No matter how hard you try to give the proper amount of attention to your first-born after the baby arrives, they still feel the affect of all the change. We have been very intentional with Xander since Alaster's arrival and for the most part he is doing really good, but you can still sometimes see the difficulty he has with adjusting to all the new stuff taking place. No matter how hard we've tried to make sure he's not ignored or doesn't get enough time with us, the fact remains that he has to share our time and attention with Alaster.
With that being the case, we wanted to do something special with Xander this weekend; just the three of us. So we came up with a plan that once we got Alaster to sleep and in his crib that we would build a fire and watch a special movie with Xander. Thankfully, earlier in the week a very cool move came out on Blu-Ray.

| This is great Blu-Ray; we all had an awesome time watching it. |
Lightning and Mater are two of his favorites, so we cuddled up on the floor with our pillows, blankets and Teddy to watch the show. The Blu-Ray has 9 hilarious adventures of Mater and Lightning. It was fun to watch Xander having such a great time and it was even better to let him have us all to himself for the night.

| Xander and Daddy are ready for Movie Night. |
 |
| We took an intermission in the middle of the feature to have some pumpkin pie. For some reason (and we still don't know why) Xander wanted us to all sit on the floor in the kitchen to enjoy our dessert. |
 |
| He scarfed down his so fast we almost didn't get a picture of him enjoying it. If you look close, you can see how much he loves the pumpkin pie by how he's curling his big toe...too cute. |
 |
| He was having a great time and climbed up on Mommy's lap to give her a big kiss. |
 |
| He just so darn cute that it's hard sometimes to quit taking pictures, especially when he's holding so still. |
