Congratulations to my lady!
January 29th, 2005The title should be “ladies”, but Heather is my lady, and Leta is my girl. Heather and Leta are featured in the New York Times! (registration required)
I’m so proud. And they spelled Heather and Leta correctly. o

Neato burrito, bandito :-).

Wow, featured in the New York Times, and she’s not even 1 yet…great things ahead for the little Leta lady!

That is an adorable picture. Congrats to you all.

I know, saw it this morning, great picture, good article. But most importantly, EXCELLENT horrify-the-prom-date fodder.
January 29th, 2005 at 2:02 pm
Really really cool.
January 29th, 2005 at 2:19 pm
That IS absolutely awesome! I hope you are all proud…
I only wish the stupid bastard from the sushi place last week could see it, though I doubt he is literate.
ìDude, plenty people know about her website.î LOL
40,000 Dooce readers can’t be wrong.

It’s always fun to see press coverage of someone we all feel like we know! I love Leta’s face in that photo… she’s so cheeky!
January 29th, 2005 at 3:06 pm
Oh that is the sweetest picture of Leta. She’s so adorable I want to pick her up and blow mouth farts on her little belly all day.
Oh, and Heather’s hands look good too. But I don’t want to mouthfart them.

I just wanted to say Congrats on Leta’s 1st birthday. My son just had his first birthday (Jan. 16th) and it was so exciting and wonderful. Enjoy!

AAAAH! I can’t wait for our copy to come in the mail!
January 29th, 2005 at 5:14 pm
that is awesome. i have such a crush on your whole family.
January 29th, 2005 at 6:12 pm
Great photo - and really interesting article! That’s awesome
January 29th, 2005 at 6:35 pm
As one of the 40 thousand readers, I am so proud of all of you!!!
Great job, thanks for sharing the news!
January 29th, 2005 at 6:39 pm
I did a happy dance this morning when I logged on to the NYT website and saw Leta’s beautiful brown eyes peering out from the screen. Like, “Yippee! I know that baby!” Like I’m a part of your tribe or something. (I need a life!!)
Happy, happy, happy birthday to Leta on Thursday. Thank you for sharing your stories with the internet.
January 29th, 2005 at 8:16 pm
Leta looks lovely and Heather…or Heather’s ARMS look lovely too. Congrats to everyone. It’s great you all are getting the press you most certainly deserve.

Hippo birdie two ewes Leta!
Leta looks so much OLDER in that photo, like she could be five or something. Scary!
January 29th, 2005 at 9:29 pm
Leta’s vision must be practically bionic because look at the size of those eyes!
I’m in love.
January 29th, 2005 at 9:30 pm
Sorry, I take that back. I should have known better, her birthday is early this week. Why did I follow like a lemming when someone wished her a happy b-day? Because I cannot read, that’s why. Sorry, I suck.
BTW I didn’t like the slant of that article towards the end. I resent the accusation that all mommy and daddy bloggers are navel gazers. I think someone like Heather has something real to offer or she wouldn’t be so popular.
January 29th, 2005 at 10:15 pm
i can just see leta striking that pose in about 13-16 years…
“fine mom & dad. whip out the old blog photos of me infront of my boyfriend. oh! not the one of me naked in the sink!”
January 29th, 2005 at 11:24 pm
Congrats! That’s so cool! I was kind of hoping for a rare picture of Heather smiling, but that picture of Leta was so cute! I fully agree with bran - I have a crush on your whole family.
January 30th, 2005 at 6:45 am
I agre with bran and jess..major crush on your whole family. Do you need a 33 year old live in nanny who would come with a female version of chuck? Adopting 50,000 internet children is going to take some paperwork. I don’t subscribe but I am sure the article is great!
January 30th, 2005 at 7:19 am
As a person opting not to have children, I think — hell, I know! — Heather’s blog has much more to offer than just mommy stuff, and I disagreed with the article in that regard. And personally I like that Heather explores the entire range of feelings motherhood has brought out in her, not just the Hallmark ideals. I wish more people who were thinking about having children would give these things more thought.
January 30th, 2005 at 7:20 am
can you guys even believe that years from now you’ll be able to show leta a picture of herself on the COVER OF THE NYT STYLE SECTION?!?!
the mind boggles.
January 30th, 2005 at 7:43 am
Wonderful! Has the Today Show called yet? Mark my words… they follow in the footsteps of the Times and NPR. Can a Newsweek cover story be far off? You Go Girls!
January 30th, 2005 at 8:06 am
I saw it. I LOVE the picture. It’s so nice to read about Heather and her take on Motherhood as opposed to being “Dooced” (even though it was mentioned briefly in the article).
She has so much to offer in that arena. Congrats girls!
