Maryam's first trip to the movies!

We took Maryam to see Monsters v. Aliens in IMAX 3D and she LOVED it! Here are Daddy and Maryam posing for a picture in front of the marque.
Here is Maryam trying to walk in holding her super HUGE glasses on her face. How lame is it that they didn't have children size glasses for a 3D cartoon? LAME.
Here is Maryam walking inside with her glasses on, but she didn't like how dark it was, so she pushed them up for a bit.

Here is Maryam sitting on Mommy's lap. She wasn't heavy enough to keep the seat down, so she sat on my lap. I think she preferred that anyway because when she got a little frightened she just turned around and gave Mommy a big hug.

Here are Maryam and Anna chatting. The sound broke about an hour into the movie so we sat around listening to the remaining crowd play Mystery Science Theater 3000. After the theater announced that they couldn't repair it and that they'd give us our money back, Maryam and Daddy ran through the theater. Maryam LOVED it! She just kept running up and down the stairs saying "go, go, go, go Maryam, go, go, go. go, go, go Daddy, go, go, go." It was hysterical.

Helping.

Helping-ISH.

Maryam at the park with Mommy

You would think that after running around in the sun for 3 hours that she would have exhausted all of her energy, nope! When we got home from San Diego I took her to the park to run out a little more. Unfortunately the lights weren't on so we had to leave before the sun went down.

Here is a picture of Maryam and Mommy before going down the big slide together.

Here is Maryam on the swing. I'm so glad that she started liking the swings. She still doesn't have strong enough muscles in her shoulders to pull herself up on many of the climbing equipment, so the swings and slides are nice alternatives.

Maryam did not want to eat dinner tonight. She threw every piece of food that I put on her tray. Finally she calmed down and just hugged on a pumpkin guy until her dinner was done. I think she just finally ran out of energy. You can see that she looks a little tired in this photo.
