lessons from the trenches

So...two Fridays ago, we left the boys and GG with my baby sister to go out for a date. We have this terrible habit of laying the baby to sleep for naps on a bed surrounded by pillows. Terrible, as we know good and well the crib is the absolute safest place for her. Well on this evening, we left and my baby sister was upstairs printing something out on the computer really quickly and had intended to jot back downstairs to the room the baby was napping in...

Well, minutes after my husband and I arrived at our event, we get a text from my sister asking if we left the baby on the floor? "huh? nooooo" She said she asked because this is how she found GG, sleeping, quite SOUNDLY and SNORING LOUDLY TO BOOT!
This is the photo text message my sister sent us that night! YIKES!

poor child. Thank God babies these days and ages have pliable bones and apparently Guardian angels to protect them from dimwitted parents and caregivers! Bless the beast and the children indeed! ha!

Well LESSONS LEARNED! From her share of topples and turns, THIS PARTICULAR BABY no longer falls over edges. Instead, if she awakens to find herself surrounded by pillows on a bed, she shouts, "EHHH!! EHHHH!!!" that's baby talk for "IDIOTS! SOMEBODY! COME PICK ME UP!!" haha!
