Just Jones'n: Dora!

Being the youngest child, Mckenna usually has to do what the older kids are doing. I feel guilty sometimes because she doesn't always get to do all the stuff 4 year olds get to do. Not that she is neglected by any means, she gets her fair share of things, it's just the little kid stuff that you do as a family when all the kids are younger. I thought it would be a great idea to take her to Dora Live! She loves Dora -- so much in fact that she can count to 10 in Spanish. Thanks Dora! I tried to convince some of the older kids to come but they weren't having any part of it, and really you can't blame them. So Mike and I decided to get tickets and take her.

A couple of days later my friend Amy, who is the mother of Mckenna's good friend Zade mentioned to me about going to Dora. Zade loves Dora just as much as Mckenna does. So we all went. Zade most often calls Mckenna Dora we've figured out it's probably because she looks so much like Dora.

When we started our journey into the theatre, I am not sure which one of the kids insisted on holding hands but they ended up holding hands the entire way into the theatre. So cute! They were so excited about going and it was fun watching them talk as we were walking in.

Zade had to take a break from the hand holding thing, because well the rocks looked more appealing to climb on. Mckenna waited patiently for Zade to get the whole rock climbing thing out of his system. She is learning this skill at a very young age.

We finally made it in the theatre. Mckenna looks like she's in pain, but she's really not. Actually, I think that this was right after she saw the guy who played "boots". It was not a pretty sight and could be scary for a little child. They both sat through the performance and had a great time.

After it was over, Mckenna desperately wanted to hold Zade's hand but he wanted NO part of it. He went and saw Dora with her and that was it, he was done.
