Potty's, Movies, Slushies.....OH MY!!!

So I decided this weekend to get very adventurous and took Nico to see his first at a movie theater, and although I was ready to go by myself....I definitely was glad to have my Mom come along for the ride not knowing what to expect. I thought Monsters VS Aliens was playing and had psyched him out all week about going to the movie only to find out it was Ice Age 3, and he was OK luckily! We had been doing awesome with the potty training but thought better put on a pull-up just in case don't want any accidents....so we got our tickets and even though Mommy was semi-prepared with Nico's favorite snacks he saw the slushie machine and had to have a slushie!! So we waited in the mile long line for a slushie, and not just a small slushie but the biggest slushie you could imagine for an almost 3 year old! And the cashier looks at me and says upgrade to a large for .25 cents...really I said, I think one to large slushie is enough for my little guy! Then we were off to find our perfect seat and since we were a little late because who wants to sit there for a million years thinking this was a 1 1/2 hour movie we sat pretty close to the front but of course since Nico is over 3 feet tall he was perfect while Mom and I hunched down!


So of course drinking his slushie and ewe and awing and laughing louder than he should have, he says "Mommy, I have to go potty!!" and I am thinking OK here we go he does this all the time, he says he has to go and he never does but OK lets go so we shrink down and off we go in the dark movie theater. We get to the potty sit down and it's a miracle NICO GOES POTTY!!!! Now at home he goes potty all the time but this is the first time in a public place (not even thinking how gross it is) he went potty!!!! I was so excited and I am sure if anyone else was in the bathroom, they knew too! So we went back and he lasted until the last few minutes before the movie was over, in which he said he had to go again and we went home to a bowl of ice cream with Grandpa waiting for us!
It was a great time for all and actually a pretty cute movie, which makes me want to rent Ice Age 2 since I have never seen it!!!

Until our next adventure.......
