Well, that was interesting. It’s amazing how much sound a towel rack can make when it falls off the wall in the middle of the night. Assuming that Josh was awake and trying to find something to play with (as 2 year-olds will sometimes do), I barged into his room, and scared the bejeezus out of him. Of course, when I realized he hadn’t made the noise, I started to get a bit nervous too.
So I started around the house turning every light on to see if I could figure out what had made the “bump, whack, clang!” noise. Eventually I wandered back to the hallway where the bedrooms are located, and glanced into the bathroom. Sure enough, there was the towel rack on the floor.
The most amazing thing about all of this is that Milo, our amazing-doesn’t-ever-seem-to-need-sleep 3 month-old, slept through the entire commotion. And he only went down 20 minutes ago!
Towel racks have given me the same scare before, too! Maybe that’s an engineering problem waiting to be solved…
