First Trip to the Movies...

On Sunday Matt mentioned going to see the new Monsters University movie at the theater. He humored me when I suggested taking Alex with us rather than dropping him off with a grandparent. So off we all went to the movies. We went to Movie Tavern where you can order food during the movie and had lunch while the movie played.

Much to our surprise, Alex did fantastic! He sat in my lap the whole time, completely locked in to the movie. At different parts he would react with a little jump if it was scary, a laugh at the funny parts, clapping when the characters clapped and even threw in a roar when the monsters were practicing their roars.

Right at the end he started pointing at Mike (the little green monster) and calling him "one eye" and would turn to me and say "big eye momma!". It was really cute. When the credits started rolling and the lights came back on, he looked at Matt and said "more daddy!". So I guess he liked it! Monday night we put in Monsters Inc at home and he once again, watched and enjoyed it. Wanting us to start it over when it ended.

Guess we can add movies to the list of family activities now!
