Henry's Hamburgers

Yesterday I took the girls and myself down the street to our hairstylist to get gussied up for our TV appearances. The TV folks were great, the interviews ok... but I am left with the regret of having said too much and not enough at once.

Yep, it's a little like blogging in that way. That oversharing sort of a way. Only I cannot go back in and edit any of it. That's a crying shame too... because at the last, when I they asked me if I could go back in and handle any of it differently, I responded in a way that I wish I had tempered with more gratitude for the awesome, dedicated and concerned doctors that we had along the way in figuring out what was up with Pearl. I am hoping they edit in such a way that I come off as less of a harridan.

Back to the hair. My friend who does my hair has a little girl who is just a month older than Pearl, but far more articulate. No one seems to know where she got it, but she started calling Henry's fat rolls on his thighs, his "hamburger's," a term I find screamingly apt. They LOOK like the fat and delicious layers of sandwich that make a good hamburger.

My friends, I invite you to enjoy....

HAMBURGERS!



And how's about a yummy serving of the whole thing!

He is a hunka hunka adorable baby! Want to gently squeeze his thighs and kiss his cheek! Ok, I will go do that to my baby right now (she also has some hamburgers of her own)

Hah! I love when little kids stumble upon these perfect expressions. Those are totally munchable little feet. Am curious about the TV thing, BTW — how'd they find you? Will you let us know when it's on so I can harass someone with cable to record it for me?

Get this... they found me through this here bloggity. The program is supposed to come on near the end of summer, and I will certainly be advertising it to all of my friends and family.

Sadly, I have no cable either, and will be conscripting someone into taping it for me as well.

Or maybe the tv folks will send me a copy?

That is so cool. Blogging is cool.

I'm sure you were fantastic and the editing will be great.

Mmm... Hamburgers. I'll take the whole thing though. :)
