Avery is not really one of those kids that will sit down in front of the television. Sometimes Jeremy and I wish that it would entertain her for a little while, like when we're in the car. However, the majority of the time, we are grateful that we have an active little girl who likes to do all kinds of activities. With that in mind, there is one thing that gets her attention on TV...a preview for the movie Cats and Dogs. (She is going through a phase where she is completely enamored with animals, constantly wanting to touch ours and making animal sounds.) Avery's grandpa decided to take advantage of this point in her life and take her to her first movie...
We didn't really have high hopes for her to last through the movie, but we still wanted her to have the experience and document it.
We came prepared with blankie and plenty of snacks...here goes nothing!
The movie was actually in 3D, a perk if you are older than 16 months old and will leave the glasses on, but a slight annoyance for Avery. She only left her glasses on long enough for me to take a couple of pictures, but the movies was still pretty good without the glasses.
This was also Avery's first experience with movie theater popcorn...I think this is the part Jeremy was most excited about. She absolutely loved the popcorn and ate so much that she didn't eat dinner at all that night, which is definitely not a common occurrence. She actually sat there for the entire movie until the last 10 minutes. She probably would have made it through the entire thing, but I knew that she still had a 2 hour car ride home, so I let her walk around in the halls for the last little bit. We had such a great time, and she really liked the movie!
