Say what?
I know, you’re thinking I’m bananas.
And I am. But a friend of mine, Katy, over at the blog I Want a Dumpster Baby is having her twins this weekend. I’m a little excited. She calls them Hall and Oates. So for the last 6 months, myself, and about 20,000 other folks have been following her journey while she gestates these babies! I’m guessing there will be real names and Hall and Oates have been code names this whole time.
I wish her so much goodness as she brings those babies into the world. If you know Katy, then you know how superbly fabulous this whole occasion is. If you don’t know Katy, let me give you a quick reference guide to help you along with why she’s so awesome-
Katy has a big smile.
Katy was an alcoholic.
Katy was a homeless alcoholic living on the streets of Chicago.
Katy is now clean and sober and full of gratitude each and every day.
I first met Katy online last spring when she was talking on her page about quitting smoking. She made an electric cigarette pretty damn sexy.
Katy likes spazz dancing in elevators.
Katy likes animals so much so that she doesn’t eat them.
Katy has people who love her and these babies who will think the world of her.
Yep, these babies are being brought into the world by two very grateful, full of happy kind of people. Her husband Chris, I can only imagine, is completely strong and loving, to be with such a larger than life girl like Katy. They chose the route of IVF to have these babies so they know how absolutely precious and darned lucky this whole gig is.
So I can’t kiss Katy’s belly- she’s in Chicago and I’m over here in the rainy Northwest. So I send my love via the internet and my blog.
My Reason to Live Friday #28 is other people’s happiness and those sweet Hall & Oates babies that the world gets to meet here in a few days.
Katy- all the best my sweet. And please don’t plan on freezing your placenta for later. It’s just weird.
Spazz dances for you- MUWAH!
Everyone is talking about Kim Kardashian and if she’ll sell her pics to the press when her baby is born. I say, who cares? The only babies I’m interested in are Hall & Oates. As far as I’m concerned, no Kimye baby or even Ivy Blue has anything on these kids.
And then everyone knows what a big deal Katy is, so I told her so with this card:
I might have gotten a little carried away during election season.
LOVE this.
so excited as well
been following her journey and really have enjoyed her blogs 
good luck katy 
Awwww I didn’t realize they were on tour THIS WEEKEND!! So happy for them and they are blessed to have such great friends like you, Frugie.
Oh this is just awesome! I’m so excited to “meet” Hall & Oates and have been following Katy for a couple of months now. She never fails to make me smile
Awesome and thanks for sharing. Wishing Katy all the best and happiness with her little Hall and Oates!!

I love this post, you, Katy, and Hall and Oates!!!
Hall and Oates have about 20,000 Aunties and Uncles waiting to smooch them; looking so forward to that smooch when Katy and Chris are ready to share!
YAY Frugie!!! I love this – such a fitting tribute to the girl we all adore so much.
Love you Katy…and the world awaits you Hall & Oates!! So many fairy blogmothers out there sending
you their love and kisses!
You are so sweet to spread the love! I’m going to have to go over and wish her, Hall, and Oats good luck!
LOVE this and LOVE IWADB. I especially adore the A OK magazine. I hope she names the babes Hall and Oates for real… fingers crossed… anything can happen
New follower here! Saw this post on your comment on someone else’s blog and thought it was about the singing group! But I’m glad I stopped by…what an endearing story! Love your humor!
Don’t know who Katy is. Know nothing about Frugie. Haven’t read a single blog or posting about this. However, ANY one who even temporarily names their children Hall & Oates must be really fantastic and I wholeheartedly approve! Good luck, Katy, Chris, Hall AND Oates!!!
can’t wait to hear and see everything!!!!
