so sneaky!

Miles knows that he can watch Blue's Clues at 7 am if he does not get up and yell (well, scream) in the middle of the night. Miraculously this has worked all week. He's also supposed to look at the alarm clock in his room and make sure it's at least 6 before coming in our bed. It was 5:45 this morning, but we let it slide.

From 5:45 on he was wide awake, rolling on me, rolling on Justin, and pestering us to watch Blue's Clues. "No Miles. It's not 7:00". He knows exactly when the clock on the cable box says 7:00 mind you. Oh, this just happens to be the first night since I don't know when that Liam hasn't woken up to eat yet, so I would have loved a little more sleep.

I don't know how the child did this in the pitch dark, but he took the remote and was messing with buttons. Next thing I hear, "Hey mommy. Look! It's seven-zero-zero on the clock". That little sneak had somehow managed to push 700 with the remote to make it look like 7:00. I almost fell for it until I noticed the : was missing between the numbers! Is it bad that our 2.5 year old is already conniving? This goes along with his latest trend; "Mommy may I please have a cookie?", "Mommy may I please stay up 5 more minutes?". Good thing he's so darn cute.
