I've covered this baby doll with a napkin because apparently our baby dolls don't wear clothes around here and I didn't want to get anyone after me for child pornography.......anyway...
My brother, his wife, and the babies were here this weekend looking for houses because he finally got tranferred to a post office close to home (YAY!!) and they were over Saturday night along with my sister and her family watching the Auburn game. (Was that the longest game ever or what??)
I was in a heated discusstion with my brother-in-law when my brother tapped me on the back and said "Brooke, hold him for a second." As I continued talking I turned with my arms already cradled ready to get my precious nephew. As soon as I did Joey dropped the "baby" and it was falling! I was like Auburn's defense (which wasn't very good Saturday night) trying to catch the most important fumble of the game. For a split second my nephew's future flashed before my eyes....brain damage, wheel-chair bound for life, and the emotional scarring of my own life as I live every day guilt ridden for dropping my nephew. The next split second I realized this baby is naked....neither one of those twins were naked the last time I looked at them!!! By this time the "baby" is now on the floor and everyone, especially my brother is laughing hysterically at me. At this point I don't care who's laughing. I feel like I just had a heart attack, or maybe I need to vomit, no, I'm crossing my legs because I think my bladder has just lost all function. Ashley said I was white as a ghost and once the blood rushed back to my face I ended up laughing too (as I was punching my brother for being so mean)!
So, next time we have people over for a game or any other function I am hiding all baby dolls!!!!!

That is hilarious!!! I can only imagine what you looked like. And yes, I would have punched him, probably in the face as Amber would have said!!
Brooke, Thanks for the comment on my blog. I love a spirited reply.
You asked about me doing a caricature, (I never can spell that word too.) I think that you will find my prices VERY reasonable, but I prefer to discuss it via e-mail, rather than an open blog. Please e-mail me at... green_rick@juno.com
I'll look forward to your reply.
Hi Brooke! Thanks for the comment on my blog. My sister sent me a link to the Pokemon sale. Dawn's story reminded her of my family.
I would have reacted the same way over the dropped "baby".
Oh, man...I SOOOO would have punched him, too! (After I recovered from my heart attack, that is!)
Your blog made me smile. Thanks.
Gee whiz you have some funny tales!
