Public Service Announcement

As if a commonsensical parent would need another reason . . . do not allow your baby to play with the alarm clock because then he might turn on the alarm, re-set it for 5:45 a.m., and turn the volume up to the maximum. Then when you and he wake up to the sounds of a rock concert, he will refuse to go back to sleep even though you feel like you've been run over by a truck because it is so early in the morning and you've had a horrible night's sleep, as always.

  1. ROFLOL Bless your heart! Yes, even without particular knowledge of appliances of any kind little ones somehow have an innate sense for pushing the right buttons in the correct sequence to activate something totally destructive (in this case your alarm clock and your sleep). Maybe you can nap today.

    May I suggest the two of you take a nap together today (the laundry will be there tomorrow)?

Also, and this is for when they get more industrial, *do not* leave your thermometer on your nightstand after logging temps b/c little 2yo *MAY* stick them in a little crevice in the treadmill where it will remain until you lose a second and third..."okay Joseph, tell me where you put one of these yesterday!" - and he lead me straight to the treadmill. Brain damage!
