Until these DVDs have homes, we have been busy watching half of them in our bedroom. We are SERIOUSLY loving the TV in our room even though I always swore I wouldn't have one. Just might be changing my tune. Most recently, we've been going through Back to the Future - I and II. III might or might not be on for tonight. But last night over dinner (at our new island which I love eating at vs on the floor in front of the coffee table like we've been doing for the past MANY months...) Terry told me one of the greatest stories EVER. He said that Back to the Future I was the first movie he ever saw in the theatre, and he remembers being so excited to see it. He went with his brother Chris, and he said he was so pumped that he dressed up for it. In his teal suit that he wore to church. (Got a good mental image of my then blonde curly headed 6 year old husband in a teal suit?)* I don't really know if I'm allowed to tell the rest of this story....Let me back-track to tell you about a radio show I listen to on Friday mornings. It's relevant, promise. Friday mornings there is a movie review on 107.9 that I always listen to. One of the things the guy does is tell you what size drink you should/can get at the movie. You know, if it's a great movie that you don't want to have to leave to go to the bathroom for, you maybe shouldn't get a drink at all; but if it's an okay movie that you can miss parts of, go ahead and get refills on that large Coke. (But never look up the amount of calories or sugar you just took in). Well...let's just say that Terry's love of and dedication to movies started this day and he might have gotten that large Coke with refills...but he never left the theatre to go to the bathroom. Somehow, this makes me adore him even more - and hey, at least I know he is committed - but I may have to regulate how many drinks he brings to bed with him tonight as we get ready to watch Back to the Future III...* Correction from the hubs: "I was seven and I didn't have blonde hair anymore. Just want to get the facts straight."

Oh, I hear you, Woman. About the movies AND the moving in.
We moved into this house (the shoebox) a month before Rylie was born. It was still unfinished. I think we did her room first so there would some amount of sanity, but it was a VERY long time before everything got a second coat of paint.
In trying not to make him too upset with me, I don't know that I made it clear enough that just because he didn't LEAVE to go to the bathroom didn't mean he didn't go...
Kate, do you feel any more ready for babe #2 even though you've been living there 2.5 years?? I wonder if I will next time around - prolly not!
Had to tell you... there's a women in my neighborhood who moved in and gave birth one week later... I had to determine whether or not she planned it that way or if the moving caused an early birth! Either way - it was craziness. Glad you all are getting settled before BB(Baby Bruce) gets here :-)
