Sesame Street LIVE!!!

Here are the boys arriving at the theater. They love each other so much. The moment they see each other they have to give hugs. Then they spent the rest of the outdoor waiting time walking around holding hands. A-DOOR-ABLE!

Love these kids and mommies...missing in this photo Andy and Zoey, love them too!

I made several attempts at getting one or more kids to stand with this Elmo. Fail. It never happened. Oh well.

There is Andy and Zoey...yay...waiting for the show to start...thank goodness for snacks to share!

Waiting...

Let the excitement begin. Scott was, in a word, mesmerized. He could not look away. He held my hands so tightly the whole time, almost to say, "mom are you seeing this" or to make sure it was real and he wasn't dreaming. He pointed several times and definitely danced along to all of the singing/dancing parts.

Just wanted a quick picture with my little - there was no way he could tear his eyes away from the show - he was so so into it.

Ryker had a great time too. This is one of the only pictures I got of him that he didn't cover his face. Must be going through a "I'm-a-celebrity-no-pictures-please" phase.

At one point Parker J. had to climb on my lap too. I think the boys needed to experience the show together. They held hands and gave each other bites of their snacks and sips of the sippy.

The fantastic 5... (the theme was Elmo's healthy heroes, they talked about eating healthy and exercising, brushing your teeth, washing your hands and getting enough sleep...very cute and I was on board with everything except the drinking enough milk part...but I won't even go down that road right now!)

Intermission. That's how long the show was, there was a 15 minute intermission. Thankfully there was a water fountain to watch and more snacks to be had.

The finale...

From beginning to end this was Scott's face:

I think the show was an hour and a half total. I am thoroughly impressed that all the kiddos sat through the whole thing. Scott enjoyed the show so much - I can't wait to take him again someday.

Afterwards we ate a picnic that we had packed to the park next door.

ZoZo says: "whatcha got Parker J.?"

After we finished our coffee bean drinks we put the boys smoothies into the cups (because why on earth would you drink it from a sippy if you can have a cool, grown up coffee cup with a straw...duh mom!)

It was a hit! Now Scott is taking the nap of a lifetime, Brian is putting the bed liner in his blazer and we are all looking forward to a long weekend together!
