Truthful Thursday

Ok, yes, Truthful Tuesday sounds better because "truthful" doesn't have the "th" that Thursday needs, but I need a post for today (and now tonight), not next week. I can't think that far ahead right now.

Truth: Swim diapers do their job. Sort of. Until you have to change poop diaper in bathroom changing table. Toddler poop, water, won't go any further---Mortifying Mess!

Truth: You can spill a plate full of cut-up breakfast taco, your toddler can then spill half a pint of orange juice down his jammies, and you will survive past 8:30 am. You'll make it to an afternoon Target trip where toddler fails to hold your coveted salty pretzel with two hands and half breaks, falling beneath the Icee machine, and then, you'll make to bedtime, even without a glass or three of wine.

Truth: Sometimes you can heal the world by dropping whatever it is you're doing to sit right down on the kitchen floor and hold an upset toddler in your lap.

Truth: Toddler clothing does not need skulls. (Ok, maybe that's not a truth really, just my opinion.)

Truth: Letting your toddler play with your phone results in the following in your photo stream:

Truth: Letting toddler play with phone will result in pulling said phone apart to dry up all the baby spit and then find you no longer have a working phone!

Truth: Absolutely agree about no skulls on baby clothes or boy clothes period.

Amen, Sista, to everything! BTW, we are going to Target this morning and I am so getting a salty pretzel and an Icee now that you've put it on my mind!! :)

I agree 100% to no skulls on toddler clothing. And I'm not a huge fan of babies in two piece swimsuits either...

WHY OH WHY would anyone put skulls on baby anything? Don't get me started. On that or the mess that is a dirty swim diaper.

And I am with Elizabeth on no bikinis on baby girls :)

Well that is a gorgeous picture! He's very talented! And you're sure you can get by without wine??? I'm not convinced...

I agree no skulls for toddler shirts! And isn't amazing how a day can start so early and so much bad stuff happens and it's only 8am!? Whoa makes for a long day!

I'm thinking that there is no need for anyone to have skulls on the clothing unless it's Halloween. Then it is perfectly acceptable.
