not buying, not interested, just go away...

we have a light sleeper on our hands. *sigh*  i thought that maybe our little one would grow out of it, but alas he has not. so when he's asleep we tend to tip toe and whisper and hardly move a muscle. it's horrible, i know. i should be vacuuming or doing something loud to get him used to noise, right? more like yeah right. when he's asleep i will do just about anything to keep it that way. i don't even let matt use the front door, which is adjacent to his bedroom, because the opening and closing of the door disturbs his slumber. call me obsessed, i don't care. i really appreciate nap time.

i like nap time so much that i've recently posted a very polite sign, complete with exclamations, asking the extremely large group of door to door salesmen to not ring the doorbell or knock. hopefully they'll read it, comply, turn around and walk away. my fingers are crossed.

these sign ideas did cross my mind: "GO AWAY", "I DON'T WANT WHAT YOU'RE SELLING", "RING BELL AND DIE. SERIOUSLY!" however, in the end i used the baby to my advantage hoping to tug on the heartstrings of all those coming to our door. ...that and i really didn't want them to ring and run, leave a flaming pile of poo, or egg our house in the middle of the night.
