bad mommy of the month award

ok - so i was out running errands this morning with little miss k and baby j when baby j started doing the "i've got a dirty diaper" fussy squirm. so i went to change her and sure enough, her diaper was dirty and a little bit of #2 leaked out the sides onto her onsie and the inside of her pants. being lazy and thinking that i would just wait to change her clothes when we got home (and i could also just give her a proper bath then), i slapped on a new diaper and went on my merry way.

well i got home at noon, made lunch for little miss k, went and picked up t-man from school at 1 pm, came home to change baby j's diaper again, and feed baby j while reading little miss k stories for naptime. it is now 2 pm and i am typing this out while finishing baby j's feeding and she has pooped once again and she still needs a wardrobe change. well, i swear i am going to give her a bath right now and get her smelling like roses.

i am embarrassed to post this one, but it could be worse, right? she is a fed, clothed (albeit dirty clothes at times), and very smiley baby. dear readers, please tell me you have similar stories to help make me feel better????

So, I don't have a concrete dirty baby story to counter yours (when was Vi *not* dirty?), but I can tell you about the time when I was hugely preggo and I was at the post office and the woman behind the counter commented on the burrito schmutz on the side of my mouth... ;)

well i would argue that you were being a good (but messy mommy) - you were obviously taking care of your unborn child and feeding her well :)
