Moving onto the story of the evening. Everyone wanted to hold her which was fine by me especially since my hand is hurting again. While we were talking with David's co-worker (Witness #1) and her friend (Witness #2) this woman came running from across the very large room and the following ensued:
****Note: Baby Snatcher Woman is an extremely close talker, less than 4 inches from face*****
Baby Snatcher Woman: Can I hold her? OMG, You are so blessed, she is so beautiful, I love babies.
Kim: Sure:
*****Kim hands Sydney to Baby Snatcher woman*****
Baby Snatcher Woman: You are so blessed, she is so beautiful, I love babies
Kim: Yes, we are lucky
Baby Snatcher Woman: Look at those eyelashes, I always watch my nieces and nephews, I love babies, your so blessed
Kim: Mmmhhmm
Baby Snatcher Woman: I love babies
*****About this time, Kim thinks that unless she bolts for the door with Sydney she is just going to let this play out as it will be a great blog. Kim wonders how she will get a picture for the blog. Sydney starts to whimper a tiny bit*****
Baby Snatcher Woman: She wants you!
*****Baby Snatcher woman hands Sydney back to Kim*****
Witness Number 1: Can I hold her?
Kim: Sure
*****Kim hands Sydney to Witness Number 1*****
Baby Snatcher Woman: OMG, You are so blessed, I love babies, I watch my nieces and nephews.
Witness Number 1: She is really cute
Witness Number 2: Can I hold her for a minute?
Kim: Sure
Baby Snatcher Woman: You are so blessed, she is beautiful, I love babies
Kim: We are really lucky.
*****Witness Number 1 hands Sydney to Witness Number 2 and two seconds later*****
Baby Snatcher Woman: She wants her mother!
*****Baby Snatcher Woman rips Sydney from Witness Number 2 arms and leaves her with the "What just happened" look on her face*****
Baby Snatcher Woman: OMG, you are so blessed, I love babies
Kim: mmhhmm
Baby Snatcher Woman: I applied for a job in an orphanage
Kim: Really
Baby Snatcher Woman: Oh yes, I love babies, your so blessed. She is beautiful.
Kim: Yes she is
Baby Snatcher Woman: You are so blessed, I love babies
Baby Snatcher Woman: Can we take a picture together? You, me and the baby?
Kim: Of course, that would be wonderful (Yes!!!!)
Baby Snatcher Woman: Oh that is great, I love babies, your so blessed.
*****Kim asks David to take a picture. David knows this woman is going to end up on the blog and he takes picture*****
Baby Snatcher Woman: This is great, I love babies.
Kim: They are wonderful
Baby Snatcher Woman: You are so blessed!
Baby Snatcher Woman: Can I take a picture with the baby and my boyfriend
Kim: Sure
Baby Snatcher Woman: This is so great, She is so beautiful, I love babies.
*****Baby Snatcher Woman and boyfriend get their picture taken with Sydney*****
At this point others came over and the moment was ended. Let me just tell you that this was the SHORT version. The whole thing probably lasted 15-20 minutes. Witness Number 1 and 2 were hilarious. We all talked about it afterwards and in the end Witness Number 1 and 2 were able to actually hold Sydney and they were made aware that they would be featured on the blog.
Here are the pictures of The Baby Snatcher Woman, Sydney and I, The Baby Snatcher Woman, her boyfriend and Sydney, Witness Number 1 and 2 and the last picture is an adorable shot of Sydney and David.
Good Times!

LOL! Great story. Sydney is adorable! I like the baby snatcher's blouse or dress(I can't tell which it is).
LMAO! I think I might need to reenact this event the next time I see you and Sydney! Kudos to DT for being a husband who understands the importance of blog photography! Especially since he's a really good normal photographer :)
oh boy. This would have made for great voice notes. The pictures are so fantastic!!!!
-hate close talkers
-love the witnesses
-did David know the BSW or her bf?
-not only is BSW a close talker, she is leaner...not good
-her bf looks nice but also slightly crazy...hope he's deaf
-I wonder if she has any nieces or nephews
-Kim, you're so blessed
I love the pic with David and Sydney!
This is a great story. BSW scares me a bit.
You are blessed and she is so beautiful.
I wonder how much longer baby snatcher and the boyfriend will be together. Unless they are already on the road to marriage, then I think this is just the sort of thing that would scare a guy off. Of course, that might be the cynical old maid in me talking.
BTW - You are so blessed and she is beautiful.
ROFLMAO! this has got to be one of your best blogs EVER!
how long had you all been at this party? (ahem, could she have had a few glasses of wine?) not only is she a close talker, but she is a leaner! you JUST met this woman and she is draped all over you.
is it odd to anyone else that this woman wants a picture with her boyfriend and someone else's baby?? (i wonder if HE found that a little scary??)
absolutely adorable picture of david and sydney - she is beautiful; you are so blessed.
That is too funny. How many times could she tell you she loved babies. Bizarre. The baby snatcher kind of has crazy eyes. :: -Tanya
Maybe the dye went into her brain?
Kim, I love your blog, it's awesome. I have a blog too. Kim, I love your blog, it's awesome. I have a blog too. Kim, I love your blog, it's awesome. I have a blog too.
Nut job! :)
The answer is to have 6 of them and have them bumrush any and all potential BSW's as they enter the room by doing a SWAT-type entry by somersaulting in and using toy fire engines to simulate flash bangs.
I make sure and have at least one with a runny nose and snot and I give them all Oreos and to eat and red Kool Aid to wear.
This wards off most BSW's. Those that still approach have been sufficiently warned that I have no problem leaving my kids with them the entire evening.
Ok, I think I love The Sales Whisperer on that one comment alone!
RO!
This is very odd that a stranger would want to take a picture with her boyfriend and YOUR baby.... Dear God...and you definately are Blessed.... she is absolutely a beautiful child!!!
