i wanted him to win SO desperately before he retired.

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT

i have a public apology to make:

last night my wonderful, beautiful, slim, witty, kind, intelligent, caring, optimistic, hilarious, gracious mother gave us tickets, HER tickets, her FRONT FREAKING ROW tickets, to the jazz game. she was supposed to take matt, but at the last minute gave them to us so we could go out and have a date together. we felt bad, for like a second, and then took 'em and ran. we had a fabulous night--dinner before the game, amazing seats, and a good game. then the bomb dropped. i was caught. caught clapping for the thunder. did i want them to win? no. do i hate people who boo and hiss at the opposing team? yes. unless it's the lakers. so, i clapped when they made a good play. my mom happened to see this clapping on tv (yes, i was on tv. i'll sign autographs later) and called matt to warn me that my next ticket, my ticket for the boston game (ie: my chance to gawk and gaze and shaq for like 2.5 hours) was on the line. so i did what anyone would do. i clapped lower so she couldn't see me. like a fool. she saw me. and now my ticket is on the line. so, in an effort to get that ticket back:

mother dear,

i apologize from the depths of my soul for supporting the opposing team and therefore shifting 100% of my jazz dedication to the thunder. it was a foolish thing to do and it won't happen again (until i'm clapping my ass off for shaq). i will support the jazz with all of my being for the rest of the season and the rest of their existence. please forgive me my flaws and, if at all possible, find it in your kind, loving, wonderful being to take me to the boston game.

sincerely,

jessi

drum roll, please

no seriously. drum roll. before i tell you that...we're having another girl! i thought for sure it was going to be a boy simply because i wanted a girl (ie: i have girl stuff. and really, what would i do with a little pecker in my house?!). we couldn't be happier. everything appears to be great and healthy and, when it comes down to it, that's all that really matters. especially since the kiddo i've already got is freaking sick. rsv. double ear infections. NOT a happy camper. cest la vie. or something.

that's it.

unless you have any rad girl names you'd like to share--since we have NOTHING!

xoxo

nada

i'm getting threatening emails nagging for a blog update. so, here's what we've been up to:

1.) waiting for february 28--when i'll be front and center for shaq kicking the jazz's ass (literally, front row baby)

2.) growing belly (genet wants to know why i'm getting fat)

3.) skylar breast feeding her babies

4.) matt working 1.5 jobs and going to night school (ie: we never see him)

5.) trying to figure out how to switch up our furniture for the impending arrival of the new baby (and wondering how i'm going to get skylar to sleep in a twin bed without use of a straight jacket)

6.) scheduling an ultra sound soon to find out gender of said new baby

7.) eating a lot of candy (i'm going to birth a sugar baby. seriously)

8.) enjoying my kindle

9.) wondering why skylar loves to wear a mustache

i guess that's it.

hopefully something exciting will happen soon so our posts won't be so friggin' lame.

adios bitches.

NBA All-Ugly Team

It is that time of year. The Eagles have disappointed me once again by making me think they have it in them to make it to the Super Bowl and then losing in the first round of the playoffs. Thus my attention gets 100% focused on the NBA. Here is this years installment of the NBA ALL-UGLY TEAM. Enjoy!

First up we have, Pau Gasol of the L.A. Lakers. Something about bearded Spaniards...

Next up, Kosta Koufus. Former First-Round pick of our beloved Utah Jazz. He (and his nose) were spotted shooting a Proactive commercial in Hollywood last month. You can hardly see his Acne!

Third we have Marquis Daniels. He now plays for the Boston Celtics, you have to actually watch a game to see how handsome this fella is. FEMA uses his forehead as an emergency heli-pad.

Next up, Joakim Noah of the Chicago Bulls. He is actually one of my favorite players in the NBA, but man is he attractive!

Last is Marc Gasol of the Memphis Grizzlies. He is on the list because he was "Blessed" with the same great looks of his brother Pau. Lucky guy.

happy new year

...and merry christmas...

we're a little behind on posting. i blame the fact that: i've had a "special" relationship with the toilet (thank you first trimester), matt's been working like crazy, and skylar doesn't blog (she's so lazy).

we had a great holiday and spent a lot of time with family for parties and celebrations. i failed to take many pictures, surprise surprise, but here are some of the festivities:

christmas eve jammies.

my mom got a "pajama gram" and it was, as she's ALWAYS

cold, footie, hoodie, fleecie jammies.

she bounced around the corner like a sexy bunny.

big man panties for matt.

christmas morning loot.

we spent the morning in park city for breakfast and presents, and then the afternoon at the olsen's for lunch and presents. apparently we only show up if there's food. kidding.

...

new years.

we partied like old farts, til 10:30, in park city, and then retired to bed. we played games and hung out. good food, good times, no pictures.

we spent the afternoon in charleston on news years day and played in the snow. it was friggin' cold. as in, -4. bleck.

seriously my ALL TIME FAVORITE pic of skylar and my cute brother.

and that's it. we can't believe 2010 is gone, but are ready for 2011 (like we have a choice). if i was sentimental or thoughtful, i'd ring in the new year with some great post recapping our year and preparing for the future. but i'm lazy and tired. so, there you have it.

xoxo

tis the season

love the temple square lights...and so did skylar.

wish someone could've pushed me around all bundled up.

oh well.

xoxo
