So, the Olympics in Vancouver are over. I always start out excited.... and by the end, I'm glad it's over. In the way you're glad the holidays are over so you can just stop eating already. ;)
But while I watched about 2 minutes of the closing ceremonies, I was thinking.... the Olympics remind me of G-man as a newborn. He was born 8 days before the 2008 summer games began in Beijing so I saw ALOT of those Olympics. Both the highly televised primetime events... and the less popular events at the random times (in the middle of the day, in the middle of the night!) It's funny how certain things take you back to that crazy newborn stage and everything you were thinking/feeling!
Then I realized.... the last winter games would have been Feb 2006.... and Big Sis was a newborn and I was home on maternity leave with her!
So, for all of you wondering when you'll meet the 3rd Semi-Homemade baby.....
Yep.... maybe the 2012 Olympic games in London would be the perfect time! ;)
ETA: When Kelsey did an Olympian Wishful Wed, I figured I'd just piggyback onto this one... esp since I really should be doing a million things besides blogging anyway!
'I wish' .... I could have gone to the 2010 Winter Olympics to see one event, and it would have been the women's downhill!
All the fun girliness... the drama.... it was like reality tv married the Olympics! But then again it was really snowing... and I'm not so much an outdoorsy kinda girl... So could I have watched it from inside a cozi ski lodge....? With some doctored up hot chocolate (maybe some coconut rum)? I'm just saying... yeah, I'd probably hate actually BEING at the WINTER Olympics! ;)

Hmm, sounds like great timing! :)
I totally know what you mean about loving the start and then tiering off. I still love it though!
Sounds like perfect timing. I can't for the announcement when it does. :)
I must be the last person left of the planet that did not watch the olympic games. Girl, you need to get on twitter! You would have so much fun! Hope you have a great time on your trip!
