Logans First Movie Theatre Visit

Well Regal has free movies over the summer so now that Logan is five I figured it was his chance to take the movie test. You may wonder what the movie test is. Well ever since, well I have no idea for how long, I have decided that I was never going to bring a child that is to young to the movies. The last thing I am going to do is waste money, and two hours of my time with a whiny or worse yet screaming kid. So we decided to go to the free movie. Now granted the movies are free so they are not current but since they are in the Regal Cinemas you get the movie theater experience - $20 popcorn and soda, and nice rocking and reclining chairs which made me happy. And did you know they have booster seats at the movie theater? I didn't, see I never bring my kids. So we saw the Rugrats Movie. When we started walking into the theater it was very dark and just had the floor track lighting as we made the sharp turn and Logan was scared he said "what is going to happen next" I said nothing there is just going to be chairs to sit in. Logan was better behaved than 99.9% of the kids in the theater. The other .1% of the kids that were better than Logan were my other two kids Brendan and Emily that came with us and that was only because we told them that if they talked during the movie there were never coming again. Apparently they believed me.

Well the kids job is complete, so Dylan, Amanda, Meghan, and David are back to their usual driving me crazy and the begging to sleep over various peoples houses and for things. The kids also think everyone else in the world has it better than them. Right now Dylan wants to buy a hot tub. After some research on line and discovering that your electric goes up quite a bit from a hot tub I told Dylan that he cannot get one unless he gets someone to pay the difference. Now it is not that I am being a bitch but we live in a large home where our bills run around $1,000 in the winter and $250 in the summer so I would notice it when it went up. He is trying to convince me that we are the only family in Burnt Hills that does not have a hot tub and if he does not get one he will not fit in. Then Amanda starts harrassing me about her hair, she just had her haircut about three weeks ago so for my back to school budget I figured she could wait to get hers done, she started complaining about why do the boys get to have theirs done but the girls have to wait saying it was no fair. She is mad because she did not have enought cut off, even though we told her what to say, well she did not listen.

Right now I am sitting on my bed in my 12 x 14 and there are eight people in my room. TJ is sleeping on my floor. Talk about no room at the Inn, and no air to breathe, lol.
