Elmo overload

Today was quite a fun day as we took Chloe to see Sesame Street Live-When Elmo Grows Up. We had great seats on a couple rows back from the stage and she was totally excited about the whole thing. For the first 5 minutes she just kept pointing and yelling Elmo like she wasn't sure that we noticed what was going on. Then she really got into it and was clapping and swaying with the music and squealing each time she saw another character. Cookie! Zoe! Abby! Oscar! Yup, she knows and loves them all. We also ran into three women that Craig and I worked with who were all there with their kids. It was clearly 'the' place to be on a Sunday afternoon, evidently, if you are the toddler set.

After the show, Chloe was exhausted and totally crashed for her nap. In fact we had to wake her up so she didn't sleep too late and she was ready for sleep when bedtime came around. It was totally worth the price of admission and Craig and I spent most of the show watching her have such an awesome time. There were a couple of times when I had to hold back tears because I was just so filled with love and happiness for my little girl. Ok, maybe that is preggo hormones, but I mean, it just makes me so happy to do something that I know my little girl will be talking about for quite a while and was clearly so thrilled about.

I have a couple pictures from Easter that I finally downloaded, so I thought I would share.

One of the few shots I have where she was still!

I'm glad Chloe had such a great time at the show. Brody would have loved that as well.
It's not just preggo hormones...I cry all the time by just watching Brody exploring in the back yard. I'm such a sapp!
Love the pictures..she's such a little cutie pie!

I wish i could take my little girl to see Elmo live. Alas the closest show is 4 hours away. I live 45 minutes from Atlanta and am shocked they aren't coming through town. anyway, I am totally jelous that you got to take Chloe. I would prolly cry from the joy of seeing her happy. Only, I am not prego, so I have no excuse. :)
