My husband is going to get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I find this 7 ft and some inches (however tall he is) lifesize cardboard cut-out in good condition up for sell on eBay. It's EXACTLY what we were looking for. M. Jordan is holding a ruler next to him so you can measure how tall you are up to him. How cool will our son be with all the boys on the block one day. Everybody wants to be like Mike! ...so the song goes. So, we win the auction. Time goes by. My husband forgets to tell me that it arrives. Mr. J goes to the field overnight and I've left alone with the dogs and baby J. It's 4 a.m., and I hear lil J crying so I race downstairs with my boppy to comfort him. Again, it's early in the morning and super dark. I open the door and feel my heart hit the floor. ACKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There's a 7' PLUS african american man standing over my baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOODNESS. I THROW MY BOPPY AT HIM AS HARD I COULD!!!! A few seconds pass ...and my eyes adjust to the light and I notice what I just knocked out with my boppy. I HATE MY HUSBAND! My heart is starting to race yet again as I think back to what happened this morning. All I could think is poor Jordan. If I was that scared of this huge giant... I can't imagine what this looked like in the dark. I'd be horrified. It's now behind his door (further away from the crib) Good grief. Mr. J will be ragging on me for the next few months when I tell him about this. |

Here it is. A lot scarier in the dark. 
 |
ROFLMAO! I can imagine how badly you freaked out, but what made me laugh out loud was you throwing the Boppy at him 
Lark PS Michael Jordan comes from this area so I can understand the obsession! |
| LOL.... what is a boppy? LOL |
a pillow (shaped like the letter "U") that goes around your waist to breastfeed or used to help the baby sit up/learn to sit up.  |
LMFAO!!!!  What a hilarious story!!!!I bet hubby set him perfectly too scare the poo right out of ya!! I hate when certain people that live in this house ~wink wink~ leave stuff where it doesnt go.I remember once Bob left his winter coat hanging over the door,I woke up in the middle of the night and I saw this I sware I felt my life disappear right in front of me!!!One quick note....ISNT EBAY THE BOMB!!!!!!!  |
|
Yes, I buy everything from my hair supplies, kid's clothes, puppy pads (300 for $19 bucks), makeup, to all my christmas supplies (wrapping paper/tape/etc). I AM SO ADDICTED. I feel empty when I'm not bidding on something. |
| hehe, It would have scared me to death too! |
| Ohhh poor brave you!! Hee hee.....I can't stop visualizing the image you portrayed so well when writing about this incident. Gasp! That's hilarious and I'm glad you have revived enough to tell us about it.
Now..how are you going to get back at him? >>Inquiring minds want to know! Marianne and the boys |
|
I really do need to get him back! He's always doing this kind of stuff to me. The most I come up with is "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" ...as he comes around the corner. Creative, I know. |
Wait till Bubby Jordan is older then see what Mr. J brings home LOL from a mom of 2 boys. Thank goodness mine have grown up now Boy I have some stories of what my Mr. E. has got over the years for the boys  You know, IT gets worse as they get older  |
| LMAO... You killed him with a boppy
How funny.....but I am sure you were scared to death. My wonderful hubby loves to creep up on me all the time. I am amazed I haven't had a heart attack yet. |
Pepsi's Mommy wrote: killed him with a boppy Yup! She probably hit him square in the knee. |
| That's a funny story. Your baby is adorable. Can you believe I've never bought anything on ebay. |
| HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Has your heart stopped pounding yet?????? |
| Poor Jo!! I don't blame you, I'd have been petrified, too!!
Wonder if Michael has ever been assaulted with a boppy before?? |
| Hehe! Good story! I have a similar story so I can relate.
There is a coat hanger on the wall (really high up) in the hallway and it hangs up in the corner. AND!
My husband likes to hang up his work outfits and shirt/pants clothes on it instead of coats... and sometimes in the dark it looks like there is someone standing there in the hall way and it always freaks me out hehe. I wish I could throw something at him sometime. |
| LMAO
Years ago Mom took me and Pandy (the Tibetan Terrier) to her office. Pandy disappeared and I went to look for her. I found her roaming in my Mom's coworker's office. She looked up and was startled by none other than the 7 FT CARDBOARD MICHAEL JORDAN!!! She then proceeded to poop in front of him! He scared the poop out of her! |

Brad likes to do that too - when he did it the first time I was walking out of the bathroom.  He ended up on the floor because I nailed him in the gut hehe. He actually had the audacity to get mad at me for hitting him. |
| Hug!!!!
I completely feel your pain! Except that I have no baby to worry about yet... but take comfort in the fact that it wasn't actually a real person... Here's what happened to me: It was while Mike was still stationed over in Bosnia. At that point i was living in our apartment by myself, and I NEVER slept well at night when Mike was gone. I ALWAYS kept the door locked and the security chain engaged. not because our building was particularly dangerous, it wasn't but I don't feel safe without Mike around. It was about 4 in the morning, and out of a deep sleep I'm jolted out of bed by the horrendous sound of someone trying to break into my apartment! I was terrified! Here I am, alone- sans 3rd degree black belt fiancee, in my apartment, and someone is trying to get in and rape me!!!!! So what do I do? Call the police? Heck no- I grab all the blankets off my bed, wrap myself up in them (after all who wants to rape a giant pile of blankets right?) grab a knife from the kitchen and scream "what do you want?!!!!!" Well, it turns out it was the building super, NOT someone trying to break into my apartment. My fish tank filter had started to leak, and the water had dripped down into my floor below neighbors TV, ruining it. He explained the situation to me through the door- I was still so shook up that I wouldn't let him in the apartment, and I delt with the mess myself, mopping up all the water, and eventually buying my neighbor a new tv Next time, I'll probably call the police instead of relying on the blankets for protection
I think would have preferred the Michael Jordan stand up... |
| How scary! I am always imagining things in the dark, so I can only imagine what a real-looking human sized object would have done to me! You have permission to hurt your husband! |
| BTW, how did that come packaged? Was it the biggest package ever? |
| I love all your stories. I can't believe someone else has had a run-in with another 7' M.Jordan. Makes the whole incident a LITTLE better. Seriously, I don't think I've ever screamed so loud AND LONG. He looked SO REAL.
I have such a love/hate relationship with being scared to death. It's fun/funny yet I get so pissed at the same time. The cut-out actually has a place in the middle it folds in half, and the stand that holds it up ...breaks down so it's all flat. Shipping.. uh... well... it cost $60 bucks to get up here. Again, we REALLY wanted this. You can't find this in stores and it's a definite collectors item. |
Iriskmj, Mr. J goes back to Iraq for another YEAR in October. I'm not sure how I will be able to handle it. I FREAK out when I'm alone and shows like COPS is on. I know that sounds weird but I have an over-active imagination. A movie that wasn't scary suddenly gets in my head and becomes terrifying. haha Before, I had a roommate and I was in college... this time i will be in a huge house alone.  |
| I have the perfect get Mr.J back.......... Leanne sit your hubby w/ candle lite dinner and tell your expecting again!!  Let him soak it in,give it an hour or so then say hehe!just joshin ya!! |
| Too funny, I'd be scared too esp not knowing it was there.
My scare story, had to work at 3:00am at a bakery, and I am alone until 6 am. On my way in my car, the town is dead quiet. I pull up to an intersection, and stop. but out of nowhere two guys dressed in all black, on bicycles, come to my window and bang on it. I paniced and drove off, I didn't go to work...not wanting them to know where I worked. Instead I start to go towards the local police station. They catch up to me at a red light....of course I am stopped. This time i roll the window down a crack and asked what do you want. The man says, "I'm sorry to have scared you, but I am a police officer and your headlights are off, please turn them on"...the other guy, on a radio saying "yes we caught up to her, it's okay". I said, "sorry, and yes you scared me, your dressed in all black and I can't tell that your a cop....as I also put my seatbelt on.... , and turned my lights on..."
He asked where I was going, I said to the bakery at the grocery store, he completely understood my panic, the building has numerous breakins...we were advised to work in pairs, and soon after we had an extra girl to cover the daytime, so two could be on a night. |
|
That would be so funny ...esp. his reaction. He's be devastated!!! I don't think I'd be able to keep a straight face. He gets really depressed already thinking of him missing his son's first birthday let alone the birth of another baby. I may tell him that tonight and follow it up with just kidding after a few minutes.  |
| Jo & Tanya,
It has to be twins!!! I was thinking of suggesting that earlier.... Evil minds think alike.... HA HA HA!! |

LMAO!!!!!  <<<<<Mr.J <<<<me,Elissa,Leanne!!!LMAO!!Tanyathenurse |
