Elmo Grows Up

Ryan got us tickets to see When Elmo Grows Up in Long Beach but it was way too close to my due date that I told him to take Alex & Alexis since she just loves Elmo too! Well, Alexis ended up getting sick so we couldn't let the tickets go to waste. I was feeling pretty good with the new baby so the whole family went to see Elmo together! It was lots of fun and I'm really glad I ended up going since I was kind of bummed that I might be missing a family excursion.
Here are my girls in their Elmo shirts before heading on the road.
Makayla is checking out her program and that's Mylee in our new pink & brown peanut shell sling. It is the best sling ever! Super easy to get her in and all snugly. She slept the entire show and I was also pretty comfy too.
Thanks Daddy for taking me to see Elmo! I loved it and had so much fun!
Makayla and Elmo, she took a picture in the same spot but was much younger when she saw him last year.
During intermission they brought out Elmo balloons. Of course every kid was going to want one. Can you see behind Makayla the sea of Elmos? I can't believe they were $8 each!
Here's a glimpse of most of the Sesame Street characters during the show. It was pretty entertaining with lots of music & dancing. Makayla had a blast!
