How did he do it?

3 days ago, the weather station in baby A's room set off its alarm at 6am. The next day, it happened again. Somehow, baby A had managed to activate the alarm while playing with it. How he did it, I have no idea. We have the weather station (similar to this one) for years and I never bother with the alarm function. Seb finally figured out how to deactivate the alarm function yesterday night and he put it by his bedside this night as a precaution. He was the one who went into baby A's room each morning to switch off the alarm.

And this morning at 12am, we heard another alarm. Seb woke up but could not find the source. This morning, my mum told me that it was the alarm from the sliding world time calculator. It was a corporate gift from my previous company and it was always on the computer table. Yesterday, baby A played with it. Somehow, he set on the alarm function and by default, the alarm went off at 12am. My mum said she had to put the calculator under her pillow cos she did not know how to turn it off. I took 5 minutes this morning to figure out how to deactivate the alarm function. This was something that I never use.

Baby A had already played with phones and laptops and computers and had sometimes given us trouble. With the phone, he had called Seb's colleagues and my brother. He woke up my brother at 2am Singapore time and I got an email from Tim the next day. Oops. I deleted the neighbourhood police number from the phone in any case. With the computers, he had done things that we never knew existed. Magnifying the screen of Seb's laptop and giving his dad a hard time looking for his icons and putting the default settings back.

I hope that this night, we won't be awaken by any alarm any more.

Hey Ash, i had received two calls and a warning letter from the central police station last year. Apparently, my dotter had used the emergency code on the phone to make the call out and I wasnt even awared or it. Sigh...I would have had ended up in jail for the love of my kids..

hi MooHan,
that is so scary. Your girl is so smart. Next time if there is really an emergency, maybe the police won't respond anymore. actually, I think baby A may had already done that cos once I saw "Police" in the recent dialed numbers. i just hope that we took the phone from him before it was answered.

Hi KC,
Yeah, what a choice. Your CEO must be sleeping then.
We must really put these things out of reach of our kids.
