Early morning screwup

Damn, did I start the day in the bad books. I use my phone as an alarm clock and after messing around with it last night I had accidentally set it to the wrong time and as it turned out - to the worst possible time... it went off 5 minutes after my wife had got back into bed after the 5am feeding and woke the wee one up (he's still in our room btw).

As starts to the day go, this one could have gone better.

Anyway, after 10 minutes or so it became obvious, despite him not screaming the house down, he wasn't going to go back to sleep on his own. So up I got and settled him back down, which to be fair wasn't too bad, no more than 5 minutes of rocking and gently lowered him back into his moses basket - treating him like a piece of live ordnance. I considered going back to bed, it was another 45 minutes before my alarm would go off for real, but could sense the rage emanating from the far side of the bed and decided the last thing this day needed was alarm going off again - so discretion being the better part of valor I etreated off work early.

I don't need a crytal ball to know there's some apologising in my future.
