat for maybe two minutes, and then conked out, asleep.
We all had a great time.
