The other day I dropped my daughter off at the sitters and headed home with my son, now I know people probably think I am horrible for taking my daughter and leaving her with our loved and trusted sitter and spending the day with my son. The sitter had a heart cath done and can not lift the baby until she is released from the doctors care on the 15th - trust me I want him to get used to the sitters sounds and smell :o)
I leaned over to the passenger seat when we got home and grabbed my purse, the diaper bag and some odds and ends, opened the car door and stepped out with keys in my hand. I took a few steps towards the back of the car and realized OMG the baby - I almost forgot he was sleeping peacefully in the back seat sung in his car seat.
Then the other evening I got my daughter dinner made myself a plate and sat down - about 3 bites into the meal I realized why the baby was crying - I left his freshly made bottle on the kitchen table, poor baby was hungry and I was sidetracked once again by something. I wouldn't have forgotten the bottle if he had been awake when I dished out dinner - Mothers Intuition told me he'd be waking up shortly and would want to eat.
Thankfully I've never really forgotten him in the car for several hours or minutes for that fact and I always remember to feed him.
But my husband told me some good news the other day - they hired a 3rd sales man so hubby won't be working 11 hours days every day, he'll have some mornings off and sometimes evenings home with the family - I'm so excited to have my husband home in the evenings or even to have a day to spend with him.
