Since I'm off from work for a couple of weeks for the holidays, I decided to spend some quality one-on-one time with Cruz and took him to see his very first movie at the theater. Being the cautious child that he is, I had waited until I was sure that he would not only sit through an entire movie but also enjoy it. And to further err on the side of caution, the movie we watched was Monsters, Inc. which he has seen numerous times on DVD already. I figured we'd at least have familiarity on our side. So the day after Christmas, we headed over to our local movie house, along with Cruz's buddies Doren and Sam. As we waited in line for tickets, he hugged me excitedly and said "thank you for bringing me to the movies Mommy!" Such a sweetheart.
Here he is after getting his ticket checked at the entrance.
Although he has never been to the theater before, he somehow knew that an essential component was popcorn (he is his father's son), and reminded me repeatedly about this on our way to the theater. I bought him the smallest size, but when placed on his lap it looked so much bigger!

Lots of popcorn!

The previews were a little scary in some parts apparently

Cruz and his friends had a great time and he loved the whole experience. He already told me about the next movie he wants to see. I was reminded again at how quickly my little boy is growing up - by leaps and bounds!
