Shuggie (my mom) met me at my in-laws this weekend to bring my two-year-old, Sadie, to me after a little spend the night visit at Shuggie’s house. We were unloading Shuggie’s car and my husband asked me for a diaper. I grabbed one out of the bag over my shoulder and asked my mother for the wipes.
Shuggie: I ran out of the ones you sent but I had some that I keep in my car.
She reached around in her backseat and handed them to me.
Me: Um, Mom? These are Clorox wipes. Tell me you didn’t wipe her butt with these.
Shuggie: Uh-oh… I… oh. Huh. Yeaaah… I’m not…
Me: *terrified face*
She DID eventually produce an actual package of baby wipes but she never said whether or not the Clorox wipes had pulled double duty.

It's uncanny that you would tell this one today, because I did just that this morning. I grabbed a Clorox wipe and had it on my girl's face before I realized it wasn't the Wet One I meant to grab. Yikes! Close call! And then I wondered how many times I have done that and NOT caught myself. Upsetting.

LOL! Just reminds you that we are not alone!!

ouch! hmm…maybe this is one that's better to *not* know the TRUTH about? what happens at shuggie's…:)

Ooh! But when you weigh this against free baby-sitting, doesn't it seem like less of an issue? 😉
