Funny story with Slappy

on December 19, 2013

So I am getting this story 2nd and 3rd hand from Logan and Slappy but hopefully the details will be close to accurate. Logan, Aunt Linzy, Slappy, Elliot, and Charlotte went out on Tuesday to shop and visit Granny. Logan and Linzy went into a store and briefly left their children in the capable hands of Slappy in Slappy’s truck. Whilst they were gone, Charlotte was rolling her head and bumped in into something causing her to cry. At the same time, Elliot managed to put on Linzy’s big Old Navy Lady glasses and was attempting to extract his blanket from the door, his face turning red and all the while screaming “Night night! stuck!”

“That sounds hilarious! Did you get a picture?” I asked Slappy, to which he replied, “I barely survived!”

Linzy sent this picture as an idealistic representation of the afternoon.

“Good babies”

The Toddler bed is still an issue, although becoming less so. Logan and I are able to get him to sleep if we lie with him for only ~25 minutes, instead of the hour it was at first. He still screams at us for awhile, which conveniently makes him tired and seems to help him go to sleep but does not do much for our parenting egos. Hopefully things will continue to improve.

“He did that himself. I just tucked the blankets in around him some.” – Logan

Elliot will always remember how much his Slappy liked Monster Trucks!
