Dance Parties!

One of my favorite things to do with my kids is to have dance parties in our kitchen.  When Finn was 15 months old, I record one of our dance parties.  I then recorded did another one when I was pregnant with Fish in hopes of having a great way to keep track of how big I would get during my pregnancy with him.  Unfortunately, I broke my foot at 20 weeks and I completely forgot about our dance party videos until he was born.  But I have tried to keep up with them on a monthly basis (some months are better than the other).  It's really a great way to watch them grow (and to watch me make a fool of myself as we dance without inhibitions).  Check back often for new videos (I have a lot to upload)...

Finn was 4.25 years old & Fish was 2.25 years old.
Say Hey "I Love You" by Michael Franti
A return to the original.  Fish didn't want to dance, but did make an appearance in the middle of the video.  Finn was on fire this dance party and my mimicking her did her no justice.

Finn was 4 years old & Fish was 2 years old.

House Party by Sam Hunt
This is the last dance party that we had in our Cleveland house.  It was a really shitty day, I was flying solo, trying to pack up a house and I was yelling a lot.  So we broke into an impromptu dance party to put everything back into perspective.
