a little pre-bedtime dance

eleanore and claire love to bust a move. when they hear music that is upbeat they instantly shoot a hand up and move it up and down. they shake their bodies a bit, but the best part is the arm. when putting them to sleep we do a little youtube video of “scrat from ice age” or “maximus from tangled” and they almost always answer with the same response (which I can’t believe – and they do change their opinions each day). the best part about the scrat video clip is that at the end of it there is a little dance music that plays. claire always shoots her hand up and rocks it. lately, ellie has been joining her. it is so precious.
bill was home tonight so I decided to snap some pictures of the scene so I can cement it in my brain. e&c are growing so quickly and when I hold charlie I realize how quickly they will be too big for me to cuddle them and have them arm dance.
video starting.

this is right before the music starts. claire prepares by putting her arm up in the air. then once it starts she jukes and jives it. ellie wasn’t feeling it tonight, but that is probably because she had already arm danced during dinner.

whoever is putting them down reads some books and then they pray. here the girls are showing how they fold their hands. love this.
