Ew. How UnMommy-like of You

In response to Crystal’s writing prompt, I will say this:

Two friends, crackers, cheese spread, wine. And baby was not napping.

Let’s see…he sat in his highchair too long (because we were sitting at the table) and ate too little (because I couldn’t make up my mind—fruit or veggies). He sat in a wet diaper, which he NEVER does when we’re home. He got into things I wouldn’t dream of letting him near because I was talking and only watched him out of the corner of my eye. I had only one hand on him during those times when I probably should have been holding him in a mommy death-grip. I forgot his nuk when I brought him up for his nap. And his toy box didn’t get opened once—he played with Pat’s shoes and Janet’s tattoo…oh, and the cord that was lying around from the video camera charger. I think I may have gotten a picture of him doing one of those things. We also put a bottle of wine on his highchair and thought it was too funny not to take a picture of. Please, you must agree…


And, you know, I had a good time. So did the little guy. I say…not sure he needs a toy box. Not sure at all. Thanks J & P!

P.S. My (fantastical) friends brought this wine over for me and we laughed (a little too heartily) but, as a novelty wine, we thought, "It's gonna suck." Just an FYI...it's really not bad.
