Ok, so having a baby is a very humbling experience and back when I gave birth to my first child I realized that my dignity was something I would have to give up. All you mommies know what I'm talking about - I have a girl OB for a reason you know!!!
Anyhow, this is the story of one little boy who is now the big brother at our house. I was sitting on the couch , a place I frequently find myself now that I have a very hungry nursing baby boy! Well, anyhow I hear Anna coming down the hallway , Yelling , " MOMMY , look what Zander was drinking out of"! I didn't have to look, I knew. I had the feeling earlier that week that I SHOULD NOT keep "the squirt bottle" out on my bathroom counter top but that i should put it up high so that Zander didn't mistake it for a water bottle! OH but no i didn't not listen and now hear comes Anna just a screaming and by this point I'm crying! HEy I'm a bit emotional and this just disgusted me to no end. You all know what "the squirt bottle" is !
Ok, as if that wasn't enough pretty soon out wanders Zander from the bathroom and his hair looks really really really wet. ONLY IT's NOT! It's Lansinoh Breast Creme which is the greasiest grease you can imagine. He decided that he would make himself "handsome" -his words - not mine! Jared gave him a bath and when he got out I then put him back in the bath and washed his hair again , only this time with Dawn , afterall, it does take grease out of your way! That worked thankfully!!!
Ok, as if that wasn't all I could handle for one day from one busy little boy! After his bath Zander comes to sit by me on the couch and Yup you guessed it, I'm feeding the big boy Gavin! Zander catches a very brief glimpse of Gavin's "bottle" not a bottle and yells out "Ewe YUCK!!"
Like I said "dignity gone" none , nada, nothing! Bless your little heart my son, bless your heart! I'm sure in the days to come I will be able to add to this list !
Did I mention that I would gladly give all my dignity away for these little moments because I LOVE BEING A MOTHER!!! I love every word that comes out of their mouths and every smile on their faces as they hold and kiss and just stare in utter amazement at their new little brother. I wish these moments could last forever but then I would miss all those other moments !
