We went this afternoon. Big excitement because we don't take the kids to the movies very often. I think the last time was Alvin and the Chipmunks last fall. Kailyn wanted to look Cool like the girls in the Movie. She is all about looking cool and not looking cute now. Problem with this is that she does not like the way how pants and jeans feel. Only velour and jogging type pants. She has decided she does not like tights either. Once in a while she will tolerate the jeans, but it depends on her mood. I understand why she does not want to look "cute". Most of the girls don't wear dresses in first grade, but she decided she could last week because she had not felt well and the dresses are more comfortable. Oh, and skirts are cool. At least if they have a lot of glitter and tulle on them. On the weekends she happily wears her dresses. Its hard changing from a dress girl to a pants girl, when you really just want to be a dress girl, but it is not cool.
Anyway, she picked out the outfit pictured below (all bought by Nanie except the sweater/shawl) because it is cool (the stars are silver and the tights sparkle)and wanted to wear her hair down because that is how the teenagers do it. (she is 6 for crying out loud) I let her put a little make up on for the event (barely noticeable) and she felt like a superstar.
The movie was good. Kailyn was glued to it the whole time, but during slow times Sam got restless. At the finale Sam was dancing like a Maniac and had the two rows behind us laughing hysterically. He danced a little throughout, but really let it loose at the end. He usually is in constant motion so 1 hour and 40 minutes of sitting is a lot.
We messed up giving Kailyn's insulin in the movie theatre so she ended up 399 and we had to correct it at 4:00 after we left. (mental note to self: get there early enough so you can test, see the carb amounts and see the amount of insulin you are giving) She started crying hysterically for no reason so we knew her levels were off and pulled over in a parking lot to correct things.
Below are the cool clothes/hair/makeup pictures and Sam was trying to make cool faces.
