Hollywood Comes to Lynnfield

Auntie Autine filmed an EF "commercial" in Zach's bedroom last week.  Her production crew came complete with a video camera and telepromter!  The commercial was a spoof on the E-Trade commercials with the baby and the voice-over.  Melissa was the "baby" in Zach's crib.  Zach, who also had a cameo performance in the commercial, did NOT enjoy the experience.  He did not like Auntie Auntie dressed as a baby and sitting in his crib, nor did he like it when I plopped him into the crib for the filming.  Please refer to the picture below of a screaming Zach.  We were a bit afraid that he'd suffered major crib trauma and wouldn't want to nap later that day; luckily, he seemed to have forgotten all about it and went to sleep just fine.  Phew!

Here's the back of her pajamas

The full effect

Climbing into the crib - she's going to kill me for this shot.  Sorry, lady.  Payback, baby.

Trying to reassure Zach that all is still right with the world

The actual filming

Getting mad at the number of photos that I'm snapping

Zach's performance

Oh, the drama!

He's not acting, either

Good gravy

  1. I am almost in tears I am laughing so hard. I love Melissa in that thing and that looked like one unending scream Zach had going on (I love the one where she is looking away and trying not to laugh in his hysterical face).

  2. Where do we get to see the finished product?? This whole thing is hysterical - Melissa in her custom-made baby get up and the never-ending WAHHHHH of Zach while Melissa goes through an interesting gamut of reactions (finally looking like "really??"). Love it
