Tomorrow......The World!!!!
I don't think I've ever met so many kind, and encouraging people in my life, as when I started this blog. After Baby E's debut post last week Wednesday, there were so many kind requests for more Baby E , that we decided to make Mondays his day.
Do you all know how to make a kid beam or what? And do I have to tell you how high he jumped? And how loud he yelled? Here he is, after I told him the news.
Yup. You'da thought it was Christmas or something. Here's his take on the latest from how he sees his world. It's his perception, and that's the one that counts to him, right?
And, sincerely, bless you all for how special you made this little guy feel. He's walking ten feet tall now. To quote him, "I feel like some superstar, from a movie or something."
As always, he speaks, I type:
"OK. Here we go: this is the stuff that happened since last week. First of all, I lost my tooth. Now, to the real business:
Wait. There's so many stories. There was Photo Friday Fight and then there was the Hoarder's Episode and ..my brain is still dusty, but it'll get undusty in a couple of minutes.
Well, then I'll start with the Photo Friday. Photo Friday was preeeeeetttttty crazy.
OK, so we went to blankplace on Friday and we got some pictures taken of me cuz my mom likes to get pictures of us when we don't have any teeth in our mouths. So, we go to this place and went in and we had an appointment and then you won't believe what happened.
And then this crazy walk-in lady said a lie about having an appointment. She said, "I don't know what time my appointment was for, but I'm next." And then my mouth just dropped open. And so, my mind said, "whaaaa?" And they listened to her and said, "next." And she went in. Then, after like an hour, we were still waiting. Then there was a photo of a picture of a lady and the sign said, "we would love to hear of your visit, call us" so and then Mom saw it and said, "I'll let them know how my visit was" and she called and called and told them she was waiting for an hour. When it was finally our turn, my mom asked the lady, "is it better if we just walk in?" in her pretend nice voice, and then she said, "because just tell me, and I'll do that next time."
OK. Now we're going to "the Hoarder's Episode." This morning, Mom was complaining and throwing stuff around cuz there's like a gameboard on the floor in this room, and the coffee table has Legos on it, and she bought some pizza mixes, and ordered 12 boxes, but each box had 4 packs in them, so now we have 48 boxes of pizza mix and Mom said, "where am I going to put all this stuff?" and I was like "stick it under the desk here" and she said, "Under the desk?! Do you want us to be the next Hoarder's Episode?!" And I spit out my juice on my pants.
Bye. We're going now, to the store, to make a list of things the Tooth Fairy can leave me.
Mom, now, we're done. Don't go looking around at more stuff like you always do."

Hahaha! Wow! No problems expressing his opinion, huh? Just what a future ruler needs!
ReplyDeleteI personally like the parts where we see you through his eyes. Makes me wonder what my guys think.
Oh, what a great idea! I love that Baby E will be your Monday guest blogger :-) And it's so worth it that this makes him walk 10 feet tall.
ReplyDeleteI *love* "her pretend nice voice." LOL! They totally know, don't they...
Baby E., thanks for giving us a reason to look forward to Mondays! I hope the Tooth Fairy gets you something good :-)
Hope you had a lovely Mother's Day, Alexandra!
You know what I love about this? Baby E is telling on you on your own blog. "And then my mom said and did this"...priceless! In a sweet and innocent way of course.
ReplyDeleteSeriously is this kid for real?! Your pretend nice voice?! I am howling over here!
ReplyDeleteBaby E, you are a delightful journalist. I cannot wait until next Monday. Have a great week - I hope the Tooth Fairy treats you well!
ReplyDeleteBravo!!! Baby E tell your mom there are some places I've had appointments at, that the next time I have to go I would like to bring her with me;) That Tooth Fairy should leave something very special and I bet she will because that is a Superstar Smile!
ReplyDeleteI love it....congrats on the tooth loss...I hope you clean up!
ReplyDeletelove this post! My son still hasn't lost any teeth. Can you tell him the trick?
ReplyDeleteYou have a pretend nice voice? I LOVE it!!
ReplyDeleteAnd how incredibly cute are the two of you?!? Such a beautiful picture.
this is just wonderful. make sure you tell him that he's a hit in the internet world!
ReplyDeleteI love how he called you out at the end -- I'm always like "one more minute" when I'm on my computer.
ReplyDeleteHe's a doll.
Fantastic!! He is a blog super star!!!!
ReplyDeleteGo Baby E!!!
Fab idea. Loved reading it. Love his point of view on life and I love how witty he is! :) Famous Baby-E. Catchy!
ReplyDeleteHi ya!!!

I'm very happy to meet you and look forward to a new friendship!
I'm definitely following!!

Just the words "And then there was the Hoarders episode" had me glued to my seat. Because how could you not be fascinated by that show?
ReplyDeleteThat's too funny, what a great idea! I too have been amazed by the kindness and community I've experienced since beginning my blog :)
ReplyDeletehe doesn't sound like a baby, he sounds like a comedic genius.
ReplyDeleteUMMMMM, best featured guest blogger EVER. Keep that little man's words of wisdom comin'! Fake nice voice...I die!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Oh and sometimes my brain gets dusty too.
ReplyDeleteYAY!!!!!! I love hearing Baby E's take on life and how happy he is! I've got the biggest smile on my face!
ReplyDeleteAnd he isn't the only one spitting juice out his mouth: Friday night my husband and I watched "It's Complicated" and we got to a VERY funny scene involving Alex Baldwin, a webcam and Steve Martin. Husband spit his water on my leg, he was laughing so hard. : )
Can't wait for the next installment! Happy Monday!
HAHA that is so hilarious! I stopped on over from Bungalow '56 and I think I'll stay awhile! What a hilarious post, I've got a side ache I think. Nice to meet another blogger-friend and I'll be dropping by more often!
ReplyDelete-Laura [The Rad Life]
OMG. OMG. The part about the Hoarder's episode was hilarious.
ReplyDeleteAnd your skin is so beautiful. What do you use?
Tooth Fairy leaves stuff now, not just money?
ReplyDelete"I spit out juice on my pants". Cracked.me.up.
ReplyDeleteI'm telling you, this kid IS a superstar. Good luck with that :-)
Baby E- I love those Hoarders shows! They keep me from putting 48 of anything in my condo. Also, good job on the multiplication, dude!
ReplyDeleteHey, I love that you will be doing Mondays here from now on. Then you should get your own blog and start your own following. And you should convince your mom that that should count for some english/language arts time during each day.
Good ideas, right? Stick with me, kid. And your mom. She's steering you in the right direction with this writing thing.
Empress- You should make him write out what he wants you to type in, or better yet, have him type it himself. Better learn sometime, right?
Great fun, guys!
holy moley i can't tell you how happy i am he's doing this weekly! he is hilarious!!
ReplyDelete"And I spit out my juice on my pants."
i nearly peed myself on this one lol!
Hoarders! That's great. I told my kids they don't have to worry about my becoming a hoarder. I am a purger. Throw it all out.
ReplyDeleteBaby E is adorable! Love toothless grins. Hope the tooth fairy was good to him. ;)
Now, that was cute! I love reading his interpretation of the exciting events...lol!
ReplyDeleteAww...congrats on the lost tooth. And..would you like to visit and dust off my brain too??
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
This is great. Good for Baby E. I'm sure he feels very special and "grown-up." Whatever that means!
ReplyDeleteI gave you an award today :)
http://www.lucilleinthesky.com/2010/05/versatile-blogger-award.html
My, oh my, that was so awesome! Seriously. I loved it. What a great idea. And I bet he loved doing it! Life through a little guys eyes. Keep it coming, sister!
ReplyDelete(sorry I haven't been around lately. I was sick last week and all I could do was type. But I am Baaaaack!)
Good job Baby E. I loved the post. Very funny!
ReplyDeleteHope the Tooth Fairy leaves something special. Can't wait until next Monday...:)
Toodles!
How funny. I have a pretend nice voice too. It's needed around here. Love the post.
ReplyDeleteMary
I think we could all use baby E's advice on all of our lives..maybe he should start a column...like.."Ask Baby E"..or something along those lines...and the Hoarders..too funny..I think we may all be one stuffed closet away from that show...BwaHahahaha
ReplyDeleteFantastic idea.
ReplyDeleteI would have loved this as a kid, but mostly because I was a shameless hussy for the limelight.
Also, I love that your nugget watches Hoarders.
I'm sorry but he's funnier than you! :o) ha ha ha
ReplyDeleteHe IS a rock star.
LOL! Loving Baby E! Can't wait to hear more of his stories!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, so he can spit that out in couple of minutes and get more laughs than the posts I slave hours over. Way to make a grown woman jealous. He's a born professional at this!
ReplyDeleteDid you get in trouble for typing more after he said he was done?
Love it! Tell him I can't wait for next Monday!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your kid. I feel you may become my new blog addiction.
ReplyDeleteMama may be headed for her TV debut! Good thing you'll have a new tooth for the episode.
ReplyDeleteKeep writing/talking! I love your posts!
What did the tooth fairy leave you?
ReplyDeleteAND, I can't believe that woman just budded in front of your guys while you were waiting. I'm not sure I would've used my pretend nice voice. :)
Great job! I can't wait to hear more.
Ah, the "pretend nice voice." Is it sugary sweet, yet laced with razor blades? That's what I aim for with mine. Especially when at the grocery store.
ReplyDelete(I LOVE these posts. Baby E is on a roll.)
this kid is sharp as a tack. I would never let him write for me b/c I don't want anyone to know half of what goes on in this joint.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing son you have! I LOVED this post. Thanks for visiting and joining Life is Good. I look forward to a great friendship. I'm following you too!
ReplyDeleteA) "my brain is still dusty, but it'll get undusty in a couple of minutes" sounds like poetry. This one might be a writer, too!
ReplyDeleteB) I love mom's pretend nice voice. An invaluable asset!
Awesome! just catching up a bit. I love Baby E. I can't wait until I can have my kid be a guest blogger...you may have started a brand new blogging trend!
ReplyDeleteYes, Baby E needs his own column!
ReplyDeleteBTW - the Hoarder's Episode comment made me spew my coffee. Will Baby E come clean my monitor?
:D
Once again, you all NEVER stop amazing me with your kindness and encouragement.
ReplyDeleteThough, I fear, I have created a comment monster. Now, after he posts, he'll say, "let's check...I'll bet we've got at least 2 comments. Let's really bet...I say 2, what do you say?" And he ponies up a quarter.
I did it all, all me. It was me. It seemed so innocent at the time....
You have a great Tooth Fairy. You get to write a list. Ours forget to come sometime. Lol
