Matt has last night off so we decided to take Livi to her first movie at the theater. My parent's were awesome and took Ian for the evening. We went to see Shrek Forever After. Got to the theater a little early so we'd be able to get situated in the theater before it was too dark in there. Got a tub of popcorn, some candy and a drink figured that'd keep her seated since she loves popcorn. We walked in and were the only people there. I was hoping it would stay this way but a few minutes before it started two other groups of people came in. Livi was great through the previews and first hour of the movie but when the goodies were almost gone she was ready to go. So we bailed with half hour left of the movie. She wanted to go shopping at Target (my daughter totally haha) If the other groups of people weren't there we would have just let her run around burn off some of that sugar and we'd finish the movie. Livi did a lot better then I thought she would. She did talk loudly during parts and we had to remind her to whisper which was to be expected. I think in a year she'll be the perfect age to sit through a movie. We may brave it in a few weeks and take her again to see Toy Story 3. She's really into Toy Story right now so maybe we'd have better luck with that one. Maybe do a matinee that time around.
