Frozen!

A very late night resulted in a late start and a grumpy little sole. We had a steady morning around the house. The children were babysat by Grandparents for a couple of hours whilst Superman and I nipped out to do some work related 'stuff.'

When we arrived back it was just after lunch time. Boy Wonder had refused his lunch and Cat Girl had opted for cake! We rectified this with the usual jam sandwiches.  Boy Wonder had been playing on Minecraft whilst we were out and was very subdued on our return. We made the decision to go out for the afternoon but as the weather was awful, had limited options. 

We decided on the cinema, to go and watch 'Frozen.' Boy Wonder seemed non fussed but Cat Girl was keen to go. We suggested that we call in at the toy shop on the way so that Boy Wonder could buy the wrestling mask that he wanted. This seemed to cheer him up! 

A brief twenty minutes in the toy shop, Rey Mysterio mask purchased and a bracelet making kit for Cat. Girl and we went off to the cinema. The cinema was busy and the trailers went on for quite a while. Just as it got to the part where the film usually starts, a Disney short film was shown about Mickey Mouse. Boy Wonder didn't like this at all. It wasn't meant to be there as it wasn't a trailer or an advert. He wasn't happy and it went on for about five minutes, five long minutes! 

The film eventually started and as usual Boy Wonder asked lots of questions throughout. What we didn't expect however, was for the King and Queen ( parents of the young starring princesses) died within the first few minutes. This wasn't great and Boy Wonder asked why this had happened ? (Which wasn't made clear in the film ) and then spent some  time squirming in his seat. This is likely to contribute to his death obsession and nightmare material! It just goes to show that we can't always protect them from their fears as much as we endeavour to. 

We arrived home and Boy Wonder played a game with Superman and then played wrestling whilst wearing his new mask. Cat Girl and I made rubber band bracelets which took some practice! 

On settling down, Boy Wonder wore his mask and talked at me for sometime about wrestling and the use of masks. What was funny though was the fact that he said that Rey Mysterio has hair like Daddy's, except for the patch! Got to love him! 

Boy Wonder settled down upstairs but so far he has been up and down stairs several times. Think it will be another late one!
