Tiny Tots

I happened on tickets to the Seattle Symphony's Tiny Tots this week. Today was the first performance of the season. They are half hour long musical performances geared towards children ages 0-5 years. We went to the 9:30am showing. Seems so early, but Vincent's schedule is early.

We went down to Pike Place Market's La Panier for coffee and pastries. That place was packed at 8:30am! I was amazed at how busy the market was, in general, at that hour. But, it's a gorgeous fall day today, so I don't blame people coming out of the woodwork to enjoy it.

We gave ourselves enough time to find parking, but scored a sweet spot just across the street! We had just enough time to finish our coffees and find a good seat. The show had a barnyard theme, which featured the banjo, the fiddle, a pair of spoons, and another instrument that I can't remember what it's called! It starts with a "d" and it's played on your lap...I've gotta ask David's brother the name of this instument! Anyway, Vincent had a blast. He danced along to the music and clapped, and even sat quietly watching. Thirty minutes was just the perfect amount of time, too!

Oh, and David dressed Vincent in this cute little linen suit that was passed on to us from a friend. We have been waiting to find an event to dress him up in it! I would post a picture, but I couldn't find our camera this morning.
