Finding Dory came out last week but it wasn’t until this past Thursday that we were able to go and see it as a family. No early bird screenings for us for this one. Too much going on. On Thursday we took Andrew and Eva to see Finding Dory and they both loved it. When the movie was over Andrew had like fifteen favorite parts but his ultimate favorite was the “cuddle party!” and he is so cute when he says it, too. The kids also loved Baby Dory. She was adorable! Here’s a clip.

I can certainly identify with her parents. Sometimes I think that the kids have short term “selective” memory loss. They can’t seem to remember things that I tell them all the time. I also think that our house generates pencils. No matter how many I pick up and put away there is always at least one to be found out on the floor.

For me, I think that Hank was my favorite character but the part that really got me in the gut was Dory’s parents. There is a moment in the film that shows their dedicate to their daughter that is so loving and also so heartbreaking. I don’t want to give anything away, but it is really good. I enjoyed the film a whole lot.

In addition to the clip of Baby Dory I also have some recipes and party signs that you can download. There are some cute ideas for you to make things with your little ones. Just click the image to download the file.
