CAUSE MOMDY WANTS TO BE COOL....

I wanted to start some traditions with these grandboys of mine. For birthdays I have decided to give the number of b-days in dollar bills and a book. I did not want it to be lame and you all assured me that it would not be....but I wanted to MAKE SURE! I mean for reals...I want to be the COOL ONE! lol

So this is the first book I chose....Walter the Farting Dog by William Kotzwinkle and Glenn Murray. Yep! You read that RIGHT! Farting Dog!!

I am a VERY frugal person. I ALWAYS use coupons, shop thrift stores and garage sales but when it comes to books.....oooohhh mmyyyyy....I will spend money!


Description from North Atlantic Books:
Warning: This book may cause flatulence
. Walter is a fine dog, except for one small problem: he has gas. He can't help it; it's just the way he is. Fortunately, the kids Billy and Betty love him regardless, but Father says he's got to go! Poor Walter, he's going to the dog pound tomorrow. And then, in the night, burglars strike. Walter has his chance to be a hero. Destined to become a children's classic, this story will have kids rolling on the floor with laughter. Adults are permitted to laugh too.

But I wanted to make this book personal....just for J1. So I altered the book's front and back to fit him. This is what I did....

  7. oh yes, you do rock. What a great and wonderful Momdy you are!
    We loved that book. In fact someone gave it to us with the stuff walter that farts, and we wore his farter out before Sam was even old enough to get the humor of it. Because we're so grown up that way...

  9. Love the picture additions! I sent this book, and a stuffed farting dog, as a surprise gift to my (gassy) little niece several years ago. A well loved and squeezed farting stuffed dog who visited school for show and tell. Wish I could have been there to see the teacher's face!!!
