My mini tv

My mini tv is pretty neat. Most of the time, the only programing it brings in is reality. Most of the time these reality shows are comedies. Sometimes there's a drama on but those don't last long. The programing is unscripted- no writer could ever compete with the imagination of a child who doesn't want to go to bed. If you haven't already guessed, my little tv is my baby monitor.

Today I was in for a treat as this is Matthew's first day without the side on his bed. This is still an experiment. We don't trust Matthew totally yet. He is enjoying the freedom and a certain amount of climbing in and out was to be expected. He did fall trying to get back in once and immediately trotted down two flights of stairs so he could get the kiss for his boo boo. The most entertaining aspect of this adventure was when he got out of bed and started making faces in the monitor camera, then moved the camera around capturing a variety of different views in the room.

When he set the monitor back down it wasn't pointing to anything particular. It was also no longer pointed to him. I had to run and check on him because though I was getting a lovely picture of only the back wall, the sounds were not as peaceful.
