Shrek the Third

Friday, May 18, 2007 will go down in history for Manny (if he remembers it in years to come, if not, at least it will go down in his baby book). Manny attended his first movie-theater movie, Shrek III. He L-O-V-E-D IT! On the way to the theater, he repeated over and over, "Shrek, Fiona, Donkey". He was also very excited at the prospect of getting to eat popcorn and m&m's.

As we were standing in line for tickets, the lady in front of his was commenting (rather loudly) that she hoped that there wouldn't be any kids in the movie running around and talking through the whole thing. I asked her which movie she was going to see, she replied, "Shrek". I looked at her for what seemed like an eternity and replied, "It is a kids movie, you know". She just kind of looked at me like I was crazy. Of course, she was in the same theater as we were and she made it known several times throughout the movie that she did not appreciate the four year olds running up and down the aisles. **As a side-note, I remember this lady from my Kmart service desk days as one of those people that drives me nuts. When she would walk through the door, we would all roll our eyes.

Anyway, Manny had a great time and actually watched the whole movie! YAY!!

Manny's new sleeping positions

Ever since Manny has been sleeping in a "big boy" bed, we find him in the funniest positions. We have been able to catch a few of these positions on camera.

Sometimes he is kneeling on the floor:







Sometimes he is half-way on his bed and half on the floor:








I have no idea how he sleeps like this. Sometimes we will even find him on the floor right next to his bed.

Manny's new house

We finally got a new dishwasher and I decided to decorate the box for Manny to play in. He loves it...Grandpa does too.

Since I am in the blogging mood....

Might as well keep going.

Manny has signed up for soccer this year. It is will kids ages 2-6. He was super-excited to start and then when we get there, he just wanted to look at the tractors. He was too funny. Uncle Phil hopes that football will be Manny's sport anyway :)

Discovering Old Summer Toys

Well, we have finally had some nice weather and been able to get outside and play.

Manny had forgotten about his wagon of summer toys until we found it in the shed.

He kept saying, "wow, wo-o-o-w" over everything.











He was pretty cute, now he always asks, "owside?" when he wakes up in the morning.
