Hair flowers...Yikes!

What is the deal with these gigantic flowers that people are putting on their newborn baby girls? The flowers I have seen lately for photo-ops are bigger than the baby's head. Are moms trying to outdo each other by trying to see who can get the biggest flower? What ever happened to the tiny bow with the corn syrup? That's what my baby wore. And the headbands are getting thicker and thicker. I personally think the smaller the better, like the silky bands that are 1.99 on the endcap at Walmart. Pretty soon we see not just the giant flower, but the plant that goes with it. "Oh look at your newborn baby, how cute. Where did you get that flowering cactus plant bow? That is sooo cute!" Too bad the baby has no say in all this.

I got stuck!

I am the mom of all moms. Super, duper mom. You don't even know me, I am somewhat of a stranger here. But really, you should have seen me at the grocery store when I got my dang car cart stuck in the bathroom! I have my 3-year-old who won't go to the store without one of those littletike look-a-likes car grocery cart. These things are so crazy dirty, it makes me nervous. I need a canister of wipes to clean it off. So I have my 3 year old with me and my infant. She's 12 months, but small. She's still in her infant seat probably until she's like 2 because she only weighs 17 lbs. Out of conveniece, poor baby just stays in the infant carrier when I'm grocery shopping. At least she can see my face. So, I'm forced to drink as much water as possible due to kidney stone scares. So I get to the store and I have to pee real bad. I don't want to leave my two babies in the cart alone outside the bathroom at the store so I wegde the dang cart into the small bathroom. I swear it took up the whole thing. Too bad someone came in while I was in the stall to use the bathroom and my car cart was in the way; they had to leave. Sorry, I'm a mom. K, so as I was leaving the bathroom I tried to push the cart out, but the thing is so long it gets stuck between the doorway and the wall outside of the bathroom! I'm pretty sure to get it out of there I made some dents/marks on the wall trying to manuver my way out! I started the hot sweats, mostly from embarrasment, then I thought, this is hilirious. I just love it! Run from me, I can't steer the thing due to crappy wheels, of which the front ones don't even touch the ground. The crazy things we do for our kids.
