BeautyandtheBeast


Here we go, more blogging, no pictures. Maybe someday though.

Friday Addi came to spend the night. When she got here she said "Oh I should have brought some movies to watch." I said, "Grandpa has two new videos we can watch, Snow White and Beauty and the Beast; which one do you want to watch?" Her answer made me laugh, not the answer itself but how she said it. She said it so fast (about as fast as she tells the olive joke if you've heard her tell that, if you haven't you need to ask her to tell you it too.) but anyway, she was talking so fast and she clapped her hands together and was so excited as she said, "Beauty and the Beast, Diamond edition from Amy's little big world." I asked her where heard that and she said, "On Amy's little big world." ( Dah grandma, obviously, I should have known that.) I think she might have a future in infomercials.

We sat down to watch the movie, after about 20 minutes of me trying to work the blueray. About halfway through the movie it froze and nothing I did would make it work so I put in the regular DVD copy, after about 20 more minutes of trying to get the t.v. on the right input thing. (old people and modern technology, humph). Anyway, I finally got it going and we watched for a little while and Addi said, "Let's go to bed grandma." Well, after working so hard to get the movie going I wasn't about to stop watching it after only a few minutes so I told her she could lay on my lap and I would cuddle her while she slept and I watched the end of the movie. she said, "I'm not comfortable grandma." I said just lay here and rest, at which point she decided to take matters in to her own hands. She climbed down from my lap walked over and shut off the t.v. Well, what was I going to do, I could get up and turn the t.v. back on and in about 20 minutes have the movie going again or just give up and go to bed. I decided to take the easy way out so we went to bed.

I really had a great time with her, she is so cute. I had more fun watching her watch the movie than watching it myself. At one point in the movie when the wolves were chasing Belle's dad through the forest Addi got scared and grabbed my neck and climbed right up the side of me and buried her face in my neck. I kind of forget how scary some of those parts can be for a little one.

We had a great time. I can't wait until Oakley is big enough to come sleep over too and we can have twice the fun.
