IT HAS ARRIVED. And it's gray.

[05heel]

Four months, 20 emails, and 5 mirrors later. But now none of that matters, because it's here!!!' I waited for my H to come home to open it and he let N announce the color. You know, like a gender reveal. She said, "yay! It's glass!" Lol. Oh well. I think I'll just unwrap it, prop it against the wall, and stand naked in front of it for a few hours. I don't want to let it out of my sight.

Thank you all for your support throughout this ordeal.

I thought for sure this was going to be about hair.

::wanders out::

[Elsa]

Oh but yay for mirrors! Congrats! Lol

[rachers]

Oh yay! I thought about this the other day, lol!

[05heel]

Lol! Why would I be waiting on a single hair? Or maybe I ordered a wig? My friend's mom had a gray weave when we were in high school. She got mad if we mentioned it.

I have no idea. My eye is twitching. I can't drink. I'm barely hanging on to my sanity.

Maybe you should get a gray weave. Gray is so hot right now. And you've got a fancy mirror to check yourself out in now! Lol

Felicitations on this joyous occasion!

If only you had a mommy blog, you could have taken seriously blown out photos of every stage of this process and added a quote from Maya Angelou.


I for real want to see a pip.

[Alex]

I'm so happy your house has received this gift. It has been existing without a gray mirror for far too long.

[themysteriouswife]

I love the brown one you've posted. I'm terrified to order it and it be they wrong color. Glad you got the correct mirror.

[speckledfrog]

YAY!

[isabel]

I hope it was worth the wait.

[compassrose]

That's exciting! But where's the pic??

[05heel]

I will definitely PIP. Should I wait until it's mounted or do an informal family sesh with the blessed gray arrival and her two brown brothers?

[05heel]

Or maybe a naked mirror selfie using just the right amount of flash to make it PG.

[underwaterrhymes]

I think you should go to Costco and ask them to make you a cake with gray filling. Then you can invite friends and family over to surprise them with this joyous news.

Make them guess what color they think the filling is to add to the fun!

[Eagles]

Glory, glory hallelujah!

[rachers]

Piiiiicture!

[WOT?*]

Just doing my part to make sure you post a picture.

[bugandbibs]

I am old and I want to go to bed. I also want to see this all important mirror, so I will eat some cake and wait.

[05heel]

Where were you pushy bitches when I was dealing with Wayfair?  Please accept this pitiful substitute for the mirror picture until I get it unpacked.  

[isabel]

Substitute accepted. That is one cute kid! Her little glasses are killing me.

[PeonyParty]

That kid is gorgeous! You are forgiven.

thanks! The glasses kill me too. Makes disciplining her damn near impossible. :-)

[elleblue]

She's beautiful!

Look at her. Get it girl! 
She totes looks like she's ready to defend her PhD.
Like, "What now, committee?!?!". 
Absolutely adorable. 

I actually thought of you the other day when I took this picture. She rarely has her hair out because she's just too wild and it gets so tangled, but I had just washed it so I let her have fun. I remember you saying your daughter had hair to her butt. Well, N's was down to her butt while it was wet, and she was quite miffed as she watched it retract to her shoulders as it dried. Shrinkage, kid! Better to learn while you're young. I can go from mid back length to ear length in about 10 minutes.

[gretchenindisguise]

I don't think I've ever seen a pic of your daughter before. She's gorgeous.

[noodle]

1. Congratulations on your #blessed event.

2. I think a family photo session is called for. You should memorialize this special time.

3. Your daughter is gorgeous! How are she and the brown mirrors feeling? Are they excited about the newest addition?

[cville]

Your daughter is beautiful!

I mean, she's no gray mirror, but she'll do

[lilafowler]

Oh man she's too cute.
Fellow glasses mom unite!
