Saturday was probably the best day of Sawyer's almost 2 year old life! His Aunt Barbara bought him tickets to see Sesame Street Life for his Christmas present and we went Saturday night to see Elmo and his friends. (Sawyer calls him Melmo, and he is totally obsessed with him!!!!) He was in awe when all the characters came out and he just sat and watched the whole first half, not really making any expressions, and not taking his eyes off the stage. Towards innermission he started dancing in his seat a little and realizing what was really going on. He seemed a little worried when they left the stage for a break and he anxiously awaited the show to start back up. He played with some kids and his new sesame street ball until the music started back again. He was very excited and sang and danced through the whole second half. He even cried when it was over because he loved it so much. I am pretty sure that Barb and I had as much fun as him, but I didn't watch a lot of the show. I mostly watched Sawyer and loved seeing him so excited. It was a blast! Thank you SO MUCH Barbara!!!!!
Before the show
Waiting patiently for the show to start back up again
This was his look through most of the show, he wouldn't take his eyes off the stage
Singing along
Here is his reaction to the first song, he kept pointing and say "Elmo" "Ernie" "Cookie" :)
Here is Sawyer dancing and marching along to the Parade song-We had amazing seats right below the stage, the characters came right up to Sawyer and he wasn't scared at all!
Here is the final song. Sawyer kept waving bye whenever Elmo was not on stage, like he wanted the other characters to leave and Elmo to come back. He was always asking for Elmo when he wasn't there. It was really cute. Then at the end when he realized bye meant the show was over he got really sad. Hopefully they will bring the show again so we can take Sawyer back! :)
