Christmas surprise
Posted: January 8, 2013 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: best husband award, Blogher 39 Comments »So, my husband had me CONVINCED in the craziness leading up to Christmas that he’d forgotten to buy me a gift. I even tweeted (man, that verbification still sounds dirty to me…) about it:

And I was ok with it! Really! So imagine my surprise on Christmas morning when he handed me a wrapped envelope…
Holy crap. I’m going to Blogher. In Chicago. With a 2-month old.
SQUEEEE!!


I get to meet you! I get to meet you! That’s the best husband evers. High five him from all of your fellow bloggers.
Totally surprised me. So nice to have something to look forward to at the end of this crazy spring / summer!! **high fives and fist bumps**
That is awesome! I wish it was in NY this year, would love to hang out with you and Jeanette. way to go DH!
Oooooo – I haven’t been to NY since I was in college in Philly *mumblemumble* years ago… That would be fun
Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh!!!! That is AWESOME!!! I’m sooooooo jealous and way excited for you! Woot!
Stoked. Just stoked. The stinker – making me think there was no gift…
I love it! (Also – I love the pics!)
That’s awesome! Enjoy the city – Chicago’s great!
We’re gonna cheat and rope it into a family vacay (he grew up in the ‘burbs)… So DH & the 2.5 year old can visit folks / places while the baby & I live it up – built in child care FTW!!
Wow, what a great surprise! Yay for husbands!
Right?! He can’t normally surprise me – but man, got me GOOD this year!! (And yes, I really do make those ridiculous faces in real life. Doh.)
That is so nice! Darn it. I am not going to BlogHer this year but I wish I could meet you! You will see Jeanette though!
Awwww man… I am excited about meeting her – although I’m vaguely intimidated by anyone with that much art talent…
Pressure in on for next year for your hubby now that his gifts are in your blog! But I’m sure he will rise to challenge!
Mwahahaha – my evil plan has worked…
First of all, look how cute you are! And yay for big surprises!
RIGHT?!?! After 10 years together, thought I knew all his tricks… (And we always joke I’d give Jim Carrey a plastic-face run for his money – also why I suck at poker *grin*)
Holy what!?!?!?!?!?!? Ohhhh i hope I get to meet you there! That is one awesome dude you married. Well done to the mister!
Ooooo!!!! You’re going? So. Excited.
What a freaking FANTASTIC HUSBAND! And hooray for cool surprises
!!!!!!
I think he enjoyed my surprise ALMOST more than I did. Almost.
Now that’s a husband in tune with what his wife is into! Very cool!
He’s a keeper!! Although I think his back-up gift MIGHTA been a new vacuum… smh
Wow! That is fantastic! (yes, I’m doing the giggle grin thing for you)
LOL – you KNOW I’m stoked if I’m posting sweatpants & no makeup pics on the interwebz…
Woooooo!!! That’s so awesome! I’ve always wanted to go. Hope you have a blast!!
I twitter-stalke blogher ’12 like NOBODY’s business… Kinda embarrassing… But so. STOKED.
Cool – I’m impressed he came up with that surprise! I hope you have a great time.
Meeeee too!! After 10 years, thought I knew all the old boy’s tricks… I’d say that now I’M on the hook, but pretty sure the baby in May’s my trump card
NICE GIFT, but Best. Face. Ever.
And THAT is why the math wiz can’t play poker…
Yay!!! And your baby will be young enough to probably sleep through the whole thing!
That’s what I’m hoping – saw pics of moms wearing babies at ’12 that gave me smiles… *fingers crossed*
These are the best kind of gifts… Total surprise.
Dude – he got me GOOD. Full of surprises, that guy
“Boy, I’m glad I had a camera when I gave my preggo wife a trip to BlogHer for Christmas.”
How fun! ENjoy it. And I guess I am not on Twitter enough because I didn’t realize you are expecting. Derp!
Right?!?! You notice he had that iPhone READY, didn’t you? And you didn’t miss much – I suck at announcing things, so I just started talking about it like everybody was supposed to know…
OMG OMG OMG OMG THAT is Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!
And THAT is how you describe whatever face it was that I was making in the second picture
So. Stoked.
