Mom Camp Day 18: Despicable Me!

The Captain was sick today and spent the whole day in bed–poor lovey!  So, I was left with the two munchkins. The plan was to hit the pool for the day, but it seems the weather was a bit cloudy with a chance of meatballs.  Thus, indoor activities took over!

Okay so, I kinda over did it with TV and movies but what are hot, humid, rainy days for if you cannot watch too much TV?

I ran off to a Bikram yoga class while the kiddos watched .

Then a quick shower, quick lunch and off to Despicable Me 2.  The kids really love the minions– although they call the characters the be-doe-be-doe-be-does.  If you have seen the preview for the second movie, you know what I am talking about.   Until about 2 weeks ago, the kids had never seen the first Despicable Me.  I thought it seemed a bit violent.  But I borrowed the movie from a friend and they LOVED it.  Plus, they loved the be-d0e-be-d0e-be-doe preview, so I caved!

After the movie we made our own little minions.  I thought painting wine corks would be a good idea and Cinco thought covering them in construction paper was a better idea.  I have to agree– his idea won!
