my little alien.

guess what came in the mail last week?

choi boy's green card! it's official, cb is a permanent resident of the good ol' US of A! in other words, he is a resident alien. my sweet little alien. ;)

i remembered this adorable post on my pal kelly's blog and thought i'd let choi boy have a go at checking out his new status, too.

let's see what he thought...

hmm...what's this all about?

let's take a closer look.

what?! is that my name and picture on there?? that's bananas! and look and my crazy baby hair!
Photobucket

whatevs, let's see how it tastes.
Photobucket

i need to lie down to really savor the flavor.
Photobucket

eh, i've had better. "goodnight moon" is actually quite tasty. it's got the bite marks to prove it.
Photobucket

it does have sharper corner than the books i like to eat read. i'll just use it to pick my teeth.
Photobucket

that's what it's for, right? why are we making such a big deal out of a glorified toothpick, huh?

congrats, choi boy! another step towards making things officially official!

p.s. apparently, i cannot draw straight lines on my laptop mouse pad.

  4. Hee hee - I remember being super excited when that came in the mail! Thanks for taking me down memory lane. I love these funny shots! My favorites are CB laying down to really savor the flavor (look at his face!) and then of course the picking the teeth one. Hilarious. Congrats to your little alien!!!

  20. such a cute post. so cute and funny. i had to chuckle with all of the commentary about eating the non-food items. maddyx loves to taste test all of his books too. lol..

  21. How about that face with the cute little Polo and fleece-lined jeans? Ummmm...adorable.

    And Choi Boy...just remember...no chewing that up like "Goodnight Moom" if mommy and daddy are planning on getting you a COC, as you have to send it back to USCIS! Until then, chew away, little guy!

    Love this post!

  23. Yahooo!! Choi boy looks positively adorable in these pictures! The one of him with his head on the pillow sucking the card made me giggle.

    Si sucked on his green card, too! Must be a rite of passage. :-)
