Packing Tracking
Brennon is getting teeth. I suppose that is why he has been fussy recently. He is also crawling really fast now. I think though because he is crawling his desire to stand up has diminished a little. It is like, why walk? This weekend I am going to lower his crib. He is now pulling himself up enough to where he could probably get out of the crib. We don't want him to fall. He is getting very squirmy and wants to be moving all of the time. This summer will be baby gate time where we put gates on the stairs and around our patio. I think the goal is just to contain him.
I was at Best Buy the other day and noticed they have a GPS tracking device called the kid tracker. When Brennon is older we will stick one on him somewhere. That way we will all know where he is in case he gets lost. I wonder about all that. Say for instance we also give him a two way communicator, where we can always hear and see what he is doing, even when he is not there. Then if we catch him doing something bad we can talk to him as well. I wonder if that is too intrusive? Technology is definitely going to change the way parents do their parenting. Kids will have freedom again, but they will be watched by big father.
It is kind of cool to be able to check up on the goings on when you are not there. For instance our cameras record all of the activity going on in our front porch and backyard. The other day I was watching the last week in review and the UPS guy walks to the door with a package for us. As he approached the door he took the package and threw it like a frisbee at the front door and quickly pressed the doorbell and ran. I couldn't believe it how it got so much air. I guess cause it was a pretty light package, but still he should have placed it on the ground. I suppose I should have saved that video and notified UPS, but there was no damage to the contents. If there was our cameras would have been the evidence. I wonder what would happen if you put a kid tracker on a package? Could you tell how fast it is flying? Hmm.. more tests...
