Go, Diego, Go!....LIVE!

On Sunday afternoon, Stephen and I did the "fun parent" thing and took Paige to see Go, Diego, Go! Live. Paige had been talking about it ever since we told her we were going and she was beside herself with excitement. The downside was the poor child was running on about 45 minutes of naptime sleep and was a tad on the cranky side. We knew once the show started we would be fine, but the 30 minutes we had to waste before they let us in the theater was challenging, to say the least! Here's how we occupied our time:

This is the mood she arrived in...not so ladylike, if you will.

But thank goodness I brought the "activity bag"...coloring books, crayons, Barbies, singing books, etc.

The crayons are still occupying her....not for long, though!

Daddy joined in on the Strawberry Shortcake coloring FUN!

Then he read the Singing Dora the Explorer book to Paige-what a good Daddy!

We thought things were going well, but the the meltdown ensued! Paige would not obey and I think I even threatened to leave without seeing Diego and Dora. She didn't know it was an empty threat and I would NOT leave without seeing the show we paid $30 a ticket for!

All I wanted was a nice picture of Paige and I before the show...this is what I got!

She calmed down once we found our seats and she got her Baby Jaguar mask...yogurt bites and popcorn helped as well! Sshhh...don't tell the ushers we were eating in the theater!

After we left the show-it was great, by the way-we took Paige to eat at Red Robin. It's a great atmosphere for kids and very low key.

This is our feeble attempt at a family self portrait. It took about 5 pictures to get one that Stephen didn't think he looked dumb in!

On a completely unrelated note, Paige has gone about 4 days (I've honestly lost count!) without having any potty accidents (poopies not included)! She's actually telling us when she needs to go to the bathroom now. WOO HOO! Her poopies are 90% in the potty, so we're almost there with those too.
