I would like to take my name out of contention for the "Mommy of the Year" award. I know Payton is only 5 weeks old, but yesterday I had my first experience as a bad mommy. Payton, myself and my mom went to the mall to kill some time and to spend some gift cards I received for Christmas. All was going well when I realized Payton needed a new diaper. Not a problem........ I changed her and realized I did not have another diaper in my bag. Oops. I did have some in my car so I wrapped her bottom in a burp cloth and prayed I could make it to my car and back before we had any issues.
Well...... I didn't. Ms. Payton had a wet incident about 2 seconds after I got the burp cloth on her. My mom held her as I run to the car to get a diaper. What kind of mother doesn't make sure her diaper bag has diapers in it? I mean it is called a diaper bag for goodness sake.
On a separate note. Derek and I have been the victim of ID theft. Someone has made fake checks and had a wonderful Christmas at our expense. I took care of everything with the bank and filed a police report while on maternity leave. Oh what fun!!! However, Derek called me today because he received a call from a collection agency regarding a bounced check on the frozen account. All the other fraudulent checks had been at Wal Mart, Macy's and Banana Republic. Now whoever has stolen Derek's ID purchased a $4,000.00 crystal rhinoceros. Seriously????? I didn't know you could purchase such an item. I wonder if it is life size?
