Mommy the Brave

We have these great movie theaters here in Austin called Alamo Drafthouse. Every Tuesday at the location close to our house they do "Baby Day"...which is the first showing of each movie that day. All infants are welcome.

I don't know what got into me today - but I decided that Abby and I needed to go see a movie. We've never taken her anywhere like that and especially not for that long! But off we went.

The movie was 120 minutes long. Of which I bounced her in my arms at the back of the theater (face towards the screen of course) for approximately 100 minutes. My arm still hurts.

But that's what I get for taking a fussy baby with me to see a movie. :) But I didn't care...it was BABY DAY! And we needed to get out of the house.

What I didn't understand was the amount of people watching the movie sans babies. I think those people were the brave ones. I started to feel a little bad for them when one of the babies in the audience would let out a wail (OK - that was mainly Abby) but then I thought...it's BABY DAY...why were they there?

Maybe we'll try again next week too!
