Reagan went to her first movie today.  B.C.S. in conjunction with Cinemark does this thing called Kids Summer Tuesdays.  During the month of June and July, they rerun the most popular kids films of the year for only a $1.  I just found out about it last week, so I looked it up and found out that this week it would be Horton Hears a Who.  I thought, what a great way to spend Tuesday morning.  This way Dad can sleep soundly right before I have to start teaching.
So, today, I woke the girls up early, gave them breakfast and baths, packed snacks and drinks, and we piled into the car to celebrate Reagan's first movie.  When Kate was a baby, we would take her to movies all the time, but when Reagan was born, I eschewed that form of entertainment.  Balancing a 3 year old and a baby in a darkened theater just wasn't my cup of tea.  I never thought I would haul THREE kids to a movie theater, but I figured it would be filled with parents and kidletts who wouldn't mind if Georgie started to fuss or Reagan got restless.
Georgie finished her bottle and her snacks before the movie started.  And she wasn't happy to sit on my lap.  Luckily, she's not quite done with the whole nursing thing, so she settled down on my lap and fell asleep.  The girls really enjoyed the time in the theater.  Reagan got scared by the monkeys.  Kate laughed when they all started singing, and Georgianna slept.  It looks like this might be something we do a couple more times this summer.
