Some of the stupid things I've done so far....

Probably the first thing that comes to mind was when my daughter was 2 weeks old. I had to get her ready for her doctor's appointment, and I wasn't all that healed yet myself. I was exhausted, still trying to get the hang of everything. So I was making up the day's bottles ahead of time, thinking I'm doing good. I was using the vented plastic bottles at the time. They have the 45 o head to it, and they have this little plastic thing that goes in the bottom of them. Its supposed to be good for reducing gas, spit up and colic, etc. I washed them all, put the formula in each one, and then put the water in each of them. Just like a little assembly line. I turned away for some reason, and when I looked back, formula was running down the sides of my cupboards..... Turns out, I had forgotten to put the plastic thing in the bottom of the bottles, and the formula poured out of every single one of them, all over the place! Awesome when you are trying to get everything ready to go out the door!!

That same day, I had put a load of laundry on. Before I left for her appointment, I went to put the laundry in the dryer. I pulled out a blanket, and there was all of this gel kind of stuff all over it. It was so weird! I shook as much of it as I could off, but there was so much of it!!! So I pulled a towel out of the washer, and it too was full of gel......as I shook it off, the gel fell off, and a diaper fell from it. Oh yeah. I washed a diaper. I couldn't believe it. I just laughed and laughed. Between the bottles and the washing of the diaper, I was having a good start to my day LOL.

And then there was the time that I was putting her in her car seat. The car seat has a handle that can be moved forward or backward. My husband had moved the handle back and I didn't notice. I picked her up, put her in the car. Took the seat out, put her in the cart at the grocery store, and took her out of the cart before I realized that the handle was pushed back, and she was tipped too far forward LOL The poor little thing! The people at the grocery store must have thought I was an idiot! And truth be told..... I've done this twice...... :S
