Duck

One of BB’s early words has been ‘duck’ – as in ‘stuck’, not the animal. Duck in the high chair, duck in the car seat, duck in your arms, duck getting out of buggy etc.

Well she really got duck today. Hear shouting and knocking on her door this morning about 7.15,, went up to find she had managed to lock herself in. (She sleeps in what is basically a bathroom, so it has a lock on the door. It ones of those lock/catch things that screw on the ouside of the door, rather than being fitted into the door, and it has slidy catch thing, that I’d forgotten about as we never used.

A bit oworrying as BB was the otherside wailing by this time. The bit the catch goes into was only screwed to the outisde of the frame, but it took a fair bit of kicking to get it to open (if it has been in the frame it would have been much harder). Helen was wondering about taking SB up a ladder and putting her through the window…..

The door did open rather forcefully, as part of the bit fixed to the frame broke rather than the screw pulling out. Luckily, BB had had enough sense to go back ino the room with the banging on the door so it just missed here.

time to check other possibly locking doors methinks…

SB was in the room next door asleep, with the door open. Did she notice a thing…..?
