In honor of the Birthday Boy...

Here's a side of the Farns I'll bet few if any of you have seen before...

Well, actually most of you have probably seen at least a picture of him holding a tarantula--but what is so strange about this one? He's wearing sweats. The Farns never wears sweats. I have a hard time dating pictures of him by himself because he's always wearing a long-sleeved oxford blue button-up shirt and khakis.

Danielle mentioned that her now 3-year-old hangs out in his underwear all day on her blog. I replied by reporting that, no, it's not that unusual because my now 29-year-old husband does the very same thing as much as he possibly can. He often complains that I never take any pictures of him and that our children will never know what their father looked like when we were young because of it. Well, that's because he's always in his dang underwear every time he's doing something I'd take a picture of!

So, he found his own solution to that one. Though this is a side of the Farns I'll bet none of you ever cared to see. Right here, father of my child, folks...

Yes, if you've been following us for any length of time, that's the father of my child wearing my robe as featured here. My pink, fluffy robe. I finally found and brought home my heavier white terry cloth robe, and that's the one he's wearing in the sympathy voice video. But, for his birthday I was able to track down a nice, manly, blue, light-weight robe (which could not be found in a store to save my life!) that he'll be able to wear all year long and have heaps of pictures taken in.

Ain't no other man like mine, just no denying it.

Happy Birthday, Farns-o-Larns!

Only a man who is supremely confident in his masculinity would wear a robe like that, much less allow himself to be photographed in it. You both seem to be quite confident of people (witness the pictures we occasionally see on your blog).

Happy birthday Grant. You gettin' old.

I'm gettin' old too. I am turning 27 this year. What is up with that?

But he looks so happy in the pink robe. It's almost a shame to make him wear a different color. However, I for one am glad you don't post pics of Grant in his underwear. We have to draw the line somewhere.

posting pictures of a 3 year old in underwear = adorableness

posting pictures of a man in his underwear = creepy

Graaaant! Your wife makes us miss you, the way she describes your peculiarities. Ashley, thanks for describing Grantastic as we all know and love him. So, when are the Farnisity Farnses moving West?!?

Happy Birthday old man, how old are you anyway, 29? Yeah right, who believes anyone when they say THAT?

It's a day late and a dollar short, but many happy returns to the Farnsworths, especially in celebrating the cosmic event of Grant's birth. The world is better for him.
