Connor: Dad, there's a piece of shrimp on my plate.
Me: (Looking down at my plate of braised steak, mashed potatoes and broccoli) But I didn't make any shrimp.
Connor: Look!
Me: Dude, that's your tooth.
Oh, and thanks to Becky at Steam me up, Kid I finally figured out why my follower numbers have been going crazy. Talking slowly and using lots of crayon drawings, Becky explained to me that I made it onto Blogger's Blogs of Note list. So a big thanks to Becky for her patience and to Blogger who looked at this out of shape, unemployed hack of a blogger who may or may not have shaved this morning and said, ya, this guy's a player.

Oooo how much did the tooth fairy give him? Around my house it is £1 (or at least it will be when LaLa starts losing teeth)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the tooth, Dude..
ReplyDeleteAnd congrats on blog of note, don't they let you know?
We have his toothless twin brother living at our house-- too funny. Now I'll have to post that tonight or tomorrow!
ReplyDeletecongrats ont eh blog of note...very cool. and tot he little one on losing his tooth!
ReplyDeleteShrimp teeth!
ReplyDeleteWoot! That post had some teeth to it. Ha!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, O Noteworthy Dude!
What kinda shrimp you got up there in Canada? I've seen alot of teeth in my day, and none of them looked like shrimp. Hmmmmf.
ReplyDeleteThis just goes to confirm my theory that shrimp are actually just live teeth. Arrrrrgh, my teeth are moving!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Loosing teeth is such a riot. Punkette has plucked out 7 since last summer. I guess I should stop bustin her chops.
ReplyDeleteA looong time ago, I told a bunch of kindergarteners standing in the lunch line: "your teeth come out because you've been kissing girls or boys. That's what happens." The entire group, at the same time, covered their mouths with their hands so not to let me see their toothlessness.
ReplyDeleteI'm so mean. But it was cute.
awesome! congrats on the B.O.N and little man's tooth. How much did that tooth cost ya? Teeth seem to be more expensive in this house than they were back in the day when she used to come visit me! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteWell congratulations to Connor! Does Canada have the tooth fairy? :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on Blogs of Note!
What you failed to mention is that the day you were selected was the day I posted for you. Because it's all about me, dude.
ReplyDeleteI would just like to say I was a fan before you became famous. I even have a t-shirt from your first tour. Or some blog equivalent.
ReplyDeleteSo my little one has her first loose tooth. What is going rate for the Tooth Fairy?
ReplyDeleteYou are going big time ~ props to ya. Please don't forget the little people.
So lucky it fell on his plate instead of being swallowed. I ate a tooth in the lunchroom in 3rd grade and still feel the pain- the monetary loss!
ReplyDeleteThe fact that he is confusing shrimp and teeth is disturbingly hilarious! Ohh and the Tooth Fairy gets to bring pretty monies!! I wish we had pretty money...
ReplyDeleteWhoa. Not a shrimp tooth!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the Blog of Note shout out. And I thought it was Chief. Oh well.
You are important now!!
congrats on blog of note;)
ReplyDeleteits a toothe..lol
Wow! He didn't even know it was loose? How cute. I can say that because it wasn't sitting on my plate.
ReplyDeleteGreat pic! What a handsome kid!
ReplyDeleteAnd you made it onto Blogs of Note? That's like a HUGE honor. Way to go!
A tooth that looks like a shrimp?
ReplyDeleteI'll check out that link for the list. Congrats!
My son just recently lost his two front teeth and now the eye teeth on either side are loose! He is going to be gumming food like an old man soon.
ReplyDeleteCute picture!
Point the first, ew, and point the second, RAD!
ReplyDeletesounds like a great day all around - congrats to you & yours
ReplyDeleteooh, congrats on the blog of note - hope the tooth fairy pays a good rate at your house!
ReplyDeleteHow do you normally cook shrimp that they get mistaken for teeth?
ReplyDeleteAnd congrats! That's something awesome!
I'll send you donuts if you send me one of those amazing looking ham/mac and cheese sandwhiches! :)
ReplyDeleteDude, am I even aloud to comment here since you are such a celebrity now? Just kidding. Well, I guess I am only jealous in reality...
ReplyDeleteCongrats for real.
Shrimp for teeth. That's a Kodak moment. LOL.
well, now that you are blog of note, I hope you remember us followers from way back when! Can I get a Woot! Woot! for your blogging success.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I am from Texas, but NOT a hick, but I fell a HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW coming on for ya.
Congrats on the tooth and the recognition.
Wooo Hoo a tooth! Note: Never let your child see Hellboy 2 before losing their first tooth. We've had a tough time getting James to believe that the tooth fairy leaves money and doesn't eat people.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being a blog of note. Don't forget us little folks
Yea, Connor! And Captain, you get to be the tooth fairy!
ReplyDeleteAnd, seems to me Blogger was a little late to the party.
Think of all the stuff he can squirt through that hole now.
ReplyDeleteWow- I want to be a BON!!! How'd you do that???
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the kid comment. This is exactly why I don't eat shrimp. You just never know what it really is...
I'm just blown away that your kid will eat broccoli.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the big numbers. We can say we knew you when.
I can only hope that your children get their teeth from their mothers side....our side...not so pretty!!
ReplyDeleteBig congrats on the Blogs of Note - so deserved!
ReplyDeleteHey, what did your son get for his farm raised shrimp? That must have been one funky looking tooth to look like a shrimp.
Damn! Look at all those followers. Don't forget us little people on your meteoric rise to fame. Wow - I spelled meteoric right on the first try!
ReplyDeleteIs that the first lost tooth? So cool.
blogs of note is a worth distinction, as your blog is just that.
ReplyDeleteshaven or not, you are, indeed, a player, my friend. your posts always make me laugh. keep up the good work.
don't eat that shrimp! :)
ReplyDeleteblogs of note was also how i found this place & its certainly a deserved recognition
I actually found you on Harriett' blog. I think. Anyway, I have a feeling my son's first lost tooth will be a lot more dramatic and bloody than that.
ReplyDeleteEwwww! Shrimp!? Ewwww!!! I hope the tooth fairy treated him well. Congrats on being a blog of note. You deserve it 110%!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, O Noteworthy Dude!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! My faughter lost her tooth yesterday, the third one.
ReplyDelete-->Suggestion to your son, when asked what happened to his tooth he says he was playing hockey and headbutted the other player. It's actually funny in the States but...may be taken literally in Canada. ;-)

ReplyDeletehaha, that's hilarious and so sweet.
ReplyDeletecongrats on the tooth and being a blog of note :)
His tooth! OMG!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute grin! Did you get to play tooth fairy? How much is the going rate now?
ReplyDeleteYou're quite welcome, and congrats again, Cap'n.
ReplyDeleteThe front tooth as well! That's a milestone!!
ReplyDeleteD'oh, I noticed last week that you were on Blogs of Note. I didn't make the connection from what you were saying. I guess I've really got it going on, eh?
ReplyDeleteSo, how much you givin' the kid for that big shrimp?
What kind of shrimp do you eat that can be mistaken for a child's tooth? You need to prawn up, my friend.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the blog of note! How much does the Canadian toothfairy leave?
ReplyDeleteThat looks like one valuable tooth!! (Hey, I'm working for the kid.)
ReplyDeleteWTH? :D
ReplyDeleteI would really like to know how the tooth 'reached' the plate all by itself?
Oh, and congrats on the 'Blog of Note', of course... :)
