Around bedtime, start to yawn and act fussy. Rub your eyes, pull your ears, lay your head on your dad's shoulder. This type of behavior will produce a dramatic change in your parents' mood. Hope is not something they're used to experiencing now that you're here but you are seducing them with the tantalizing aroma of 'alone time' and you'll notice right away by the change in their demeanor. Now just reel those suckas in!
Your mom will be skipping around, giggling, thinking to herself: "Yay, some nice cozy alone time just cuddling up with my man. Maybe with a bowl of ice cream and some wine. We could watch a romantic comedy and cuddle."
Your dad will be grinning ear to ear and stretching out his chest while he hums "Pour Some Sugar On Me", thinking to himself: (this material is of an adult nature is for mature audiences 18 and older only).
Okay, our plan is working! Now we're in the crib. You need to do your best sleep impression. Try not to laugh as this is a total giveaway and you will be busted. Just think of something boring like your crib mobile or some other toy you've had for, like, a million years.
No peeking! If you peek and they see you, it ruins the whole entire fun part, which is yet to come ... So don't let them catch you doing this:
Okay, so you've done a good job of fake sleeping and your parents have tiptoed out of the room and then it sounds like they ran down the stairs really fast, then there were some slapping sounds and some laughing. Wait, not yet! Just a few minutes more so they really believe they're in the clear. Wait for it ...
Then I want you to unleash from the depths of your being. I know you've got it in you, I've seen you at Toys 'R Us. Just holler like someone canceled Sesame Street:
See? Wasn't that fun? Also fun to do when the babysitter is over and she is planning on having her boyfriend come over. Psych! In your face!

You are very smart about that.
