So, we braved the theater. We saw Toy Story 3 this morning. Alex has watched Toy Story and Toy Story 2 for several months now so we figured he'd be primed and pumped for a new Toy Story.
We get into the theater minutes before previews start to come on and we sit on the right hand side right behind the wall for the walkway. Once we get seated, Alex seemed content. The previews started and he kept saying, "Buzz, Me Stories", which is his phrase for Toy Story. He loved the preview for the owl movie coming out and he thought some things were funny in the Despicable Me preview.
The movie got started and he got excited. I guess he was pretty content for the first 30 minutes- which is EXCELLENT! (his behavior, and the movie)- and then he got fidgety. Thankfully we did have that half wall in front of us so he could stand and walk a little bit. So glad people weren't in front of us. I also packed massive amounts of food just in case. Turns out, we needed massive amounts of food. Alex kept trying to get out of our aisle and onto the fun, lighted stairs. I kept him barricaded in with my leg. A Capri Sun caught his attention and he drank that. Then he had some fruit snacks. For a little while he was content then he wanted more fruit snacks. A little later I gave him some graham cracker cookies.
For a very rambunctious 2 year old, Alex did a very good job. He didn't want to sit in our laps (there were no 3 seats in a row available when we arrived) toward the end so he just danced and walked in our little area.
Also, glad that there were other loud, crying babies because it made Alex not stand out as much. :)
As for the movie....it was so cute! I love some of the one-liners they use.
