Boys, and how I love them
Sunday, February 17, 2008 at 11:33AM
For this weeks Weekly Winners, I only have two pictures. The first one I meant to post on Thursday, but me and my scanner? Not the best of friends. Today I conquered that son-of-a-nutcracker.
My Valentine. My valentine that was totally, seethingly jealous that I asked you all to be mine, too. My valentine who wouldn't drop it. My Valentine who asserted his Valentiney status by
I care not. I love this boy. I mean, look at him. He's cuuuuute.
This picture was taken oh, about 5 1/2 years ago in Buckhead, GA, just outside of Atlanta on what was and still has been the only thing even closely resembling a vacation/honeymoon/break from the kids in any small way together. We had 3 days, all by ourselves, in one of the most gorgeous cities I've ever seen. We drank it in. Literally. We are so freaking snot-slinging drunk in that picture that we barely remember taking it. We had 2 little little kids, he had a fancy new job that would eventually move us to Canada, we lived in Colorado Springs, our car had almost no brakes, and the rest is history.
Next, Luca. My other BFF (there are 3, in case you are wondering) moved to Costa Rica when I was 7 months pregnant with 3of3. She wanted to teach English. She wanted to sleep with surfer-boys. She wanted to get a tan already. She has always, ALWAYS, said that she was going to have little brown babies. Well, she moved all the way to Costa Rica, met a lovely native boy with dreadlocks who couldn't speak English if you paid him to, married him, got knocked up with him, and had herself the one and only native Costa Rican white baby boy. Day seven, and he's starting to darken up. Those Detroit genes she's got in her sure are some strong ones.
Anyway, much to my shock, she asked me to be Luca's godmother. Seriously, I did NOT see that one coming. So now, she's my babies godmother and I am hers, and the circle is complete. I can't wait to meet him. Hell, I'd settle for seeing him, just she's just entirely too busy eating his wittle toes to send pictures. I do have this one, though:
Dag, yo, technology blows my mind. Picture that with his momma's Robert Plant hair and his daddy's brown skin, and eyes that are blue-but-quickly-turning-green, and you have my godson.
My GODSON.
Dudes, I am dying over here.

Sounds scrumptious. The baby, I mean. Not you husband. Cuz that would be like hitting on your husband, right? I can never figure out damn netiquette. Ok, let's start again. EVERYONE is physically attractive that is mentioned in this post.
(especially surfer boys)

That was some ultrasound. Technology has improved greatly since I was pregnant with Harley.
Nice picture of you and the hubby.
We've had one night away together without Harley since he was born. I find it funny remembering how we took those times for granted until they were gone. I miss those carefree times on occasion.
A late night dinner, drinks at a real bar and being able to hangout together out and about without having to race home.

Fabulous photo of you and your man...

How do you do it? You've got me smiling and crying in one post.
Picture #1:
You two are scrumptious. I swear to God, if you ever find yourself partying in Buckhead, I'm finding people to drop my kids on, and partying with you. Can just see it now: The four of us in Underground Atlanta, or some posh pad in Buckhead. Ohhhh the pure joy! & Lovely Lady, you are a Hottie Lady!!
Picture #2:

Congrats. Isn't it a wonderful honor to be asked to be someones Nina. My husband and myself baptized our niece last year. It is a very special title and one we love having and take very seriously. When we thought about who we wanted to be our daughter god parents we thought long and hard, because there were so many things to consider. Again Congrats!

Are you hot, mama? You sure look that way to me.
Also, that might be the first 4D in utero baby pic I've ever seen that doesn't look like a gargoyle. Seriously.

Oh, and I freaking LOVE ultrasound photos. They make me all girly and melty.

Ok, so I know there's some thoughtful stuff in here, but I'm stuck at "DAY-UM, YER HAWT!!" I've never seen a full-on real photo of you. Zoiks! Now I'm even sadder about being stood up on the 14th.
But I did notice the word Detroit. Which isn't quite where I live but darn close. (15 miles or so) So I feel like I got a little hug or something. Thanks.
