We spent the day at home today, none of us feeling completely up to par. We aren't sick, but we were all 3 tired all day. Dennis wanted to watch movies ALL day (which is how we knew he was tired) but he did have a couple of hours of playtime fun. I will have to say that his dance technique has improved. Recently I set up his own cd player in his room and have been playing his series of classical music discs for him. He always claps his hands delightedly when I push the play button. I have all his music stored on an old RCA mp3 player, but it eats batteries something fierce, so I have resorted to playing it the old fashioned way (sort of... cds are certainly not that old-fashioned!). For travel, all his music is also stored on playlists on David's and my iPods, but he is enjoying once again hearing it in his room.
His dancing style used to involve rapid and repeated foot stomping. Now he's incorporated spinning along with the stomping, and he nods or shakes his head as well. He's a dancing fool! Though I admit, I haven't seen many folks flat out disco to Bach's Badinerie in B Minor for Flute and Strings, but that's the music that set his little feet to moving today. He threw himself into the performance and I am kicking myself for choosing today to charge the video camera battery. He was just so into it! He also spent some time today running up and down our hallway at top speed, as depicted in the picture.
