Natalie dancing while Jason plays the piano

On Friday night, we had our good friends Jason & Janna over for dinner and to hang out, which was one of our favorite things to do when we both lived in Houston. We are so happy to be able to spend time with them again, especially considering that Janna is 6 months pregnant, and we will be able to be around during this special time in their lives.

For those that do not know this, Natalie LOVES music. She loves listening to it, playing it on her little toys, singing at the top of her lungs, and dancing to it. For some reason she really likes dancing to the bluegrass station on tv. Kristin says it is because I am from Kentucky originally...maybe so. I know that I don't mind listening to bluegrass while she dances, double the fun for me!

Last night when Jason & Janna (& baby Nathan) were over, Jason started playing the piano at my request because he can actually play well (which is more than what I can say for Kristin and me, unfortunately). Natalie instantly grabbed her magic wand and started "shaking her boodie." Jason played as many Christmas songs and kid songs that he could think of. Janna, Kristin, and I sang to the melody and Natalie entertained all of us with her dance moves. Jason also played some classical pieces and a few rock tunes, which Natalie enjoyed.

When Jason had played all that he could think of, he got up and sat back down in the living room. Natalie looked at Jason and said "noo, noo" in a "I don't like what just happened" kind of voice. She walked over to Jason, grabbed his index finger and middle finger in her little hand, and started leading him across the living room. Jason played along, not knowing for sure where she was leading him. Sure enough, it was straight back to the piano for Jason. Right when they got to the piano, she took off running for her spot in the middle of the floor for dancing. It was quite funny to watch the whole thing transpire. Jason graciously abliged and played a few more songs for Natalie.

After that it was "night, night" for Natalie, which she never likes. I will leave you with a picture of Natalie dancing in the middle of the floor.
