The Movies

Stella & I were invited by a friend to go to the movies yesterday to see "The Princess and the Frog". I was sure she would sit through the movie, but wasn't sure about the darkness and and the volume. She did great! The very first thing on the screen (before the previews and the movie) was a HUGE scary eye and lightning and it was extremely loud - when they are trying to show you how cool the theater surround sound is...so that freaked her out, she screamed and jumped into my lap. She stayed in my lap for the previews, but quickly went back to her own seat (to be near Anna!) once the movie began. Partially through the movie she whispered "mom" and when I looked down she just patted my hand...a great thank-you. She's not a fan of popcorn, but loved the juice box and cookie Meg snuck inside. She can't wait until daddy takes her to see "Toy Story 3" next!

How cute!! I've wanted to take my nephews to the movies but have been unsure if they'd sit still for that long. After seeing them sit and watch intently The Land Before Time while I was home for Christmas, I'm thinking next time I'll take them!
