The day we forgot the stroller. and the wrap. and the baby bjorn.

Last weekend was Brandon's guard weekend, meaning he worked Saturday and Sunday on base (next to the Portland airport).  Saturday was his first day, and also happened to be family day. He had to be at work at 7am, which is really early when you have a 5 month old who goes to sleep between 11pm and 1am.  So, in short, he took the car.  Then came to pick us up and take us to family day.

The last time he took the car, we forgot to take the stroller and wrap out so I could have something to do while he was gone (we have 1 vehicle).  There was no way we were going to make that mistake again.

Wrong.

We took the stroller out, but forgot to put it back in.

So, that meant a day of holding Amelia.  All day.  Meet and greet with new co-workers?  Holding Amelia.   Walking around base in knee high boots because I was tired of these "old" moms showing me up?  Holding Amelia.  You get the idea.

We definitely took turns, but it still was tiring.  On the way home we stopped to get some work out shorts for Brandon and somehow made our way into an ice cream shop.  I'll let the pictures do the talking:

Tired mommy.

Oh, that's cute. Kind of.

Not cute.

And....it's your turn. 

I really hope we learn from our mistakes.
