We were all in the bathroom during "tub time" - Bryan, Isla, and me
witnessing Maddox dance it up (and sing too.)
Like I've stated before, Maddox is usually a pretty shy guy,
but if you catch him with his guard down he gets pretty wacky.
He started off by singing slow soft songs and then
finished with something he called
"The Tooty Tot".
The Tooty Tot, the tooty tot,
the tooty ta ta,
thumbs up,
elbows back,
feet apart,
knees together,
bottoms up,
tongue out,
close your eyes,
and turn around.
(maddox's version)
He then proceeded to turn around in circles, with his eyes closed,
tongue out, shaking his tushy, singing tooty tot tooty tot tooty ta ta,
all while in his birthday suit in a half full tub.
It was entertainment for all.
(after doing a little YouTube research I found out this "Tooty Tot" thing
must be a pretty popular song and dance amongst the young folk)
A BIG thanks to all of this fabulous teachers for loving him as much as we do
and opening up his imaginative 4 year old mind to so many
wonderful, creative activities!
You are the BEST!
And I promise this is the last time you will have to see this thing . . .
that is until I get the finished product.
I thought it appropriate to not leave you wondering about how
things ended up with my first quilt making experience.
A few nights later I did take out my first seam,
took a few deep breaths, and was much more patient the second go round.
Although its not perfect, things started out and ended much better.
Now I must just cut off about a bucket full of strings
straighten out the edges
and decide on my backing fabric
and off to get finished and quilted it will go!
And I have decided that in my next life I want to be a photographer of unimportant meaningless things. That way I could actually get paid for all of the time I waste on taking pictures of really nothing at all. I mean seriously I probably wasted a half of an half an hour taking pictures of these pins . . . "pins for goodness sake!"
