I thought ahead and brought his highchair base to keep him strapped so he wouldn't jump over the railing of our section (you think I'm kidding?). He pitched a fit at first, but once he got used to the idea, he even reached over and held my hand and wanted kisses. When the lights dimmed and the show began, Aaron was completely thrown off. He had no idea what was going on, although we talked about it all morning. All he knew of Elmo was his "Elmo Show" via DVD player at the house. He was very serious throughout the show, even while he was clapping, head bobbing and attempting to snap during the music. He even gave shout outs "Yeah!" every now and then, but not once broke a smile. That's my boy! Needless to say, he had a great time.
Even Zoe enjoyed the show. She fell asleep for a couple minutes, then popped open her eyes and watched all the lights the rest of the time.
This picture was taken while we were waiting for the show to start. Aaron was still upset about being "trapped" in his highchair, and Zoe was eyeballing the snack in Aaron's hand, wanting it for her own.
More to come after Aaron's 2nd birthday this weekend...Elmo Party all the way!!!
