Elephant & Pig Partay!

Yes, partay, not party. Because it is that kind of party. Well, not really. But Mommy did shake (I mean wake) the Bear up thirty minutes before the party started, shoved him into some coveralls, threw down some cereal, and voila – we were just 7 minutes late.

We arrived just in time to listen to a marathon of four Elephant and Pig storytelling. The Bear was able to sit through the first two, but then was “over it” after the freeze dance. Before the finale (a new book that the Elephant & Pig had apparently written and are doing a national tour), the Bear and Mommy bailed. But not before throwing some balls into a basket (one of the books is about the elephant and pig learning to throw). We headed out before the possibility of the Bear being tempted by the ice cream partay. As if Mommy wanted Daddy to cut off her head. The audacity!

Later, it was train time and puzzle time. Mommy had to kill her instincts to try to finish the floor puzzle. Especially since the Bear had already walked away. And she wasn’t even really having fun anyway. What a weird trait to always want to finish everything she starts.
