That's a GOREgous Baby!

2009 July 1
by Katie

YAY!  Congratulations to our friends, Billy & Dee Gore on the arrival of their little bundle of boy joy. 

Allow me to do the introductions:

The proud parents had no idea what to name him.  They picked the name at first sight. 

Billy and Jeremy were friends in highschool.  Fifteen years later, the wives get to hear the same Angie Aparo story every time we get together.  Let’s just say that I wouldn’t have been surprised if the baby was named Aparo :)

Dee is one of those shoot-straight-from-the-hip kinda gals.  I love it about her.  I like to think of her as an M&M.  Tough but sweet.  She’s one little sucker that I can’t imagine ever having a meltdown.  Oh and she is as tiny as can be :)      

 

Hayden loved being in her belly so much that he didn’t wanna come out.  They induced labor but in the end delivered via C-section. 

Hayden LOVES his hands.  I got to watch the video of when he was still hanging out in utero…and his hands were on his face then too.  Funny how the babies do that. 

I was honored to be able to take photos.  And super excited to photoshop them.   Your advice and comments on the Critters of the Week are really helpful…so thanks you guys.  I think listening to you is paying off.  Oh and the Gore’s thank you too. 

He’s a natural, no?  heehee

Congrats you guys.  You have successfully Dee-livered (sorry can’t help it) a cutie pie and singlehandedly spurred an urge in me to grow a human :)   My boyfriend thanks you.

    You want to shoot my baby pictures when I finally have a kid? I mean, kids aren’t in the plans for the next five years or so, so you can’t say you’re busy on that day!

      Shannon – TMI girl :) no just kidding…actually after leaving the hospital, I considered trying to get Jeremy liquored up so that I could take advantage of him. Apparently no booze is required. How’s that for TMI!?! :)

      Heidi – you got yourself a deal :) Just promise me that if I ever get a puppy, that it will be as cute as your two darlings.

      Hi GoogleGuy, Thanks a bundle. And to answer your question…I don’t have any idea. To be honest, I don’t know how to include a statcounter in the new site. And frankly, and this might sound kinda crazy but writing my little blog gives me joy…whether I have zero readers or a bazillion. I guess when it comes to peeps, I’d take quality over quanitity any day of the week :)

      Hi Betty,
      The font for the word ‘introducing’ was Pristina and the pencil font was Sketch Book from Dafont.
      Hope this helps!

    I checked dafont.com and the sketch book font didn’t look the same. I wonder if it has changed?
