On Wednesday, after I got home from mutual, I was sitting on the couch with my husband, watching tv and chatting. He turns to me and hands me his phone saying, “Look, James Phelps is on Facebook.” For a second I was confused. “Who was James Phelps and why is Bryan searching him on Facebook.”
Then it hit me as I looked at the profile picture: it was an ultrasound, our ultrasound. James Phelps is our baby. Our baby set up a facebook page. I looked at it for a few seconds and started laughing.
James Phelps
James’ info says: “-4 months old, Taurus, waiting to make a big splash.”
As I read through his status updates and the rest of his information page, I kept laughing and laughing. In the end I was laughing so hard I was crying.
I knew that Bryan and I were pretty geeky and too many of our conversations have something to do with the internet, but I never imagined our baby would pick up our on all of it so quickly. ha ha ha!
I think my favorite status update so far has been:
James Phelps Rough night…think I need to trade in the waterbed for memory foam
The other thing I think is too funny about our baby’s facebook page is the mixed reactions we have gotten from it. There are some that thing the whole this is bizarre and creepy and some that think it’s just as funny as I thought. My little brother thought it was pretty cool that the baby got wi-fi in there…but thinks the wi-fi might not be the best thing for the baby. ha ha!
If you’re worried that we might be crazy, and want to tell us that our baby didn’t actually set up a facebook page for himself, don’t worry. It’s just a joke. And I must admit, if you read through his posts, my wonderful husband (who set up the page, but swears it was the baby) is very witty.
i laughed pretty hard when i saw it. so funny.
I sort of want to be James’ friend. He’s pretty cool already!
1) You know how it’s creepy when your friends moms add you on facebook but it would be rude not to add them back so you do it anyway….is that what James is gonna think if I add him as a friend?
2) Getting wi fi “in there” probably is bad for the brain waves or something, but it sure has me laughing. I say bring it on!
That’s too funny. I giggled about that status.
I think it’s really funny Katie. Since I’m not friends with him I only saw the info part, but what I saw was a riot. And like 20 Facebook friends pre-birth is pretty impressive!
P.S. I like the new blog design.
