Last night we braved the wilds of Pennsylvania roadways, cutting a path to Reading so we could catch a Wiggles show. My mom emailed to ask if Henry enjoyed it. I thought I would post my reply since it sums everything up:
he had such a good time! he got to eat lots of french fries and chicken strips from the concession stand which he loved, except i just changed his diaper and wow, he can't be feeling that great although he's in a good mood so what do i know. i think he was a bit stupefied by the whole experience, but when they played one of his favorite songs during their opening medley, he started to figure out what was going on. he sat on my lap the whole time and just stared and stared. lately he's been making us sing twinkle twinkle little star, often, and last night they sang it with all the lights turned down and a disco ball spinning around. they also had parents hold up cell phones so it looked like there were lots of little stars in the audience. it was great. henry loved that bit. it was a lot of fun. a grandma who was seated behind us stopped us on the way out to comment on how well-behaved henry was throughout the show. i mentioned i thought it was mostly due to shock. her grandkid was about henry's age and was all over the place, physically and emotionally, going from happy to crying at the drop of a hat. it was how i imagined henry would be at the show because he's pretty young to be sitting in one spot for an hour and a half, but he did. i can't believe i'm going to say this but it was a relaxing evening. also, anthony is even cuter in real life. so's the pirate. i bought a feathersword for henry, but let's be honest, i really bought it for myself. rowr.
