as this photo shows, susanna was born on july 8 and daddy was there :)this conversation actually just took place in our kitchen between me and john...
lauren: i still think it's crazy that susanna was actually born on her due date
john looks at me slightly puzzled
lauren: please tell me that you know she was born on her due date
john shakes his head no and we both start to laugh
lauren: you do know what date she was born on, right?
john: (looking less than confident) the 9th? no, the 10th?
lauren: (laughing hysterically and shaking my head no) no, baby, it was the 8th...not even 2 months ago
john: (laughing) it's not easy like caroline's being on tax day. i'll never forget that. i went the wrong way (meaning when he guessed the 10th after getting the 9th wrong)
lauren: do you remember caroline's due date? (now i'm just having fun looking for more laughs, but know he will get this one right b/c she was due on his b'day)
john: (once again not looking very confident) well, i know she came a week late
lauren: good job, baby...but what was the date? (now i'm just having fun with this)
john: my b'day, april 8
lauren: you got it! now, i'm going to post this on the blog b/c this is most worthy of being the quote the day

That cracks me up!! I totally agree, that deserves the quote of the day.
love you all, Tanya
John, you don't have to remember things like that. You were smart enough to marry Lauren, who NEVER forgets birthdays!
Love you,
Jeanne and Jim
aka Gramie and Papa
i love that you posted the picture to prove he was there. i have that same conversation with big Jorge as it relates to dates. funny how they can remember things that are totally unimportant..ha!
John,
You are in good company.....every year David asks me towards mid-April..."now is Sarah's birthday the 25th or 26th?" Thank goodness you guys married Cole girls......those kinds of details are literally engraved in our brains!!
Love you,
Kristen
