Locked in

Yesterday after lunch it was time for Little Manny to take a nap. I had him go potty and of course he needed Daddy to come with him (or whoever is around at the time). After not going Manny (big) brought him into his room to put a pull up on him and I was already in there with Julian pacing to get him to sleep. Each of us (grownups) were busy and no one payed attention to Little M until we heard him lock and close his door. Yes, the lock is on the outside, facing the hallway b/c he will lock himself in sometimes and we can't get to him. So as soon as we hear the click my husband starts flipping out. He's screaming and yelling and panicking talking about breaking the door down. What am I doing the whole time you may ask....laughing. I thought/think it is the funniest thing. Oh, side note to this...the Sears guy was scheduled to arrive anytime to fix our dryer (that's a whole other story) So of course there is no phone in the bedroom, what 3 year old talks on the phone, or needs to? I don't have my cell phone on me because I don't walk around the house with it....but of course Daddy had his on his hip. I asked, about 50 times for him to give me his phone, all the while he is yelling and lecturing. I called my Dad of course because he still has a key to finish up working here, but his phone goes right to voice mail...5 times. I left a message the last time then called my mom. She had no clue where Dad was so she offered to come and let us out (thank god Manny had been outside and left the big garage door unlocked....uuuummmm was the door into the house from the garage unlocked? He thought so. While we are patiently (some of us) waiting for Mom the Sears guy calls Manny to tell him he'd be there in about 10 minutes. Ok...who would arrive first? Little Manny this whole time thought it was the greatest thing and was laughing and playing....who wants to take a nap when everyone is hanging out in his room?!? Grandma arrived first, with the Sears guy right behind her, and Dad right behind him. Thanks for a GREAT laugh Little Manny. I love you!!!
