I just want to say Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there. Today I was thinking about Mother’s Day last year. We went to a really nice hotel for a brunch and Max pooped through his outfit and so I ran across the street and bought him a new one. I remember thinking..
Oh my goodness.
I should have packed another outfitÂ
I should have checked his diaper
Today I was thinking about how different is it being a mother now. First off, I usually do not have to worry about those yellow liquid poops anymore…oh now they are big and smelly. But I also thought about how much I have changed as a mother. I can usually pack exactly what I need for him for the day. I guess I just know my kid. Now I am sure as he gets older I will have to adjust to new things that he needs but for now they are pretty simple: Diapers, a Sippee Cup, Snacks, Wipes, A back up bottle with formula (plus I keep an extra one in the car), anti bacterial wipes and well that is about it. I always have a sweat shirt in the car for him and a hat. So I guess in conclusion, it is to say that I have learned a lot in the past year since the last Mother’s Day and it is nice to be a Mom. Plus the hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world..or at least Max’s world.
Happy Mother’s Day!

Rachel, you’re the best mommy in the world! I still forget to change Porgie’s diaper when we are out in public, so she pees through her diaper and soaks her outfit. It happens at least once per month. You would think that I would be an old pro after 2 years of motherhood, but not so much.
Happy mother’s day!

Explain to me about carrying the bottle–do you keep the powder and water separate or what? I wonder how others do this.
