I don't know why I'm even "documenting" this because its not something I want to really remember. I guess it turned out totally fine & is a little funny now. Not really, but just a tad.
Anyway, yesterday I had a really scary mommy moment. My mother-in-law came to my house to watch Grant while I went to class. She laid him down for a nap & left after I got home. (She also put away almost 3 loads of laundry, picked up dog poop, & watered my flowers-while he was napping, but thats beside the point of this post. I already know I have the BEST MIL in the world). When she was leaving, I followed her out front to water my flower pots. She had locked the door behind her (as we always do around here) then I followed her out, shutting the door behind me. She left & I watered all my pots & when I tried to come back in, I realized I was locked out & MY BABY WAS INSIDE! Everything... I mean EVERYTHING was locked. We don't mess around here... kind of silly sometimes & not good at times like this. I don't even have a hide-a-key outside because my husband is such a freak about everything. Same guy that was kind of mad when my dad bought us a garage door opener because he was just sure somebody would find a way to break in with a universal controller! lol Anway, I was freaking out & trying to just be calm & not panic. Ya right... I was panicking inside BAD! I held back tears & kept telling myself he was totally asleep & fine. I looked around & realized my phone was also inside! Now I'm really freaking out & run to 4 different neighbors houses before I found one that was home. I called Joey & my MIL several times in a row & neither would answer because they didn't recognize the number! I finally decided to leave messages in hopes they would hear it quickly. They both called back & my MIL was closer so she turned around to come save me! I ran in as fast as I could & she had to remind me that was he was probably still asleep. Sure enough, he was sound asleep! Ahhhh, thank God he was. What a day! I think I finally convinced Joey to have a hide-a-key or atleast one over at the neighbors house.
that's so funny that this happened now (maybe funny is the wrong word?). My friend just posted like 2 days ago that this happened to her and she had to go to a neighbors house and call the police to unlock her house. Her little boy was just sitting on the couch, watching cartoons!
ReplyDeleteOh goodness! This did happen to me once... Ranger can reach our door knobs and twist the lock! Not knowing it at the time, i went out the back door to turn around to a locked one! I freaked! Thankfully Carson had a key to the front door! (he was outside working). It's not a fun feeling! But humerus when all is said and done, especially because Ranger was the one to lock us out!!! :) We learned our lesson fast! :)
