Tyler Tater Tot Casserole Recipe. No, not a dinner\u00a0side dish.\u00a0 Instead, the\u00a0name my son insisted on being called when he and Sissy were little and playing \u201chouse.\u201d And for the record, no, I never made a tater tot casserole so I have noooo idea where the name came from.<\/em> But you had to say the name out like that, no nicknames: Tyler Tater Tot Casserole Recipe.\u00a0 A bit of a mouthful, yes?! Guck, guck, guck.<\/em><\/p>\n

Also during these \u201chouse\u201d sessions, Tyler Tater Tot Casserole Recipe would star as the zero-baby. What\u2019s a \u201czero-baby\u201d you ask? Well, as the name clearly implies, a \u201czero-baby\u201d is a baby not yet a year old.\u00a0 Duh.\u00a0 As such, zero-baby can barely sit up on his own, definitely can\u2019t walk, and therefore must always be dragged (drugged?!) across the hardwood floors while sitting precariously perched on a blanket.\u00a0 If you pull too quickly on the blanket?\u00a0 Yep.\u00a0 Drugged melon head goes over.\u00a0 Always.\u00a0 Every time.\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n

And what happens if Tyler Tater Tot Casserole Recipe finds himself on carpet? He needs to be pushed around in a plastic laundry basket.\u00a0 Until that one time\u2026when Sissy, starring as the mini-mother of Tyler Tater Tot Casserole Recipe, came up with the brilliant idea to send her darling zero-baby sledding.\u00a0 In the plastic laundry basket.\u00a0 Down the carpeted stairs.\u00a0 To keep him company on his long trip, she also placed a hard-shelled, primary-colored, smiley-caterpillar-that-sang-the-alphabet in the basket then warned them both sternly to stay seated.<\/p>\n

All precautions handled, can you imagine l\u2019il mom\u2019s surprise when the whole shebang quickly went to hell in a laundry basket?! Imagine.\u00a0 Murphy\u2019s Law — activate! — and after the initial \u201cpush\u201d down the \u201chill,\u201d Tyler Tater Tot Casserole Recipe slammed into the balusters.\u00a0 The edge of the laundry basket caught, skewed him sideways and sent him ricocheting between wall and stair railing down to about Step 8 when the big ol\u2019 melon went wonky\u00a0and it was arse over teakettle the rest of the way down.\u00a0 At some point smiley caterpillar entered the mix and slammed into Tyler Tater Tot Casserole Recipe\u2019s mouth leaving him swollen-lipped and bleeding by the time the sleigh ride was over.<\/p>\n

For the record, it was\u00a06:30 on a Sunday MORNING…and I was in BED…SLEEPING, and only caught the open mouthed wailing that happened on the tail end.\u00a0 Prior to that, I vaguely recall hearing Sissy shout, \u201chang on!\u201d and a lot of thumping and bumping noises.\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Anyway, where I\u2019m going with all of this is that Sonny just recently announced the name he has chosen for his second son: Cornelius. Don\u2019t know why, don\u2019t know how, but I\u2019m hoping his wife will step in at some point and sort things out.<\/em><\/p>\n

He\u2019s been considering the name of the second son since he came up with the name of his first son a few years ago: Hot Daniel. Nope, yep, nope. I\u2019ve got no idea.\u00a0 Ditto don\u2019t know why\/how\/wife comment above.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n

And the names of his daughters? Sheila and Turtle.<\/p>\n

Hmmm. Just about what you\u2019d expect from a boy called Tyler Tater Tot Casserole Recipe.<\/p>\n

P.S.\u00a0 I forgot to mention that if there’s a THIRD son, he’ll either be named Derrick,\u00a0John or…Juggernaut.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
