Tuesday Morning Adventures

This morning we joined some friends for a trip to the Free Summer Family Film Festival at a local movie theater. They were showing March of the Penguins, which I remember to be a somewhat slow moving movie, but I figured... it's free! So why not?


Little man was enthralled by the previews... (there was a rocket in one of them... if only we were there to see a rocket movie)


Very excited about his kid movie treats...


and REALLY happy to leave once the baby penguins hatched... We lasted about 50 minutes in the theater. I was surprised we made it that long. The treats helped. :) Andrew mostly just wanted to watch the penguin eggs freeze (the ones that didn't make it and died--- yeah, he's really interested in morbid things lately).

He was also really wanting to pose a lot outside of the theater afterwards for pictures. Weird kid! Kept telling me to take his picture so he could say cheese.


After all the sitting time at the movie, we headed over to a fun new park that we discovered.

Andrew- "I am the king of the world!"

Negotiating for sand toys
Andrew was of course willing to give the shovel he didn't like away...
but that wasn't what his little buddy wanted.

The awesome face I got when I gave him a 15 min warning until we were going home...
paired with a "No thanks Mom!"

Little dude is trying to give me gray hairs... he is definitely a climber like his dad

This slide brought back terrifying memories of when he got his toddler fracture last Fall. It wasn't as twisty, but still was a little too steep and a little too fast (for me)... so of course he had to go on it again and again.

Static hair!

Love this kid!

We also had a fun morning at Lowes trying to get paint samples. I think I am going to have a hard time picking blue & pink colors for the kid rooms... but I'll save that dilemma for another post though!

Time to get prepped for Camp Mom this afternoon! We have some friends over and we're going to do some fun activities focused on BUILDING... so check out Toddler Approved later if you want to see all the successful and unsuccessful things we did!
