Mommy Mess Up
I am now the worst mommy ever! Lillian’s fingernails grow like weeds and my normal method of peeling them off just isn’t cutting it. So I bought some baby nail clippers…and I don’t think they’re meant for babies this little. I made my first clip on her thumb and seconds later, Lily starts crying. Oh my God, I cut her skin! A big chunk of skin is hanging off….lots of blood starts gushing out. I start crying. Lily stops crying, and is like, “Whatev.” Okay, crisis manageable and she won’t hate me forever…I hope! I broke out our baby first aid kit for the first time and it was pointless – why wouldn’t they include baby sized band-aids? Luckily, I had smaller ones in a regular band-aid box. It’s very hard to appropriately apply a band-aid to a squirmy infant who likes to keep her thumb stuck in between her fingers. While I was wrangling the thumb and Band-aid, she starts spitting up a whole bunch! She thinks this scene is hilarious and has the goofiest smile the entire time! I’m still waiting for child services to show up at the door.
