What's That Noise???

Last night about 9:30 Kaitlyn runs upstairs all upset.

Monte and I are pretty upset also.
This is the millionth time
we have told someone to go to bed!!
So in tears Kaitlyn explains
she can hear a noise downstairs.
"What noise?" asked Monte (who really doesn't care).
"It's a crinkly noise.
You can't hear it all the time,
but every few minutes it starts again."

By then Chandler comes upstairs and complains
that she is so scared she is trying to get in his bed.
Monte asks him about the noise.
He says he can hear it but doesn't care,
he just wants to go to sleep.
(It is nice to see Chandler is getting old enough
to know that is the answer his father wants).

So with this Monte tells her it is nothing and to go to bed.

A few minutes later Monte is in the family room
and she is still upset downstairs,
so he heads down to find out what is wrong with her.
Well half way down the stairs
he hears the noise too.
What is that?
But as soon as it starts it stops.
So he stands in the hall and realizes
it is coming from our unfinished bathroom
downstairs that we use as storage.
He carefully opens the door...

There's Connor with a box of the snappers.
You know those little fireworks
that you throw on the cement outside
and they make a popping noise.
Somewhere in that room he found
one of those boxes of 100
and had been having so much fun.
Monte scolded him while trying not to laugh.
He came back to bed
and explained no wonder Kaitlyn was scared!!

But we are learning a strange noise-
first find out where Connor is!!
