The Princess and the Frog

To celebrate Tim being done with finals, he surprised Xavier with a movie date with mom and dad. After taking Xavier to see Up and leaving because the dogs scared him we haven't ventured to the theaters. Although we now own Up! and Xavier loves it. I guess the dogs aren't as intimidating on a 27 inch screen as say a movie theater screen. Oh and Xavier refers to himself as Russell, not Xavier. If you don't know Russell is the little boy in Up.

When we told Xavier we were going to see a movie in the theater he said "what's the movie called?" Then he answered his own questions saying "Up!" He was so excited. We explained we were going to see a new movie and he said "okay! Let's go!" He ran to the stairs to get his shoes on.

Our second try at the theater turned out to be a success. Xavier sat through the entire movie and really liked it. We had to remind him several times to just watch the movie without talking, but all in all he did great. His favorite things were being able to eat popcorn for the entire movie and the frogs. The Shadowman also made an impression on him, but he didn't get scared (which I was a little worried about at first). Tim and I give the movie a two thumbs up. It was, of course, a cute princess movie and it was very funny. The characters were really cute and it gave a new sort of twist on your typical fairytale. Good job Disney.
