Baby's Day Out

Took Keagan and Cathy for 'Herbie Full Loaded'. Some other friends joined us. The movie is about a car that has a mind of its own. I totally enjoyed it :-) Seen the previous Herbie movies when I was a kid.

A little bit about the kiddos. Keagan is not from Bangalore but his 7 year old cousin sister Cathy is. Taken her for some other kids movies... the last time Keagan was here I had taken them out for spiderman... He was 3 types... came dressed in a spiderman suit an all :-) Made me hold his sticky chocolate and then wiped his hands on me. When he wanted to go to the loo there was this huge line. He started making all these sounds that ppl allowed the little spiderman to go infront. Cathy is quiet but his antics can turn out to be contagious. Very very contagious.

Melissa wished me all the best when she handed him over to me. He has got this permanent mischievous look on his face. During the first half he ate something which according to him was pungent. They the sounds started!!! After managing to pacify him he decided to worry the person infront of us. Then suddenly he decided to walk around and ask ppl their seat numbers. Then Lindsay Lohan came on screen and he was quiet. Actually I was quiet too. The boy has quite a good memory... Remembered names from the movie even when it was just mentioned once... Was thinking quite logically too... was telling me what would happen and was always asking me 'why'... 'why did this happen' .. 'why did that happen' 'see I told you this would happen'... I tried to cover his eyes during some smooching scenes.. but he wanted to see the full movie...

After the interval the popcorn and drinks kept them occupied for some time. It became too silent.... C'mon I had come to see a movie with kids. During the final part of the movie I started quietly telling him to cheer and shout for the car. Basically I wanted to do it but am 26 years old you know :-(

Everyone has a child inside them and at some point in life they just let go of that child. They think they have grown wiser. Grow down ppl !!!!
