One of mine and Al's new years resolutions is to spend more quality one-on-one time with the kids. One of the things we've started doing is Saturday dates once a month. We each take one of the kids and they get to do an activity of their choice with us. On Saturday Al and Carter went to the movies to see Speed Racer. They both liked the movie but when I asked Carter what his favorite part of the movie was, he quickly replied, "The Incredible Hulk preview." Sigh. Since he has never seen a superhero movie, it's hard to say where his obsession comes from. He's really disappointed that we won't let him see
Ironman or Hulk this summer. Maybe in about 5 years.
Makenna and I got lunch and then came home and played Polly Pockets and read all 3 Fancy Nancy books (her favorites!). Then I gave her a manicure and pedicure, which she thought was the greatest thing in the world. Showing off her nails:
It's so fun to see how much our kids love their individual attention from us. They do miss each other when they're apart though and are always excited to be reunited.
