SHOW US YOUR (NOT)HOTNESS!!!
Girls! Guys! Didn't make the Hottest Blogger Calendar?
DEADLINE MONDAY 9/22 5:00 PM EST
Neither did we!
Here's your LAST CHANCE to show the blogosphere what you've got!
Dig up your Hottest or NotHottest photo.....send us an email with a photo, your blog address and a small post on WHY YOU'RE HOT (or why you're Not Hot). (Please just email ONE of us )
It can be a photo from now, or Back in the Day. Tell us your "likes" and "dislikes"....be creative!
There's no voting! If you're a blogger, you're in! Unless of course, you're offensive, conceited, or you just rub us the wrong way, then we'll totally delete you. :)
Is there going to be a real calendar? Of course not! We don't have that kind of time ....or cash......or influence......It's a "Virtual Calendar", people! Consider it a consolation prize to You: The Not Quite Hot Enough.
DEADLINE MONDAY 9/22 5:00 PM EST
Bring it on!!!!!!!
HAPPY HOUR SUE

McMommy for Miss July
Oh, so I wasn't QUITE HOT ENOUGH for you, hmmmm?!?
See,That's what happens you play by the rules.
Next time, screw the rules.
I'm breaking out my super secret weapon:
My "At Least I was Hot Six Years Ago on my Honeymoon" picture.
Because as everyone who's anyone knows, your honeymoon pics are as good as your hotness will ever get. (heh, heh....just jokes, McDaddy....it's going to get better..uh, yeah! It is! Promise!.....sorta......)
View it and weep for your loss:
McMommy
Likes: pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and McCommenters
Dislikes: cold weather, the word "nub", and backfat.

"Hotness" is in the eye of the beholder, I suppose.
I, too was a big loser in The Hot Blogger Calendar competition. I guess others just didn't find me "hot" so.....
I have been reevaluating and thinking about what other people might think is hot.....
CHEERLEADERS....
lots of fantasies, right - they got to be hot! OK, so that was a million years ago.
REDHEADS - they're hot, right?
OK, I'm not a redhead- that was a wig and I was drunk.
.
Yeah, maybe the Not Hot Calendar is where I belong.
Likes: Karaoke, disco, gay men, CNN, Midori, coffee and laughing
BACK TO BARNWELL
OK, so Happy Hour Sue compared me WAIT - WHAT? to an Abercrombie model, although I never even got nominated for Hot Blogger Calendar!
Maybe I'm just NQHE because of my non-ability to keep rhythm, or because I try so hard to be a thug rapper, but just look like a drunk slurring his speech, and dumb enough to give HHS and McMoms this link. Who knows?
Likes: Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka, Being rubbed down with tanning oil, Jesus, freestyling and, um, working out.
Dislikes: working out, secrets, bwell (shhhh) and tele-evangeleists (another shhh).
Blog: Back to Barnwell
JOY
Okay so in this picture, I'm a little young! Or at least I look younger than I actually was. I'm 19 and I let my Goth Girlfriend do my makeup and hair!!! I was one sexy girl. I turned the heads of many men, young and old. And now all they do is turn the other way... *SIGH*
My second picture is a sleep-deprived Momma of two. So what if it was a snapshot of my new, glossy haircut? This ol' girl just ain't what she used to be!
Likes: chocolate, reading, uninterrupted showers, hiking, SHOPPING
Dislikes: disrespect, beef stroganoff (GAG), jelly bellies and people who know they have jelly bellies but still wear midriffs, the ocean

I'm so HOT that people didn't think it was fair to even nominate me, otherwise no one else would have had a chance.(That's my story and I'm sticking to it)
I mean, come on, it just doesn't get any hotter than this...

I'd like to think that I'm just not hot enough to win the Hot Blogger Calendar. Nope, I'm not hot enough to even be *nominated* for the Hot Blogger Calendar.
Which is why this little thing you're doing is being received with a high-pitched squeal and lots of fist-pumping from my Ego.
Here's me, at what was most likely the apex of my hotness (or nothotenoughness):
And me again, clearing up all confusion about the nothotenoughness:
Likes:
Cheap wine, getting the front parking spot at Target, fried foods, laughing with my husband, "More Than A Feeling" by Boston, my kids' quick wits, my Mom-friends and fellow bloggers, when I blowdry my hair.
Dislikes:
Cheap wine hangovers, getting my receipt at Target, having the belly of someone who loves fried foods, when my husband doesn't laugh at my jokes, "Brown Eyed Girl" by Van Morrison, my kids' quick wits, the other moms at my kids' school, when my friends don't read my blog, blowdrying my hair.
And now, I'm off to celebrate my nothotenoughness with some of that wine I was talking about...

Alrighty, here goes!
Apparently, I wasn't included in the HOT Blogger Calendar (or aware of it for that matter, maing me SO not hot by default), so here's my backlash at what could have been!
Musician Mommy
Yes, this is from a professional modeling shoot. No, it did not get me any jobs. =P
Likes: Music, drinking, and the rare moments I can be something OTHER than MOMMY or the WIFE.
Dislikes: Bad karaoke bars, people who constantly try to "one-up" you, and people that wear clothing 3-4 sizes too big OR too small.

You know I really thought I had a chance at that whole Hot Blogger thing - I mean I'm a pretty good looking girl, even if people do think I'm 12 sometimes (try double that plus one, people, geez).
But anyway, I sat and I waited, and I waited and I sat, and you know what? The call never came. Or the nomination. Whatever. Was I supposed to nominate myself??
That seemed conceited and maybe like too much effort. So after a looong time went by and I never joined the ranks of hotness (or NQHEness apparently) like McMommy or Happy Hour Sue, I decided that I never wanted to be in that dumb old calendar anyway. I don't need the Blogging World to tell me that I'm hot. The evidence speaks for itself.
In closing, please please please please please don't leave me out of this one, too! I promise I'll be hotter, I mean tone down my hotness so others don't feel bad, I mean pay (who am I kidding I totally won't pay). I promise World Peace.

I was just told by an Immigration officer at the border who was holding my license that I looked good for my age. Being hungover sans makeup, I ate it up.
I don't know if I'm hot, but I am "cool".
Likes: Wilco, John Cusack, couch-surfing, hoppy micro-brewed beer (you could call me Hoppyhourmom).
Dislikes: narrow-minded people, John Cusack's girlfriend, cheap American beer.
And...I was so into Cusack before Bossy.

I just KNEW it was not fair to sign up for the Hottest Blogger Calendar. I didn't want to be the ONLY person getting votes, right? RIGHT?!
Okay- who am I kidding. I would be thrilled with just a single vote (besides my husband, of course).
Likes: my kids, my husband, heck- my whole darn family, a good book, a clean house, blogging, blog hopping, and well- money.
Dislikes: Other people's kids, my sister's ex-husband, a bad book, laundry, dishes, cleaning the bathroom, oh who am I kidding, CLEANING ANYTHING, and not having money.

Too hot for the calendar? I think so.
This photo was taken a few weeks ago at a concert. Never a good sign to see the tacky owgirl hat come out. Too much wine. Methinks I am hotter than I am at this point and that accessories add to my hotness.
Likes: clean diapers, nap time, movies sans-children
Dislikes: poopy diapers, traveling husband, people who stare when my toddler throws a fit

Likes: Champagne (not my fault-it’s genetic. Runs in the family, ask my grandmother. All our women are afflicted with this horrible disease) , being driven around, fantasizing what I’ll do with all the money I win next week with my Lotto ticket, musing on how I would be such a benevolent dictator for a (very) small country somewhere in South America…
Dislikes: BAD champagne, having to sit in traffic surrounded by idiots that don’t understand the concept of “Do Not Block the Intersection-You Are Not Going Anywhere Anyway!”, when my four year old daughter says to me, “Mama, you can’t wear those shoes to the party!” and she’s right.

Because doesn't everyone look hot eating an In N Out burger in their bridesmaid dress?
I'm so far off the hot calendar that I didn't even see my name in the list of 517 bloggers.
The hottest people/bloggers/mommies are the ones who can laugh at themselves, own who they are and exude confidence even in the worst of PMS and pregnancy.

AUDS AT BARKING MAD
Aloha ladies!
The first photo exhibits true hotness as I'd just pulled an ALL NIGHT ON AIR shift at KUBEfm in Seattle, and my lipgloss was still perfectly shiny and my hair, oh my hair! I'd pay to have that hair again! If I do so say myself, I looked pretty damn good for having been on the air from 12AM to 6AM!
And the next sad illustration of my total lack of any temperature whatsoever comes from a little trip we took to Salem. MA when the Little Imp was about 10 months old (not quite two years ago). Notice the smeared mascara under my eyes, my total lack of any hair style whatsoever, and the bland yellow blouse in the shot? The baby was the only one sporting ANY style whatsoever. And I think, if you look closely, you can see the remains of chewed cheerios in my hair. Years of breastfeeding, co-sleeping, sleep deprivation, reading the same story over and over and over again, and now sending one of my 18 year olds off to college, have taken it's toll.

MOMMY MO
I wasn't even nominated for the calender so you guys are one step ahead of me.
I could lie and say I was HOT way back when, like in high school but let's be honest, I wasn't. And that's OK, really....I am fine with that. I never knew what a great body I had back then until later in life, where I could only dream of being 120lbs. Come to think of it, if I got down to 120 lbs now, I am pretty sure friends and family would think I was sick. I hide my weight well : ).
Weird as it may seem, I was at my "hottest" about 1.5 years after I had my first child. I consciously made an effort to lose the baby weight and I was damn proud of myself. Can you just feel all that confidence? I was back into showing off my cleavage (what little I have), wearing closer form fitting clothes, and enjoying life. My husband loved it! And I loved what I saw in the mirror.
Dislikes: nose hair, whining children, talking about the "budget" with my hubby, stupid drivers on the road

Fast forward to today- I am 40 weeks pregnant with our THIRD child and well, I'm not feeling so hot right now. Unless you find very pregnant ladies who weigh over 200lbs and are ready to give birth, well HOT. And there are some who just might find that HOT : ).
But a few months from now or whenever, I'm gonna work on getting hotter than ever before!

THE DAD JAM
I, too, was not quite hot enough for the Hotblogger calendar.
Wish I could blame it on sleep deprivation and being too busy to take care of myself, but lets face it, before I had kids I didn't sleep much or take care of myself either.
This photo where I am smiling is me way back before the kids, enjoying some time in Salzburg.
The photo where I am trying to catch some z's with a baby around my neck is the status quo. Not always able to try and catch some z's, but often have a baby (or toddler) around my neck.

Oh woe is me, I wasn't even nominated. They can kiss my pre-pregnancy, pre-bloggingmademyassbig.com butt.
Someone out there - besides my husband must think I'm hot ... oh you had better think I'm hot hubby or else, no sex for a year ... oh yeh that's right you're not getting that anyway. My babies saw me in the shower this morning and they didn't wail uncontrollably. Thanks kids. Love ya.
Likes: champagne (just give me a straw and I'm good to go), chocolate (in all shapes & flavors, just back the truck up), my kids, my hubby, blogging and being curled up on the couch in my pj's donning my spectacular glasses and hair thingy knitting up a storm - sooo sexy.
Dislikes: people who don't think I'm hot (okay hubby and kids, that leaves you in my good graces), my kids getting on my last nerve, (you know the one where the twitching commences, the gray hair makes an appearance and you reach for the cheap wine with a straw instead of the champagne), my post baby belly blubber, exercise.

I like this calendar soooo much better. Screw the people who didn't make you guys winners.
AM I HOT? Hell yeah, I'm going through the beginning stages of menopause. Is there a hotter time in a woman's life?
I'm also single Mom with 5 kids and can still get my sexy on....oh, yeah, 45 and still rocking. Well, most days.
LIKES? A big steak, pedicures, candles that smell like food, the beach, being sarcastic and making out with Mr. Handsome
DISLIKES? phony or uptight people, the two big assed screws in my knee, Mom jeans, people who pretend they like soy burgers
No idea what to attach but I figured I'd embarrass myself.
Picture with the dark hair (yes, I'm a brunette) from high school graduation 1981. Perky as hell.
2006 in a hideous orange shirt after 4 glasses of wine at a summer party. Obviously the shirt came with no instructions. I failed to realize it came with a tube top under it. Thought it was a waist cincher.
Remaining picture was taken a few months ago. I'm in a bathroom stall in a sushi restaurant. Don't ask.

STEPH AT SERENITY NOW!
So, I didn’t take part in the Hottest Blogger Contest, partially because I wasn’t HIP enough to participate, and partially because I am not big on asking for things (nominations/votes). But now, when you mention the NOT Quite Hot Enough Calendar, I can totally DIG that! (What am I stuck in the 80s?---YEP!---You’ll notice the BIG hair in both pictures.) OMG!

Graduation…(old and scanned from Mommy’s wallet)

Dislikes: Junk Email, Clients who don’t pay, gaining 5 lbs each year, people who don’t look in the mirror before they leave the house and teenage drama.
Thanks for the NON-ination!

Tiffany here from www.stuck-in-the-sticks. Now what is hotter than a redneck? Obviously alot of shit because I wasn't nominated. That's ok because I'm stuck in the sticks and have rarely traveled anywhere. I wouldn't want to embarrass myself. Onto my pics. Now this pic is screaming hottness. I was about 16 or so and had long beautiful hair with green eyes and an affection for camouflaged jackets. Oh yea I was a real hick back in the day.  Now in this current pic I am rocking the boa like a mother f*#king rockstar. I won't tell you what concert I was at because that would make you look down upon me.   And this pic is just plain ole me. I now have short highlighted hair and still have green eyes. Notice how my apparal has drastically changed. I mean I only wear my camo now when I go hunting. I sure grew up didn't I? Likes : Halloween, dressing up, scary shit, horror movies, english bulldogs, my kid and family, cows (yep I raised em, can't ya tell by my jacket?) and animals Dislikes : People who hate Halloween, snobby people, people who can't recognize hotness right in front of their faces, Star Wars movies (send hate mail to Sue), and animal abusers |

AMY
I totally would have nominated myself for the Hottest Blogger Calendar, except I was too busy letting my daughter fix my hair (see attached picture).
But let me tell you -- I AM hot -- if having pre-menopausal hot flashes counts. If breaking into a sweat just thinking about exercise counts and steaming that my husband forgot to do the dishes he promised he would do counts, then absolutely I am one HOT blogger.
My likes:
Ice cream, especially Maggie Moos; Diet Coke (the real kind, with caffeine and nutrasweet -- not decaf or that nasty Coke Zero); comments left on my blog; Scrabble; working part-time; when my 5yo ds climbs into our bed in the middle of the night and snuggles under the blanket next to me; the Indianapolis Colts; being a wife and mother.
My dislikes:
Cottage cheese -- the kind you eat and the kind that jiggles on the backs of my thighs and my butt; restaurants that think Coke Zero and Diet Coke are the same thing; blog entries that don't get comments; Sudoku; when my 5yo ds pees in our bed in the middle of the night; the Indiana Pacers; being guilted into being a room mom at school.
Visit my blog at http://4thfrog.blogspot.com.
SHELLEY
Likes: The Spa, Wine, My Husband, Wine, Eating whatever I want, Wine, Pina Coladas, Wine, Dinner Parties with wine, Hilton Head Island, Wine, Law School, Wine.
Dislikes: Sucking in to be able to fit into my wedding gown after gorging on chips & guacamole & beer, Being a lawyer, I'm not into Yoga (I have half a brain), dieting (Monday through Thursday's lunch religiously)
TALLI
*Overlooked Once Again
Why is it always that I am overlooked? I most not be hot enough for the blogger calendar. What is it my Chemistry degree or my Doctorate in Physical Therapy? I thought those days of being overlooked were over when I got out of college. Oh, well my husband thinks I'm hot enough and I guess that is all that matters.
I guess I will just stick to working on my health blog and podcast, Being Healthy for Busy People at www.BeingHealthy.tv
*Likes:* Exercise, cooking, healthy gourmet meals, tea, traveling and playing with my son
*Dislikes*: People who just don't listen and mullets (come on those didn't even look good in the 80's)
KIMBERLY
Emboldened by previous entries, I submit my own.
Ways I'm not quite hot enough: I rock a physique that suggests Eastern Europe and a largely potato-based diet.
Ways I'm plenty hot enough: That's a FIREFIGHTER uniform, yo. With badges and wee sparkly pins for Hazardous Materials Operations Level training and everything. Note the flattering man-shirt tailoring. (They only make big enough shirts for mens. I guess they figure us 'womens of size' are home reading Danielle Steel novels or something.)
Likes: Shiny new rescue equipment, 'working fires', martial arts, old movies, blogging, new lipstick
Dislikes: Drunk a-holes who make us use the shiny new rescue equipment, poor logic, inadequate water pressure, rude ER staff, scratchy fabrics, Fox News.
EMILY- MAMA DAWG

Look out, this one is smokin'.
No it isn't the "I think I am Pat Benatar in leg warmers" picture, I am still searching for that one. Please accept this smokin' hot picture in the meantime.
Don't you just love the outfit, when was it ever ok to wear that? Yeah, it probably wasn't ever, now I understand my lack of a social life through high school...
Likes: tylenol, bubble baths, a nice glass of wine or margarita or a fat tire, running (and not only from my boys), my pink laptop
Dislikes: poofy shoulders and shoulder pads, big hair bangs, one piece jumpers for young adults with many buttons and a big bow on the arse, and the fact that could once wear that without sucking it all in, oh and of course, Crazy Dentists

KATY
Before another great contest like this comes along I will be honing my Photoshop skills. I feel all behind the times having to use real pictures.
Both of these photos are from a cruise in 2003. I was too blond, too tan, wore too much bronzer and still looked fabulous with it all! In looking through the pictures now I am so mad at myself for not taking enough pictures of me in a swimsuit to wallpaper my house with. In any case, I think I will hang them in the pantry too remind me of my former glory.
Now, I know I will reach right past the photos and grab the cookies, but at least I can remember I was hot at one point in time. 
Likes: Nap time, Snack time, Bed Time, mellow music, and air conditioning
Dislikes: laundry, cleaning, any type of housework in general, sweating, and currently the insanity of potty training.-- Visit our family blog at mccay.blogspot.com

I want to be July because it's my birthday month and, as all self-centered diva's know, you take an entire month to celebrate your hotness, not just one measly day.
I have outstanding qualifications:
1. I've been on a reality TV show (Wife Swap)
2. I hang with the likes of Tim and Faith, Toby, and soon, Sara Evans
3. I'm on VIP lists when I party in Vegas
4. Psych Ward (lizzie mom) is my sis
5. I hook up sis with hard to get liquor. It keeps her happy.
6. I maintain 3 blogs
Likes: solitude, wine, knitting, frugalness and self-help books.
Dislikes: mean people
Blog: Bama Bargains!
DEBRA
If there has ever been a woman who should be in the NQHE calendar, it's me. I might even get the vote for cover girl.
I am a 42 year old woman with 2 grown boys and 1 granddaughter. In my opinion - and lets face it my opinion is the only one that really matters here - I am the Hottest Nani in all of Horry County, SC. Any arguments? I didn't think so.
Take your time to bask in my beauty, I'm used to it.

LEAH
In this picture, I was pregnant with baby number two, but didn't know it yet. I had JUST FINALLY lost the forty pounds from baby number one (never mind that he's now 7). That's right, I lost all the weight and got myself all knocked up. Guess I looked alright, or at least my husband thought so. Now I need to lose that damn 40 pounds all over again. My hair was lighter too because I actually had the time to do my roots, and it was longer because I hadn't yet chopped it all off in anticipation of tiny fists yanking stray strands with reckless abandon. But once, not that long ago, I was almost not hot enough.
Likes: dancing, wine, coffee, summer vacation, cheese cake, shopping.
Dislikes: exercise, coffee with no sugar, the school year, dieting, mortgages.

ELAINE
I was at my hottest when I was in high school – senior year. I actually think I was more “cute” than hot but I had three guys ask me to homecoming so I must’ve been workin’ the cuteness to my advantage. I think it was the hair. They just wanted to touch it and smell it. I mean, don’t you?? I was also able to get away with wearing white jeans that year. I haven’t worn white jeans since then. And I thought I was fat. Whatev.
Fast forward 15 years and 2 kids and here’s what you get. Less hair but more confidence and to me (and my hubs) that’s truly HOT! Plus I got hit on by the produce guy at the grocery store the other day… something about my melons…
Likes: dark chocolate, red wine, new clothes, cupcakes (food in general), spa days, vacations to the beach
Dislikes: potty-training, Mondays, celery, my rental mini-van

JEN AT THE DAILY MISH MASH
My secret to hotness...have your picture taken with the best looking guy on the planet. That guy would be Ryan Gosling.
If all of your stalking attempts get you nowhere and he refuses to show up at your door and invite you to a red carpet event, I have the perfect solution for you. You could do what I did and have Jen The Mom photoshop your face onto his girlfriend's body.
How hot is that?!! I finally have skinny arms and perky boobs.
Likes: Ryan Gosling, sleeping in, Coke Zero, Disney World, reading Twilight, movie trailers, and when McGosling get back together.
Dislikes: Strippers, cantaloupe, Lord of the Rings, winter, mornings, cleaning, exercising and when McGosling break up

So apparently my invitation to the Hot Blogger Calendar has gotten lost in the mail. Well their loss - obviously.
I have come a long way since my early thug days.
Now that I have a kid, I gotta clean up my act.

My likes: The smell of mulch (seriously), cleaning my house (freak, i know), when my Tar Heels beat up Duke, the Barenaked Ladies live in concert, my kids smile and brand new laugh, my wife's sense of humor, my dog's ears, my DVR, of course long walks on the beach.
My dislikes: Self important people on the Metro that push you out of the way, people who use their education to make you feel dumb, Coach K, the rats that have invaded my back yard, shaving, back hair, those new Microsoft ads with Bill Gates and Jerry Seinfeld.

CLAIRE
I'm a Single Disabled Work at Home Mommy blogger. I use to think I looked ok but after a million or so illnesses I weigh WAY too much and just look a lot older than I really am.
Need proof.... check out the older pics of me way back when.... the one with me posing against the wall I was 20.....
and then on my wedding day (divorced now!).
and then on my wedding day (divorced now!).
I think that I was hot but now... HELL NO! LOL 
I'm now the Old neighborhood lady that sells Tupperware...come see me, I'm a freak show...come on over and ooohhhh and ahhhh over the wonders of the Tupperware lid that seals so tight nothing can get through! LMAO and while your at it, check out the goiters and cysts on my thyroid.. beautiful to look at if you ask me!
Thanks for the entry.. it's an honor to just be nominated for my not-so-hotness!

MRS. SCHMITTY
I'm Mrs. Schmitty and I too was overlooked for the Hottest Blogger Calendar.
As you can see I have a smokin' bod, but I guess there must have been an unwritten rule about cartoon characters not being included. So unfair!
I don't know about you, but I think that's discrimination. Sigh.

Everyone wants a little love in February, and what is not to love about this? NQHE? Tell me, what about this picture is not hot? 
Please vote for me for Miss February, Usually Pregnant Tyne.
Likes: eating out, laughing with my husband, funny things my kids say, being "hot" the day before I deliver my third baby, not having to worry about my muffin top, 'cause it's usually just a "bun in the oven" in disguise.
Dislikes: washing dishes, dirty diapers, the smell of our tap water

VIC - GLOWSTARS
Let me tell you a secret. I asked everyone not to nominate me as a hottest blogger. It just wouldn't be fair y'know. I mean look at that fine specimen of an arse - nobody would be able to compete. 
It would leave men a jibbering wreck and women sending me bloggy death threats. I can do without that sort of hassle in my life. But you guys, you guys at the NQHE calendar, I know you'll accept me for the gorgeously hot being that I am.
Likes: lazing in front of the TV proving that undomesticated is best, spending money I don't have, chocolate and cake.

MILLIONAIRE DAVID
I wasn't nominated for Hottest Blogger.
What?
Was it the hair?
Well, I had my son cut it. Is that better? He has a knack don't you think? Quite the little stylist, in my opinion! He so gets into his work. Best of all, he works cheap
Likes: Traveling, writing, podcasting, playing with my son and (occasionally) sleeping.
Dislikes: Low quality hamburgers, people who don't watch their finances and 2 year olds with mohawks (Seriously parents, what are you thinking? Two words for you: Child abuse.)

What could be hotter than knowing what your "assets" are??? Here I am modeling a t-shirt advertising mine!!!
Mine are REAL, my hubby says they're SPECTACULAR and I don't care if you don't agree.
Now, that's hot!!!
My sis, Terri, has them as well, but she only sent in a picture of her face, what a whimp!!
INDY JANE!
I probably am not hot enough for this Not Quite Hot Enough Calendar, but, here goes nuthin.
I once had abs and have since sacrificed them on the holy alter of mommyhood...and gladly so. I have tried to convince my husband to get me a tummy tuck but he says it is cheaper to just carry this pic in his wallet.
Anywho, I may never again have the abs of a 19 year old but I can still swim, bike and run like one. Here I am crossing the finish line this past weekend at my first sprint triathlon. Pic taken by my 10yo son, who thinks I am a champion.
This pic was taken in Dec. 07 by my baby of 8years. This expression is sooo HOT because it is the look of adoration for my little girl who loves to take pictures of her Mommy.
