I've been hearing about all these kids who have gone to movies and have done just fine, so we finally decided to jump on the bandwagon and took Simon to his first show: Chipwrecked.
{Bryan and I were not super excited about going to a chipmunks movie, but it turned out to be mildly amusing.}
Simon was pretty mesmerized by the whole experience and sat perfectly still the whole time. Towards the end he was snuggling on my lap and in a sad little voice told me he wanted to go home. The boy was wiped. So rather than forcing him to fight sleep in a movie theater, we packed up and headed home. Simon is no longer a napper, but every once in a while he just cannot stay awake and this was one of those days. I'm glad we left early because he wound up napping for about 2 hours - nothing short of a miracle in our house these days!
The best part of it all was seeing the shocked expression on Bryan's face when Simon exclaimed "Hey, that's not a fox!" when the 20th Century Fox logo came on the screen :) Priceless!
