Elmo Live & Elmo the couch

Yes, we have officially become huge Elmo fans at our house. Last weekend we took Reese to see Sesame Street Live. We were wondering how he would take to this new show but he sat still, absolutely amazed and watched the entire show!! It was worth the money, that's for sure! Since he was so good we bought him an Elmo "baooon" (balloon), I guess it was worth the $8 (yes, I said eight dollars) we paid for it. He is in love with Elmo and balloons these days so it makes for great toy/ punching bag. :)
































This weekend Reese and I went and got him his first couch and of course it is covered in Sesame Street characters. Me being the plain/ modern person I am wanted a couch Reese's size that would sit in our living room and he could pull it out to lay on and it be normal colors and "semi match". Nope, we got the redest (that's not even a word) couch with a huge "Mo" and "Biiiig" (elmo and big bird) on it and he is in love. That's really all that matters is that he is in love with it, not me. Gotta get over the cheesiness of the whole thing and just adore the fact that it's his and he likes it. I am going to post a video at the bottom of this to let you all see what his new "gross motor" skill is for the week. He has NEVER, I repeat NEVER climbed on the couch or chairs ever in his life. This couch/ pull out bed has brought on a whole new adventure for him and he's thoroughly enjoing every minute of it! Needless to say his couch won't be parked up next to our chairs ever again if I have anything to do with it...until he starts to climb on them all by himself.
