Dinner with Cookie Monster

Yup, the tradition contiued. We had dinner with Cookie Monster. The local Pizza Hut has "kids night" on Tuesday nights and occasionally characters appear. Well, Landon has gotten really good at noticing when the big white sign appears and recognizing who is coming to Pizza Hut on Tuesday night. Last week it was Cookie Monster and since he is a fan of both kids, it was a no-brainer that that's where we would head for dinner on Tuesday. I am really lucky that we can go before the masses appear and it gets REALLY crowded. We usually can get in, get out, and get our pictures and usually before Daddy gets home, too. Over the past year, we've seen Bob the Builder, Bear in the BIg Blue House, Clifford, Diego, Boots and Shrek. (There are probably others that I'm forgetting at the moment.) It is a nice time and it's been fun seeing Lauren warm up to the characters as she's grown older. She won't go and give them hugs, (yet) but she will high five them and talk to them. WHen we saw Cookie Monster in the parking lot her first question was, was "Where's Elmo?" To which I quickly had to reply "On Sesame Street." (I'm getting quite good at translating for the character's. My favorite character was Bear in the Big Blue House because he could actually talk!).
