Dora, Dora, Dora

On Sunday, I had the chance to take Rebecca to one of my favorite places in Atlanta, The Fabulous Fox Theater. No, I did not drag her to a Broadway show, we went to see Dora Live: Dora and the City of Lost Toys. I have been so excited not only to take Rebecca to the Fox but to see Dora. As I might have mentioned before, she hearts Dora.

The Fox and the show did not disappoint. As soon as we walked out of the parking garage onto Peachtree Street, she was mesmerized. There were tall building, cars speeding by, flashing lights, and lots of people. She could not get enough of it as we waited on our friends, Ellen and Julie.

Once we were inside the theater, there was even more to see. I tried very hard to get a picture of Rebecca looking at the camera, but she was too busy taking it all in.

Rebecca got very excited once the show started. As each character came out she would scream, wave her arms, and say "Hey Boots!", "Hey Tico!" and on and on. It was so cute. The rest of the show she did not take her eyes off the stage.

At the end of the show, she stood up in my chair and danced and danced with the rest of the people in the Fox. She was bouncing up and downing and swinging her hair from side to side. I have never seen her dance so hard. I wanted to badly to pull out my camera and take a video, but I was scared to let go of her. Needless to say, Rebecca LOVED Dora Live.

Before the show, Ellen bought her girls both Dora dolls. Since Amelia wasn't at the show, Rebecca decided to take her Dora doll. I am not sure if she has let go of it since she stole it. (Not to worry, I bought Amelia a new one.) Dora has to be buckled in a seat belt when we leave the house. I have to hold Dora's hand when we walk up stairs. Dora naps when Rebecca naps. It is like I have two children.

In other news, Rebecca finally learned to jump getting both feet off the ground. She has been jumping for a while, but not properly. Here is a video of her practicing her new skill.

She also did some decorating in our Den. Dora does wonders as window treatments, don't you think?
