  • Chicken

    On a lighter note I got a really good laugh today.

    About 3 months ago at my moms house the kids learned a "new" game.  I was less then impressed with it, but ya know grandma's they get away with murder.

    So the game.  You get a big baggy sweatshirt, and you put your hands down by your tummy, and your feet in the arm holes.  And then you walk around like a chicken.  Its great for making sweatshirts even baggier.  *snort*

    Now if I'd been at all smart I would have video taped this, cause I guarantee I could have got in the finalist of America's funniest videos.  But I was too busy laughing, and my camera was in the car.

    So...I hear gut wrenching cries coming from the laundry room.  It was Sam.  He *never* hits that level.  But Rob was back there, so I let him deal.  I hear Rob a bit disgusted talking, and what were you doing type questions.  And then I hear, you'll have to get mom's help...we might have to cut you out.

    This doesn't bode well.  But I still haven't heard "MOM!"  So I'm still pretending I don't exist.

    Moments later Rob walks out carrying a sweatshirt...filled with Samuel.  His head is stuck inside the sweatshirt, his feet are in the sleeves, his hands below his feet so he can't use those to push, and his head is buried somewhere inside.  Its all a bit like being in a womb.  And he's crying.  And I just start laughing hysterically. 

    Rob starts snickering and says,  "So, its not just me?"

    I laughed for several minutes before I could assit the dimwit. 

    And then I started laughing some more as I couldn't figure out how to get him out.  And I didn't want to cut the stupid shirt.  I just got it for him yesterday!  So I grab his hands and start pulling, only to realize those are actually his feet. 

    Its very hard to help someone while laughing hysterically.

    I tried to pull his head into the head hole.  Nope no go.

    Back to the arm holes, but this time I know its the foot.  I'll hold onto the sleeve you pull your foot Sam.

    And shortly thereafter he was unstuck.

    I wonder if he still thinks the game chicken is fun?????
