Meet the Bear

by mssinglemama on May 28, 2009

I can’t be sure but I think you are all going to like him as much as I do…

Click here to watch the video. He comes in near the end, so bear with us.

UPDATE: Here  are more pictures from the trip.

And here are those eyes I’ve been raving about.

There aren’t many words for any of this.

Definitely. I was just chugging along – following my passion and then boom – there he appeared.

17 Speedgirl May 28, 2009 at 10:35 pm

Does he have a brother? I know there are usually a few cubs in each bear family :)

Reply

18 mssinglemama May 29, 2009 at 11:03 pm

He does… the Bear's brother is single and lives in New York City. ; )

19 Speedgirl May 29, 2009 at 11:41 pm

I'm single and live in Michigan. But I LOVE road trips :)

20 Lauren May 28, 2009 at 10:54 pm

We always drive right by Point Pleasant when we visit my relatives in WV! And I drove by that chemical plant in KY back in December (I wanted to go for a little drive and Anna needed a nap, so I drove across the border and back so that I could tell Anna that she's been to KY)

The Bear is so cute! And I second what Speedgirl said… perhaps he has a YOUNGER brother?

21 mssinglemama May 29, 2009 at 11:04 pm

You do? We need to meet… next time you are coming through let me know.

Reply

22 Janet May 28, 2009 at 11:06 pm

I got such a good vibe from him…he seems like a geniuinely nice, caring person. And I love his sense of humor too. Mankini. lol :)

23 junctionmama May 28, 2009 at 11:21 pm

Adorable!
A bear through and through :)

24 Abby Carter May 28, 2009 at 11:29 pm

We think he's pretty cute, but final decision will be based on the "mankini" posting ;) Well done Bear. That was a hot seat you were in, and you shone.

Reply

25 Canadian Bald Guy May 28, 2009 at 11:37 pm

WOW…love the video. Extremely well done!!

And Bear? Yeah…he seems like a great guy. And thankfully you let him call you by your real name. Because, y'know, in the throws of passion…yelling out "OH MS SINGLE MAMA" might get a bit awkward.

Just sayin'.

Did I mention how impressed I was with the video? Heh…

He reminds me of Chris Pontius from Jackass. How long have you guys been dating?

Reply

Just 4.5 weeks… never seen Jackass but I'll tell him.

Loved the video Alaina! You two seem very relaxed and comfortable around each other and most importantly, you have FUN together! I'm very happy for you. And especially at the prospects for your future. AND you seem so much fun, that I know if you lived anywhere near me, we'd totally hang out!

Reply

38 mssinglemama May 29, 2009 at 3:28 pm

I'm sure we would! And yes, we have tons of fun together – very, very important, right?

HOT. He is adorable. And this lets me believe there is hope for me and my daughter to find a bear of our own!

46 expatsinglemama May 30, 2009 at 7:13 am

My three year old LOVES to drive our car too. And my two year old can actually get the key in the ignition. Scary. She can't turn it yet, though, thank goodness.

Love the bear. Keeper.

Mothman. Scary. Man in trinket store who seemed to believe he was real. Even scarier.

Your midwestern accent–so cute and makes me miss my fam in the STL.

47 Jenna May 30, 2009 at 4:59 pm

He is such a sweetheart, you are so very lucky to stumble across him. I was so glad to see that he told the single mama's to not take dating with a child as a shortcoming and rather as a blessing.

48 Angel May 30, 2009 at 11:53 pm

Hey girl! Long time "stalker" that barely leaves comments. This was in our newspaper, but of course I already knew about the movement from my lovely Alaina!

So happy for you.
