Princess and the Frog

The winner for the Wii Fit Plus giveaway will be announced tomorrow, Tuesday, Dec. 15th, so keep an eye out!

In the meantime, Baby Boo and Boo and I went to see the Princess and the Frog movie. I was so excited that finally, there was an African American princess for Baby Boo to look at and emulate!

We loved the movie but being that she is almost three, there were some parts that she said were scary. She actually jumped a few times as well.

We couldn't explain much about voodoo or spirits from beyond because that's just not something I'd want to dig into with her. That's one part that I wish had been left out.

But, she did get the basic message....someday, your prince will come. She told me how beautiful Princess Tiana is. Even as we walked out of the theater, she was smiling and saying, "I saw Princess and the Frog".

Here's the little princess!!

We saw this much anticipated movie yesterday. I thought it good, but not my favorite Disney movie. We were LOOOONG overdue for a black princess, though!
I didn't like the voodoo aspect, either, but, you know, all Disney movies have that evil character, and voodoo fit the New Orleans theme of this one. But I loved the whole "dream come true" theme, and the story of sacrifice and struggle and hard work; pretty much a Cinderella story, just a vastly different approach.
Now, will Baby Boo get the Princess Tiana doll and nightgown and backpack and tea set and kissing frogs set and...?

A friend of mine took her little ones to see this & LOVED it...now I wanna go. I may not have a little girl to take with me, but there is still a little girl IN me that loves her some Disney. ;)

Simone,

She truly is a lovely princess. I am so glad that Disney has created a movie for all little ones to feel like they too, can be princesses! The world is changing for the better in some aspects! I can only imagine what her wishes are for Christmas!

Love and Hugs ~ Kat

I imagine my girls and I will see it over the Christmas break. It'll be interesting to hear their feelings about it. Because they are older, it may not be as exciting as it would have been when they were really into the "Princesses."

Always love reading about Baby Boo! :)

My Bucket List

My twin sis and I have bucket lists. The funny thing is that they aren't literally on paper. They are in our heads. For instance, my Nay Nay called me and said, "You won 't believe what I did!  I got big girl shoes…for my bucket list." "Really? Big girl shoes?" I asked. I knew exactly what she meant. When we were born, and back in the day when braces could or should be recommended for feet that in-toed, we weren't given that joy. As a result, walking in high heels can often be a challenge. My Nay Nay decided that she was going to cross off one thing on that bucket list and found a deal of 10 pairs of heels. (Not one but 10. She went for the gusto.) Each day, she practiced walking in her big girl shoes until the moment finally came and she ROCKED those heels! Together we have decided that we WILL cross off stuff on our growing bucket lists. Some of those things are on both of our lists while others are our very own "personal" bucket lists...
