Rustling plastic bags s-l-o-w-l-y doesn’t make you quiet. It makes you annoying and it makes you WAKE UP THE BABY!
How many times do you need to walk into our room before you realize that the centre passage way creaks? For Pete’s sake, walk along the side of the room, like this, see? Otherwise you’ll WAKE UP THE BABY!
Of course you can brush your teeth. What do you think I am, a sleep tyrant?
Umm, don’t leave the water running it’s ummm, bad for the environment and, um, don’t flush the toilet it’s yellow, let it mellow… all for the environment, right? Besides, all that commotion on the other side of the hall will WAKE UP THE BABY!
Have you ever noticed that your “whisper” isn’t as much a “whisper” as just low talking? Do you want to practise how to whisper? I know you wouldn’t want your current pathetic excuse of a whisper to WAKE UP THE BABY!
Why are you clearing your throat like that?
Stop it.
It's not just kids: "DYLAN! Stop typing so loudly!" "Can the hammering wait?" "No, now would not be a good time to vacuum."
and I most certainly was talking about Dickson, poor sap.
Franklin is fine. He's so loud on a constant basis that it just becomes white noise. Unfortunately for Dix, he's only loud intermittently...
so funny, I actually had to leave a fan running in our son's room for months to create "white noise"...we used to creep around the house like a couple of teenagers trying to sneak out and he would STILL wake up! It's a short phase at least, good luck!
5 years on I'm still doing it! Really, Phaedra needs to sleep till 9:30, it's not that *I* need her to sleep till 9:30! Ok, maybe it is, but it sure makes my day nicer to have an hour of peace in the morning.

Hehahahahahaaaa.
Exactly.
If I may offer a suggestion? Humidifier. I know you don't need the humidity (neither do we right now) but the white noise does wonders for drowning out the goings-on of other wee humans that think it's a great time for taking the noisy play-stroller for a wander back and forth down the lino-ed hall just outside the baby's room.
(I find that leaving the humidifier fan running on it's side helps cool the room on hot days -OH! Plus it drowns out the sound of the neighbors' kids' Fake Crying For The Sake Of Attention when the window is open, too.)
