Blogworthy

Last year at this time, if I had had a blog, there would have been ramblings about stuff like preparing for a vacation in Germany and Austria. I’m sure there would have been some light whining about not being able to get wasted on German beer since I was like 2 months pregnant and all.

Oh, but this year, it’s a whole new ball game.

Blogworthy this year means talking about what happened at Target (and afterwards) today.

I strapped Ashton in the front carrier and proceeded to begin a hands free shopping trip at Target Greatland. Ooohh…so much stuff on the list today. It was going to be a longer trip than normal. I hadn’t been in 2 or 3 weeks and was having major Target withdrawl.

I was not quite halfway through the trip when I noticed that Ashton’s left sock was soaking wet. Curious, but I didn’t think much of it. Then I noticed that my pants were  a bit wet. Hmmm….I must not have put that diaper on quite right but buddy…..we are halfway there and you don’t seem too upset by it and to be honest, I can deal for a bit longer.

Next aisle: What is that smell?

A few steps further: Uh oh. It can’t be good.

By now, Ashton is deep alseep and basically snoring against my chest. What to do what to do what to do…..

Quick analysis to self:  Smells bad, kind of wet, contained save a wet sock and my damp pant leg….15 minutes from home and diaper bag in the car….hell, I’ve got 3 more things on the list, may as well just finish and check out.

Arrive home: H o l y  c r a p. I mean literally.
