Reverse thankful list...

This morning I am really thankful that most days are not like today. I'm thankful that on most days...

34. We do not wake up 6 times in the middle of the night.
35. The Brimeister does not puke all over herself and the carseat requiring a bath at 7:30 am.
36. I don't have to figure out how to take a drippy puky carseat apart and wash the puky drippy padding.
37. The electricity does not go out.
38. The cable TV does not go out.
39. The internet works.
40. I don't have to call the cable company and wait on hold with a fussy baby.
41. I don't have to call the pediatrician's office about a sick child.
42. We don't have to make an emergency run to Wal-Mart for Pedialyte.

But most of all I'm thankful for the fact that until today ...

43. I've never had to take a rectal temperature!

Being a mom is quite an experience. Whew! Is this day over yet?!?!

After my first experience with a NizASTY diaper explosion all over the car seat which required: removing the entire seat from the car, 12 curse words while removing the cover AND the padding, a quick shower to remove the disgustingness that got all over me during the process, 15 curse words to replace the cover and padding after laundering ... and then an emergency trip to Target for a whole new car seat because the stupid things never fit back on right ... I found this blessing of a heaven sent product!!

It's not cheap ~ but it is A) BEAUTIFUL, B)Comfy for Noodle & C)Incredably easy to remove for laundering - seriously - no removing straps or anything, just UNSNAP and you are done.

Sorry about the sikkies ~ but the Bubblegum flavored Pedialyte is pretty good (And the store brand lasts for up to a week in the fridge!)
