World Cup Mania


It's World Cup 2006 and Meredith is appropriately excited. Her Papa Sugg bought her a soccer outfit before she was even born and she and her little mate Ollie (Timothy Charles) Cogan were all decked out for the England/Paraguay game. Never mind that watching it with Dad's soccer team meant a 7am drive out to the farthest reaches of outer Collierville. It was worth it. (It usually is when bacon is involved--thanks Cogans!). Not surprisingly, England took that one. America makes it's first appearance on Monday--Tivos will be working overtime to capture the game for we schmucks that needs must go to work despite such an important event. The Ecuadorian presidente gave his country a half day off when they won--you think Bush will hook us up? GO USA!

Look at her bow! So cute. Did Chris tell you she was crying because she has a bow on her head? Because Kevin says that all the time. Anytime Nora makes a peep he says, it's because you have that bow on her head.

I think it's precious. Miss you guys.

Angie-Mer wore the bow for like 6 hours. At the end of a long day, as she was whimpering about being in the car seat, it slid down onto her forehead. At that point, Chris turned around and--with great vehemence--said "It's that STUPID bow." I mean, you and I aren't bowheads and it's not as if we'll raise our daughters to be bowheads. Why the anger? C'mon boys, ya gotta admit they look loverly.

Sorry, anonymous was Gran - as if you couldn't guess.

Did she even attempt the soccer shoes?

Yes, we did try the soccer shoes. And she wore them for awhile...So cute. But they were really much more popular as teething shoes, and so eventually we had to hide them.
