FEEDING THE KIDS
It drives me crazy when we make food for the kids and then they don't eat it. That happens almost every day... thank goodness they eat soups well or I don't know what we would do!
GETTING TO SCHOOL/DAYCARE ON TIME
We've tried packing lunch the night before, but the kids don't eat it as well. Getting to school on time is stressful!
What are your least favorite parenting chores?

Brushing DD's teeth. It's a battle every time.
And now that I'm in my third trimester with #2, doing bathtime for DD is tough to do.

It use to be BEDTIME but now it's not so bad.
I think DOCTOR APPOINTMENTS are now the number one I don't want to do because LO knows it's bad news to be in a clean room where he has to be undressed and starts freaking out.

Diaper changes and changing the diaper genie! Barf.

Pumping (no explanation necessary)
Lugging around the car seat with a 20lb LO inside. So heavy.

@highwire: wait, your LO is still in the infant car seat??

@regberadaisy: Yeah. She hasn't outgrown it by height or weight yet...so we haven't taken the plunge on buying two convertible seats yet. We switch off on cars a ton and would definitely have to buy two seats instead of just keeping two bases for the same infant seat.

@mrbee: washing bottles/pump parts every day and getting out the door on time for work! It's easy for DH, he just grabs the baby and diaper bag. I also have to pack my lunch, my huge pumping bag, and my purse/work bag. All of those things have cold items in them so I have to throw it all together at the last minute while LO screams in his car seat. And then carry it all down a flight of stairs ... in heels. Stressful!!!

Feeding time, and watching my efforts wasted and thrown onto the floor!
Also......using toilet paper to clean the poop off of our cloth diapers!!! YUCK!! Which reminds me....I have a poopy diaper in the bathroom to tend to......I miss his constipated poop! So easy to clean!

Clipping nails. They're too soft to file, and I'm terrified of hurting him!
Separating the pockets and covers on our Bum Genius 4.0 dipes is pretty yucky too.

Yes, feeding solids is such a PITA. Toddlers eat SO slowly. When DH is around I make him do it. 
Runner up: cleaning no.2 out of the little potty. yuck.

@grizz: I started biting his nails because I was so freaked out. My mother suggested it and it is sooo much easier this way.
I hate bedtime. DH works 2nd shift so the whole routine is all mine every night and I'm over it
