My friend's baby sister came out of the parents' bedroom playing with chocolate PASTIES!!!! OMG. The GS leader (whose house it was) was SO conservative (or at least we thought)... we were so shocked and the leader was so flustered! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1274119 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 14:16:29 +0000 cascademom 1274119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pee story: LO was really wriggly on the changing table. In order to get him to chill out, I let him run into the kitchen where Daddy was buck naked. DH is surprised that there's no diaper on him. I tell him what's up. Within a minute of this, LO looks at both of us and pees on the floor. This was the first of a couple times it's happened since. The other times have been before bath where it would have been better to pee in the tub. </p> <p>LO got into my work bag specially where I keep my sanitary napkins. He was walking around with one playing with it while at home. He also likes to play with our KY Jelly bottle as well (the water based one).</p> <p>While at my parents house, they have an Old English sheepdog whose 13 years old and a little skittish around kids. She puts up with LO despite his love of petting and watching her. He was climbing on the stairs from the basement to where she was. He's been told to pet her gently. When he gets to the top of the stairs, he sees and runs to pet her. Instead, he whaps her on the mouth where you can hear her jaw. I was so mortified. My mom took it in stride, but DH and I were embarrassed because he's generally good with her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1274112 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 14:14:47 +0000 yoursilverlining 1274112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO loves to give the cat treats. I knew LO had the bag of treats one day and I turned around for a few seconds, turned back and LO is double-fisting cat treats into her mouth! Haha, oops. Luckily she has outgrown the “eat everything” phase and just feeds the treats to the cat.</p> <p>On our first cross-country flight I realized midflight that I forgot to pack any extra clothes for LO in the carry-on. When I went to the bathroom to change LO’s diaper, I thought to myself “I hope she doesn’t pee”, which of course LO sensed and then pee’d ALL OVER her outfit in the .3 seconds between diapers. So I had to remove her clothes (1 piece PJ’s) and walk back up the aisle with a naked baby in a diaper and hold a naked baby for 3+ hours. LO was smiling and waving at everyone and I wanted to crawl in a hole and hide. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1274012 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 13:40:06 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1274012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oops wrong thread </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1274004 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 13:38:14 +0000 bhbee 1274004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: the first year we were married, I went and voted early in the day. my husband went later and apparently said upon seeing the registration log, "hey, look, there's another &lt;last name&gt; in this building!!". yes, honey, we sleep in the same bed :happy: </p> <p>my parenting saga for the week has been getting to the "is it poop or chocolate" phase. buying that advent calendar with chocolate maybe not the best idea??? it's a bit tricky because sometimes she wants me to wipe her hands because they are "sticky" and sometimes because they are "stinky" and from a 22-month-old those sound pretty similar . . . someone tell me sticking the hand down the pants is just a phase?? I should be happy that at least she doesn't like her hands dirty and will come tell me when they get that way (i.e. before she rubs poop on the couch) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1273931 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 13:06:43 +0000 mrs. wagon 1273931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Twine: haha! I do that kind of thing all the time! "Hey, that looks just like Wagon Sr.'s jacket! and shoes! and bag... oh, hey Wagon Sr."</p> <p>Yeah, I meant the second story... I don't eat my own poop. Often. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1273823 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 12:28:58 +0000 Adira 1273823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Xander was just learning to crawl (a.k.a., he could push himself backwards) and I wasn't paying attention. He cries out and I look up and the poor thing has pushed himself backwards under the couch and is stuck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1273804 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 12:24:11 +0000 Beyond2 1273804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: I'm pretty sure I've spent half of the last year with mine undone. I always forget! It's not too bad except the times that I leave it folded down too... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1273766 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 12:13:48 +0000 Mrs. Twine 1273766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lorelei was in the shower with me one day when she was around 6 months. I lay her on a towel (she wasn't super mobile) long enough to run and grab a diaper, and when I came back she had pooped and eaten the poop! I called poison control and they asked if it was her poop. I said yes, and they laughed at me and said she would be fine.</p> <p>Here's one that just makes ME look stupid. The other day I finally took the stock photos out of the photo slots on our diaper bag. I bought the bag used from a stranger (ebay). Behind the stock photos there was a card that had the name Lorelei (it was from a doctor's visit) and had stats and DOB. For about five minutes I was swooning over what a small world it was that the woman I bought the bag from had a Lorelei with the same birthday and same stats. Uh... I bet you can put together the rest. Yeah. *Hangs head in shame* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1273694 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 11:47:58 +0000 78h2o 1273694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: I'd definitely done that as well! I once even stepped out of office with my blouse unbuttoned after pumping!</p> <p>@pinkb: lol, both the pb and the blue buffalo stories cracked me up! sounds like something my lo would totally do... she lives to dump the water bowl all over herself and I'm sure she would eat the food if the dog left any there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1272595 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 20:19:57 +0000 Foodnerd81 1272595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pinkb: OMG-- the peanut butter covered LO is a hilarious image. Poor dogs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1272574 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 20:09:44 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1272574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hahaha oh no!! The no diaper made me laugh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1272471 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 19:35:40 +0000 pinkb 1272471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO kicked the dogs out of the way last night to eat their food. Saw the dogs standing there looking at me like... come on!! Yep pulled herself up to the bowl stand, one hand in each bowl munching on some salmon blue buffalo.</p> <p>She must have remember there is good stuff there because the night before I left each of the dogs a spoonful of peanut butter in their bowls. I left for work while everyone was napping and I guess LO found the peanut butter before the dogs. Since she had not had it before I am just glad she is not allergic! She was covered from head to toe and was licking it off her hands. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1272423 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 19:09:15 +0000 Foodnerd81 1272423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've left my apartment three times with my nursing tank unsnapped. I always had a cardigan over it a baby strapped to my chest, luckily. I like your pee story better :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1272326 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 18:16:48 +0000 Dandelion 1272326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-funny-or-embarassing-parenting-mishaps#post-1272291 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 17:54:51 +0000 78h2o 1272291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We gotta laugh at ourselves sometimes, right?</p> <p>I had two parenting mishaps today...<br /> #1: I turned my back on LO for 5 seconds and in that time she got the hamster-like water bottle out of the dog crate and was drinking from it like a bottle. Oops!<br /> #2: I got LO dressed to go see Santa in a rush. I put on her dress before her diaper because she was cold. She ran off, and when I caught up to her, I put on her tights while she was standing, totally forgetting her diaper (it was a long dress). So basically, I sent my daughter to see Santa commando. THANK YOU JESUS she did not pee all over him!!!! However, she did pee on the tile floor in Macy's. I was so perplexed why she was standing in a puddle of water and then it hit me that it was PEE. Omg. I yelled to my husband who had just walked away with the stroller/diaper bag that he needed to come back stat. He yelled back, "Why, what do you need?" and I just said, "I'll tell you in a sec." He was horrified. Thankfully, I had a diaper and spare outfit in the bag. I also had some napkins and was able to clean up the puddle. Yikes!!! LOL! </p>
