Throwback Thursday: Heather Kathleen Gilligan (soon-to-be Heather Gilligan Byrne)

Thursday, May 31, 2012

It's no secret that NEAT's brunette beauty is quite the ham but after taking a peek into her past, it turns out she was also the size of one when she was born!  When chatting with Heather about her "Throwback" feature, she fell into fits of laughter as she explained that it would be no surprise to hear that her first words were "fren fries."  Although Heather says her parents should have put a bra on her when she was born, we think she was absolutely ADORABLE and we are sure you will agree!!

When asking Heather about her past, we learned that this cutie got away with murder!  Here are just a few examples:

– In kindergarten she de-pantsed a boy that told her he wasn't wearing any underwear

– She threw her beloved "Baby" out the car window to test her Dad's promise that he would not go get it if she did – Heather proved him wrong!

– Little Heather even dressed her brother up in FULL FEMALE garb, Beauty and the Best nightgown and all!

– This badass even read R.L Stein Goosebumps books (rebel!)

As you can see from these pictures, Heather wasn't all trouble.  She loved playing any sport that the boys would let her join, while wearing her favorite Umbros.  When she wasn't beating the boys at their own games, Heather was crushing on Devon Sawa and J.T.T or eating Peanut Butter N' Chip ice cream from UDF.  Known as "Hez" or "Skipper" by her friends and family, she believed in Santa Claus as long as she could and also spent her weekends watching her favorite Mary Kate and Ashley movies…specifically, Passport to Paris.  

I mean, who wouldn't have wanted to be her friend back in the 90's????

We love you Hez!
