(Bad) Mom of the Year Award

 I think I'm winning for sure...this isn't a great picture, but it's one of those big thumbtack-looking things that attaches an anti-theft ink device thingy to clothes in the stores. Okay, not the best description ever, but you know what I mean. So today I put Isaiah in an outfit a friend gave us when he was born & which he is finally big enough for. We ran lots of errands today and did the regular naps and feedings and such. He fell asleep on the way home from the grocery store so I brought him in in the carseat and set it in the kitchen while I put the groceries away. After about 20 minutes he woke up screaming screaming screaming. I tried to feed him but he wouldn't eat. I sat him up and was patting his back when I noticed that thing in the picture was stuck in his shoulder! I took it right out (even though I watch enough hospital shows to know that if someone is impaled with something the last thing you ever want to do is remove the something) and luckily it hadn't really even broken through the skin, it was just stuck into the top layer I guess. So he has a nice red mark, but no broken skin or need for a rabies shot or anything. As a side note, it makes me wonder if the friends who gave us his outfit actually stole it...
