Last week while Brett was out of town, I had a 3 AM alarm incident. When we bought Abby's baby monitor, it came with a motion detector. The motion detector is suppose to alarm when it can't sense the baby's breathing, to help prevent SIDS. (I know, we're paranoid parents.) Anyway, at 3 AM in the morning the alarm went off and being startled from my sleep, I jumped out of bed panicked. This is no quiet alarm. I made a jolt for Abby's room and...WHAM! In my panicked and tired state of mind, I ran right smack into our bedroom door, thinking that I had left it open. Ouch! When I got to Abby's room, she was sleeping peacefully. Her crib is elevated because of her acid reflux, so she had slid down in the crib and off the monitor. Moral to the story: don't run into closed doors, it hurts and I had a puffy lip to prove it. How embarrassing!

Ha ha. I didn't even know they had motion detectors on baby monitors. Who would have thought? I am sorry about the puffy lip. Are you going to post a picture of that????
Forgot to take a pic of the lip, I should have though.
I am glad you can laugh at yourself!
