Elmo.

Suddenly, about a month ago, "Elmo" was added to Poppy's little vocabulary. Anytime she sees anything red and potentially furry, she says in the sweetest little voice, "Elmo!". So when we found out that Sesame Street Live was coming to town, of course we had to get tickets. Neither of us knew what to expect - this was Poppy's first time in a theatre where it would be dark with flashy lights and loud music. But the concession stand was open and they were selling popcorn - Poppy's most favorite food in the entire world - so I knew it was going to be alright.



This is was she did anytime Elmo was on the stage (which was most of the show).



And this is what she did when she couldn't see Elmo. And that was the world's saltiest popcorn, and it was 10:30 in the morning. (and during intermission she attempted to steal her cousin's box of popcorn as well) (and yes, her entire box was empty by the end of the show)



Leaving the fancy theatre...

She had a great time and totally surprised us by not being afraid of the darkness and loud music. And then of course on the way out, the usher's were handing out flyers for Dora the Explorer Live...
