Yay for Cristin coming over to watch Pink Floyd’s The Wall with me! 
Here’s Henry helping us cook.
And yay for the yummy dinner we made – chicken, rice and mushroom casserole!
As usual when Cristin comes over, she got to help with Henry’s bath and bedtime routine. We took some liberties with this photo.
Thank goodness Henry came early! It meant that Cristin and I got to keep our Labyrinth date at the Colony. Hoooray for popcorn and beer!!!
Cristin was super excited and blogged about her preparations here and here.
We had a terrific time, forgoing our usual dinner at The Bull and Bear for more face time with Henry.
Look how freaking cute we three are.
Cristin has lovingly documented our experience here. Read her post – it’s good stuff.
Here are a few of my fave scenes from the movie:
We pranked the Colony!
If you’ve been keeping up, you might know that The Colony is showing LABYRINTH as part of their Cool Classics series. Unfortunately, they picked March 19th, four days after my due date.
So Cristin and I have been lobbying for them to move the date. Sadly, they haven’t budged. On Wednesday, we went to see The Great Muppet Caper and we decided to practice a litle civil disobedience. We took these clever little signs that Cristin made and hung them in the bathroom. Cuz we’re crazy like that!
For more on our little caper, check out Cristin’s much-more detailed post.
CRISTIN IS THE. COOLEST. EVER. EVER. EVER. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Check out the news story!!

Cristin came over for dinner on Monday night for a Bowie movie-fest, sort of. I was thinking we’d watch the DVD commentary on Labyrinth, but instead we watched several of the “making of” docs.
And then I ran around for like an hour copying some CDs for her while she played on the computer and entertained the cats. And then we watched the first 30 minutes of The Hunger, which is not really very good, not to mention we watched the ancient VHS copy-of-a-copy I own that is very bad quality. But we got to see cute, young David Bowie in the shower scene, so woo-hoo for us! We were up too late but it was fun indeed!!
I made us dinner, sauteed chicken with a lemon-rosemary sauce served with rice and scalded green beans. Yummers!
And Cristin brought over some awesome and chocolatey ice cream cupcakes from Maggie Moo’s. I ate two because I am unstoppable.
And the cats seemed content to amuse us with their funny sleeping positions.
We’ve started getting baby gifts!
This is the first gift we got for the baby, from a co-worker. She took great pains to say the name several times – it sounds funny!!
It’s a lovely, soft blanket in bright colors from IKEA. Yay!
Then Cristin gave me Toby socks!!!!! What can I even say? LOVES!!!!!!!
And my friend Alba sent me this adorable fleece poncho from Colombia, along with some soft fuzzy socks for me and coffee for Dave. She thought of the whole family, I’m impressed!
And last, but totally not least, is this ADORABLE sock-cat from Ali. 1) Whoever thought to make a sock-monkey in cat form was SMRT. 2) I think someone’s going to have to start giving me synonyms for “adorable” at some point in the near future.
Thank you all!!!!
