I can’t believe my babies are 3! We’ve made it through the “Terrible 2’s” and have now entered the “Troublesome 3’s”, which all the mommy blogs seem to agree is way worse: they’re still irrational and spontaneous, but with a heaping dose of belligerence and deviousness. Yay! More backtalk! And Evan tried to eat his candle :P That kid puts sand in his mouth every time we go to the park, and every time he gets upset and drools it all over himself… not sure what to do about that.
We got a chance to see ‘How to Train Your Dragon 2′ and it was great! Sam said the whole thing was his “favourite”. There were some parts I thought might be a bit much for him but he said even the sad bits were his favourite and didn’t seem to have any issues. We went with some friends who have a slightly older boy and I guess he understood what happened better than Sam did as he was a little upset… or Sam’s just dense :) He did sit through most of the movie folded up in the seat. The plus side is we got to draw some fan art together :)
Vote incentive: Astrid totally rocks and Sam is a big Toothless fan. I should scan his drawings; he even asked me to show him reference images for each character before he drew them :)
