Several months a
go Evan and I went to a concert at Gymboree for
a kid's band called Caspar Babypants. The main singer, Chris Ballew is also the lead singer for The Presidents of the United States of America. They were popular in the mid 90's and even nominated for a Grammy twice. Since that first concert Evan has been hooked and just this week we went to our fourth Caspar Babypants concert. It is all
we listen to in the car (we own both of their CD's of course!) and Aaron and I find ourselves singing their songs constantly. Chris' music in The Presidents was not too far from kids' music to begin with. It is great to find music that is geared towards kids that is not obnoxious and is actually enjoyable. Evan adores Caspar (Chris), he knows most of the words to almost all of the songs, and even asked the other day if I could call him on the phone. Sitting in the audience again on Tuesday and realizing I was singing along to every word of every song made me feel like a total groupie! The concerts are incredibly popular and each time we've had to arrive as much as an hour early to the show to make sure we were able to get in. The things we do for our kids! It is all worth it, just seeing his face light up when they sing one of his favorite songs and seeing him dance brings me such joy. The first shot is Evan waiting patiently for the band to set-up, after 30 minutes his patience wore very thin and he was ready to see Caspar!

I LOVE the picture of him cutting a rug at the very front of the room. He looks completely star-struck.
