Sesame Street Breakfast at Sea World

For Katie's birthday, mom really wanted to take Katie to Sea World to have brunch with the Sesame Street Monsters. We were all set to go for the 29th when they called and said they needed to reschedule. We were able to reschedule for yesterday, and we had so much fun!

It was such a beautiful day at the park, and we got there before it opened so it wasn't crowded. I had to nurse Nathan before we ate, and I sat out on the picnic tables near the lake. I forgot how peaceful the park was in the mornings before opening. Mom, Papa, Grandma, Grandpa, Paul, and Katie went on in to eat and meet the characters.

Katie wasn't too sure what to think of the characters at first. She is such a fan of Sesame Street at home. She knows all the characters names, even Tele, whom Paul had to identify for me. She squeals with delight when they come on TV, and she points out any article that has their pictures on it while we are out shopping. She even tries to "sing along" with the Elmo's World song. However, she wasn't so sure that she wanted to be close to them in person.

When the characters came over to our table, she got scared and tensed up. She would hide her face in her hands or cry when we stood next to them. I was hoping since we were there a little longer than when we took pictures with them in the park last month, she would warm up, but it didn't happen. Oh well! We had such a great time, and she really did have a blast! I hope that we will be able to do the brunch again next year. Maybe then we can get some good pictures of her snuggling up with Elmo and Grover. Or as she says "Momo and SUP-P-P--ER!"
