Best. Baby. Book. Ever. Go the Fuck to Sleep!

Just admit it. You've wanted to say this many many times...

 

I got something from The Husband last night. Something I believe that will allow him to forget my birthday this year. Honey, you are already forgiven!

THE best baby book ever. Really. If you know someone who just had a baby, or who is going to have a baby, RUN, don’t walk, and order this book for them. They will love you for it.

And it is possible that you may be saving their sanity.

If you have gone through this, the so-called sleep training, you probably have said this, nay, SCREAMED this inside your head, many many time.

WHY won’t you just SHUT THE FUCK UP and GO TO SLEEP?!

Yeah. That.

Then you probably felt guilty for screaming inside your head at your kid.

Yeah. That too.

Well, I hope this book will help absolve the sense of guilt you feel from time to time. No. You are not alone in feeling this way.

The Husband and I also really bounded overnight by staging dramatic readings of this book. I have to say, he did an awesome job in expressing the frustration. I did not realize he’s a method actor esp. when he was saying all the F word in his reading. Very convincing. Mine? Not so much.

 

Just when I thought this could not have been even more awesomer. Guess what? They have an audio version of this. Professionally done of course. Go ahead and guess who is the narrator.

Guess!

Ok. Fine. I will give you a hint.

Get out of here! Right? For real? For realz.

 

 

 

Dear Internet, I love you. That is all.

Now… for THE. BEST. THING. THAT’S. HAPPENED. ON. THE. INTERNET. Since yesterday when the world was given NPH’s opening number at the Tony Award.

Now, you know what I am going to say right?

Yup. Imma gonna go the fuck to sleep myself.

    We should alternate calling one another at 1am when our asses should be “the fuck to sleep” and instead we are up on the internetz, and do live readings!

    Damn, I almost want to borrow someone’s child! Almost. Oh hell…that is great without children. I will read it to my boyfriend when he decides, which he does frequently, that sleep is over rated.

    Some day I’m going to have enough money to hire Samuel L. Jackson to sing Black Sabbath’s IRONMAN accompanied by Andy Summers strumming his guitar while I fall off into sweet slumber.
    It’s the lullaby of champions.

    And now the Samuel Jackson version has been withdrawn and your voice and lips have become unsynced. I know that’s not the right way to say that because it sounds like it would require surgery and a voicebox.

    Never mind. You are lovely and so is your voice. What accent?

    Mother Guilt, which can never be dissipated by time, turns directly into neck wattles and age spots. I swear. Nobody told you, huh?

    Therefore, any and everything that helps assuage Mother Guilt (without harming any sentient being) is more precious than diamonds.

    This is crazy timing because I stumbled on a link to the Samuel Jackson online video and watched it about 10 minutes ago. It had me on the floor. Oh, the sheer number of times I wanted to say 100 of the things he said! It was fabulously entertaining.

    I agree. Best baby book ever. We got our pre-ordered copy in the mail yesterday. It is beautiful. We have lived through each scene. (Living through them was less beautiful.)

    Hahahahaa!! I’ve just been listening to this myself. His voice is the best ever, isn’t it? Sooo funny, and exactly what we all wish we could say sometimes.

    I sent MadamBob the link you sent me about this and she just texted me this morning to tell me Samuel L. Jackson does the narration! I’m absolutely going to get this on my phone and possibly mak it my ringer. And I don’t even have kids!!!

    Also, Im getting it for my friend Glamizon, who’s just a week less pregnant than Elly.

    Awesome book all the way around!

    For once, I feel like I actually knew about something before it became a sensation! I read this book, in actual book format, last week, and just about died laughing. Now I’m glad to see the internets talking about it so I know I’m not the only one who thinks it’s awesome.
