Pocket Edward's first bath...

In the last couple of days, I have noticed that Pocket Edward was getting a little filthy. I thought to myself, hmm..."It's about time I give this little guy a bath." Yes, I am giving Pocket Edward a bath. In my tub. Scandalous....just the way I like it :)

1. The explanation...
First I led Pocket Edward to the bathroom. He was a little confused, because we both know he can't poop (jealous)...so he was pretty much befuddled as to why we were in the bathroom. I placed him in front of this bottle, and told him that he would be having a cutesy-wootsey-wittle baffey for the cutesy-wootsey-wittle Pocket Edward.

2. The rundown...
Pocket Edward: "WTF?!
ME: "Don't 'WTF' at me...or your will have to sit in time out...and by time out, I mean frolic about with me while I imagine you being life-size Movie Edward...instead
of a lifeless piece of plastic"
Pocket Edward: "..."

3. Execution time...
Pocket Edward embraces the wafts of heat. And reminiscent of a Quiznos' commercial, he says...
Pocket Edward: "Mmmm...toasty."
4. Making himself useful...
Here Pocket Edward, I poured you a nice cap-full of rose scented bubble bath for your relaxation and delight. Now, be a doll (teehee) and pour it into the bath of scalding hot (mmm, reminds me of you) bath water!

5. That's a good job, Pocket Edward...
Now, watch it! You are a bit close to the edge...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

6. Man Pocket Edward Overboard!

Edward...are you there? Edward?...EDWARRRRD?
7. He lives!
"Here I am, my love!"

8. Pocket Edward looks like the abominable snowman.
Pocket Edward: "No...I eated him."
Me: "..."
*cue cricket chirps*

9. Pocket Edward steals from my husband...

Umm, Wee Edward...I am pretty sure, ok...pretty much POSITIVE that Ted wouldn't like you yoinkin' his Irish Spring shampoo. He might want to bite your head off. And, it wouldn't be hard to do...since you ARE a wee little guy. no offense. kthanxbye.

10. Pocket Edward doesn't care.
Ok. So I see you stole anyway. I will pray for your head...and it's beautifully painted highlights.

11. Lauren wants to touch those pretty faux highlights...

Hey, Pocket Edward...can I stroke your plastic tresses? thanx.smooch.smooch.kiss.kiss. By the way...you have huge eye-brows. Like...I am pretty sure they look like cat tails pasted on your face. Not an awesome look. Unless you want to look like my grandpa. Then that's cool.

12. Loofah time!
Pocket Edward is NOT amused.
Loofahs+Edward=notfriends.

13. Edward unplugs the tub...
Ooo...so talented with his I-don't-need-breathe-because-I-am-awesomely-dead-and-still-freakin-hotter-than-most-alive-guys-awesomeness. Git 'er done.

14. Like that stupid Mariah Carey song,
Pocket Edward "Shakes it off"...

Just like me when I get out of the tub. He learns from the best. Not like he watched me or anything. I just told him.about it. OK...stopping.

15. Washcloths fit him better than regular towels...

Pocket Edward in a washcloth has an uncanny resemblance to Moses. We just need some holy tablets. Perhaps that could be arranged...

16. Now for the best part of after a nice bath...
Swabbin' it up with an "Ear Scrubby". Pocket Edward finds it irresistibly appealing...

"OM NOM NOM NOM NOM..."

disgruntled Ted said...

I am so pissed that that post made me laugh.

Erica said...

The "no I eated him" made me laugh so much.

Pause for a moment of my own personal grief: You don't know how *insert many bad words here* my life has been in the past two weeks and your posts have made me laugh every single time. I appreciate it so much. You're so happy and funny, I'm sure all your other friends appreciate your cheerfulness and humor.

This was great though. :) <3

Rebecca said...

Shh...I'm on a blog break, but I had to come check you out because you make me laugh, and I needed one. You didn't disappoint! I laughed like crazy at this one!

Pocket Edward posts are teh bomb.

So are you. :)

STEPHANIE said...

Jayci said...

Kristina P. said...

Laura Sue said...

Meredith said...

Yvonne said...

I loved the "man" overboard ; ) and how he's so helpful. Too funny--as always.

Poutalicious said...

Classic.

JustRandi said...

You crack me up! Let me know when Edward gets his tablets. I'd love to know what's on them!!!

Tonya said...

Pocket Edward cracks me up. You are so funny. I'm thinking pocket Edward could go on a trip or two and be photographed around world. You should start sending him with people when they travel. Let him see the world and all.

NOBODY said...

I'm pretty sure this needs to be submitted to some film festival, it's pretty much the coolest storyline ever.

Does Edward wear skinny jeans? That just can't be okay. Tell me I'm wrong.

Newlyweds said...

So funny story, I woke up this morning to my phone telling me I had an email. So I checked it, and there was a post on Facebook on the group thing for Lauren's Bite blog saying that Pocket Edward had his first bath.so I opened it up while trying to get my sleepy eyes to focus, I died laughing... keep in mind it was 5:30AM and my hubby worke up in a panick because i was laughing so hard. I told him to just go back to sleep! :)

Ann Marie said...

You are a comedian. Seriously...
I think you will be famous one day from these words!

" That's a good job" LOL!
You and your Mom are going to have me saying that! So funny!

nate and amy crandell said...

hahaha you are so funny! Where do you come up with these things haha! I love your personality!

Millie said...

This was awesome! Did you post it twice? Or am I just dreaming that I already left a comment?

It makes me wonder if Book Edward ever does shower. Would he need to? We know he "venoms" but does he ever sweat or get stinky?

Did the Cullens have running water or did they just build Bella an outhouse? ;)

sweet nectar sara said...

so stinkin' funny.
loooooove the q-tip!

BTW, i assume you do these things when ted is not home? or is he sitting in the other room whilst you bathe with pocket edward?!?!?

Chad and Jessica said...

Coolness, that was almost a short film....and i loved when Pocket Edward had his arm sticking out of the suds....save me! Very funny!

Edward did need a bath since the ladies were all over him at your party....does he have a hint of Irish Spring scent? Or is it only okay for Ted to have a hint of Irish Spring?

Charisse Baldwin said...

I'm a blog stalker; however, I just had to let you know that you are hilarious!!! This is seriously one of my favorite blogs!

Thais said...

Now please come over to my blog... I think you'll enjoy my newest post. :D Seriously.

You are a spaz! lol

Cherie said...

P.S. Still calling my kiddo Mr. Hootie Pimpster - You Arizona Ghetto talk has a way of rubbing off on people who have no ghetto talk of their own - and stuff like that- ha ha

J and L Palmer said...

Alexa Mae said...

Kristin said...

RatalieNose said...

Stacey said...

It's still hilarious reading it the second time!

Happy Valentines Day to you and Ted. :)

Stacey said...

Fifty-seventh and fifty-eighth. So there.

Heffalump said...

YeeHaw!! Nothing like the smell of roses mixed with manly Irish Spring!
I think Pocket Edward needs a weekly adventure, but you should be careful or he will request that you give him his own blog. I can just see it now, "The Adventures of Pocket Edward!"

Kelsie said...

well thank you my dear for the comment! your so funny... its bout time wee edward gets a bath hes DURRRTAY!

Jen Harvey (Brenner) said...

hahaha HE LIVES!!! "Here I am my love!". Absolutely brilliant, well done, well done! Im pretty sure I just wet my pants. Wait, Im not wearing pants...I am in a towel cuz I just went tanning and I dont want to get my tanning lotion on my clothes. Yes I admit it, I FAKE BAKE!!!! True Story.

Sarah Jane said...

thanks for the comment! your right, about the nice comments thing. i'm just happy to get more than one comment on a post! haha, thanks!

Heather Perry said...

Still loving it.

I was wondering if you mind if I put a link to your blog on my next post?

Sarah Blue said...

Oh my! Pocket Edward cursed! And right in front of you! I am shocked and slightly embarassed. Book Edward would never have done that. I guess being shrunk and made from plastic isn't very conducive to keeping the same standards as one once had. I mean, this isn't the only bad thing Pocket Edward has done. He's also been quite the player! Kissing and hugging on many different women. What a sad, sad outcome. :(

Sarah Blue said...

I forgot to say: You are SO silly! And have such fun and crazy ideas. I really cannot wait to see what you'll come up with next time. And after this post, I am sure it will be something that I would never have thought of in a million years and be so entertaining that I will have laugh til I cry. But no pressure. ;)

Rheannan said...

you are so funny.

Miss Megan said...

Girl you seriously crack me up! I LOVE it! Keep the pocket Edward posts a-comin'!

Lia said...

I love your Pocket Edward posts. You are incredible, Lauren.

Camille Elise said...

I'm dying with laughter....HIL-AR-I-OUS!

aubrey said...

man, pocket edward looks studly with that irish spring shampoo on him.

Hannahkin said...

that shampoo is too much. it is running down his face... eeuw. and he has huge eyebrows, as you have stated before. still, though, he is quite a good-lookin' Moses. now where did you put those holy tablets, did you say?

No Cool Story said...

Are you kidding me? This post is so Teh Awesome FTW that's not possible!

And I totally missed it.
(I shall whine forever Lauren. 4ever.)

celestial* said...

Just discovered this 2 whole years later, and I can't decide whether your Mama and Ted's comments or the post is funnier.

You rock. Lauren.
