Sneaky Pete


Back when Lilly would "really" sleep!



Our little Lilly has become a "Sneaky Pete!"

Last night, Brian brought her upstairs for "night night" time. He read "Wheels on the Bus", "Mr. Brown Can Moo" and "Dr. Suess's ABC An Amazing Alphabet Book" the required 3 times each. The Bug was still wide awake so he turned off the lights and pretended to sleep.

Lilly laid down next to him and also pretended to sleep. After a few minutes, she got up, peered into his face to see if he was sleeping (his eyes were closed), poked him in the face a few times and when there was no response, she preceded to inch herself off the bed ....and then she got caught.

So Brian read the books again and pretended to sleep. This time Lilly waited 10 minutes, checked to see that Daddy was asleep and then slid off the bed, out of the room and towards the stairs in hopes of finding Chillly.

Brian called Chilly who was downstairs and she ran up the stairs to find Lilly waiting at the top for her!

Hopefully, this will be the only "sneaking out" Lilly does...EVER.

Good luck if you think that's the only sneaking out to be had. If she's anything like a Tinaves - there are many long days ahead!

What the heck is a "sneaky pete"? North Dakota country bumpkin term?
