This post started with just the story above, but as the day has gone on, the stories just seem to get better. I was out mowing the lawn with Devan and Tristan. I had finished the front and was starting on the back. I saw Devan was heading for the door so I went after him....I was to late. He had shut the door and locked the deadbolt behind him. I went around to all the other doors hoping that one would be unlocked. Of course they were all locked, so I then preceded to try all of the windows, no luck there either. As I was looking through windows, I noticed my bread in the oven would be done in 4 minutes. I was on a time table here! My next thought was to get a hold of Chad, but... none of the neighbors seemed to be home! I then spent the next half hour peeping through the little bit of window that wasn't covered, trying to explain to my two year old how to unlock a deadbolt. A half hour and one burnt loaf of bread later, I had succeeded! The click from the lock was the most comforting sound I thought I had ever heard. Never a dull moment in this house.

OK, so Tristan had nothing to do with it, but I'm sure he will soon enough.
Oh, and one last thing, I couldn't post new pictures because Devan broke our camera.

What a cute story!! You still make me laugh! But sorry about the bread. and for your earlier post a memory I have of you is...Hmmm you & Victoria staying up super late at my house then having the great idea of running around RHS's football field in your underwear - did I get that right??? hahaha!! Then of course I will never be worthy of you because you are indeed the President of the BCC club!!! I'm not worthy!!!! and congrats on 4 years!!
HAHAHAHA!! What a little stinker!!Guess it's time to invest in a hide-a-key!! I bet your house smelled wonderful after the bread sat in the oven for an extra half hour! :) OH boy, you are such a patient mom!!!! You crack me up with the culprit and accomplice pics...You will sure have your hands full with these two!!! But they are just SO cute I bet you can't stay mad long!! :)
Oh Bree, I have to admit, I was not patient at all. My neighbors probably thought I was a crazy woman when I was explaining to Devan how to unlock the door. And you better believe when I got in, first thing I did,well, after getting after Devan, was call Chad and have him make an extra key to hide outside. I gotta say, as frusturated as I was, this whole blogging thing is pretty therapeutic. Once I start writing about it, I start to see the humor in it :)
Those are really two great stories! Hopefully I'll learn from this. Note to self: When Paige gets older have a spare key outside! haha!
I have to say the little one looks pretty guilty even if he wasn't in on it. My sister-in-law and her friend went outside and locked 4 kids under the age of 2 inside. They had just moved into their house so everything was locked and sealed and no keys. Two hours later they broke a window and climbed in to find four bawling babies. At least your oldest one could figure out how to unlock, and if he didn't, he could have slid a credit card under the door and let you break in!
hahahahahaha....This story would've been hilarious as it was but, I love the way you tell it!! Oh and I love the pictures...Tristan looks so funny as the accomplice!!! Can't wait to see you guys!!!
Ha! I can't even imagine! So what's your plan now? Do you always leave a window unlocked? So now that you taught Devan how to do the deadbolts, does he ever unlock them? A half hour! Wow.
