In our church we have three hours of meetings for everyone on Sunday, and each one is about an hour. We left our first meeting and headed for the second. About 10 minutes into that one, she pooped again. So I took her out again, changed her diaper, gave her a little more milk, and rather than disrupt class again, waited in the hall until it was over.
While I was waiting, I was joined by the Bishop’s wife. She was carrying a large container of Red Vines licorice and offered one to Baby Doll. Now my little girl loves red licorice and she was wearing a red dress. It didn’t seem like a bad idea until I remembered I was wearing a white blouse! Red juice oozed from her little hands as she happily sucked/chewed on the piece of licorice. I turned her this way and that to keep those little hands from grabbing my clothes.


After a failed attempt to clean her up, I sniffed that familiar aroma…I gathered up the diaper bag, wipe shreds, Baby Doll, and headed for the changing room for the third time. I changed her diaper, washed her smucky little fingers, and then mopped myself with a couple of wipes. Then I dug in her diaper bag until I found the remains of the bag of Cheerios. (The good ones, not the ones that ended up inside my sweetie’s shoes during Sacrament meeting.) I proceeded to down the entire bag! Not sugar, but desperate times call for desperate measures…Baby Doll didn’t mind…she’d found another wipe.

Oh dear...seriously, there are days when I wonder why I put myself through the sometimes torturous process of LDS church meetings!!! Do you remember when you went to church to relax and spiritually recharge??? Yeah, me either (c: I'm joking, but there are seriously days when I'm *convinced* that my children are plotting against me...(c:
ahahahah i can soooo visualize this day!!!!
Oh dear! LOL on this one. I remember days like this; thanks for sharing the smile for the day.
Enjoy the moments!
Oh I so have had those days... I was in sacrament one time and somebody (it couldn't have been me) put only 2 small bags of m&ms in my church bag. Well this is a problem since I have 3 kids. They noticed the M&Ms right during the sacrament prayer. My 3 girls began fighting in super loud voices over which 2 got the m&ms. I tried to confiscate them which only cause louder screams.... not one of my finer moments lol
Aww this was a funny/sweet post! What a cutie she is too and look at that face covered in food lol, still cute!
Ah the life and times of a mummy, I can relate :)
Thanks for visiting my blog earlier! Now following you... :)
You're good. I would have bailed at the second poopy diaper and gone home~!
