Fun Saturday.... Til the end

I am enjoying not being on call this weekend, so we started off the weekend last night by eating at hilltop restaurant and going to the AHS boys basketball game. They are currently ranked 2nd in the state and were playing their first game of the area tournament. They beat straughn and will play again Monday night. We let porter stay up late, and while I was hoping that would mean he would sleep later this morning, I knew the odds were slim. We were up at 6:00, as I expected. He has been sleeping until 6:30 a lot of mornings during the week, but he takes a break from that on the weekends. This afternoon we took porter to his firstbmovie at the theater!!! We saw Knomeo and Juliet. It was a cute movie, but the bigger news is that porter made it through the whole movie and actually did pretty well!!! He made it almost a whole hour without wiggling, and then with a little candy and a few reminders to watch the movie, he settled down. Yea! I have been looking forward to this day. There have been several movies I wanted to try to take him to, but was afraid he would disrupt the entire theater. In the first 15 minutes.
Saturdays are my cheat days for my little bodybuilding contest, and I decided I was going to have popcorn at the movie, something different (not healthy) for supper and a little ice cream after supper. We decided on steaks, porter's favorite, and I fixed "tay-o's" (mashed potatoes) for the boys, but I didn't have any--until a few bites as I was putting away the leftovers. Then we went to dairy queen and I got a *mini* chocolate extreme blizzard. It was gone before we got back home. I enjoyed it for a little while, but then I started getting a headache, and feeling queasy and crampy. I am definitely paying for my cheating. I won't be cheating this much next week. I may be just adding a little more splenda and cinnamon to my sweet potato. This is yucky!
Anyway, we had a pretty great day, and I hope porter continues with greatness by sleeping all night--again!! I don want to brag to quick, but he's doing really well in his real big boy bed so far. He's slept all night 3 out of 5 nights and only gotten up once the other 2 nights.
I don't have any good pictures to post tonight. I might drag out my "real" camera tomorrow afternoon if the weather is as good as it is supposed to be. And I still have some flip video to edit.
Night night! :)
