Go, Diego, Go!!!


Today, Brad's brother & I ventured to Toronto with Sydney & Max to see Go, Diego, Go. Rather than deal with the drive & cost of parking, we thought we would give the kids an extra treat by taking them on the train. Apparently this did turn out to be a special treat for Sydney as she says it was her favourite part of the day.

The kids were good, the show was good, so all in all it was a pretty good day. Both Sydney & Max were bouncing off one another when we first got of the train, but the novelty wore off much quicker for Max than it did Sydney & I think her excitement started to get on his nerves. We took an 8:45 train so there were not too many commuters, which was probably a good thing since there was a lot of 2 to 4 year olds on the train. Obviously we were not the only ones thinking it was a good idea to take advantage of transit.

I am one of those people that will be easily suckered by my kids when they want to buy overpriced souvenirs at shows, because I was one of those kids that wanted that stuff. We even went to look at it afterwards, but Sydney really wasn't interested. So, I figured it was best to walk away without anything rather than set an expectation for her that she doesn't initiate.

Of course, cameras were not allowed during the performance- so there are no shots of it. Here are a few of Sydney & Max.

Nothing like sugar smothered on a bagel to get ready for her big day.

Why do they put pockets on kids pants?

Yeah, free Baby Jaguar masks. This was all they needed to be happy.

This looks like so much fun. Liam is really into Diego (and trains) right now, and the show came to Detroit, but we figured he's still too little for it right now. We'll see whether he still likes Diego the next time the show comes to town!
