Movie Madness
This summer we took advantage of Harkin's Summer Movie Fun. For $6 each Elijah and I could go to the movies every Monday at 9:45 for 10 weeks. The twins were free. Bonus. For $12 plus $2 a week for 2 large sodas/powerade we had the ability to see 10 movies. Because I work every 3rd sunday (except 1) I missed a couple, but still...not bad. The first 3weeks were spent figuring out how to get the twins to sit down. Yeah, right. Then I got a little smarter and sat on the floor seats so that they couldn't go up and down the stairs. It was a challenge. But Elijah loved it. And next year should be easier. I think Elijah is a little bummed it's over. He keeps asking when we get to go to the movies again. Sorry buddy. I wish they had one day a week for $1 movies for kids that aren't in school yet. It would give us something to do that's not so expensive. Oh well. We are going to the library to get books and soon their toddler storytime starts up again.
Speaking of books, the boys are LOVING being read to now. It's a ritual. Naptime and bedtime we must read all the library books and then some of ours! I love it! This weeks favorite library book is Rhyming Dust Bunnies by Jan Thomas. It's 4 year old funny. Elijah says it is the most hilarious book he has ever read. He literally rolls off the bed laughing. I'm not joking. The twins really liked Knuffle Bunny by Mo Williams. I feel like there are all these really good books I check out and then forget about. I need a place to make a list on my blog! Wouldn't that be neat? A weekly best book? If only I had a blogging following maybe I could get books sent to me to review. Ha ha! Wouldn't that be cool?
