date night

Ryan and I had "date night" tonight with the boys. I went on a date with Josiah, and Ryan went on a date with Aedan. Ryan took Aedan to Dairy Queen for an ice cream sundae. It's no surprise that he loves sundaes:) Ryan also took Aedan to Walmart to pick out a Hot Wheels car, and then to the playground in Algood. I took Josiah to see the movie 'How to Train Your Dragon'. It was a great boy movie! Josiah LOVED it, and did great. I wasn't sure about the movie...whether or not it would be too scary. (Mainly for Aedan's sake, and also deciding if Aedan would actually sit through it.) I thought it was fine for Josiah, and I think that it would be fine for Aedan as well. (I just don't think it would have kept Aedan's attention for him to sit in a theatre for the entire thing.) I debated back and forth whether or not to take Josiah, since I didn't think Aedan should go. Especially since Josiah recently got to camp out with Ryan and Aedan did not. I realized though, that even though it may seem "unfair" to Aedan...not taking Josiah simply because Aedan isn't ready isn't really "fair" to Josiah. Josiah is older, and he's capable of more. Aedan will have his chance to go to the movies in a couple months. Toy Story 3 comes out in June, and I think that it will hold his attention, and that he'll enjoy it:) It'll be fun! I'm so glad that we were able to have this night one on one with the boys before Mercy's arrival!
