Last night, because they were filming a movie a few yards from our house (more on that later), we couldn’t park in front of our house (we park on the street.) So we decided to be brave and take the boys to IHOP for dinner.

George was stunned at how well it went. Me, not so much. I’ve taken them to restaurants with my mom and Ren and Kristina and other friends, but not as much with just the five of us. They were so good. They sat in high chairs, they colored, they ate their pancakes and eggs, and didn’t even whine when I left to go to the bathroom. It was awesome!

The movie they’re filming is a TV movie for ABC Family starring Raven Symone. It’s called Revenge of the Bridesmaids, which is the only reason I can think of why they didn’t immediately grab the boys out of the yard and stick them in the movie. I suppose there’s not much call for toddlers in this movie. Hmmm. They’ll just have to be discovered another day.

Here’s a not-so-good picture of the commotion going on.

Here’s a slightly better one George took with his phone:

Today’s my Weight Watchers meeting! I’ve been doing really well with my eating, staying on plan and everything. Even after eating at IHOP yesterday! Woo hoo! Let’s just hope the scale reflects my work. For the last two weeks, I wore jeans and a lightweight top. Today I switched to some khakis that are lighter than jeans and the same top as last week, I think. Every week my clothes will have to weigh just a litttttttle bit less than the week before. Or I’ll have to wear the same clothes every week. Hmm.

I’m still giggling at the pictures of Miles throwing Woody in the air. Here are a few more:
