Stinkyfeet

Our local public library always has lots of great kids entertainment programs during the summer. My kids always want to participate :-)

They have read their 20 hours, either on their own or with me reading to them and have earned lots of free food treats and last night they got to pick out books. Sera got one about Pandas, Andy got a Junie B Jones and Aubri got something I can't remember... but then that's not too shocking since she actually looks though the books and makes her own choices without my having to redirect her to something more at her level :-)

Mr. Stinkyfeet, Jim Cosgrove, put on 3 shows yesterday and we caught the evening show. His music is very catchy, he is a great entertainer, and the kids just love him. I especially like him, because the summer Andy first saw him, he thought all librarians were called Mr. Stinky feet, since the children's librarian is also a man and he also plays the guitar and sings with the kids. When Andy first sarted school, it took him several months to figure out that our public librarian was not Mrs. Stinkyfeet! He shocked her several times by calling her that!

I love free quality entertainment for all!!! That said, here is a video of Andy and Sera dancing in Mr Stinkyfeet's band for you to enjoy :-) * If Andy looks a bit sad at times, it is because he is feeling bad that Aubri did not also get to go up with them. They may squabble, but they do love each other fiercely!! Seeing him look sad for this reason actually makes me smile. Oh, and the cows chewing their cud imitations were definitely not planned. I had given Andy gum so that he would be able to sit more quietly without moving into his neighbor's spaces. Of course Andy gets nothing without Sera wanting it too!

I sure wish the folks that gave Sera such a poor prognosis when she was in the orphanage could see her now! Your kids are so adorable!
