Shakin' It!

This morning I took Claire to one of her beloved toddler classes at Murray Library. She LOVES it! I've learned to never tell her where we are going more than thirty minutes prior, because if we can't make it, she will talk about it all day and get very upset.

Attending Wiggle Worms is something we have been doing for almost a year now. They sing songs, play with scarfs, count, read books, do bubbles, go under a parachute, and dance with shakers, all while being led by a wonderful instructor. Generally, there are around 50 kids in attendance and it can get very loud and chaotic. Somehow, the teacher manages to make it fun and exciting for everyone.

One of Claire's favorite parts in Wiggle Worms is when they dance with the shakers. I get such a kick out of watching her concentrate on moving them. The funniest part is when they sing "jump jump jump my jiggles out". Claire always has to hand me her shakers so she can jump at her highest ability. It's hilarious! See above for a little clip.

Fast forward to this afternoon. I put Claire down for her nap and she would not go to sleep. I was in the office getting some work done and started hearing her on the monitor singing the "shaker song" from this morning. She actually did a really good job with it. At one point, I even heard her say "good job Claire you did it" (wish I would have gotten that on video). Too cute!
