Speaking of Angie, we met some of her friends today down by the river.
As I was busy thinking up really clever sentences, Peter was quietly inching his way up the crazy tree.
I got up to deal with Piggy and noticed that Wetgirl's parents were now the ones pointing and laughing. I pointed as well, only I used a different finger and to the unsuspecting eye, it might have looked like I was pointing at the clouds. They must have suspecting eyes, though, since they stopped laughing and began packing up their shit. Bye.
As Peter continued blowing his conch shell to round up the other savages on the island, one of the 'littluns' started freaking out.
It turns out that baby Gilligan was never meant to be on this island. He was supposed to be on a three hour tour and crash into a completely different island. I hope he doesn't run into the poor bastards from 'Lost'.
You can tell he is a veteran of two boys. The left hand is curled just perfectly to both frame the baby and still display the wedding ring. I know from experience that this helps avoid hours of getting hit on by the ladies and nasty arguments with the jealous wife.
Amir came to the rescue and took the little lost Bob Denver far away from the Wailing Willow.
More important, though, is the right hand gently grasping the baby's fist. Babies are either gross or curious; sometimes both, but if you leave them too long with a free hand, you will undoubtedly end up tiny digits yanking out your nose hairs or your glasses will be whipped off and smashed on the floor before the baby can even begin to giggle.
Speaking of smashing things on the floor and breaking them, David also had a slice of watermelon.
Knowing already what effect the melon had on Peter, I began to run. Fast.

Peter: When we played trains and when Meyssam come.
David: When I want to make a play with Peter and he like my new game.
2) What was the worst part of your day?
Peter: When Mama said 'don't burp' and then I burped and I went to my room and no one was there.
David: When I coughing.
3) What would you like to do tomorrow?
Peter: To go to Easter and see what that bunny give us.
David: When I make a big bunny - the Easter bunny.

Is David wearing a skirt? And is Tom afraid of snapshotdaddy or is he trying to warn you against the monster standing behind you? )))
ReplyDeleteDavid is not wearing a skirt! What do you think we are - Scottish? The shirts in his size are just too damn expensive :-)
ReplyDeleteTom is afraid of the baby in the mirror, so who knows what's freaking him out here - maybe it's one of those scary Blue Morpho butteflies that keep Angie up at night.
Peter's new title: Lord of the Flies. I've also begun to notice how integral beer is to your stories of parenting. That should be in all child-rearing manuals. Honestly.
ReplyDeleteKato: Hey, that's pretty funny - how's your blog coming along, by the way?
ReplyDeleteCheers!
