Taylor's First Movie

On July 24, 2008, I took Taylor (21mos 3wks) to her first movie...Charlotte's Web. This was the Charlotte's Web with Julia Roberts as Charlotte. We met Lorinda with Anissa (3yrs 4mos) and Mackenna (9mos 3wks). We sat in the handicapped section with the big seats and lots or room for Makenna's stroller.

Taylor had her own little popcorn and HiC orange drink with a straw, which she liked. She sat content for a little while with me, enjoying her popcorn, and watching the animals talk. It didn't take too long before she found it a little more entertaining to run over and say hi to Anissa. Thankfully, Lorinda came prepared with lots of toys for Makenna, and Makenna didn't mind sharing with Taylor. I think Taylor did pretty good. She was not thoroughly entertained by the movie, but I think she behaved herself pretty well.

After the movie, we walked over to Red Robin for lunch. Of course there were lots of balloons available for the girls. Anissa picked an orange balloon.
Taylor had a blue balloon. Balloons are very exciting for Taylor right now! Soon after we sat down, Anissa's balloon found it's way to the top of the room, and out of reach. Lorinda quickly ran over and got Anissa another orange balloon. This resolved the situation for everyone but Taylor, who was thereafter a bit concerned and would not take her hands off her blue balloon for the duration of lunch. Taylor and I shared a Whiskey River BBQ Chicken wrap, apples, and a strawberry lemonade. Her little mouth is full, but her hands are not off the balloon.She would watch the orange balloon and remind us, "balloon up high."
And here is the ever pleasant Makenna who sits content and happy while holding her own little water...straws nearby.
