About Me

- Hi! I'm MLS and this is my blog. Grown-ups get to do everything cool while expecting us babies to lay around and drool. Babies unite! Join me in a revolution in which babies are heard! We have much to say if anyone bothered to listen. This is my way of getting my thoughts out there and maybe, just maybe, giving insight into the secret thoughts of babies everywhere!

The "Perfect" Child & Why No Parent Really Wants One
It's MLS larger than life! So you're probably wondering what's with this face...well mommy had asked me to smile for about the thousandth time, and I was sick of it! I don't get it...I smile ALL DAY LONG. All day! And yet she always waits til the last minute to pull te camera out. "Smile for mama sweet boy! Smile!" No! No I will not smile anymore. I will not smile for two reasons - first, because you asked me to, implying you think I'm not smart enough to know that you're supposed to smile for a camera, and that knowledge does not put me in the mood to smile. HELLO! I am Mr. Photogenic here! I know what is expected when in front of a camera! Second, I will not smile because sometimes I am aiming for a more artistic shot, pensive perhaps, or even angry at times. And Iwould like to point out that you must have the bad to appreciate the good as much...if I never frown, you won't appreciate my smiles as much! If I never scream or cry, you won't get to breathe that sigh of relief when I stop. If I never perform the pee fountain when you go to change me, or projectile spit-up on your nicest shirt right before we walk out the door, or cry right when the preacher starts his sermon, you'll never have any funny stories to tell your friends. Let's just be honest, no body really needs a perfect baby! (Although unfortunately for my parents, I come pretty darn close! I'm like the male version of Mary Poppins..."practically perfect in every way.")
