We had a fun-ish movie night on Saturday. Lex and I picked up Happy Feet at the library and thought we’d have pizza and a movie and a fun family night. Turns out they had a lot of “screen time” all day, then we got the movie started later than I had hoped for, then Happy Feet was too scary for Eve so we switched to The Incredibles after half an hour and even that was too much for Eve. Of course she was pretty tired by this point. Neither of them ate any pizza, although they chowed on the fruits and veggies I set out as appetizers so I can’t complain about that! We ended up turning off the movie at 8:30 (I think it was) and Lex had a total meltdown. In hindsight I think we should have let him stay up and finish watching and just put Eve to bed, but obviously my brain wasn’t operating a peak performance. Sigh. It was a fun idea anyway, and Sunday morning the kids were talking about the fun movie night, so I guess that’s what matters most. Here is my favorite part:

Aren't they sweet? :)
