Night Owl Reading


Tunk, Thunk, Tunk, Thunk,
bah, bah, ma, da da da da, bah, bah, ma, ma da,
Tunk, Thunk, Thunk, Tunk

This is the sound I woke up to this morning.  I thought, it must be almost 5:30AM...Parker's ready for his medicine. 

Tunk, Tunk, Thunk,

So I got up and stumbled into the kitchen, I realized it was darker than it has been at 5:30 AM but I figured it was due to another rain storm going through.

When I looked at the clock imagine my surprise when I saw 3:12 AM!!!  So I made a bottle and started into Parker's room.....still half asleep, when WHACK! I ran right into a clothes basket with my shin....Who does that?  Who leaves a clothes basket in the middle of the hallway!  So naturally, I yelped, which resulted in a bottom lip coming out (of Parker) and the makings of a potential melt down...however, we were able to prevent such a melt down.

So when I did walk into Parker's room this is what I found:  Parker sitting up in his crib, with a softie book that he had grabbed from his toy bin next to his crib, pulled through the rungs, and was "reading" it to us through the monitor...


These pictures are a reenactment of our 3AM shenanigans.  I didn't want to risk hitting my shin again in order to get the camera in the middle of the night!
Parker does sleep in P.J.'s, but he pooped through them this morning, which explains the naked baby photos.

This was one time I wished we had "hidden cameras" in our house, I'm sure the events of this early morning would win us some money on America's Funniest Home Video!
