The Bachelorette

Tell me you were expecting this... You didn't really think I got all pregnant and mature, did you?  I HAVE to watch this show now... It will keep me girly - which is very important to me now that I am going to be the mother of a boy.

So...tonight was the premier of The Bachelorette.  I wasn't sure I was even going to watch because I didn't really like Ashley H. on The Bachelor.  BUT... my curiosity got the best of me, and I'm glad I did.

First of all, how cute does she look?  I love to see what those producers and stylists do when they get their hands on these girls.  She definitely made me want to cut blunt bangs (and maybe wear zebra print and pink high heels); but, don't worry, I'm going to resist that urge.  I need NOTHING to make my face look any chubbier than it already is. I am, however,  a bit confused about some of her outfit choices in the opening videos (are belly shirts in again?). 

Anyway, the first episode did not disappoint.  Thank goodness we had a guy in a mask and a drunk - what would this show be without some true characters?  Overall, this looks like it will be a pretty good season.  (P.S. My mom reminded me tonight that I will probably watch the finale of this season WITH my little guy... So wild!)

A few thoughts...

- Calling the guys mom on the cell phone was RIDICULOUS.  So lame, and so "planned."

- I think West is a little too much... I'm sorry for his loss, truly.  But, we've been there, done that (Emily).  Am I awful and heartless?

- That butcher TOTALLY creeps me out!

- I still think Ashley has a bit too much energy/enthusiasm.  I hope I can make it a whole season.


And my Top Three Predictions:

Ryan P. - I called him before the "First Impression Rose."  How can you not like a stud in the Solar Panel business?  Really.

William - What can I say, I have a thing for Cell Phone Salesmen! (Plus, I liked his scene with the umbrella.)

and JP - just because I think he's really cute

What do you think?
