Silly Boy

Let the record reflect that for the first time in his existence, Alton pulled the wool over his baby sitter's eyes and convinced them to let him stay up waaaay past his bed time. He was 5 days shy of being 20 months old!

Travis's Aunt Laurel and Uncle Larry watched Alton when we went out for dinner and dessert for Valentine's Day. We went out, had great food and fabulous dessert. We got home after 10 o'clock and imagine my surprise when upon returning home, Larry greeted us and I heard someone answer Laurel. It was not Larry, Travis or myself.

So I went into my bedroom, where Alton and Auntie Lala were cozied up and watching Robin Hood.

Auntie Lala said, "We tried to put him to bed and he just kept letting himself out of his room." (We have child proofing door knob protectors. Le sigh. That was not money well spent. Thankfully they were free from Harrison's mommy Rose.) "Then he climbed into your bed and started pointing at the TV. When I put the movie on, he kept patting the bed next to him, so I sat and watched it with him."

He was still WIDE awake. So Travis took him to take the baby sitters home. He did finally fall asleep in the car on the way to San Pedro. Then he slept until 8 this morning. :)
