Movie Night at Jacob's House

Last night, Collin went to movie night at his buddy, Jacob's, house. Jacob had a friend, Emily, that was over and spending the night because her parents were out on a date last night. The kids played for a little while in Jacob's playroom waiting for the pizza to arrive. Then, they ate pizza before it was bath time. The idea was to take a bath before the movie so they would be ready for bed after the movie...or if any one of them did not make it through the movie. ;)

All three of them took a bath together and did great. Emily was the only one that did not mind water in her face and started to pour water on Jacob's head. Neither he nor Collin like water on their head or eyes. Jacob quickly let her know that he did not like that. Otherwise, the bath was uneventful. Then, PJ dressing time was interesting. They all tried to put their PJs on. Jacob did OK except putting his underwear on backwards. Collin is still in a pull-up diaper at night, so I had to help him with this.

Each kid settled onto the couch with their favorite items. Monkey stayed home, so Collin borrowed a blanket and Mickey Mouse from Jacob. This worked fine for him. I noticed later that he snuck three little cars under the blanket with him. They settled down to watch Ice Age 3. Jacob made it through the entire movie without getting up. Emily was the first to abandon the couch and start playing with the train set that was set up right in front of the couch. Then, Colin was next. They played fairly quiet and watched the movie at the same time.

All of them were exhausted after the movie. We went home so Collin would be in his own bed for the night. It took another hour to get him to finally go to sleep. He probably dreamt of the fun he had that night over at his buddies.
