It's been seven months, but we finally managed to get to see a movie in the cinema yesterday, and it was Inception. The reason for our movie watching sabbatical was, of course, Alexander. We always went together before, so we haven't been since. Until yesterday. But having a 7 month old meant we were experiencing one more new thing; the 'Movies for Mommies' (and Daddies and babies) showing. What a ride! Before the movie started we had our photo taken for free by a professional photographer and had taken part in a free baby aerobics/ sing along session.
And then the movie started... I don't know if it was the plot or the constant background baby noises, (including the small child whose head appeared unexpectedly next to me from behind when he wedged it between the seats) but I was slightly struggling to keep up. Having to change Alexander's diaper half way through probably didn't help either, although we did this by laying him on our laps rather than leaving the room. Anyway, although slightly confused by the end, I thought it was a fantastic movie and I really enjoyed it. Then again, after a seven month drought, I fear I may have thought the same about Sex and the City 2.
