Rand's first movie

Rand watched his first full-length movie last night: Wall-E. Werner had to be out late, so Rand and Ella and I made a cake and watched a movie. It was a perfect movie for him since there wasn't a scary villan, like Shere Khan or Monstro. Rand loved it and promptly asked to watch it again when the movie finished and I said that no, he couldn't watch it again tonight but perhaps tomorrow....and then tears and screaming and tantrums and a spanking followed. But the movie was lots of fun. I don't think Rand stopped talking for more than 2 or 3 seconds at a time, so it brought back great memories of watching movies with my family when I was a teenager with much younger siblings.

One of our neighbors gave Rand a huge chocolate Santa for Christmas. Rand was practically giddy just looking at it!
