Children are the best birth control ever...

especially once they've moved from a crib to a regular bed. My son is now free to roam about the house if he wakes up in the middle of the night, and roam he does -- right into our bed. I don't mind him sleeping with us. He's pretty cuddly right now, so it's sweet to have this little guy snuggled up with you, except when you're trying to be intimate with your husband.

This past week has been kind of rough. There were two nights that would have culminated in sex, had Enzo not launched himself into our bed. The kid's timing is impeccable.

I really don't see how others with toddlers do it. They either have kids who spend the whole night in the correct bed, locked doors, a babysitter, or divine intervention.

Give Enzo a benedryl and a tablespoon of Dewar's. you'll get at least 6 solid hours to yourself.

Lock the door! When the fingers start wiggling under the door and he starts calling for Mommy and Daddy you have to speed up. It brings a whole new meaning to the word quickie!

Dom: if I did that and anyone found out, they'd probably take my child away!

JamDaddy: The locked door thing doesn't work so well for us. We don't get calls for Mommy and Daddy and fingers under the door. It's more like pounding on the door that sounds like it could dislodge the door from the hinges, and wailing like the Banshee. I'd rather not wake our neighbours. We have neighbours both above and below us, and the ones below have already come up once to complain about the stomping and running that Enzo does shaking the floor/ceiling.
