Escape!!

Our children are truly gifts from God, however sometimes we're thrown a challenge! Tyler has been that challenge. He is very determined, very crafty, and will always find a way around any obstacle.

The latest obstacle is his crib. I had put him down for a nap one afternoon, and had gone to my room to get some laundry sorted. As I was headed downstairs I checked on Tyler to see if he was asleep, and to my surprise I see an empty crib and no Tyler. I called Amanda downstairs and asked if Tyler was down there she said yes. Hmmm, I wonder how he got out so I grab the camera and put Tyler back in bed, and a few seconds later he was back out as recorded below. Enjoy, because I sure did.....

.....Tyler now has a toddler bed.

Splish Splash

We all know why we should never leave our children unattended in the bathtub. Our child could slip and fall, hit head on spigot and need stitches, or even worse. But on occasion we step out for just a second, and this is what happened to us one fateful day.

Brent was running the bath water for Amanda, while I finished up the dinner dishes downstairs. As the bath water ran I heard the following:

Amanda: "Dad, Tyler's in the tub!!"

Brent: "Get him out!! Hurry get him out!"

Oh no, this is not good, so I grabbed the camera and ran upstairs. To my surprise I found.....

....Tyler happily playing in the tub.

Yes, fully dressed shirt, pants, diaper, socks and shoes all on and thoroughly soaked!
