I locked myself out today - with Max inside!

I had the scariest thing happen this morning! A cat showed up in our driveway and my two dogs started going ballistic. After a few minutes of barking, I thought if I opened up the door I'd be able to shoo the cat away so they would calm down. So I opened the front door just a crack and my little bichon Daisy somehow scooted around my legs and off our property after the cat! Afraid she'd get hit by a car or go missing, I shut the front door and took off after her (Max was playing quietly and didn't really notice all this).
When I get back with the dog, the door had locked behind me! I tried the other doors and they were all locked. Max still hadn't noticed...I could see the back of his head from the window. I went and looked for our spare key in the little out building but couldn't find it (my husband says it is there)...so I had to go back and knock on the window. Max gets up and starts making faces, thinking it is hilarious that mommy is outside. After a minute or two he "got it" and came around and managed to open up the door! Thank God! I would have been breaking a window with a rock before long! Scary! Max saved the day! Oh yeah and if you didn't see the other post....looks like I can blame it all on pregnancy brain because I'm KU and due in April!

Re: I locked myself out today - with Max inside!
I'd be screwed if this happened to me - we have a safety thing on our front door because we live on a busy street and I do NOT want DS to be able to get outside.
Glad it worked out for you, though! Max to the rescue!
Also, I don't think I congratulated you properly in that other thread, so here's a big CONGRATS MAMA! I am so happy for you guys!
And congrats on your big news!!!
