Jared was off on Tuesday, so we thought it would be fun to take Eleanor to the movies for the first time. She was really excited and kept telling Puppy all about how we were going to the 'foovies' to see a 'bideo.' The movie was The Cat in the Hat with Mike Meyers. She did really well. She sat so still in Daddy's lap, and only occasionally yelled out a comment about something on the screen.
We left after about 40 minutes. Not because she was ready to go, but because the language started to be a little inappropriate for a little girl who repeats everything. I really didn't want to deal with my toddler randomly blurting out "Son of a ...." in public. The movie is rated PG, but I thought most of the "P" stuff would go over her head. Wrong.
Anyway, we might go back in a few weeks when they're showing Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium, which is rated G.

That is awesome you have something like that! I'm glad she did so well, that is great!
Awww....we did first movies (mooies to Marielle) on the same day!!
How fun! There is a theater near us that does that, but I've been scared to take Grace. I'm sure she would do fine though.
LOL
Chris found a website where the movies are reviewed meticulously by parents, and it is excellent. I'll ask him what it is...but they are a great guide. We now ONLY do rated G. The kids just pick up too much too quickly.
It is a fun experience, isn't it?
Very cool place! We haven't taken the kids to the movies yet - we're too chicken, he-he.
