The Wiggles

A few months ago Steve and I found out that The Wiggles were coming to the State Theater in Minneapolis. Since this is one of Jack's favorite shows, we decided it would be a good opportunity for us to take him to his first concert and stay over night in a hotel without the baby. We asked our friends Dan and Katie if they wanted to join us with their daughter Quinn, and they agreed to come.

We left around noon on Saturday, so Jack could nap in the car on the way down. I just have to share this picture of him napping because A.) He looks like he is about 4 years old and B.) He insisted on leaving his hat on the whole ride with his ear sticking out.



We checked into the hotel, downtown Minneapolis, around 3pm and just hung out in the room until Dan, Katie, and Quinn arrived. The theater was only 1 block away so we waited to walk over to the concert until about 15 minutes before it started. We had pretty good seats on the floor level and were nice and close to the aisle. The concert lasted about 1 1/2 hours and Jack and Quinn seemed to do pretty well. Jack sat for quite a while on Steve's lap in amazement, but then ventured to the floor for some dancing.



Once the show was over we headed to The Hopscotch Grill for dinner. Of course Jack didn't eat much because he and Quinn were too busy playing around on the big corner booth we had. After dinner, it was back to the hotel so Jack could get to bed.


On to a completely different topic - this weekend Olivia also started rolling back to front. Now every time you lay her down on her back, she almost immediately rolls over. Hopefully she starts to like being on her stomach because we can't keep rolling her back.
