The Day I Realized I Had Wipes..


WARNING: If you are a mom and have had no sleep you may want to prepare yourself not to hate me because in this post I will mention how much sleep the child lets me get...

I have been a little absent minded these past few days doing stupid things like spelling my last name wrong (not just once but SIX different times) and other things like that... I wish I could blame it on lack of sleep but I can’t Carter sleeps through the night every night now with the shortest span being 7hrs and a lot of days goes he longer soo I cant really complain..  But he always seems to be needing something just when I sit down to eat (welcome to motherhood right?) I often try and think of ways to try and outsmart him so that I can eat... WELL today I went grocery shopping in 4 degree weather  yup just 4.. by the time I was done I was STARVING ok technically I wasn’t starving because I am not a victim of starvation but any who I was hungry and child was sleeping . I wanted to defeat him and eat my lunch in peace and then I remembered I had three dollars cash monies ( cash is important bc it doesn’t count when I spend it) with that thought I switched lanes to turn into a Taco Bell ( no shame!)  I got my little lunch and laughed to myself bc I was going to eat and he was going to sleep..WIN :)  I used to think I would have to use the carseat in the middle of the night ( SO GRATEFUL that I don’t) but the middle of the day would be great for this little lunchtime selfishness ..SO I start eating my lunch and it starts leaking sauce all over me I sigh and think well at least in the drive through they give you napkins.. Yeah NO. I searched the entire bag and found no napkin! As sauce runs down my jacket and my front seat I try not to be angry bc this was supposed to be my baby-free happy lunch .. THEN I see the diaper bag and smiled because I remembered... I have wipes! :) I relaxed and took out the wipes and wiped off my taco bell evidence while the child slept. Operation peaceful lunch was *mostly* a success..
