Tids-N-Bits - 16

OH MAN - IT'S COLD!!!!

So, I rarely get to watch movies anymore...it somehow interferes with Z's Noggin - and well, that can't happen.

I bought The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe when it came out on dvd over a year ago. I finally got to watch it a couple of weeks ago....and I LOVED IT!!! I thought it was a bit violent for kids but I thought the costumes and animation were great! And I LOVED Aslan!!!! He was beautiful!!! And since he represents Jesus, I guess he should be!

So, last week I bought Prince Caspian when it came out. Friday night I bowled and when I brought Z home he was sound asleep....so I watched it Friday night. I really liked it too....not as much as the first movie, but it was still good. And Caspian was kinda cute....I mean, I know I'm old enough to be his...Aunt. But I still know cute when I see it.

And...is it just me, or does the guy who plays Peter look a LOT like Heath Ledger did in A Knight's Tale????? If there is ever a movie done about Heath Ledger's life....and you know there will be....then this guy should play him!

Zander slept in Saturday morning until 10:30.....that is the latest he has slept EVER!!! Which means, that is the latest I have gotten to sleep in in over 2 years!!! Ok, I got up at 10:00....but I'm still a lazy butt!
Sunday he slept until 9:30.....I love this kid!!!!

I started reading The Host by Stephenie Meyer this weekend. I'm only 4 chapters in, but so far it looks like it will be pretty good. I got this book from Mamahut probably 4 months ago....so Tricia @ Hippie Family will probably be relieved because she gets it when I'm done.....I believe she's already got someone waiting in the wings to read it when she's done too.....we're just spreadin' the Stephenie Meyer love....
Speaking of Stephenie Meyer.....Tricia and I are supposed to go see Twilight tonight finally.....yaaay!!!!!
******
I'm only working 2 1/2 days this week.....then I'm off the rest of the week. I love saving a lot of my vacation time for December...I don't know what it is about this month....but I don't want to work! I actually think I would hibernate if that was socially acceptable.

Chronicles of Narnia was one of my kids favourite films, not as popular with them as Shrek, but rated right up there alongside...

Connie said...

Love those late mornings! Mine are old enough to get themselves breakfast now ... even better!
Have a great week on vacation. I have been sluffing off the past few weeks so I need to get focused to make it through this week.

Susie said...

Sounds like you have a great week planned. Hopefully, Z will sleep in late a couple times this week for you:-)

Shannon said...

I liked the 1st Narnia movie much better than the 2nd one. The 2nd movie was still pretty good...

Hope you like Twilight... some people love it and some have been disappointed with it. I loved it.

Enjoy your time off! My hubby is taking of Dec 19th... through JANUARY 4TH. This is also winter break for the kids, so I'll have no alone time FOR 17 DAYS.

Help me now.

Porgie has never slept that late. NEVER. And I am fairly convinced that she never will.

Hope the rest of your week is relaxing:)

I've got Prince Caspian in my DVD player right now and it didn't hold my attention! Have you read The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins yet?? It's as good as Twilight. Seriously.

Jennifer said...

I haven't seen the movie--but rememberthat hilarious video on NL w/ Andy Samberg--that alway cracks me up!

I'm glad Z slept so well--hope he keeps it up!!

Is it a full moon or something? My little one has been sleeping until 9 for about the past week. This is 2 hours later than his usual! Can I get a Woot-Woot! LOL
