    I’m sure you just misheard “impressive.”

  • Mrs. Kennedy Says:

    Agressively AWESOME!

  • bellacantare Says:

    I too make up ghetto-fabulous moves when I’m out dancing.

  • amy Says:

    It looks like you’ve just finished bitch-slapping someone, and then got all up in their face to declare, “boo-yah.” See how “hip” I am, kids?
    Was it Heather? Is she looking for her teeth on the ground?

  • Laura Says:

    Or is that Dooce checking out your booty?!

  • Weeze Says:

    I hope you told them to fuck off.

  • slouching mom Says:

    Aggressive? Not so much.
    Assertive? Yep.

  • Melanie Says:

    Holy shit.

    Nice pic, though! You guys look like you’re depicting yin/yang.

  • Nothing But Bonfires Says:

    Uh, I think Commenter Number 8 is the aggressive one!

  • Dave M Says:

    My lord, Maggie. Your boobs are enormous!

  • aimee/greeblemonkey Says:

    Did you beat the crap out of him?

    (And I ain’t scared of you, I am scared of #8)

  • FENICLE Says:

    Aggressive? I’d be slapping that “Lucky” ass behind you. That’ll show em!

    Who the hell is comment #8?

  • sarah Says:

    just found your site via dooce. love that baby. he does look just like you. (not really an informed comment, as it is the first I have seen of either of you.) my first son is a Henry. Yours is cuter. Maybe because mine is ten and rolls his eyes at me. but. really. what’s up with the commenter?…. tell me….not a frequent visitor, right? recently, while surfing a developing world aid site, I was abruptly dumped into a violent (really, I am no prude. this was awful) porn site. Just like that comment. as Melanie said, HOLY SHIT. I am going to ignore that (FREAKY) ickiness and stick with….beautiful, beautiful baby! congratulations! (mostly for being out and about and fabulous so soon after having him!)

  • John Says:

    Only hip moms wear Lucky jeans.

  • Ms. Karen Says:

    Must’ve been the boobs…

  • sarah Says:

    now I feel stupid. Just realized that you and Might Goods are one and the same. Love that site. And, again. Sorry about that weird shit that just creeped under your door.

  • Dawn Says:

    I think #8 should tell us what s/he really feels and not be so tactiturn…

    But! Beautiful baby.

    And excellent photo. All us Masons tend to dance… interestingly…

  • marjie Says:

    wow….judging by the picture above, i can honestly say: I can’t believe she said that!

  • BOSSY Says:

    Bossy is having a fun time trying to guess what song you’re dancing to. Fun as hot pokers of jealousy administered to the backs of her eyes.

  • amanda Says:

    To the humorless man, a state of wakefulness in a woman is oft called aggression.

  • corley Says:

    Aggressive? I recall a story in which you thought you had been busted taking phtots in the candy shop and quietly snuck off when you realized that someone else was being reprimanded.

    What is with all of the lists in 8?
    “The Holocaust was foreshadowing, yet another example of the Jews sacrificing to help the disfavored::::
    1. 1492 exodus from Spain. Spain became evil – financed Columbus, initiated missionaries, USA (dumping ground of disfavored victimized by god), etc.
    2. Spread throughout Europe as clue to Christians worshipping a false god.
    3. “Quasi-Holocaust claim” contradicting boss.
    4. 5. 6. 7. etc. etc. etc.”

    The “etc.” are a direct quote, too!

  • Meegan Says:

    I don’t understand all the references to comment #8. But I’m puzzled by comment #21. Huh? You frighten me.

  • John Jones Says:

    A new interpretation of “post partum” perhaps? Brooke Shields should be so ballsy.

    PS Hank is absolutely adorable. Almost as cute as The Avon World Sales Leader.

  • Clair Says:

    Can I come play with you guys? You’re having infintely more fun than I am this weekend.

  • Andrea Says:

    Dang, I want to come dancing with you guys. The ladies know how to paaaaartaaaay!

  • Jenn Says:

    Please tell me you took advantage of the opportunity and slapped dooce’s heiney.

    P.S. You look freakin’ fabulous. Be as “agressive” as you want.

  • Kandice Says:

    I am supremely jealous of the fabulous girls night happening in the photo.

    And as for the 20 pounds of baby weight, it took you 9 months to put it on, give yourself 9 months (or more) to take it off. Of course, I’m still trying to take the balance of my baby weight off and my “baby” is 2 1/2.

  • melanie Says:

    I think that “9 months up, 9 months down” bullshit about baby weight is … um, bullshit. It took me 20 months!

    Enjoy your extra fluff. This will be the only time in your life you’ll have an excuse.

    (And I take it that the original comment #8 was deleted?)

  • sarah Says:

    Dooce is DRIVIN’ THE BUS. aww yeah.

  • SmartAs Says:

    Now that Joe Francis is behind bars, yall must have decided to pick up the slack.

    Mom’s Gone Wild – They leave the babies with the daddies and hit the town, paint it red, and slap it around.

    Just don’t get arrested for being too aggressive.

    Word up!

  • Steve Says:

    Hank is aggressive.

  • gwendomama Says:
