Why My House Is Just Like a Frat House — Reason #598
December 4, 2008
Should you pass out on the couch, people will pile stuff on top of you. In this case Star Wars action figures.
And then photograph it.
And share it with the internet. Though in college it probably won’t be your mother doing that last one.

my favorite is the apple.
December 4th, 2008 at 8:41 amChris! I love this! These photographs are SO MUCH FUN!
December 4th, 2008 at 8:54 amWhat blows my mind is that the figures are actually standing up!
Although if it were a frat house, he’d be snuggling a beer bottle instead of an apple. Cute, cute!
December 4th, 2008 at 9:00 amSo cute! And also…disturbingly like some college memories I thought I’d successfully repressed.
December 4th, 2008 at 9:03 amHow did they get them to stay ON?
December 4th, 2008 at 9:04 amI would surely hold on to that one for when he starts dating. Blackmail is a lovely thing! :o)
December 4th, 2008 at 9:18 amaww… he looks so sweet! at least you didn’t draw on a mustache or write something unsavory on his forehead.
December 4th, 2008 at 9:30 amMiles is sooo adorable and your other munchkins are very funny.
December 4th, 2008 at 9:50 ammy word, that’s hilarious.
December 4th, 2008 at 9:56 amConsidering the apple is probably lying bite side down on your couch, you have every right to torture. I am a little surprised you would have risked disturbing some peace and quiet by waking him. Naps are few and far between here these days.
Chris says: I didn’t pile the stuff on him or take the photos. I came home from bringing my oldest son to football practice and found these photos on my camera. I am only guilty of sharing them with the internet
December 4th, 2008 at 9:57 amYou are so funny! That’s a sign of a good day - he must have played hard!
December 4th, 2008 at 9:59 amIt looks like these are flashless pics — how sweet is that. Real frat boys wouldn’t have bothered to turn off the flash.
December 4th, 2008 at 10:14 amAw - what a cutie. It’s like stuffonmycat.com!
December 4th, 2008 at 10:17 am
cute
December 4th, 2008 at 10:44 amIs there anything cuter than a baby asleep with his butt in the air?
December 4th, 2008 at 10:51 amI had to figure it was siblings who concocted this amusement! Too funny. I’m sure that apple will be back in the fruit bowl as soon as he wakes up…
December 4th, 2008 at 10:51 amThank GOODNESS they didn’t yet have internet back in my college days!
December 4th, 2008 at 10:52 amJust the laugh I needed this morning. I am assuming he had the apple in case he got hungry while sleeping. Boys always so practical.
December 4th, 2008 at 10:54 amat least they didn’t draw on him….
December 4th, 2008 at 10:58 amHa! Your kids took those photos? Me-thinks that you’ve trained them well on what kind of stuff is “blog-worthy”. Too funny!
December 4th, 2008 at 11:18 amI agree with Embee. The apple wins at funny!
December 4th, 2008 at 12:08 pmKnowing you didn’t even take the pictures makes it that much more funny! :o)
December 4th, 2008 at 12:15 pmWell, that’s what big brothers are for!
December 4th, 2008 at 12:21 pmI like the first one where he’s still sleeping in baby position.
And the apple…something about it just says innocence.
And so funny what his brothers (and sister?) did to him. I am the oldest in my family, so I tortured my younger siblings too…it’s part of the job description.
December 4th, 2008 at 12:29 pmThat first one i such a precious photo!
December 4th, 2008 at 12:40 pmIn my boy’s almost-4-years of life, he has not once, NOT ONCE, passed out outside the confines of his bed. What gives?
December 4th, 2008 at 1:23 pmThanks for the hearty chuckle! I needed that! I am reminded of the time I painted my college boyfriend’s fingernails while he slept and then lied about not having any nailpolish remover when he woke up. Surprisingly, he married me 4 years later.
December 4th, 2008 at 1:33 pmNow THAT is a picture for his wedding rehearsal.
Your kids are hilarious…did any of them ‘fess up to taking the pics?

December 4th, 2008 at 1:59 pmYour kids kill me. I am dead from the cuteness.
December 4th, 2008 at 2:05 pmHilarious! I love piling things on sleeping people. Piled 2 loads of laundry on the Mister once while he was sleeping in his chair- got pictures. Painted his toenails Party Pink once too. Then I forgot about it. After he woke up we went outside to do some gardening. Both looked down at the same time and there they were pink and pretty. I had some ’splainen to do
December 4th, 2008 at 2:36 pmWhat a hoot!! Thanks for always making my day!!
December 4th, 2008 at 3:05 pmThat’s HILARIOUS! And so like something I would have done to my sibs when I was younger!
Oh, the things my mom hears about now that she never knew about… hee hee!
December 4th, 2008 at 3:17 pmMan, chances are this is something they will not grow out of, speaking from experience. A few friends of mine and myself decorated another friend of our’s hair with tiny Star Wars figures a couple of months ago and took photos. Of course, we have the excuse of actually being in college.

December 4th, 2008 at 3:26 pmROTFL!
One day I fell asleep on the couch and my dh unfolded the ENTIRE Sunday newspaper and spread it over me, like a bum. I was nice and toasty.
December 4th, 2008 at 4:09 pmWe do the same thing at our house…. but it’s called Human Jenga!!!
December 4th, 2008 at 8:17 pmIn college he’d have had been Sharpie’d, (Temp tattoo, mustache or some other artistic rendering or all three ;-)maybe he’d have a cookie in his mouth and of course the requisite checking to make sure the beer supply hadn’t been tapped into to put him in that state.
December 4th, 2008 at 8:30 pmhaha. Simply adorable!
December 5th, 2008 at 3:33 amMy guy friends always drew male anatomy parts on one another- busting out the black Sharpie whenever their pal was knocked out in lectures. There would be guys of the same species in the row behind who’d smile and flash their thumbs up at the perpetrator. They said that’s what true friends are for really.
Thanks for the cuteness overload. Miles always brings me smiles!
Absinithe? No wonder he’s passed out……
December 5th, 2008 at 10:34 amThe “Absinthe” poster in the background lends the whole thing that extra layer of classiness.
December 5th, 2008 at 1:42 pmVery Funny! I’ll have to try that with my four boys.
December 5th, 2008 at 4:04 pmOh the cuteness!
December 5th, 2008 at 7:44 pm*cracking up*
December 6th, 2008 at 7:28 amGenius pictures - thanks for sharing!
Hee hee this made me laugh!!!
December 8th, 2008 at 8:49 pmLove it!
