after church today, we took sweet baby ethan to our friend Eugenia's house so she could watch him while kevin and i took myah and eli to birmingham at the McWane Center for a pj party and their FIRST movie, The Polar Express-IMAX-style. eli asked several times, "where esan?" (so sweet!) and during the movie, there was a baby crying behind us and he quickly turned around and said, "esan?" awwww! even after we got back in the car after dinner, he said, "go home? see esan?!" i love it!!!!
we weren't real sure how eli would do w/ such a big, loud movie-but he sat on my lap-quiet, no less-the entire movie and they both thought it was so fun!after the movie, all kids wearing pj's (which all kids did!) got a jingle bell as we exited the theater...if you've seen the movie, you'll understand why they handed out bells...
after the movie, everyone went to the p.j. party where we had cookies, hot chocolate and chocolate milk-while good daddy stood in line...(you'll see what for in a minute)
yummy fun!
they were so patient and even got a little silly while waiting...
cuttin a rug...
and what kid doesn't love these ropey-line-marker-thingys?
still having fun while waiting our turn...
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, daddy!
and who's the bigger sibling? almost our turn to see...
SANTA! SANTA! SANTA!
the kid in front of us was crying on santa's lap, which made eli a little leary at first-but he actually did great!
Eli: "hmmm. i wonder if he knows that i throw fits when i don't get my way! i am two, ya know-so surely, i'll be on the 'nice' list!" just in case, i'll just sit here looking cute!
after the party, we headed to our FAVE restaurant, chipotle and then made the hour-long trip back home to get our baby. eugenia, THANK YOU SO MUCH! we had SUCH a fun time w/ "the big kids" and we owe you bigtime for allowing us to do this!
