Yesterday Jack and I went with our friends, Mandy and Brett, to see Sesame Street Live: When Elmo Grows Up. We went to a different show last year and had a great time. So....I thought, "He's older now...it will be even more enjoyable". I was quite wrong. He was pretty good the first 45 minutes despite the fact that he was seated directly behind a very tall man. I tried to have him on my lap for a while but baby sister didn't seem to like that. So I finally switched seats with him. He did ok and even stood on his seat for a bit until intermission. For some reason at intermission, he decided it was time to go home. I left the theater to try to make him happy and decided it was a good time to use the restroom, too. Things went from bad to worse as the crowds filtered into the bathroom. So many people, so much noise!! Anyway I decided NOT to try to change the diaper figuring we only had another 30 minutes before it was over. When I tried to go back into the theater, he went CRAZY screaming and crying telling me "that way" and pointing to the exit! He also peed through his jeans and through my shirt since I was now holding my sweet, tantruming 2 year-old. It was a mess. But, all in all, the show was good and I did finally force him back into the theater for the last 10 minutes or so. Then we went to Wendy's for lunch and then headed home for naptime. Too bad he wouldn't actually nap.....I could've used the rest.
