Bad Day for Mommy

So, Sunday was a really bad day for this mommy and really the one who suffered was Karter. I can look back and smile about it now, but I felt like the worst Mom EVER!! I wouldn't share this, but I know that my friends and family can sypathize with me. So, to start out the day Dustin was sicker than a dog :( making him unable to help me. So here is a play by play of the bad mommy moves of the day:
Bad mommy move number one was when Karter had a blowout and it was all over my carpet plus my sweet little boy kept putting his hands in it lol. So, I am trying to get him cleaned up at least enough to make it to the tub and get it off his hands so that he doesn't stick them in his mouth, but I can't get into the bathroom, because Dustin is throwing up and we don't want to get sick too. Finally we get in there and poor baby is screaming, because the tub is cold and I can't hold him cause he is covered in poo.
Bad mommy mover number two: Karter and I were playing on the couch when he spit up all over my shirt, so I sat him down on the couch to take off my shirt. I stood up and turned around just in time to see him rolling himself off onto the floor. It was horrible, like slow motion I saw it happening and was unable to do anything to stop it. I felt helpless to save my poor child.
Ok so the last bad mommy move of the day was when I was clipping his nails and he jerked away and I cut one too short, luckily no blood but believe me did I felt bad when he squealed at me.
Although there were so many bad parts of the day, when we were laying there hanging out before bed he was all smiles and laughs it was ok that I was a bad mommy sometimes cause he still loved me, so luckily the day must not have been too traumatizing. Thank heavens that day is over and that I have people to help me.

Ms. Crafty

I haven't blogged in a while, but I have been busy trying to be more domestic. My garden is growing well and I am in the process of making a quiet book and a blanket for baby Karter. Who knew that it was in me, but it is!! (Pictures coming soon!!)

Shots

Yesterday was Karter's four month check up with the doctor and the poor baby had to get his vaccination shots. At his two month appointment I totally chickened out and had my sister-in-law take him in for me while I sat out in the waiting room. This time Dustin went with me and I thought I would be brave and stay there to comfort my son, big mistake. I looked like such a baby, because the second they did it and he let out that scream of pain I was in tears. What a wimp, but I can't handle seeing my baby in pain. It didn't last long and he was over it, but it broke my heart. He is such a brave little boy and quite the trooper, because this morning we went and had his four month pics and family pics taken and he was happy and smiling for a good majority of the time. But after that he was tired and just didn't feel well so he spent the rest of the day sleeping it off.

Mommy's big boy

My big boy finally sleeping in his crib and helping his dad feed him by holding the bottle. We really have grown up tons. It was such an accomplishment to get to this stage.

Handsom Little Man

Isn't Karter just the cutest in his little easter outfit! I looked everywhere for something cute and I finally decided on this little preppy outfit from The Children's Place and he is so handsome!!

Easter with the cousins

For Easter weekend the rest of the Wilkins crew came from Logan to spend the time with family. Kellon was playing while McCrae dyed eggs and he had such a good time. He is such a funny kid, because he loves to pose for pictures as well as take them, everytime he would take a picture of someone he would say "big smiles." He also went on an Easter egg hunt while they were here in Vernal, and after he found each egg he had to open it and discover what was inside.

Busy Bee

Karter's New Exer-Saucer! We have a very active or spirited little boy and are constantly having to look for activities to keep him busy. So, this was a great idea, because there is so much to do and he really loves to push the buttons and here the animal sounds and music.

Easter Baskets!!!

The easter bunny had to come early this year, so the boys got their easter baskets on conference Sunday morning, because Dustin has to work on easter this year. It was fun to be able to do this for all of my boys. Even Roo got an easter duck!!!

Karter's Lullaby Seahorse

My good friend Tara gave me a tip about this little seahorse and it is WONDERFUL!!! Karter loves it and can watch it before naps or just to entertain himself in the car seat or of course, the bouncy chair.

Rice Cereal!!

Karter got to try some of that good rice cereal stuff!! He just tried a little that I mixed with breast milk and it actually went pretty good. He was a little weirded out by the spoon, but after a little while he did pretty good, but mostly he was sucking it off the spoon. It was fun times!

Thank the heavens for the In-Laws!!

Thanks to my husbands kick but parents we have a garden this year and lets cross our fingers it is going to grow and produce edible food!! Holly helped me plant a bunch of stuff yesterday and Stuart helped Dustin with the fence to keep those nasty dogs out. I am so excited to see where this venture takes us, the hope is a major save in money!!
