Dude!

you know when you have to go to the bathroom and you think, "the baby will be perfectly fine in this room while i'm gone. it is baby proofed. and his big sister is here with him and will let me know if he does anything too crazy." so you just go ahead and go.

then you hear the big sister in her bedroom. she isn't with the baby anymore. and you think, "no biggie, i'm almost done. i'm sure he's just fine. after all, what can he get into?"

then you notice that it is really quiet in the living room where the baby is. really quiet. and your mommy alarm goes, "uh oh!"

and you hightail it out of the bathroom to find this:
this is when you realize that there was one portion of the living room that you did not baby proof. ooops! (damn plants!)
and you (grab the camera) say, "no-no-no! don't eat dirt buddy!! yucky!"

and he looks at you like, "huh? wha???" (apparently dirt isn't all that bad?)

and you say, "dude! you can't be trying to tell me we don't feed you enough! because i'm pretty sure we do!" in an oh so sarcastic mommy voice.

and that's when you realize he's too little to get sarcasm......
awwwww, man! don't cry buddy.....
i'd kiss you but dude, you got potting soil all over your face!

just kidding!! i would so still kiss that cute little mug, but he wanted none of that. i took his plant and dirt away and broke his seven month old heart. he thinks i suck right now.

yeah, i'm good like that. i'm just rockin' the good mommy skills! ;)
