MOVIES!!

Yesterday Vincent went down for a nap at 4:30 and I was able to make dinner and Travis and I were able to eat with out trying to keep Vincent happy. Then I woke him up about 6:30 to eat and Travis said he needed to get out of the house and do something. We decided to try a movie. I was kind of worried because I thought he would be wide a wake because he just had a 2 hour nap and he had a nap earlier that day. But it's only at the dollar movie if anything we would be out 2 dollars. We got there a few minutes after and previews started and sat in the back and at the end of the row. Luckily there wasn't that many people in there. At first I had to stand up with him and bounce him so he would be good and then after about 5 minutes he feel asleep in my lap and slept the whole time and even slept for an hour after we got home. It was so nice to be able to get out and not have to worry about if Vincent is crying the whole time we are gone or having to rush out of the movie right when it's over to go and get him. I don't think he will let us do it that often but it sure was fun. And believe it or not he actually slept pretty good last night. I guess he just needs a lot of sleep during the day to sleep good at night? Maybe...or maybe not?

Wow, that's awesome! When Oakley was younger we took her to a couple movies, but I was always so worried about keeping her quiet I couldn't really enjoy them. But we haven't tried lately, maybe we should and pray she behaves like Vincent!

I love his face in that picture. I'm glad you guys were able to get out and have a good time.

P.S.- Okay, okay...so I got a little carried away with the simple story Jon told me and decided to spice it up a little bit. But the basics, like what the ant did, came from Jon. Now, the reasons for why the ant did what he did, that was all me. I think I need to get out more....

Yea! Believe it or not, but M started sleeping through the night when I started to make her nap more. She was overtired from not sleeping enough during the day and couldn't get enough restful sleep at night!
