Fashion Show
Today we had our first annual community fashion show, JJ, Diva and I were asked to model for Gottchalks. Well let me just say, that my children LOVE the limelight. As soon as Diva saw the stage and we practiced walking she litteraly would not get off. As soon as she was off she ran back up the ramp, and even would do a turn when told (14 months old can you believe it?). She had strangers taking her picture, she would just smile and pose now keep in mind that this is during rehearsal, she had fallen in love with the stage.
So now we are 15th in line to go, a good 20 minutes, well it felt like 4 hours with her screaming and pointing to the stage, she wanted to go NOW! We had to keep her held and occupied, which if you know the Diva that was hard.
here she is on the runway, getting oohs and ahhs from the crowd. But really she just loved the stage. 
JJ on the otherhand….loves the CROWD! He had people cheering LOUDLY and clapping for him, for he didn’t miss a mark…walk, stop, turn, pose……walk, stop, turn, pose…(posing to JJ was showing his mucles, like a suprerhero) The crowd was one over on his first “pose” by the third turn he was asking the crowd if they wanted to see them again…and when he left the stage the crowd roared (yup thats my baby!)
Here is me and my Diva.
So I guess, my children take after me a little….I loved the stage when I was little and I loved to make the crowds laugh in high school Drama….I was usually in a comedy role…Maybe my boy will be on Saturday night live in a few years. It was fun, except for keeping Diva occupied until her turn, next time we will ask to go FIRST.
