What was my husband thinking when he wasn’t thinking?
Our house was unusually quiet for a mid-afternoon, so I asked my husband where our toddler son was.
Kyle? Yes, Kyle — our youngest child, our only son, where is he? Uhm, well, Kyle fell asleep during our bike ride, so I, well, uhm, left him in the carrier. You mean you left our son attached to the back of your bike? Alone? Unattended? Yeah…. No…. Ken was shuffling his answer and his feet. Did you take the carrier off? Uhm, well, no but I put the kickstand down. The kickstand? Yeah, I stayed in the backyard and watered the flowers. You mean to tell me that you left our son sleeping on the back of your bike with the kickstand down??? What if it would have tipped over? Debbie! Do you think I am nuts? I didn’t only use the kickstand! I leaned him against the house, too!
(It was difficult but I did not respond to the “do you think I’m nuts thing”. Needless to say, I rescued our little tike — but not until snapping this photo. I hate to admit it, but the whole thing cracked me up.)
Love it! That’s so cute. Our son has fallen asleep in his, too.
ha ha ha ha ha ha.
oh i cannot stop laughing.
i love that.
i seriously love it.
That is hysterical! I saw your comment on Bliss in Bloom’s site. Your blog is great. I’ll be back!:)
Amy:)
OH NO!!! i am not sure i would have been able to hold my tongue on the “do you think i am nuts?!”
i would have been all up and down him with YESes!!
it does make for a good blog post, first college girlfriend story, wedding toast and words of advice for when HE is a father of what NOT to do.
Bwaa hahaha ha ha
really GREAT post…poor man.
Men. Of course I could totally see myself doing that as well, while I was watering the flowers and weeding.
So sounds like something Jon would do…I LOVE that you took a picture before you took him out!!
Haha, that is so cute!! I love the picture.
Thanks for stopping by yesterday!
“Debbie! Do you think I am nuts? I didn’t only use the kickstand! I leaned him against the house, too!” LOL–OK, that is funny (in a Yikes sort of way)!
Another testament to the testosterone-type parenting seeming to lack a certain something…
Like common safety sense.
LOL
That is hilarious. I don’t know what the problem is. It sounds like he had everything covered. HAHA!
Thanks for stopping by our place!
Love the photo! I would have done the same thing! ( taking the photo; not leaving the kid in his bike seat!)
Thanks for stopping by my blog; glad you liked the grapefruit-bacon grease container!
