Fun at the Theater

What do you do when you get to the movie theater a little too early to see your movie of choice? Sit in the theater waiting for your movie to start or go to the screening of another movie at the theater?

When was the last time you saw two movies for the price of one? Prior to today the last time I can remember was when I was a kid in Brooklyn...our trips to the movies were quite infrequent as taking 4 children to the movies can be quite a handful. I guess thats why we stayed for two!

Today, my sister in law Courtney and I were 45 minutes early to see Valentine's Day so we decided to sit in on the movie least likely to require background information an hour deep - Shutter Island. It ended up being a very engaging movie so when it came time to switch over we wanted to know what the ending was going to be! Soo after Valentine's Day was over we made a daring dash across the snackbar and snuck into a later showing of Shutter Island which happened to be at the point right where we left off! How perfect. The rush of getting caught didn't hurt either!

I love this commercial:

It's Official

Two things are official: 1-I'm pregnant and 2-baseball season is under way!

Chris and I went to our first OB appointment this past Tuesday and were bombarded by a massive amount of questions, pamphlets and information. How do you feel? What is your family history? Are you taking prenatal vitamins? Our due date is October 15th. Take more Calcium. There will be many sonograms. A visit to the OB once a month then twice a month, then once a week! Oh my! Talk about being overwhelmed and this is only the beginning. I'll be heading back to the doc March 1st for the first sonogram to make sure the baby is developing correctly and everything is going alright. Chris and I are really excited!

I can't believe how fast this off-season flew by and it’s actually been one of the longest yet. Chris packed up yesterday and flew out to Arizona today...given my hatred for packing, I'm feeling pretty good that I didn't go to spring training with him but I'll miss him. This will be the longest we've spent apart since he went to play in the world cup but now we'll be using the magic of Skype to stay connected.

That’s all for my first post...stay tuned for more
