Get up and Dance!


So, I am one of the biggest Ellen fans!  The girls and I enjoy watching her show a couple times a week, and I always find myself laughing and just enjoying her.  So when I saw her "Dance Dares" and me being pregnant, I knew it was something I just had to do.  So what is a dance dare you ask?  It's when you dance behind unsuspecting people in public, and it's freaking hilarious!

Here's some of her best: Ellen's Dance Dares

Then one day she put out a special call to pregnant moms to dance dare.  Then I knew I was truly on a mission.  The problem - I was already pretty far along and didn't know how I'd shake my booty and not hit someone with the bump (which is a daily occurrence).  Since we had overnight babysitters last weekend, we decided we'd hit the town to shoot some videos.

It was tougher than I thought - you really have to stake out good candidates.  Unfortunately our best video had some technical difficulties (user error), but we got a couple decent ones.  It was really a lot of fun - I don't think Steve and I have laughed that hard together in a long time (other than at the kids).  I recommend, pregnant or not, videotaped or not, everyone should try it sometime, maybe if you're having a bad day or just need a good laugh.

We did submit the video to Ellen, and we'll see if we make the cut and get the $100 JCPenney giftcard.  Even if we don't, it was a good time and a good way to end this long pregnancy!
