Don't Wake the Baby!

Another day of silence today, my 6 month old decided to wake at 4.30am.

Now you would think my wife would get the message that after the first four months of snoring through the loudest of banshee style screams that I am quite a sound sleeper.
So when I continually get the same question in the morning, “didn’t you hear the baby crying last night?” I always give the same response “If I did I would of got up and dealt with her.”

You see men are not usually built with the switch that can recognise baby distress through three, half a foot thick walls.
We are genetically programmed to hunt, protect from danger oh and scratch are balls when we wake up in the morning.
If it had of been the burglar alarm that had gone of and not the baby monitor we would have been downstairs with baseball bat in hand within a microsecond (sorry slightly longer after the obligatory scratching).

So I guess the moral here is if you want us men to react to the baby monitor, hook it up to the burglar alarm.
