We took Stratton to see the Yogi Bear movie today. Back a few months ago when Jarrod and I were at the theater seeing a movie there was a poster advertising for the Yogi Bear movie, and Jarrod said "I think I know what Stratton's first movie is going to be!". It came out the week before Christmas, but we were in Branson and this was the first chance we have had to go!! I didn't get any pictures because we were running late (as always) and it was raining! We had thought we would go to the 2:30 showing but Stratton (and Jarrod) was still taking a nap. So, we ended up going to the 4:30 show. I knew he wouldn't sit through the whole thing but he did better than I expected! At the beginning the surround sound took him by surprise, he was looking behind him to see what was going on! He sat in Jarrod's lap for a good 30 minutes straight watching before starting to get a little restless, then he sat in the seat between us till about 30 minutes before it was over, then he started getting really restless and wanting down so he and I went out to the bathroom and then stood by the stairs in the theater. We actually stayed for the entire movie! It wasn't that great of a movie (not that I really expected it to be) but I think Stratton enjoyed most of it. He would get distracted when it got to the slower parts, but for the most of it he was really into it! I think it will be awhile before we try it again, but I was really proud of him!
As soon as the movie was over we ran to Wendy's and grabbed a bite before heading straight to church! In church tonight Stratton was blowing kisses to our friend Carla and flirting with her. Matt (her husband) started acting like it made him mad and Stratton just thought that was so funny! He's always been a social baby, but lately he has started really eating up attention!
Jarrod's mom is coming tomorrow afternoon to pick up Stratton. He is going to stay with them until Saturday. I have so much to do while he is gone- take down all the christmas decor, clean house (using my new Bissell sweeper steam mop), take back & exchange some christmas gifts, give the dog a bath (that's another story all together!) and figure out where we are having our New Year's get together and find something to cook for that!
I can't believe tomorrow is Thursday! Why does vacation time go by so fast?! I am not ready to go back to work!!
