Dancing

Sometimes I will put some music on, and the boys and I will dance in the living room together...just being silly and having fun.  This morning we danced for a good while, and once James started getting tired, he had me hold him and dance with him.  Too cute!  This definitely won't last forever, so I need to enjoy all these precious moments...and try to remember them when the boys get older and want nothing to do with me.  : )

It is great fun to watch James dance on his own!  He just goes crazy and makes up some of the cutest dance moves and gymnastic tricks (he will somersault or stand on his head leaning against the couch).  Usually he wants everyone to join in with him, and he just has a blast. 

Sam will move around to the music a little bit and have a big smile on his face.  He also laughs a lot at James because he loves watching his older brother be silly.

Dancing makes a great rainy day activity too.  Even if you can't dance (like me), it doesn't matter because young children don't know that...at least not yet.  Same goes for singing...feel free to sing your heart out with your kids...they won't know you are out of tune or saying the wrong words.  They just enjoy the music and love that you are willing to be involved with them.
