So i'm back. The whole writing on the wall thing really got to me...or I just didn't realize it has been a month. Sorry.
Last Monday, Gretchen and I decided to take the kids out for an escape from the winter stink of the house. We decided we would take the kids to see Monsters vs. Aliens.
It was a pretty cute movie, Lauren was a little scared, but then immeditely pretended not to be because when the credits started rolling, she exclaimed..."let's do that again mom".
I thought for sure that Brooklyn wouldn't be able to handle the movie because she has been saying lately that she is afraid of monsters. I thought we would take a chance anyway.
We didn't even make it to the movie before she was frightened out of her mind...and i'm pretty sure she crapped her pants.
It was the preview for 'Land of the Lost' with Will Farrell. During the preview, there is a dinosaur that creeps up to Will's character and he is deeply breathing right behind his head...and as the preview darkens, the dinosaur does the blood curdeling growl. Well, you know how in the movies, when people get scared, the throw popcorn. That is exactly what Brooklyn did! She was holding a cup of popcorn and it went in the air..and she threw herself back in her chair and covered her eyes...all in about .035 seconds. It was the FUNNIEST thing I have ever seen. It took me about 2 minutes of laughing and crying to be able to ask her if she was o.k. So, needless to say, the movie wasn't scary at all!

That's so funny. I am picturing her throwing her popcorn in the air. Now if she can only get over being scared of sleeping at grandma's house!
