Day 119 - April 28

Even though it was technically my birthday week (and weekend away in New Orleans), Saturday was pretty much about Michaela.

The long-awaited Fresh Beat Band concert was finally here and we couldn't WAIT to get her there! We told her about it on Friday night, but I'm not sure she really understood what we were getting at. She seemed excited to see the Fresh Beats, but I don't know if she knew how she'd be seeing them.

Of course, the concert was during nap time, so we were prepared for a possible melt-down due to that, but our really bad night on Friday night didn't factor into our plans. The kid fell asleep in the car on the 20 minute ride from the hotel to the venue, so we didn't really start off on the best foot. We were a little concerned when the show started and she seemed really unsure of what was going on.

We didn't need to worry!!!

About ten minutes in, she got up off her seat and started dancing (her favorite twirly cherries dress helped that cause along), and didn't stop until the show was over. And the second half was even better because Daddy braved the lines and got her the "light fing" she kept asking for (along with her first concert tee shirt!), and the light "fing" quickly turned into the world's best microphone.

The quality of this picture is terrible (I stupidly followed the rules on the arena website that said no cameras were allowed so I only had my phone), but I think the "microphone" hint will help you figure out what you're looking at! If I'm not mistaken, she was singing her favorite song, "Rock Star" at the time this picture was taken.
