The day started out like any other day. A 7:00 am wake up call in the form of playful shrieks coming from the crib next to me. No need for an alarm anymore as my 5 month old is like clockwork. Unfortunately all that screaming most always wakes my 3 year old as well. So it's "mommy, I want cereal" and "Waaaaaa, change my diaper" all at the same time.
As the morning progressed I realized that among all the other things that I had to do that day, I didn't have any darn onions to cook dinner with. Now, anyone whose married to an Algerian knows that you can't cook a meal without onions.
So, after getting the kids dressed and ready, we hurried downstairs and into the car. Kids buckled in, "check"!, mom in the car and buckled in, "check"! I put the car in reverse and take off the emergency brake, "Why isn't the car moving", I say to myself. I look down and this is what I see.
I can't believe that I forgot to start the friggen car! Not only did I forget to start the car, I then realize that the keys are still sitting on the trunk where I left them as I buckled the kids into the car.
Another case of mommy brain or am I always this stupid. Stay tuned!
Hey there! So do you keep your infant's crib in your bedroom then?
ReplyDeleteYep, sure do. That's as close to co-sleeping as we get though. Plus the 3 year old would want to come in bed too and that's not happening.
