Now in something completely unrelated, but also amusing, here is a conversation we had over the weekend:
B: I saw Landon today. He was asking me if I cut the umbilical cord when our girls were born. I told him that I knew I did for Ella, but I couldn't remember if I had at Talia's birth.
K: You did. On both.
B: I did?
K: Yes.
B: I told him that I didn't think that it was as big as of deal these days. Not so dramatic.
K: I think cutting the umbilical cord used to be a bigger deal when men weren't allowed in the delivery room. (Note: my tone was a little shocked because I didn't know that it wasn't a big deal. I tried not to let on.)
B: Yeah, I think he was trying to figure out if he wanted to do that.
K: Oh he does.
B: I told him it was like cutting a chicken breast---kind of tendony.
K: You what? NICE.
And that makes me never want to eat chicken again. Thanks,love.

Way to act natural BJ.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm with you on the chicken - the comparison grosses me out.
Those first couple of photos look so much like Travis, I had to do a double take.
ReplyDeleteMoral of the story: twins look more alike when they act "natural."
Phil said it was like cutting a cluster of rubberbands! ha! ...not a meaningful moment for him either! hmm...

That is absolutely hilarious! I sware bruce hasn't aged - he looks just like he did in the college days!
ReplyDeleteI want that recipe! The chicken pesto salad of course! Janice
ReplyDeleteinteresting thought....women go through of the labor and pain...yet never experience the cord cutting part.
ReplyDeleteand vice versa.
and i have always thought it was kind of gross to have to do anyway. :)
My husband didn't even want to cut the cord...I think it grossed him out! But I think it would be cool...of course, I also ordered him to take a pict of the placenta...
ReplyDeleteCute picts of Bruce! I am loving your blog, Kimberlee!
