a typical evening with our spirited child
We ordered Indian food for dinner tonight, which Elanor ate with relish. As we were cleaning up, Brett put on the new Jay-Z song and we started taking things into the kitchen. The next thing we knew, Elanor was on top of the table, dancing away. So we did what any responsible good…er, uh…parents would do, and I grabbed the camera while Brett re-started the song.
Halfway through, Brett decided to join in. I think he’s referencing this video piece he recently did.
Oh, and about the title, I’ve been reading “Raising Your Spirited Child” lately, and this video seems to be a good encapsulation of just how spirited both Elanor and her papa are.
No matter how ridiculous this may seem, at least I can say that life around our house is almost never boring.

Hehe, I LOVE it! Brett reminds me SO much of Dustin with his shirtless dancing antics
. We actually have a designated “nudie/shake your booty” dance time for the little ones every night after dinner…one of the best parts of my day

I was watching this video and Tim came up to see what I was doing and started shaking his head saying, “no, no, no.” Guess you can guess what I say when he’s on our table
I love the cuteness of it!

That is so adorable that Caleb and I were grinning ear to ear and I was actually welling up! I think I was just overcome with the cuteness and family bonding time. Oh, how we love you guys and your delightful family!

I can’t even handle it!! Though watching Brett dance around in his underwear was a little scary. Even Elanor was screaming!! Something tells me there are going to be more fun videos coming soon with Christmas just days away.
